The word "Sakura" means "cherry blossom" in Japanese, which is also a very common name in the land of the rising sun. The provider Quickspin has worked a lot on the graphics, the sound and the animations of the slot machine. The art direction is perfect, the background is animated, the symbols are beautiful and especially the wilds that will make you love Sakura Fortune 2 during the free spins.

In addition to that, the technical features of the slot are interesting: it is very volatile with a jackpot of up to 20,000 times the starting bet and the theoretical return to the player (RTP) is 96%, which is perfectly in the general average. Bets start from 20 euro cents and go up to 100 euros per spin at Lucky7Bonus partner online casinos.

Sakura Fortune 2 symbols

There are many symbols present in the Sakura Fortune 2 slot game. First of all, the Scatter symbol, represented by the sword surrounded by a golden ornament, allows to trigger the bonus feature thanks to at least 3 Scatters during the spin. The Wild symbol substitutes for any other symbol except the Scatters to allow for new connections. The Wild can only appear on reels 2, 3 or 4. Each time a Wild covers a reel completely, a respin is offered and the Wild symbol becomes sticky for the respin.

There are 5 premium symbols and they will not appear as often as the common symbols. In return, the winnings associated with the premium symbols are higher, so you will find : Sensei, Tomoe, Yoshida, the Jizo statue and the Koi statue. The rarest symbol can bring you up to 6 times the starting bet.

The common symbols, as the name suggests, are much more classic and will be much more present on the game grid, however the associated winnings are much smaller. You will find Japanese coins of different colors: Gold, Bronze, Silver and Green.

The different connections in Sakura Fortune 2

The grid in Sakura Fortune 2 consists of 5 reels, 3 lines on the first and last reels and 4 lines on the middle three reels. Connections are made by connecting the same symbol on at least the first 3 reels from the left, the symbols do not have to be side by side to connect, making a total of 576 paylines. The screen below is a good representation of the Sakura Fortune 2 slot machine's connection system.

How the Sakura Fortune 2 bonus works

When the player gets 3 Scatters, represented by the swords, on the game grid, a respin is triggered on reels 1 and 5 to unlock additional Scatters. Indeed, the number of Scatters will determine the bonus feature and the winnings to be expected. Here's a look at what you can win with the number of Scatters:

• With 3 scatters, the player wins 9 free spins

• 4 Scatters wins 10 free spins and 1 Sticky Wild symbol on the first spin

• 5 Scatters wins 11 free spins and 2 Sticky Wild symbols on the first spin

With a little luck, if the player gets a new Wild on another reel, it covers the entire reel and becomes Sticky until the end of the round. With 3 Sticky Wilds, a global x3 multiplier is triggered for all wins. As you can see from the screen below, getting 3 Sticky Wilds is the best set up for getting close to the jackpot.

Players can of course purchase the bonus feature if they find it difficult to obtain the necessary Scatters on the base game. Several bonus purchases are available:

• For 55 times the price of the starting bet, get 3 Scatters for 9 free spins

• For 70 times the starting bet, get 4 Scatters for 10 free spins and 1 Sticky Wild

• For 320 times the starting bet, get 5 Scatters for 11 free spins 2 Sticky Wild
