On May 21, NetEnt launched their slot machine, which is definitely making big bets. And for good reason - Street Fighter II: The World Warrior really differs significantly from what is currently offered on the market. This is an explosive slot that should appeal to a wide audience, and not as intended by someone who grew up on gaming consoles in the 90s.
It may seem a bit confusing at first, but it's easy to understand. The developer tried to take the maximum from the game on which the slot is built. NetEnt Game Director Bryan Upton said:
When creating Street Fighter II: The World Warrior slot, we felt a huge responsibility to make sure that the slot machine lives up to the cult original of the 90s - a video game that has continued to delight fans for almost 30 years.
Authenticity was critical game design factors ranging from arcade-inspired graphics to slot mechanics, as well as Beat the Bosses and Car Smashing bonus rounds.
Well, the developer fulfilled his main task in preserving authenticity by 100%. The first thing a player needs to do is choose a fighter. The volatility of future rounds depends on this. Next, your opponent is randomly determined and the battle begins. A cluster of 4 or more hero symbols counts as damage to the enemy. The life indicator of both fighters is shown at the top.
The round ends when the life of one of the opponents ends. But whoever wins, the bonus game is activated. It's just that if your fighter loses, Car Smashing is activated, where credits are awarded for the destruction of the car. And if he wins, Beat the Bosses free spins are activated and the chance to complete four rounds of free spins with an increasing multiplier is activated. And in this case, the potential is already much higher.
In general, this slot machine is strikingly different from any other. And while it has definitely eclipsed many hits. One problem - from such an abundance of what is happening on the screen, over time, your head may ache.
