Shadow Society Review

The conspiratorial world view has gained tons of followers in recent times, not least due to the mysterious Qanon info dump and the Covid lockdowns. Red Tiger doesn’t really delve too deep into the subject matter in Shadow Society, which comes with 4 mysterious and masked characters that reminded us of Stanley Kubrick’s secret society movie; Eyes Wide Shut.

The visual presentation is solid as usual though, and this is not the first time Red Tiger releases a progression system slot. The fact that you have to unlock even the premium character symbols is a bit unusual though, and it might rub some players the wrong way. Anyway, you get to expand the grid as well, and the bonus round progressive multiplier can lead to 10,000x payouts.

Shadow Society Slot Features

The masked premium character symbols pay between 50 and 150 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and there are no wild symbols to help you out in this game. However, there are some special feature symbols we’ll cover below, and you need to progress along the progress bar to unlock the premium symbols amongst other extras.

The eye pyramid Progress Symbol appears 1x2 in size, and it progresses you 1 step along the progress bar each time it lands. You need to progress 5 steps to unlock a reward, and there are 8 unique rewards to be unlocked in total:

• First Reward unlocks the lowest value purple character symbol.
• Second Reward gives you an extra reel.
• Third Reward unlocks the green character symbol.
• Fourth Reward awards one extra row.
• Fifth Reward unlocks the red character symbol.
• Sixth Reward gives you yet another extra reel.
• Seventh Reward unlocks the golden character symbol.
• Eight Reward awards another extra row.

You need 3 scatters in view to trigger the Bonus Round, and scatters appear on reels 1, the middle reel and the rightmost reel no matter what grid size you have unlocked. You win 10 free spins for starters, and +5 extra spins are won if you retrigger the feature by landing 3 scatters.

The win multiplier starts at x1, and it increases by +1 per win up to x15, at best. The progress bar system is active also during free spins.

Review Summary

When playing Shadow Society we couldn’t help but think about what a developer like NoLimit City could do with an intriguing subject like secret societies and the conspiracy world. Red Tiger hasn’t exactly gone to town with the subject matter, but the presentation is polished as is usually the case with this developer.

The progression system is hardly for everyone though, as it means you’re starting out severely handicapped without the ability to even land premium symbols.

When firing on all cylinders Shadow Society is capable of dishing out 10,000x your stake, which is unusually high for a Red Tiger release. We don’t think all that many players will bother jumping through the hoops though, but a certain crowd might be intrigued by the questlike progression element.

Pros

• Progression system unlocks premium symbols
• Progression also expands the grid (3x3 to 5x5)
• FS w/ progressive win multiplier up to x15
• Win up to 10,000x your stake

Cons

• Progression system is not for everyone
• Beware of adjustable RTP ranges
