Our take

Hacksaw Gaming's 6-reel Hackways cluster-pays slot with 94.37% RTP, 10,000× max win, and high volatility.

Toshi Ways Club is Hacksaw Gaming's latest release (December 2025) and a sequel to 2021's Toshi Video Club. The Hackways system underpins the core mechanic: each reel can expand between 2 and 10 symbols, generating anywhere from 64 to 1,000,000 ways to win. Symbols cascade when they form clusters, with winning symbols removed and new ones tumbling into place—a foundation for chained payouts.

The design draws heavily on Japanese folklore: lucky cats, samurai masks, dragons, and a playful octopus-in-a-can symbol populate the 6-reel grid. The theme feels cohesive without veering into cliché, and the neon aesthetic reinforces the Tokyo setting.

High volatility means bankroll swings are pronounced. Three levels of free spins offer differing multiplier structures, and symbol transformations can upgrade symbols mid-spin to unlock higher-value clusters. With a 94.37% RTP and 10,000× max win, the game targets players comfortable with long dry spells in exchange for potentially large cluster payouts.

Pros

  • Hackways system creates 1,000,000 ways to win when all reels expand to maximum 10 symbols
  • Cascading and symbol-transformation mechanics deliver chained payouts from a single spin
  • High volatility suits players seeking substantial swings and large cluster wins

Cons

  • 94.37% RTP is below the 95%+ standard of peer-group Megaways and cluster-pays slots
  • High volatility can produce prolonged dry spells; medium-bankroll players may find sessions expensive
  • Reel expansion variance means actual win frequency fluctuates significantly between sessions
