Hey Sushi is a Habanero slot from 2020: five reels of three, 25 fixed lines, seven dishes and six card symbols. Winning symbols are cleared and new ones drop in, and each new cascade in a round steps a multiplier from x1 to x2, x3 and x5. Three or more scatters bring 10 free games whose multipliers start higher the later the feature triggers, up to x5 to x15. Habanero rates the volatility high and lists a maximum multiplier of x1,217.
RTP (return to player): the share of bets the game pays back over time, as Habanero publishes it.
The studio supplies more than one RTP, and each casino picks one: its copy shows the figure on the game's info screen.

How Hey Sushi works
Five reels of three rows carry 25 fixed lines, so a spin costs 25 coins times the bet level. Line wins run from the leftmost reel, each line pays only its longest win, and wins on different lines add up.
Seven dishes top the pay table, from a glazed-fish rice bowl down to fried balls under sauce, with A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9 below them.
The wild, a red crab on a green tile, stands in for everything but the scatter and lands only on reels 2 to 4, so every line win starts with a regular symbol on reel one. The scatter, a board of tuna and prawn sushi with octopus, pays anywhere on top of line wins.
What each symbol pays on a R5 spin
Line wins are multiplied by the bet per line, R0.20 at R5, and scatter wins by the total bet. Amounts are before any multiplier.
| Symbol | Five | Four | Three | Five, times the stake |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Glazed-fish rice bowl | R150 | R50 | R5 | 30x |
| Red-fish sushi | R100 | R40 | R3 | 20x |
| Omelette sushi | R80 | R25 | R3 | 16x |
| Prawn tempura | R60 | R20 | R3 | 12x |
| Orange-topped sushi | R50 | R15 | R2 | 10x |
| Hand roll | R30 | R10 | R2 | 6x |
| Fried balls | R20 | R5 | R1 | 4x |
| A or K | R15 | R4 | R1 | 3x |
| Q | R10 | R3 | R1 | 2x |
| J, 10 or 9 | R5 | R2 | R1 | 1x |
| Scatter, anywhere | R500 | R25 | R5 | 100x |
Cascades and the multiplier bar
Winning symbols are replaced: the symbols above slide into the gaps and new ones fall in. Cascades continue as long as there are new wins, and the game multiplier 'increases with each new cascade in a game round until the maximum is reached': x1 for the initial cascade, x2 for the second, x3 for the third and x5 for the fourth or any later one.
When a cascade brings no new win, the multiplier resets to its starting value, x1 in the base game. The step multiplies that cascade's line wins: at R5, five glazed-fish rice bowls pay R150 on the initial cascade and R750 on the fourth or later.
The free games: when the feature triggers sets the bar
Three or more scatters anywhere award 10 free games, and the base-game cascade on which the feature triggers sets their multipliers.
| Feature triggers on | Free-game multipliers, cascade by cascade |
|---|---|
| The initial cascade | x1, x2, x3, x5 |
| The 2nd cascade | x2, x3, x5, x7 |
| The 3rd cascade | x3, x5, x7, x10 |
| The 4th or any later cascade | x5, x7, x10, x15 |
How the ten free games play
Once the feature triggers, the base game's cascades end. Each free game climbs its bar the same way and drops back to the first step when a cascade brings no new win. Scatters appear only in the base game, so there is no retrigger: ten games, at the lines and bet of the triggering spin.
Sushi bonus payouts in the free games
In the free games each dish in a winning combination adds a bonus, once per combination, multiplied by the bet per line and the current game multiplier. Card symbols get none.
| Dish | Bonus, in line bets | On a R5 spin |
|---|---|---|
| Glazed-fish rice bowl | 100 | R20 |
| Red-fish sushi | 70 | R14 |
| Omelette sushi | 60 | R12 |
| Prawn tempura | 50 | R10 |
| Orange-topped sushi | 40 | R8 |
| Hand roll | 30 | R6 |
| Fried balls | 20 | R4 |
What the bonus does to a win, and the x1,217
Every dish's bonus is bigger than its pay for three of a kind, so a three-dish line in a free game pays four to almost six times its table value before the multiplier. Three omelette sushi pay R3 plus R12, and five glazed-fish rice bowls on the x15 step pay (R150 + R20) x 15 = R2,550 at R5.
Habanero lists a maximum multiplier of x1,217, R6,085 on a R5 spin, without saying which round reaches it.
The extras a casino can add
- Scatters are the only way in. Habanero marks Buy Feature and SuperBet as not part of Hey Sushi.
- Jackpots and tournaments: the casino's choice. A Jackpot Race (five minutes, 1% of each bet), Grand, Major and Minor jackpots, UP Tournaments and Bonus Free Spins are tools a casino can switch on from Habanero's Back Office.

Pros, cons and verdict
- Each new cascade steps the multiplier up, to x5 in the base game
- A later trigger starts the free games higher, up to x5 to x15
- Winning dishes add a bonus in the free games, multiplied too
- Scatters pay anywhere, 100 times the total bet for five
- Wilds never land on reel one, where every line starts
- Ten free games and no retrigger

- Five RTP settings from about 86%, and the operator chooses
Hey Sushi is built around the cascade: each new win moves the bar a step, and the step at which the scatters trigger sets how high the free games start. Help says the RTP 'can not be affected by the player strategy'. Before a real-money spin, read the Return To Player line in Help, since your casino sets it.
