The game’s advanced story reminds of a video game where you can unlock four characters with their own special abilities to activate powerful features.

If you get the orbs to roll just your way, you unlock the free spins feature with a multiplier added to each win.

You can create in many ways, where you’ll need to land at least 3 of the same symbols in a line, either horizontally or diagonally. To spin the reels, the player needs to bet at least the Min.bet of 0.10 and at most the Max.bet of 100. The game has medium volatility and an RTP of 96.98%. The lucky player who solves all the puzzles of the secret order can score the max win of 25471X the bet.

Hidden symbols and magic orbs are concealed in this cult society. The features needed to solve all mysteries are Cascade Wins, Wild Symbol, Orb Symbols, Orb Feature, Ring Symbol, Character Feature, and Free Games.

The Shadow Order Slot Information

Push Gaming delivers a complete story with many details in this casino slot. We are outside a big house, maybe a castle, with some green bushes and a fountain in the garden. It’s nighttime, and some light is flickering from the house’s windows. On top of the grid are the three Orb Symbols that can drop down on any position during the game. To the left is an Illuminati triangle telling the player what is needed to activate the Free Games. To the right of the reels stands Molly the Messenger, who can be replaced by the three other characters by collecting Ring Symbols. All the buttons needed to play the game are located at the bottom of the screen, and the music is lowkey with a mystic touch. To make a win, you’ll need to land at least 3 of the same symbols in a line, either horizontally or diagonally. It doesn’t matter on what reel and row a winning line starts and ends. You can play this game on desktops, notepads, and mobile phones.

There are 9 ordinary paying symbols in this game. The least valuable ones are wax seals saying Q, K, and A. They pay between 1X to 2X the bet for landing 5. The medium-paying symbols are the chess pieces knight, bishop, and king. They pay from 6X to 10X the bet for 5 in a row. The most valuable symbols are a cylinder containing code, the book of the Illuminati, and a gold ring. Landing 5 of those will give you between 60X and 120X the bet. The Wild Symbol is an order medal, substituting for all mentioned symbols. Landing 5 order medals result in a win of 300X the bet. The 3 Orb Symbols at the top of the game become wild symbols with special powers when they fall down on the grid. If the 3 orbs make a line on their own, they pay 5X the bet. There’s also a Ring Symbol that is used to level up by activating the other characters.

The Shadow Order Slot Features

What is the max win in the slot The Shadow Order?

You can win up to 25471X the bet.

What features are available in the slot The Shadow Order?

The features are Cascade Wins, Wild Symbol, Orb Symbols, Orb Feature, Ring Symbol, Character Feature, and Free Games.

Cascade Wins

Whenever a win is made, either in the base game or the free spins, all the winning symbols except Orb Symbols will disappear, and the symbols above will fall down, giving room for new symbols to come in from the top. If a new win is being made with the new constellation on the grid, the winning symbols will once again disappear, and the cascading wins continue until no more wins can be made.

Wild Symbol

The order medal is the most valuable symbol of the game, paying 300X for landing 5. It is also the wild symbol substituting for all the 9 regular paying symbols.

Orb Symbols

The 3 sparkling blue, green, and purple orbs are wild symbols, substituting all paying symbols. They don’t appear on the reels as the other symbols during spins but can be added during the Orb Feature. They also have their own special abilities during that feature.

Orb Feature

The orbs become active and roll down on the grid after being charged by cascading wins. The blue Orb of Destruction is always activated first, followed by the green Orb of Creation and the purple Orb of Preservation. You’ll need 3 cascading wins to activate the first orb, and then 2 more cascades per each orb, meaning that all of them will be on the grid after 7 cascading wins.

Each orb drops on the first open position from the left, then moves downward and to the right until a present symbol stops it. The orbs are wild symbols, substituting for all other symbols. The orbs stay on the grid as long as the cascade wins continues, even if they are part of a win. The goal is to get all the orbs to the bottom right position, which will activate the free spins. There are also 3 hotspots on the grid, positioned on reels 1, 3, and 5. If any of the orbs ends up on a hotspot, they will trigger their special feature when no more cascade wins can be made. The feature opens for more wins and gives the player an extra chance to activate the free spins. This is what the orbs do:

Orb of Destruction = Destroys all low-paying symbols and allows new symbols to fall in from above.

Orb of Creation = Adds 3-6 Wild Symbols anywhere on the grid.

Orb of Preservation = Holds the highest paying symbol on the grid and removes all others except Orb symbols. When new symbols fall in, any win is being collected as usual before the orb again removes all symbols except the ones held. This cascade continues until no more type of the held symbol falls in.

The orbs go back to their positions if no more cascading wins can be made or if they reach the bottom right corner of the grid. If all orbs reach the bottom right corner, the Illuminati triangle will be fully lit, telling the player that the Free Games are being activated.  

Ring Symbol

This symbol is depicted by a blue and golden ring with ornaments and a crown. The symbol can appear during any spin, but there can never be more than one ring at a time.

Character Feature

The game has four characters with their own unique features that are being activated randomly. You can only play with one character at a time, and you need to collect a certain number of Ring Symbols to activate each character except the starting character Molly the Messenger. These are the characters, their randomly activated specialties, and how many Ring Symbols you need to activate them:

Molly the Messenger (activated from the start) = Fully charges the Orb of Destruction and clears the top row, allowing the orb to fall in.  

Billy the Gambler (20 Ring Symbols to activate) = Converts the low-paying symbols on the grid into the highest paying symbol present.

Archie the Spy (50 Ring Symbols to activate) = Adds 1 wild symbol to each reel.

Amarillo the Magister (90 Ring Symbols to activate) = Removes all low- and mid-paying symbols and creates a cascade without low- and mid-paying symbols.  

Free Games

We have now taken a step into the house, watching a conference table in the background of the reels. This feature is activated by landing all 3 orbs in the bottom of the so-called Collection Tile on the bottom position of the rightmost reel. You’ll be awarded 5 spins, and the orbs will be fully charged throughout the feature. The orbs are sticky, staying in their positions during spins, and if you manage to get all 3 orbs to the Collection Tile during the free spins, you’ll be awarded 2 extra free spins while the orbs move up to their start position, ready to drop down on the grid again.

The Shadow Order Slot Conclusion

If you’re tired of the usual video slot and want something extra while you’re spinning, this game is for you. The graphics look nice, and the four characters make the story even more exciting and complete. It resembles, in some way, the vampire slot Immortal Romance where we get to follow the main character solving puzzles while we’re spinning the wheel, kind of like in a video game. The mystical music puts a nice final touch to the gaming experience. We don’t know exactly what the Shadow Order is trying to achieve, though, but that just makes it even more mystical.

The cascading cluster wins help push up the excitement, and the three orbs are a great and innovative way to activate a free spins feature. The features of the orbs are also well constructed, all improving the game in different ways. The RTP of 96.98% in this secret history is excellent, undoubtedly putting it in the top of the video slots with the highest RTP out there. The bet ranges from 0.10 to 100 is also well-sized, making the game suitable for many players. Although a lot is going on, the wins are not crazy high and not too far apart. With that in consideration is the max win of 25471X the bet way higher than expected.  

The Shadow Order from Push Gaming is an exceptionally well-done casino slot where sparkling orbs and secret rings help us figure out the mysteries of a hidden order.
