About the Katana game
Katana is a Japanese-themed online slot machine from NOVOMATIC, played on five reels, three rows and 20 paylines. Its main features are a Shogun Wild, sword Scatter symbols and ten free spins in which the Shogun can expand across an entire reel. Find it among Luckera’s classic slots through the Homepage.
Samurai Symbols and the Shogun Wild
The artwork draws on the world of samurai warriors and traditional Japanese martial arts. A noblewoman, mounted warriors, archers and temple buildings appear alongside card ranks, while the Shogun and katana sword have special roles. Detailed character illustrations and traditional architecture give the game a historical atmosphere.
Regular combinations are evaluated from left to right across consecutive reels, beginning on the first reel of an active line. Check the paytable before changing the stake, as it displays the value assigned to each symbol at the current wager.
The Shogun is the Wild and substitutes for all standard paying symbols except the katana Scatter. It can complete combinations and also forms wins using its own displayed value. After an eligible line win, players can enter the optional gamble feature and predict whether a facedown card will be red or black. A correct choice doubles the selected amount, while collecting ends the round and transfers the displayed prize.
Katana Scatters and Expanding Wilds
Landing three or more sword Scatters anywhere on the grid activates ten free spins. The feature retains the wager settings used for the triggering spin. When the Shogun Wild appears during the round, it expands vertically to cover its entire reel, allowing it to participate in several line combinations from the same result. Further sword Scatters can award additional free spins.
Katana has a published RTP of 95.02% and medium-high volatility. Its HTML5 format supports mobile play on compatible smartphones and tablets as well as desktop screens. Before wagering, review the casino’s Terms and Conditions, current promotions and Responsible Gaming options.
Katana may appeal to players who enjoy samurai imagery, traditional payline gameplay and a focused bonus feature built around expanding Wilds.
