Wild Symbol

This symbol can only land in the Clash and Conquest bonus games, where it enables more wins by substituting for other paying symbols. It will not substitute for higher paying symbols when determining whether a duel is triggered.

Clans

There are four different clans within this slot, where these being the red clan, blue clan, green clan and yellow clan. Each clan has an associated clan leader and clan weapon symbol, where within the bonus game you can also see an associated clan banner.

Duel

During the spins you can land VS symbols on the reels 2, 3 and 4, and if you land a VS symbol between two clan leaders of different clans, the Duel feature is activated. The two different clan leaders will be awarded one of the multipliers 1X, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, 10X, 15X, 20X, 25X, 50X or 100X.

When this duel ends, the winning clan leader's symbol will replace the losing clan's symbols. This will either replace the losing clan's low symbols, high symbols or both low and high symbols. The VS symbol will always be replaced by the winning clan leader’s symbol. There can only be one duel per spin and the winning clan leader multiplier will then be applied to all wins made with symbols belonging to this gang.

Bonus Games

There are two different bonus games that you can take part in within this slot, namely the Clash bonus game and the Conquest bonus game.

Clash

If you land 3 clash scatter symbols at the same time, the clash bonus game will be activated. This bonus game is divided into two different phases, namely collect and clash phase. You will be welcomed with 3 spins, and here you can land empty, VS or Clan multiplier symbols. Each time you land VS or Clan multiplier symbols, the number of spins will be reset to 3 again. You will only be able to land VS symbols on reel 3 and the total amount collected will be displayed above the reels.

The clan multipliers can land with values of 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, 10X, 15X, 20X, 25X, 50X and 100X, where they only can land on the reels 1, 2, 4 and 5. Each reel will correspond to the different clans, whereby their multipliers start with 1X and then increase with the multipliers that land on the reel. You can also land epic clan multiplier symbols on reel 3, where it will multiply all clan multipliers by 2X.

When you run out of spins, you will enter the clash phase, where the number of spins you receive is based on the number of VS symbols you have accumulated.

Warrior Ways Slot Conclusion

Hacksaw Gaming really has a skillful ability to shift between the mostly tranquil themed slots surrounded by fruits and smiling creatures, to sometimes being slots with darker and more mood enhancing slots. We've recently taken part of a couple of exceptional slots like The Bowery Boys and Wanted Dead or a Wild, where their interesting themes have been accompanied with a gigantic array of pulse-pounding features. This slot that we've now had the chance to take part of follows in the same footsteps as those two recently mentioned slots, where the players certainly could be up for a treat. It's a Japan-inspired futuristic city that we've arrived at, where its distinctive music and darker background quickly puts players in a good mood. Like the Nitropolis series, there are big battles going on between the city's various gangs, and with the help of the Duel feature, you'll feel really present.

The base game spins, with the help of the Duel feature and wild symbols, can occasionally deliver some decent wins, but the paying symbols give very poor payouts on their own and they usually need a boost from either of these two to provide good wins. It is within the bonus games, however, that the real action kicks off. There you can activate a clash bonus game, which consists of two phases, the first of which will build up the player's conditions. There you can create high clan multipliers and collect VS symbols. This pre-phase can provide incredibly good conditions to win big when the clash phase then starts, where players are guaranteed to take part in the Duel feature on every spin that is made. This Duel feature is one that you were introduced to within the Wanted Dead or a Wild slot, where the gunslinging cowboys this time have been replaced with sword dueling samurai. What makes these duels very festive, is that the winning clan will replace all or most of the lost clan's symbols. This gives the opportunity to cover larger parts of the reels with the same symbol type very quickly and with the various associated multipliers, it can be an entertaining show to take part in.

If you activate the conquest bonus game, then you instead get to take part in free spins, where you successively can eliminate the different clans by winning battles. As a result, towards the end you can usually see the bigger wins trickle in. The game has been created with many different RTPs, but assuming the highest 96.33% by default is used, it's within a good size. The game has a max win size that is often seen in slots from this game provider, which is also a good size. It's a slot that has a high volatility, where you can see your balance vary quickly in size, but its exciting theme coincides well with its incredibly entertaining features. The Duel feature was quickly loved by players when it was first introduced and it's great to see it return again, where small but essential changes have been made to it to further optimize the gaming experience.

Warrior Ways is a slot from Hacksaw gaming where we get to enjoy a solid setup of features, whereby the many duels between the samurai can generate explosive wins.
