Golden Hero’s latest game is a 3-reel slot elevated with pachinko mathematics – a perfect combo for players around the world.

On 28 September, Golden Hero released their latest online casino slot, Raigeki Rising X30. As many of their games, Raigeki Rising X30 merges the traditional slot games with popular Japanese Pachislo giving the mechanics of the game an extra twist.

Game play and features

The game is easy to understand and has a captivating space theme with upbeat music that creates a fast pace with high expectations. The game has a new exciting reel format with only 7 symbols and 6 paylines and it has a very high payout of up to 9000 times your bet and with infinite chances of retriggering as long as you get a symbol win.

What is Pachislo and Pachinko?

Pachislo machines are very popular in Japan and are derived from the old Japanese game Pachinko. In Pachinko players have to guide metal balls through something that looks like a traditional pinball machine. Pachinko are played in parlors and are extremely popular in Japan. As gaming is still illegal players receive metal balls that they can trade for goods and cash.

Pachislo is the younger sibling of Pachinko. They look like regular slot machines but the main features make them very different from a regular slot. They usually come with an animated story that develops and changes based on the outcome of the reels and are played with tokens rather than metal balls.

Golden Hero’s Pachislos

Golden Hero has teamed up with JTG, Japan Technical Games, to develop and introduce Pachislos to the online casino world. They may look like regular slots, but the similarities end with the number of reels. The player experience is far from regular as the games are packed with extra features as well as graphics and animations accompanied by music and audio effects that set them apart and lift the experience.

Thomas Nimstad, CEO of Golden Hero, has high expectations on the game release. “Raigeki Rising X30 offers more than a traditional player experience.”, he says and continues, “These games offer increased player sessions and spiced with free round offers they become a unique tool for both acquisition and retention.”
