If you scroll through our Hacksaw Gaming page, you’ll see that there are not many slot themes the developer hasn’t used before, but one, until now, that has not graced one of their titles is Asian anime. Well, they’re ticking it off today, as we have ourselves yet another anime princess similar to who you might have seen in Pragmatic Play’s Starlight Princess slot series. In fact, there are a couple of other similarities in play here, as the name Cloud Princess isn’t far off, and this slot also uses a 6×5 reel configuration and a scatter pays mechanic. As for the maximum win, this one stands at a lower 10,000x the stake, while its RTP is 96.24%.
With scatter pays usually comes a cascading reels mechanic, and that’s the case again on Cloud Princess. However, while having the chance to land a chain reaction of wins on a single spin is nice, Hacksaw has also thrown win multipliers into the mix to add even more winning potential. These come via three different multiplier symbols that apply their values to payouts and increase in size after each win. The best of these is the Epic Multiplier, which can land with multiplier values of up to 100x and will double its value after each consecutive cascade. Those symbols also play their part in two bonus games, with the best of them having a progressive win multiplier.
Whether you’re an anime fan or not, Cloud Princess is a slot I’m sure will appeal to many of you. If you’re on the fence about playing it for real money, we have you covered via the free-to-play slot demo below.

Theme, stakes, pays & symbols
I mentioned Pragmatic Play and some of their slots, which are similar in theme, looks, and gameplay to Cloud Princess in the introduction, so check out Starlight Princess, Starlight Princess 1000, and Starlight Christmas if you enjoy what you see in today’s review. Other developers have used a similar theme in the past, too, such as NetEnt with its Koi Princess slot and Skywind with Celestial Beauty, but before you jump into anime heaven with all our recommendations, stick around as we venture to the potential wins and bonus features offered by Cloud Princess, starting with the payouts.
The Crown is the slot’s most profitable symbol, as it has a 400x the stake return when 19 or more land anywhere in view. The Perfume and Hand Fan both reward up to 300x, and the Cup of Tea and Necklace have a maximum return of 200x. All of the low-paying Green, Red, Blue, Purple, and Yellow Gems will reward up to 50x the stake when they land in winning combinations.
Regarding wagers on Cloud Princess, Hacksaw has ensured that players of all budgets can try out the game for real money if they wish. The minimum entry point starts at a budget-friendly €0.10 a spin, and high-rollers have the option to spend up to €100 a press.
Base Game & Modifiers
Forming the foundations of the Cloud Princess slot is a 6×5 gaming grid that utilises a scatter pays mechanic to calculate wins. Winning combinations are formed when 8 or more matching symbols appear in any position on the reels.
Cascades & Win Multipliers
Once winning combinations have been calculated and paid, the symbols involved all vanish into thin air, and more topple into the reels from above. If further combinations are created as a result, the process repeats.
Three types of multiplier symbols can also affect how much you win as the cascades take place:
- Normal Multiplier Symbols: These land on the reels with a value of 2x, 3x, or 4x, and their value increases by 1x for each winning cascade.
- Super Multiplier Symbols: These land with a ‘?’ on them, and once activated, they will reveal a multiplier value of 5x, 10x, 15x, or 20x. Their value also increases by 2x after every winning cascade.
- Epic Multiplier Symbols: The multipliers of these symbols will double after every winning cascade and will initially land, holding a value of 5x, 10x, 50x, or 100x.
If there has been at least one cascade on a spin with multiplier symbols present, the combined value of all multiplier symbols is added together and applied to any wins on the spin.
Cloud Princess slot bonus features
Those multiplier symbols carry over into the two bonus games you can trigger on Cloud Princess, although they are now even more lucrative when they land. Want to find out more? Let’s dig into the details below.
Cloud Surge Free Spins
This variation of the free spins bonus will trigger when four or more scatter symbols appear as a result of a base game spin. You receive an initial 10 free spins but will get an additional 2 or 4 each time 2 or 3 scatter symbols land, respectively. On each spin, wins are now collected above the reels rather than paying out as they come in. At the end of the spin, any multipliers on the reels are added and applied to the total win.
Divine Boost Free Spins
In return for 4 scatter symbols, you again receive 10 free spins. During this free spins bonus, multiplier values are collected into a progressive total win multiplier to the side of the reels. It does not reset between spins, and its value applies to all future payouts. Like the first bonus game, you’ll receive an additional 2 or 4 free spins each time 2 or 3 scatter symbols land on the reels.
Bonus Buy
Unsurprisingly, Hacksaw Gaming has added a few bonus buy options for players to consider:
- BonusHunt FeatureSpins: Costing 3x the current stake, this option gives you spins with 5 times the chance of triggering one of the free spins bonus games.
- Heavenly FeatureSpins: For 50x, each spin is guaranteed to produce at least one win and have a multiplier symbol.
- Cloud Surge: 100x the stake buys the Cloud Surge free spins bonus game outright.
- Divine Boost: 200x gets you the Divine Boost free spins bonus.
Pros
- Some good features, particularly the different multiplier symbols and the two free spins bonus games.
- A grid slot with multipliers. Win, win, I'd say.
- Good RTP when the upper limit is being used.
Cons
- There are lots of similarities with Pragmatic Play’s Starlight Princess.
Cloud Princess Slot Review Final Thoughts
It’s clear that Hacksaw Gaming has taken quite a bit of inspiration from Pragmatic Play’s Starlight Princess for Cloud Princess, and not just in terms of its theme, but they have added their own twist with the different types of multiplier symbols and the free spins bonus games. A mix of those symbols, especially the epic multipliers that double with each cascade, has the potential to boost regular payouts into mammoth ones. I had a blast playing the game, and I believe many of you will, too, so why not check out the demo?
