Bonus Features

Wild Symbol Function

The game logo serves as a substitute for other symbols, helping players create winning combinations by replacing any of them. Its appearance can lead to generous payouts and trigger special features like the Scatters function (explained below).

Scatter

Scatter symbol is the ‘Free Spins’ egg icon – when it lands three or more times anywhere on reels 1 through 5 within a single spin, this activates the Bonus Free Spin round.

Bonus Round

Upon activation of free spins from any combination of scatter symbols on all active paylines (ranging between five and thirty total scatters), players will be awarded twelve totally cost-free rounds. In these extra turns, each wild symbol that appears can increase its payout multiplier to as high as ten times the player’s initial bet amount for consecutive wins within one playthrough!

Free Spins Bonus

A maximum number of 12 free spins may occur from five scatter symbols across reels 1-5 – there are additional re-spins granted when extra wilds appear. It is important to remember, bonus rounds do not provide any multiplier or payout benefits if two Scatters land in the middle two positions.

Bonus Round Features & Payout Multipliers

Within bonus free spins:

• Free Spins Mode contains various symbols – regular wins will increase up to ten times (1x-5x bet multiplier). Wilds that appear are still replaced by other icons without altering the player’s winnings.
• Every fifth consecutive wild in any spin awarded during a bonus round increases its payout multiplier from two, three or four up to five times; subsequent successful bets reward double and triple rewards respectively.
