Game Overview

I think it would be a fair statement to say that sushi is an acquired taste, and whilst citizens of many countries sit themselves down daily at the local sushi counter, picking their favourite snacks from the conveyor belt, there are others who can only imagine eating a piece of fish if its been fried and is accompanied by a large portion of chips. Luckily, in the Pragmatic Play slot Running Sushi, your personal eating habits won’t matter too much, as it’s only your big win appetite you’ll be craving to satisfy. Intros aside, then, it’s time for some stats. Running Sushi is a 5-reel slot with 1,024 ways to win, an RTP of 96%, and a maximum win of 3,000x bet.

Every online slot has its headline feature, and in Running Sushi, it is the multiplier belt that runs along the bottom of the reels. This is active in the base game and bonus round and landing special symbols on reels 1, 3, and 5 in the base, which will award all multipliers in view. Once the free spins are activated, a global multiplier also comes into play where all multipliers that land are stored. If the Take All scatters then land in view, the total value of that pot will be awarded as a prize.

Has the theme of this slot left you feeling a little peckish? Or are you only interested in the wins? Whatever the case, you can enjoy some free spins on our Running Sushi demo slot, available to play below.

Running Sushi Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

There are online slots themed upon pretty much everything you can think of, granted some more than others, but food is a popular go-to genre for many game providers, and Pragmatic Play and their partners are no exception. Those whose stomachs are still rumbling but don’t fancy a bite of Running Sushi should try out more titles in this niche from the provider, such as the unique Pizza Pizza Pizza slot, Big Burger Load it up with Xtra Cheese and for those with a sweeter tooth, Wildies.

It’s that time of the review when we check in on the pays section and see what potential winnings could be coming your way. First of all, at the top of the paytable, we have the Chilli Flakes, valued at 7.5x for a five of a kind win. These are followed by the Soy Sauce at 6x and the Prawn at 4x, with the Salmon, Rice, and Avocado finalising the premium payers with returns of 3x, 2x, and 1.75x, respectively. Surprisingly, that’s the end of the food symbols, with Pragmatic opting for the card suits as the lower pays, with the Spade and Heart both returning 1.5x and the Club and Diamond sharing payouts 0.75x if five form part of a winning combination.

Let’s wrap things up in this part with the bet selection on Running Sushi, where you have dozens of options to choose from. These begin at the low end from just €0.20 a spin, with the upper standard limit reaching a maximum of €240.

Running Sushi Slot Base Game & Modifiers

Running Sushi Slot Base Game

Set on a 5×4 reel matrix, Running Sushi has a total of 1,024 payways in play to create wins upon. All that’s needed for some cash to come your way is for three or more matching symbols to land on consecutive reels beginning from the leftmost reel first.

Ante Bet

The ante bet option can be toggled on at the cost of an extra 25% on top of your original stake. Whilst this feature is active, your chances of triggering the free spins feature are doubled.

Take Sushi

At the bottom of the reels on each spin, random pieces of sushi appear with multiplier values ranging from 1x to 1,000x. If the Take Sushi Scatter symbol lands on reels 1, 3, and 5 simultaneously, all values in view will be collected and awarded as a prize.

Running Sushi Slot Bonus Features

Running Sushi Slot Free Spins Feature

There is one main bonus round for you to trigger on Running Sushi, and this is activated when the Chef Scatter symbol lands on reels 2, 3, and 4, awarding 10 free spins.

Free Spins Feature

During the free spins bonus round, a global multiplier comes into play, collecting the value of all multiplier symbols that appear during the feature. Once again, if the Take Sushi scatters land on reels 1, 3, and 5, you’ll win what’s in view for that round, but if the Take All scatters hit on reels 2, 3, and 4, you’ll be awarded the total of the global multiplier.

Bonus Buy

Those wishing to skip the base game can gain instant access to the free spins feature on Running Sushi via the bonus buy option. This will cost a fixed price of 85x the current bet to trigger.

Pros

  • Two bonus features to trigger.
  • Free spins seem to activate with relative frequency.

Cons

  • Below average RTP.
  • Low maximum win cap of 5,000x.

Running Sushi Slot Review Final Thoughts

With literally 100s of slots in their portfolio, it's always going to be a tall order for Pragmatic Play to come up with something original on a slot release, but Running Sushi does have elements that make it stand out. Yes, it's fair to say it's unlikely to have you coming back for many repeat visits, but it does enough to warrant an initial session, at least.
