Slot Review: Samurai 777

Most Westerners are only familiar with the world of the Samurai by way of a century’s worth of Hollywood pictures about these mythical warriors. As is the case with virtually any topic getting the cinematic treatment, not everything you have seen or heard is true! The code of the samurai is complex, and is dependent upon the conjoined virtues of honor and loyalty. It could be either good or bad news that nobody will have to stretch their knowledge of global cultures too far to play Samurai 777, the online slot game from Microgaming. This game is about as serious a look at Japanese culture as a Disney cartoon!

Samurai 777 is a three-reel, three-payline online slot game. Coin values range from twenty-five cents to five dollars, with max coins of three. That means that the highest bet possible in this game is fifteen dollars. The top jackpot is six thousand coins, or thirty thousand dollars. The reels are filled with single, double, and triple BAR symbols, along with weapons used by samurai. The icon of the number seven is wild, which means that it can stand in for any other image on the reels in a winning combination.

We’d rank Samurai 777 as a middle-of-the-road online slot game. The game is nothing spectacular, although it is a solid delivery from Microgaming, which is known for the excellence of its titles. The jackpot is middling, but the wagers are low. The theme is one that is very popular with slots players as well. If you are a fan of ancient Japanese culture, you may just want to try your luck with this “Samurai.”
