Play Sakura Tree For Real Money With Bonus
Sakura Tree Slot Machine
Sakura Tree is a slot machine with 5 reels and 30 paylines created by IGT, which can also be played as a MultiWay title with 243 ways to win. This dual setup provides players with flexibility in gaming.
The game is described as having medium volatility with low stakes. While IGT has suggested that it targets a female audience, there’s no reason men can’t enjoy some floral-themed slot action.
Players have the opportunity to win a maximum jackpot of 10,000 credits on the 30-payline version and 4,000 credits on the 243 ways to win version. The maximum bet allowed is 1,500 credits for the 30-payline version and 1,200 credits for the 243 ways to win version.
IGT states that the payout percentage ranges from 89.9% to 98%, varying depending on the casino. However, a minimum level of nearly 90% is still favorable for players.
Theme
The sakura tree, known for its cherry blossoms, is native to the Himalayas but is commonly found in the northern hemisphere, particularly in Japan where it serves as the national flower.
While IGT has delved into Japanese culture with slots like Jewel of the Arts and Red Mansions, this game takes a more floral approach, aligning with their intention to cater to a female audience. Perhaps a bit stereotypical, akin to suggesting men love certain things – a point well noted.
The reel symbols feature various Japanese and natural elements, including origami displays, bonsai trees, fans, ornaments, umbrellas, koi fish, tortoises, birds, and rabbits.
Features
IGT doesn’t overwhelm their slots with an abundance of bonus features, but they provide enough to keep things interesting. Here’s a look at the available bonus features in this game:
- Sakura Wilds – These are Wild Multipliers that actively participate in the gameplay, offering multipliers of 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, and 10x for potentially big wins.
- Blossom Bonus – Triggered by landing three or more Blossom Bonus symbols, this feature introduces the Sakura Wilds into a typical free spins bonus round. After each spin, Sakura Wilds descend onto the reels, substituting various symbols. Landing a Free Game symbol during a free spin earns additional free spins.
Summary
Sakura Tree was designed to appeal to a female audience, but in our opinion, it falls short in engaging both women and players in general. The game heavily relies on the Sakura Wilds feature, and the free spins aspect is underwhelming. Hitting five free spins may make you feel lucky, but not in a good way.
Knowing that IGT is capable of much better offerings, it’s disappointing to see a lackluster effort in this slot game. While it may serve as a quick fix for an IGT slot experience, it’s not likely to keep players entertained for long.
