Pragmatic Play · 2024
Running Sushi is a 5x4 video slot by Pragmatic Play with high volatility. This page sets out the figures, rounds and bonus modes before your first spin.
Pick Running Sushi if you enjoy a Japanese food theme played on a fixed grid of 5 reels and 4 rows. The grid offers 1,024 ways to win, so a win forms when matching symbols land on neighbouring reels, read from left to right and starting on reel 1. You need at least 3 matching symbols in that chain to pay. Sushi ingredients and the four card suits make up the symbols.
Choose Running Sushi if you like features that build during a round. Three TAKE SUSHI symbols on reels 1, 3 and 5 collect the MONEY symbols on the conveyor belt. Three SCATTER symbols on reels 2 to 4 start 10 Free Spins. During them, the ALL THE SUSHI meter gathers MONEY values until a TAKE ALL symbol collects it.

Four modes below
Useful once the bonus starts, or when the collect symbols show up on the reels.
Three scatters on reels 2, 3 and 4 start 10 free spins. Gold coin wilds on reels 2-4 and take all symbols appear. An ALL THE SUSHI meter collects every money symbol value hit. The round ends when spins run out or the 3,000x bet cap is reached.
Base game spins10 free spins
Three Take Sushi symbols on reels 1, 3 and 5 start the feature. The feature collects the values of all money symbols currently shown on the belt for that spin, adding them to the spin win. It works in the base game and in free spins.
Any spinMoney symbol values
Only in free spins, three take all symbols on reels 2, 3 and 4 start the feature. It collects the entire current value of the ALL THE SUSHI meter, including that spin's own money symbol values. Then the meter resets to 0.
Free spins roundWhole meter total
The game runs on a fixed grid of 5 reels x 4 rows with 1024 ways to win. Wins are adjacent matching symbols counted left to right from reel 1. A money symbol conveyor belt sits beneath the reels and feeds the Take Sushi collect feature.

Clearer rounds, calmer play
Richard Casino keeps each step visible, so you know the next move before you press spin.
You choose a bet from A$0.20 up to A$300 before the first spin. Every win scales with that bet, and a Free Spins round ends once it reaches 3,000 times the bet.
You look for matching symbols on adjacent reels, counting left to right from reel 1. The 5x4 grid offers 1024 ways to win, and three matching symbols are enough to pay.
You watch the MONEY symbols on the conveyor belt beneath the reels. Three TAKE SUSHI symbols on reels 1, 3 and 5 add every value on the belt to the spin win.
You get 10 free spins when three SCATTER symbols land on reels 2, 3 and 4. The background then shifts to a night-city skyline.
You set your budget before the first spin, because no one knows how a session will end. Call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858.
Four screens, one game
After these four screens, you will know what a win and a bonus look like.
Practise without stakes
Useful when you are deciding whether to practise first or open a real-money account.
The demo needs no money and pays nothing. The real game needs an account at Richard Casino, and you must be 18+.
Start playingChoosing Running Sushi means accepting that nobody can time the bonus round. How often the Free Spins arrive is not known in advance, and the result of any single session stays random, whatever the RTP of 96.00 says. Two sessions with the same bet can end far apart, even though both follow the same rules.
Deciding how much to stake starts with the game rules. Which RTP version Richard Casino runs for Running Sushi is shown only there, so read them before you change your bet. The rules are the only place where that version is confirmed for this game.
Chasing the x3,000 maximum win means aiming at a ceiling that is reached very rarely. At the example top bet of A$1 that ceiling is A$3,000, and the cap applies to Free Spins too. Read the maximum win as a limit on the payout, not as a target for any one session.

Four questions answered
The most common worry is not knowing what a win could be before the first spin.
If you want Free Spins, land three SCATTER symbols on reels 2, 3 and 4. They award 10 free spins. During the round, WILD gold coins appear on reels 2 to 4 and the ALL THE SUSHI meter collects MONEY symbol values.
If you are after the top prize, note the cap of 3,000 times the bet. At the example top bet of A$1, that is A$3,000. With the highest bet of A$300, the maximum win reaches A$900,000. Free Spins end at the cap, and remaining features are forfeited.
If you compare RTP, note that Running Sushi has one version at 96.00 percent. RTP is the share of the amount staked that the game returns to players over a very long run of spins. It does not show what one session will return.
If you choose a bet, start from A$0.20, the lowest bet allowed. The highest bet is A$300. The bets of A$0.20, A$0.50 and A$1 used on this page are examples, not the limits of the game.
Play is for people aged 18+. For help in Australia, call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858 or join BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.
Choose the amount you can afford to lose before you open the game, and keep it aside for the session.
Decide when you will stop before the first spin, and hold to it even after a big win.
Set deposit and loss limits in your account before you play this slot, so they cap every session.
Take a break as soon as the game stops being fun, and self-exclude through BetStop if you need more distance.
