Hanzo’s Dojo Introduction

Yggdrasil Gaming has set itself the goal of launching new slots at roughly one per month, and up to now they’ve kept to that schedule. Visually, the releases are stronger than ever, and the studio clearly continues to push the entertainment side forward. However, one key area still doesn’t seem to match the rest of the development: the payouts.

Huge Yggdrasil win screenshots and videos seem less common than you’d expect, and the RTP figures picked up by our slot tracking tools say a lot, placing Yggdrasil among the weakest-performing game developers in the business.

With grasslands, towering mountains, and cherry blossoms drifting through the air, the slot is built around Hanzo and his Dojo, where he trains warriors in martial arts.

Hanzo’s Dojo is a 5×3 video slot with 25 paylines plus an extra 3×1 Rooftop Slot. It runs on all devices with stakes from €0.10 – €125 and offers a 96.1% RTP. The game includes the Rooftop Slot add-on, 2 Free Spin modes, and 5 Free Spin boosters.

Hanzo’s Dojo Symbols

The slot features 8 regular symbols (4 low-value and 4 premium) along with a wild, and wins are paid when three or more match in a row on a payline starting from the leftmost reel. The top-paying symbol, Hanzo, returns 9,4x for 5 on a payline.

Above the main reels sits a smaller 3×1 reel set called the Rooftop Slot. This is where players can activate extra Free Spin Boosters and modes. There are 4 different symbols that players can land:

• The Hanzo Symbol
• The Expanding Wild
• Free Spin Symbol

Conclusion

With so many separate mechanics, this slot can be awkward to sum up in a review, but it’s far easier to follow once you actually play it. The aim is to trigger Hanzo spins or free spins, then hit a scatter symbol on the 3×1 reel set (Rooftop) to stack useful boosters onto your bonus—ideally the x2 multiplier alongside other boosters.

There’s no doubt it’s a lively, action-driven slot. The booster system creates different bonus setups from one round to the next, which adds real variety. In terms of how it plays and functions, it feels like a blend of two other Yggdrasil titles—Nirvana and Lucha Maniacs. Just don’t go in expecting huge, record-breaking payouts, as it’s a medium volatile slot with a relatively low 3000x max win. Even though it’s enjoyable, with Yggdrasil it’s still a question of whether it truly delivers on returns.

Hanzo’s Dojo can be found at all Yggdrasil Gaming casinos.
