Game Overview
We’re often told that size doesn’t matter. Well, I’m here to inform you that in some circumstances, it does—and not in the context some of you may be thinking. I’m talking about Sumo wrestling, a sport with no weight classes, unlike boxing and other fighting sports. Your weight will not determine your next opponent, whether 100kg, 200kg, or more. For that reason, many Sumo wrestlers try their hardest to be heavier than their opponents when it comes time to wrestle. Don’t worry; there’s a reason why I’m going on about Sumo wrestlers, and more specifically, their weight, as both play a big part in Sumo Supreme Megaways, the latest slot from Pragmatic Play. This title offers up to 7,776 ways to win across a 5-reel configuration, a 96.55% RTP, and a 12,500x the stake maximum win.
As you’ve probably guessed, this slot is themed on Sumo wrestlers. However, their weight or, more to the point, their target weight takes centre stage. All symbols have a weight value, and each reel is weighed at the end of a spin. Should the weight of the reel equal or better than a randomly chosen ‘Target Weight’ then a box reveals whether you win a cash prize of up to 500x the stake, a win multiplier of up to 5x, or there are expanding wilds added to the reel above. The Target Weight also plays its part in the free spins bonus, although now it’s a persistent value that will not reset between spins.
Have I piqued your interest enough for you to want to learn more about Pragmatic Play’s latest release? Then why not play the Sumo Supreme Megaways slot demo below to see if it’s a game you’d happily wager some real cash on later?
Sumo Supreme Megaways Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
The Sumo theme is not the biggest around, so to speak, as I only know of one other game that has used these giant athletes as the theme. That title is Sumo Sumo from Elk Studios, a 5×5 grid slot with 259 adjacent payways, a 25,000x max win, a free spins bonus, and an entertaining Fight & Merge Re-Spin Bonus Game. If it’s just the fighting theme that floats your boat, then you’ll find plenty of offerings to scratch that itch, with NetEnt’s Street Fighter 2 a good choice, along with the excellent Fist of Destruction from Hacksaw Gaming.
The next step is to inspect the paytable on Sumo Supreme Megaways, which displays the combo payouts of each of the 10 paying symbols. The different coloured Sumo Wrestlers offer the best payouts, with the Red Wrestler worth 3x for a 5-symbol combination. He’s followed by the Green and Purple Wrestlers, which both offer a top combo win of 1x the stake, and the Blue and Yellow Wrestlers, which pay up to 0.6x. The low-pays are the Weight Symbols, with the 6, 7, 8, and 9 offering a max return of 0.5x and the 10 rewarding up to 0.4x.
Pragmatic Play usually sticks to a familiar betting range for its slot games, and that’s the case once again, as you can wager between a minimum of €0.10 and a maximum of €240.00 per spin on Sumo Supreme Megaways.
Sumo Supreme Slot Base Game & Modifiers
There are 5 reels on the Sumo Supreme Megaways slot, and each can hold between 2 and 7 symbols, meaning a spin can deliver anywhere up to 7,776 ways to win. To create winning combinations, three or more matching symbols must land on consecutive reels starting from the leftmost reel. There is one exception, and that is the 10-weight symbol that requires just two or more to trigger a payout.
A tumble mechanic is also in play and removes the symbols involved in winning combinations, allowing more to drop from above. The new symbols can form new combinations, and the process repeats until no winning combos are possible.
Target Weight Feature
As you spin the reels, you’ll notice a number appear beneath each one, which is the weight of all symbols that land on it. Aside from the wild and scatter, all symbols will have a weight value written on them.
To the right of the reels, a random target weight value is set, and should any reel have a combined weight that is equal to or greater than that value, the box opens to reveal one of the following prizes:
- Cash Prizes of between 0.5x and 500x the stake.
- Win Multipliers of between 2x and 5x.
- Expanding Wilds added to all positions above the winning box.
On each spin, every consecutive cascading win reduces the target weight value by 1x. Finally, if all boxes are opened during a spin, the last is guaranteed to reveal all three rewards simultaneously.
Ante Bet
Using the Ante Bet feature to the left of the reels, you can spin with a stake of 25% on top of your current spin bet for double the chance to trigger the free spins bonus.
Sumo Supreme Slot Bonus Features
A free spins bonus game triggers on Sumo Supreme Megaways whenever four or more scatter symbols finish up on the reels at the end of a spin. The number of spins you receive depends on how many scatters landed on the triggering spin. You receive 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, or 28 free spins in return for 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 scatter symbols, respectively.
Free Spins Feature
Before the start of the bonus round, a target weight is randomly chosen and remains persistent between spins. Each cascading win reduces that target by 1. Each time four or more scatters appear on the same spin, you receive an additional 4 spins.
Bonus Buy
Should you want higher-risk gameplay, you can use the Buy Bonus feature to purchase the free spins bonus at the cost of 75x your current spin bet.
Pros
- The Target Weight feature is something new and can lead to impressive payouts.
Cons
- Varied RTP models of the game can be used by operators.
Sumo Supreme Megaways Slot Review Final Thoughts
The Target Weight feature is an interesting mechanic in Sumo Supreme Megaways, and it has the capability of being absolutely tragic or out of this world. If you get a good run of cascades and a random max Megaways trigger, you could be in for a shot at the 5k jackpot.
