Puzzles and slots intertwine on this brand new game from Cryptologic. Players can place wagers on Sudoku and win real cash prizes in the process. The slot includes wilds, scatters and two individual bonus rounds as well as prizes up to $240,000.

Sudoku Slots Theme

Sudoku fans will instantly recognize the 3x3 grid of squares which sit on the lefthand side of the screen. This is the main game area and your aim will be to spin in the numbers 1 to 9 in a line or row to win a prize.

The area on the righthand side is where you start play or setup auto plays. You can also view the paytable which shows what is paid out when three or more rows or columns of numbers are formed.

Betting Options and More Functions

Players place bets on either vertical columns or horizontal rows. You are able to place 0.10 to $20 bets on each of these options which means total bets range from 0.10 to $40 depending on your choice.

Payouts are based upon getting lines or rows of numbers (1 to 9). The more lines you get the higher the payout and entire squares pay more. If you fill the whole board you win 8,000 coins which is the largest possible payout.

Sudoku Slot Features

The star icon is wild and can stand in for any missing number which makes completing a row or column much more likely.

Five to nine completed squares will unlock the free spins bonus game. You are given 15 free spins where all wins are double the regular paytable prize. During these spins you can retrigger more free spins and trigger the second bonus round too.

Red numbers also have a role to play because getting 7 or more will trigger five respins. During these respins the red numbers remain in place which increases your chances of winning. At the end of the round a prize is awarded based on the number of red squares present.

Our Take on Sudoku

One persons heaven is another persons hell; Sudoku is one of those games which splits opinion. Personally I love the challenge and appreciate how this slot has been themed with elements from the popular number crunching game. Any doubters out there should also remember that this slot packs in a $240,000 maximum jackpot and requires no strenuous thinking to win it; just pure luck!
