The Swordsman RTP (studio benchmark), house edge & 500-spin session math
The Swordsman by High 5 Games benchmarks against the verified 95.93% studio average RTP (4.07% house margin across 24 titles) and suits a 100x–150x stake buffer in NZ$ at Here2Win Casino (here2win.co.nz).
Because the source card for The Swordsman omits an individual percentage, this High 5 Games release is benchmarked against the studio's published range (94.80% to 96.50%). The pokie runs on a 5×3 / 5×4 HTML5 video grid layout, and its variance profile fits a 100x–150x unit-stake reserve when playing The Swordsman in NZ$ at Here2Win Casino (here2win.co.nz).
| Session volume & entity | Total turnover | Theoretical return | House margin | Est. winning spins |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 100 spins on The Swordsman (NZ$1/spin @ 95.93% RTP) | NZ$100 | NZ$95.93 | NZ$4.07 | ~27–33 |
| 250 spins on The Swordsman (NZ$1/spin @ 95.93% RTP) | NZ$250 | NZ$239.82 | NZ$10.17 | ~68–83 |

Questions
Is The Swordsman on the New Zealand list?

Who built this pokie?
High 5 Games. Other High 5 Games pokies for New Zealand are grouped on the provider page.
Does this site take POLi?
Deposit at Here2Win Casino after the button. POLi can be offered there. Fern Spins only names it so the page is clearly the New Zealand catalogue.
Does The Swordsman work on mobile in New Zealand?
Fern Spins does not publish a separate app. Players in Christchurch use the page, then the casino.
Is the stake in NZ$?
You set the NZ$ stake after the handoff. fernspins.co.nz never holds it.

No. The page does not run the reels. The button opens The Swordsman at Here2Win Casino. A practice mode, if the casino offers one, is there.
Why is The Swordsman not scored?
The Swordsman is not placed above or below the rest of the New Zealand list.
Does the pokie remember the last session?
Do not wait out a feature. The pokie is not running late.
Who is The Swordsman for?
Adults, 18+. Fern Spins is a New Zealand catalogue. Gambling can harm, and the page is not a promise of winnings.
What happens when I press play on The Swordsman?
fernspins.co.nz takes the click and Here2Win Casino opens the pokie. The partner address stays off the article.
How many High 5 Games pokies are on this site?
332. They are grouped on the provider page. The Swordsman is a single title in that group, played at Here2Win Casino.
Does Christchurch change the pokie?
No. The same The Swordsman card applies across New Zealand. City is not a reel setting. NZ$ and POLi are the local pieces, and both are settled at Here2Win Casino.

The source card did not publish one. The gap stays empty. A figure is not copied from another pokie to make the page look finished.

So a Kiwi player can see the split. Published facts, such as the studio and any RTP, sit on one side. Gaps and limits sit on the other, including the fact that Fern Spins is not the cashier.
Is the text under the title the preview?
Read it as a card, not as a tip for Christchurch. The pokie does not know the city, and the page does not pretend it does.
How do I open the right The Swordsman?
Use the full name on this card. A shorter search in the Here2Win Casino lobby can open a different High 5 Games title.
How many reels and paylines does The Swordsman have?
A count of free spins and a bonus-buy price are also absent. Those numbers stay off the page.
Why does The Swordsman have no feature list?

How a session moves
Plain version for Fern Spins: limit, spin, stop. That is the whole note.

Stake and POLi
Fern Spins takes no NZ$. POLi, if you use it, is at Here2Win Casino.
POLi and the other rails people in New Zealand already use are handled inside the Here2Win Casino account. fernspins.co.nz never asks for them. The page can name POLi.
Who it suits
