Gameplay and paytable

Shadows Inc is a 5x4-grid slot with 14 fixed paylines. The reported return to player (RTP) is 96,28 % (simulated over 10 billion spins). The maximum possible win is 15 000× the stake in all game modes.

Payouts are read from the game's paytable at a stake of 2,00 €. The highest base symbol is the oni mask: five of them pays 20,00 € (10x bet), four 10,00 € (5x) and three 4,00 € (2x). Two character symbols (yellow warrior and purple hooded figure) pay five 12,00 € (6x), four 6,00 € (3x) and three 2,00 € (1x). Skull and shuriken pay five 6,00 € (3x), four 3,00 € (1,5x) and three 1,00 € (0,5x). The five lowest symbol icons (diamond, striped square, heart, hexagons, cross) pay five 2,00 € (1x), four 1,00 € (0,5x) and three 0,20 € (0,1x).

Wild and Slayer DuelReels

The Wild symbol substitutes for all other symbols on the paytable; five Wilds pay 20,00 € (10x stake) at the same bet.

VS symbol expands to cover the entire reel if it's part of a win: two 'slayer' characters duel, and the winner's multiplier (2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 7x, 8x, 9x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, 100x, 250x or 500x) spreads across the reel, which simultaneously becomes entirely Wild. If a VS symbol expands on every reel at once, the whole grid becomes Wild. Only one VS symbol can appear on a single reel at a time.

Free Spins and Bonus Buy

FS scatter symbols trigger three different bonuses in the base game: 3 symbols start the 'Rise of the Syndicate' bonus (10 free spins, increased chance of the VS symbol), 4 symbols start the 'Wild Slayers' bonus (10 free spins plus the Slicer mechanic, which adds an entire Wild row), and 5 symbols start the 'One Slayer to Slay Them All' bonus (10 free spins where DuelReels and Slicer are guaranteed to trigger on every spin). Additional FS symbols on the same spin award extra spins (2 = +2, 3 = +4).

The Best of Bonus symbol together with the required FS symbols triggers the 'Best of' version of the bonus, where three rounds are played consecutively and the best result is paid to the player. The game also offers a direct purchase option (Buy Bonus / FeatureSpins™) for different bonus modes; the RTP of purchased features varies between 96,26–96,38 % according to the game's own info panel.
