Enter the Japanese Forest and Meet Fox-Lady Kitsune 

The game introduces players to the world of mysticism and magic by sending them into the depths of a captivating Japanese forest where they will meet fox-lady Kitsune and get lost in the fantasy world. 

Kituse is a mischievous spirit that will guide players on their spellbinding journey. 

Gamers who appreciate slots with a touch of the supernatural will be pleased to explore the game inspired by the Shinto Inari shrines of Japan, folklore, and religion. 

The enchanted forest will lead the way to expanding wilds, free spins, and Torii gates that will trigger potential maximum wins of up to 2,165x the stake.

During the bonus level, players get the opportunity to select a path to take. While walking through Torii gates, they will reach the highest multiplier.

The two fox statues flanking the grid can expand any wild symbols popping up to fill their reel, as well as free spins and bonus symbols for extra excitement.  

Players who land three fox statues receive 12 free spins as the night falls over the forest and the fantastical fox spirits are seen coming out to play. 

At this point, the two statues will preserve their golden finish during the entirety of the feature. This means that any popping wild symbols will expand while any extra free spins become available for collection.

To trigger the Pick–A-Path bonus, players need to land three fox statues. There, they must select one of the two available Torii gates for a chance to win a prize multiplier and either advance to the next set of gates where they can choose once again, or collect the value of all the multipliers that have been revealed up to that point.

Swintt’s chief executive officer, David Mann, called the new release “another stunning example” of everything that makes their games unique, praising the “breathtaking visuals” and “captivating Japanese theme” that will make players want to lose themselves in the magical forest. 

Last June, Swintt launched Lucky Fortune Door, another Asian-themed slot with a Quadspin mechanic that grants layers the chance to further boost their winnings.
