Daruma Impact (Habanero) – Review & Demo Play

The Daruma Impact Slot Game

Daruma Impact throws you into a 7-reel, 4-row setup with 50 fixed lines, wrapped around the Daruma doll folklore. The action plays out at night in front of a wooden shrine, with a calm, culture-led soundtrack. The control bar sits under the reels, while the Buy Feature and Super Bet toggles live on the left. It feels niche, and a few symbols can blur for newcomers to the theme, yet the core engine is tight and feature-led from the off.

Symbols and Payouts in Daruma Impact

I found only five regular symbols on this big grid, each a different doll colour. The Green, Dark Blue, and Light Blue dolls form the low band and pay for four or more on a line. They return 0.08x to 2x, 0.12x to 4x, and 0.2x to 12x the stake, respectively. With 50 fixed paylines, wins pay left to right, and you get the longest line only. All line wins are multiplied by the current bet level.

The high tier starts at three of a kind. Purple dolls pay 0.2x to 28x, while Red dolls reach 0.4x to 120x the bet. The Wild stands in for everything bar the Scatter and lands its own payout of 200x for seven on a payline. Scatters do not need lines, paying 3x to 500x for three to seven anywhere. They are also the key to the feature round, and that’s where the multipliers really start to stack.

Daruma Impact Slot Bonus Features

Regular symbols can appear as 2x2 or 3x3 mega symbols, which then split back into 1x1 for evaluation. On a 7x4 board this has real impact, as a single oversized drop can connect multiple lines at once. I found these breaks in rhythm helpful during base play, setting up neat clusters that you might miss with standard tiles. It pairs well with the bigger pays on Purple and Red dolls when the oversized blocks land just right.

The Mystery Wheel can spin on any turn. When it fires, it pays a cash prize of x6, x12, x20, x50, x75, x250, x500, x1000, or x10,000, multiplied by your selected bet. The higher slices are harder to hit, so most outcomes sit in the lower band, yet the top segment adds a genuine spike to the profile. Between that and the mega symbols, base game spins feel less flat than you’d expect on a 50-line setup.

Hit 3 to 7 Scatters anywhere for 7, 17, 27, 37, or 57 free games. Every winning Wild adds +1 to the Daruma multiplier after wins are paid, and that Wild stays for the rest of the feature. Wilds in the trigger also add to the starting value. Land a new multiplier on the last spin to gain +1 spin, though retriggers are off. Buy the round for 59.08x, or switch on Super Bet to double the stake and raise feature odds, Wild rates, and mega or wheel chances.

How to Win at Daruma Impact Slot

Despite the 7x4 layout, play is straightforward. There are 50 paylines paying left to right, so you want four or more lows or three or more highs landing from reel one. Wins equal the paytable value multiplied by your chosen stake. You pick between 1–10 bet levels and coin values from €0.01 to €20, giving a total bet from €0.25 up to €5,000 per spin. Tap Play for a single round, set Autoplay, or hit the lightning bolt for faster reels.

Daruma Impact Slot RTP & Volatility

This one swings hard. Daruma Impact is highly volatile, with an RTP that varies by market from 86.01% up to 98.32%. The top potential reaches 40,143x the stake, while the random wheel alone can strike prizes up to x10,000. Between the feature buy at 59.08x and the optional Super Bet that doubles the stake for stronger feature odds, bankroll planning matters. I treated the base as a setup phase and let the multipliers in free games do the heavy lifting.

The Final Verdict on Daruma Impact

As a themed package, Daruma Impact sits a touch off the beaten path, yet the mix of mega symbols, a random prize wheel, and a multiplier-laced bonus keeps the pace lively. The 7x4 grid with 50 lines suits the big blocks, and the soundtrack sets a steady mood. I did find some symbol clarity issues at first, though that faded once the colours and pays clicked. Overall the feature set has enough bite to carry long sessions.

For me, the sweet spot was chasing free spins through Super Bet, then letting sticky Wild multipliers climb. The wheel adds a fair sweat between bonuses, and the Buy option is handy when you want to cut the queue. Stakes can run high, so I kept to clear limits and looked for runs where mega tiles were showing. If you like Asian themes and big-swing maths, Daruma Impact earns a seat in the rotation.
