Sushi Yatta

Sushi Yatta Review

With Sushi Yatta, the developer presents an innovative and unorthodox slot game. Its uniqueness stems from the reel set and operation of bonus features, appealing to players seeking innovative releases.

Sushi Yatta - Slot Outlook

The game takes players to a kaitenzushi restaurant, also known as a conveyor belt sushi or sushi train. The grid is a square-shaped 1x15 grid that stretches over the whole bar counter. The restaurant is nicely designed, with everything toned in black and white and a piece of traditional Japanese music that adds to the general ambiance. Customers occupy the red seats surrounding the bar and trigger abilities.

Playable on any device, it comes with a betting range of $0.1 to $10 per spin. The RTP is 96.92%. The volatility is rated as very high, yet the max win is 2,000x the stake. The hit rate is 25.5%.

In the Sushi Yatta slot, wins are formed in clusters, or by landing 3 or more matching symbols adjacently. The Cascading Wins mechanic removes winning symbols and adds new ones to the grid, and symbols move across the reel clockwise. Symbols are split into high and low categories, and highest wins are awarded for combinations of 10+ symbols. On the lower side, there are classic A-J royals that are worth from 10x to 20x the stake for 10-symbol wins, and premiums include different types of sushi, rolls, and nigiri that pay up to 200x.

Sushi Yatta - Bonus Features

Customers are the key to your success. They can randomly visit the restaurant on each base game spin to trigger cascades and other extras.

Customers start with a 3-Star rating (3 Health) whenever they appear and stay until all stars are gone. They lose one star on each spin they are not fed but can eat non-winning high-paying symbols to replenish the stars. There are 5 different characters in total, each with its own abilities, called Customer Features:

• Maneki-Neko - eats a high-pay symbol in front of it, triggering a cascade.
• Aiko - eats a high-pay symbol in front of her and adds a Wild symbol to the reel after all cascades.
• Sea Monster - eats a high-pay symbol in front of it, and then destroys all low-paying symbols in view after all cascades and other Customer Features have concluded. Leaves the table after triggering the feature. Upon dropping its star rating to 0, the Sea Monster enrages and eats a Customer in an adjacent seat.
• Sota Sumo - takes 2 customer seats and can eat 2 high-paying symbols at once. Puts a Wild symbol back to the position he ate the high symbol.
• Uki Unicorn - eats a high-paying symbol in front of it and then converts up to 5 low-paying symbols in view into Wilds. Leaves the table after triggering the feature.

If any customer eats a Scatter symbol during the base game, players will receive 3 Respins after all cascades have concluded. The Respins feature can be retriggered multiple times if customers eat additional Scatter symbols during the bonus.

Keep an eye for Super Sake symbols which can appear on any spin to increase a total win Multiplier. Super Sake symbols fly off the reels to the chef whenever they drop, triggering a cascade. They can land with a Multiplier of up to 20x, and the multipliers that drop on the same spin are added together. During the Respins, the Super Sake Multiplier is sticky and stays for the entire duration of the bonus.

Sushi Yatta - Slot Verdict

There's a lot to enjoy, and the innovative reel format is bound to be enjoyed by many. Sushi Yatta uses features and mechanics that we've seen countless times before, but presented here, they work in a different and absolutely unique way. The Customer abilities are fun and can be very effective when they work in pairs, and Super Sake multipliers take the rewards to a whole new level.
