Rise of Samurai III is a Pragmatic Play 5 x 4 slot with x2, x3, or x5 chest wilds on the three middle reels that become sticky throughout the complete free-spin feature.
Multiplier chest wilds stay fixed only in the bonus, so their value depends on landing where repeated paylines can keep using them.

Multiplier Wilds Lock In
Forty paylines evaluate matching combinations from the leftmost reel across the 5 x 4 grid. Standard symbols provide the base values, while treasure-chest wilds substitute for regular symbols when they occupy a valid position on a payable line.
Chest wilds appear on reels two, three, or four and carry x2, x3, or x5 multipliers. Their value applies when the wild supports a winning line, so a displayed multiplier outside a payable combination produces no separate award.
Scatters trigger free spins, where every landed multiplier wild becomes sticky for the remaining round. Additional scatters can extend the feature, giving existing locked chests more line evaluations before all positions reset at bonus completion.
Sticky Chest Effects
- Middle reels: Multiplier wilds are restricted to reels two through four.
- Three values: Each chest carries x2, x3, or x5.
- Line contact: The multiplier matters only on a supported winning payline.
- Sticky bonus: Landed chests remain fixed through later free spins.
- Extra spins: Retriggers extend the time existing sticky wilds remain active.
- Full reset: All locked multipliers disappear when the bonus ends.
Multiplier Contact and Payouts
Base-game value depends on a multiplier chest landing where it substitutes inside a valid forty-line combination. The x2, x3, or x5 display does not pay alone, and an isolated chest can finish with no added return.
Free spins concentrate more value by preserving successful chest positions across later results. A locked wild on a central reel can support repeated paylines, while a poorly placed chest may remain visible without connecting to matching symbols.
Additional spins increase the number of evaluations for existing sticky multipliers, but they do not guarantee the x10,000 ceiling. Maximum outcomes still require multiplier contact, compatible symbols, and sufficient line value before the feature resets.
Player fit and limitations
- Middle-reel wilds: Suits players who track multiplier positions centrally.
- Sticky buildup: Suits players who prefer persistent bonus modifiers.
- Reel limits: Chest wilds cannot land on reels one or five.
- Multiplier contact: Displayed values require a winning line to apply.
A visible x5 chest can prompt stake increases without a winning line.
Keep one stake level throughout the planned session.
