IGT are a company who like to rearrange their reels into something a little different and their Multiway Xtra format comes into play in this brand new online slot entitles Sumatran Storm. The beautiful island of Sumatra is the setting for this game and the noble Sumatran tiger is the main character and one of the more valuable symbols.
As you can see from the screenshot above, Sumatran Storm takes place within a five reel diamond formation but there are 720 paylines due to the use of the Multiway Xtra feature. This means that as long as symbols are in adjacent columns, you’ve got a winning combo. The extra good news is that you can win from right to left as well as left to right.
The main symbols are theme-related and include the game’s logo, the tiger, a jade pendant, a scatter and a huge ornamental shell while the bonus symbols are a different tiger wild and a tiger’s eye which triggers the free spins.
Bonus Features
Free Spins
There are potentially loads of free spins available here and they’re activated by landing five or more of the tiger’s eye symbols on consecutive reels. Landing five will win you five free spins but there’s more – one more tiger’s eye on the reels would mean two sets of five so ten free spins. The more eyes you land, the more the free spins stack up and there’s a possible 60 available to start with.
The free spins reels are a slightly different colour than in the base game (the pendant becomes pink for example) and landing five more eyes will get you another five spins; you can actually get 150 in total before the game’s generosity runs out.
Sumatran Storm Online Slot Playing Tips
Advice is limited here because you can’t change anything apart from the bet level. Just turn the dramatic music on and enjoy the game.
Verdict
This game certainly looks good but it’s the free spins feature which is the centrepiece of this slot. The Multiway Xtra feature is a welcome change from the usual five reel standard and the music is entertaining enough to leave the sound on.
