Shaolin Master

Hacksaw's video slot, Shaolin Master, employs the Cluster Pays mechanic, where players need five or more adjacent symbols aligned either horizontally or vertically to secure a win. When winning combinations are formed, those symbols vanish, making way for new ones and creating chances for cascading wins. The game includes unique wild multiplier symbols called Chi Orbs: the Blue Chi Orb raises the multiplier by +1 with each cascade win, while the Red Chi Orb boosts the multiplier based on the size of the winning cluster. During cascades, the Balance Chi Orb appears, featuring a multiplier that equals the product of the Blue and Red orbs in play, disappearing after it contributes to a winning cluster.

To activate "The Student Bonus," players must land three FS Scatter symbols, which awards 10 free spins, increasing to 12 with four scatters. In this bonus round, each reel has multiplier values that increase by +1 with every winning cluster formed on that reel. Randomly, the Green Gem multiplier modifier symbols can multiply these reel multipliers between 2× and 10×. When the Green Chi Orb appears, it activates its multiplier, adding +3 spins to the remaining free spins, and the total of activated multipliers is applied to cluster wins.

"The Master Bonus" feature is triggered by five scatter symbols and follows a hold & win style, starting with three lives. In this round, regular symbols are replaced by special Stone Block symbols. Multiplier values on the reels can be enhanced by Multiplier Modifier Blocks, which may impact either a specific reel or all reels in certain cases. The Blue Gem and Epic Blue Gem increase value, while the Green Gem and Epic Green Gem amplify the respective multipliers. Ice Blocks fall and shatter, while Crusher Blocks eliminate all blocks in their path, transforming into a large Multiplier Block below. Each time a new Multiplier Block, Modifier Block, or Crusher Block lands, the life count resets to three, with the bonus concluding when lives reach zero, at which point the values of all Blocks are summed and multiplied by the bet.

Shaolin Master also features a Bonus Buy option, granting direct access to bonus games. Players can choose from BonusHunt, which boosts the chance of triggering bonuses at multiple times the bet, Enlightened FeatureSpins, which ensures a Red Chi Orb and at least one winning cluster, or immediate entry into The Student bonus and The Master bonus. The game's theme centers on the teacher-student dynamic within a dojo, with visuals and sound effects that capture the essence of Chi Orbs, stone blocks, and the artistry of Chinese kung fu.
