User Guide / Rules

1.         OVERVIEW

The goal is to obtain a winning combination on a winning line spread across the reels.

2.         GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS

Note: The Default coin value* and Default coins bet* apply to the first time the game is loaded. The coin value, number of coins and active lines used in the last game played are saved automatically before closing the game session. When a new game session is started, the saved values are loaded so you can continue where you left off.

The Jackpot* is the amount won when the winning combination with the highest gain appears. The Jackpot is available only when playing the maximum number of coins.

Note: The game will disconnect if no actions are taken for 15 consecutive minutes; the session recovery feature will save the game progress so that the next time the game is loaded, you can continue where you left off.

In the event of technical difficulties resulting a dropped connection to the game server, the game you were playing is saved automatically and will load the next time you establish a connection to the game server. You will not be able to reconnect to the game server for the first 30 seconds after the disconnection.

2.1.     Disconnection during the game

• Disconnection while reels are spinning – once the player logs back to the game, the spin will have been completed. If the game was not completed, the player needs to complete it. If the game was completed and a win is involved, the prize will have been added to the balance.
• Disconnection after the reels stopped spinning – the game resumes from the point of disconnection using the previous settings.

6.         SYMBOLS

• Wild Reel – this symbol appears only during free spins and can replace any other symbol except Wild multiplier, Scatter and Bonus; when this symbol appears, it will remain throughout the free spins
  Note: More than one Wild Reel symbols can appear during free spins.
• Wild – replaces any symbols except Wild Reel, Wild multiplier, Scatter and Bonus.
• The Wild multiplier symbols replace any symbol except Wild, Wild Reel, Scatter and Bonus.
  The number shown on the multiplier symbol will multiply the wins per line.
  If more than one multiplier symbol are present on a winning active line, the total multiplier will be calculated by multiplying the numbers shown on the Wild multiplier symbols.
  Example: a three symbol combination in which one symbol is a normal symbol, and two symbols are X3, the total multiplier is X9.
• Scatter symbols: the scatter winnings are multiplied by the amount bet.

o     3 Scatter symbol – x5 the amount bet

o     4 Scatter symbols – x10 the amount bet

o     5 Scatter symbols – x25 the amount bet

• Bonus: three bonus symbols award 5, 8 or 15 free spins (depending on the player’s choice during the bonus round) per normal spin.

Note: During the free spins, you are not allowed to change the coin value. The bonus can be won during free spins.

The Scatters and Bonus symbols pay anywhere on the reels.

7.         PAYTABLE

The winning combinations and gains are shown below:

When any symbol is clicked in the main game screen, the possible winning combinations and gains for that symbol are shown. To close the symbol mini-paytable, click it a second time. The mini-paytable feature is not available during free spins.

All winning lines pay from left to right.

Wins on different selected lines are all added.

Scatters/ bonus are added to payline wins or equivalent.

The paytable lists the prizes for winning combinations; only the highest winning combination on each selected line is paid.

All prizes shown in the paytable are in coins.

The amount bet in Euros is displayed in the Bet meter and is the number of coins bet multiplied by the coin value multiplied by the number of lines selected.

The amount won in Euros is displayed in the Winnings meter and is the number of coins bet per line multiplied by the coin value multiplied by the payout in the paytable.

The Line win in coins is the Number of coins times the Paytable value times ANY applicable multiplier.

The Line win in currency is the Line win in coins times the Coin value.

8.         BONUS

Three or more Bonus symbols award 5, 8 or 15 free spins (depending on the player’s choice during the bonus round) in Base game and in Free spins.

Once the Bonus round is started, the player has to choose the desired Free Spins from:

• 5 Free Spins with a 6X multiplier
• 8 Free Spins with a 3X multiplier
• 15 Free Spins with a 1X multiplier

These multipliers apply only to the specific free spins.

The Free Spins multipliers do not apply to Scatter wins and Bonus symbols.

Note: The Free Spins awarded by the Bonus round are played with the same bet lines, bet per line and coin value as the round activated the Free Spins.

The Bonus can be won indefinitely during free spins – when three or more Bonus symbols appear scattered on the reels. The multiplier chosen when starting the free spins is valid only for those specific free spins.

Any Bonus won during free spins will be shown on the game window as follows (e.g. two bonus rounds won during free spins).

The Wild Reel symbol can appear on any reel but only during the free spins.

When a Wild Reel symbol appears, it will extend and remain in place until the free games of that type are completed.

The Wild Reel symbol can appear on any reel and more than one can be active at the same time; it replaces any symbol except Wild multipliers, Scatter and Bonus.

If free spins are won during free spins, the extended reels are reset when each set of free spins is completed.

After completing the Free Spins and upon returning to the normal game screen, the winnings are added to the final balance.
