One of Konami Gaming, Inc.’s latest video slot games introduces unique 11-reel play mechanics and exciting new math models to casinos internationally through the debut of its Inari Riches.

This important title is the first REELEVEN series game to be released internationally. Konami’s REELEVEN reel configuration includes a 3x3 grid of 9 position reels, combined with 2 standard reels for a grand total of 11 independent spinning reels. Inari Riches also has proven Konami elements including Action Stacked Symbols and fun free game features. These thrilling play dynamics combined with the game’s Japanese mythology themed design elements immediately stand out and awaken the interest of casino players.

Gigantic Symbol Feature

Inari Riches’ most iconic highlight is a puzzle piece bonus game that transforms the central 9 position reels into pieces of a gigantic symbol puzzle that spin into place for increasing wins.  The Gigantic Symbol Feature is triggered anytime the same symbol appears in every position on the two traditional reels 1 and 5. Players begin with 2 free spins, and for each piece of the puzzle completed, an extra spin is awarded and the collected symbol pieces are held.

“Konami has displayed this game at both G2E and ICE for the first time, and everyone who sees Inari Riches is impressed by the excitement and drama of the Gigantic Symbol Feature,” said Eduardo Aching, Konami’s vice president of international sales. “It overtakes the screen and pulls you in with a certain rhythm and energy, connected with an ascending payout scale. It’s easy to understand and captivates players of many broad demographics.”

Free Game Feature

Inari Riches also includes a free game feature, triggered by any 3 or more gate symbols. During the free games, reels 1 and 5 are synchronized, thereby increasing anticipation for the Gigantic Symbol Feature. Both bonus features can recur during the free games.

“Because the symbols on reels 1 and 5 are perfectly unison in the free games and you have the benefit of Action Stacked Symbols throughout, it gives players potential for some big wins, both with traditional line pays and the frequency of the Gigantic Symbol Feature,” said Aching.

Inari Riches’ unique 11-reel dynamic and puzzle piece bonus animation is exceptionally depicted on Konami’s extra-large Podium Goliath cabinet with 32” dual touch screens—just recently released for international markets. However it is also available on classic Podium® Upright/Slant and SeleXion multi-game, in fixed 20-, 30- and 40-line configurations.

Inari Riches 11-reel video slot is one of Konami’s latest KP3 platform game releases to hit markets internationally.
