IN THE SPOTLIGHT: MICROGAMING’S NEW ONI HUNTER SLOT

Published: January 18, 2022

One of the latest online slots I can recommend keeping an eye out for this week is the new Oni Hunter online slot from Gacha Studios and Microgaming. It was released simultaneously on desktop and mobile as recently as Monday, January 17th, 2022, and it’s now available to play in the real money mode and free play demo mode from as little as C$0.50 per spin up to C$100.00 per spin at numerous trusted Canadian-friendly online casinos, such as Spin Casino and Casino.com.

The game can be launched either instantly in your web browser or from within the Microgaming casino download client, and the top coin prize up for grabs on any lucky spin is capped at just 100x times your total stake. It’s a Classic Slot, which means that it has just 3 reels, and there are only 5 paylines. There are several fun bonus features for you to look forward to triggering as you spin the reels, including two different Free Spins Bonus features, a Respins feature, and a Picking Bonus.

The most important symbols to keep an eye out for in this game are the Respins Symbols (the Bird Symbol), the Bonus Symbol, the 7Rush Scatter Symbol and the Treasure Box Scatter Symbol, all of which can land in any position across any of the 3 reels. The Respin feature will kick into action each time a Bird Symbol shows up, and each time this happens, the Bird Symbol will be collected for you in the special symbol collection meter, and you will go on to play at least 1 free RESPIN.

If another Bird Symbol shows up during the respin, it too will be collected and will trigger another free respin. The same process will keep on repeating until no more new Bird Symbols show up or until you have collected at least 6 Bird Symbols, which will fill the meter to the top and trigger the Combat Free Spins Bonus. You would then go on to play at least 10 ‘Combat’ Free Spins.

It’s also possible to trigger the same Free Spins Bonus feature during the Picking Bonus, which will only ever trigger when 3 Bonus Symbols land anywhere in view on the same spin. Once triggered, you will get to play in a simple picking bonus away from the reels. All you need to do here is click on an item to reveal either a 7Rush Symbol or a Cash Prize. Finding the 7Rush Symbol triggers the Free Spins Bonus.

The Oni Hunter online slot is a fantastic new Japanese Manga/Anime-themed slot that I can definitely recommend checking out when you next visit Casino.com. It’s really easy to play, and it has plenty of fun bonus features to keep most players happily entertained for long periods of time. If you enjoy playing this new Anime/Manga-themed slot and want more similar games, then I can also recommend keeping an eye out for various other hit titles, such as Magical Stacks from Playtech, Sakura Fortune from Quickspin, and Fortune Girl from Microgaming.

If that’s not enough to keep you going, then you may also like to try Lucky Little Gods from Microgaming, Starlight Princess from Pragmatic Play, Candy Island Princess from Play’n GO, and Magic Maid Café from NetEnt.
