How to Play

• The slot features 5 reels and each spin displays 4 symbols per reel.
• Players may choose bets between £0.20 and £5.00 per spin.
• The RTP is viewable within the game interface.

Paylines and Winning Combinations

• There are 20 paylines that run from left to right across the reels.
• Wins occur when matching symbols appear on consecutive reels starting from the first reel, along a payline.
• Payouts for multiple paylines are added together and awarded based on the total bet.
• All win combinations and their payouts follow the game’s paytable.

Wild Symbols

• Wilds can land on any of the 5 reels.
• Wilds substitute for all non-special symbols to help complete winning combinations.
• If a sequence of wilds is interrupted by a special symbol, wins are calculated as per the paytable.

Morphic Multipliers Feature

• Three Gold Wagons and a Gold Train are positioned beside the reels, each displaying multipliers: x2, x3, x4, or x5.
• When playing for the first time at a specific bet level, none of the Gold Wagons or Train are highlighted. All Hold & Win symbols feature a x1 multiplier initially.
• After completing a Hold & Win session, the leftmost Gold Wagon becomes lit at x2, enabling x2 multipliers for Hold & Win symbols.
• The progression for unlocking multipliers is as follows:
  • After one Hold & Win feature: 1x and 2x multipliers become available.
  • After two Hold & Win features: 1x, 2x, and 3x multipliers become available.
  • After three Hold & Win features: 1x, 2x, 3x, and 4x multipliers become available.
  • After four Hold & Win features: 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, and 5x multipliers become available.

Hold & Win Bonus

• The Hold & Win bonus is triggered by landing 6 or more Hold & Win symbols on the reels in a single spin.
• Hold & Win symbols include:
  • Special Bonus symbol
  • Special Mini, Minor, Major, or Mega Hold & Win Prize symbols
• Special Bonus symbols can carry base cash values of 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 7x, 8x, 9x, or 10x your stake.
• When Hold & Win starts:
  • You are awarded 3 respins.
  • Paylines are inactive during this feature.
• During Hold & Win, only the following symbols appear:
  • Special Bonus symbols
  • Special Mini, Minor, Major, or Mega Hold & Win Prize symbols
  • Blank symbols
• Any Hold & Win symbol that lands during the feature is locked in place.
• Each time a non-blank symbol lands, the respin count resets to 3.
• The Hold & Win feature ends when either:
  • No respins remain
  • The board is entirely filled with Hold & Win symbols
• If the board is fully covered by Hold & Win symbols, the Grand Jackpot of 5000x stake is awarded.

Ante Bet Option

• The RTP is the same for the Ante Bet as in the regular game modes.
• Activating Ante Bet increases the bet cost to 1.5x the chosen stake per spin. Wins are calculated based on the stake without including the extra cost.
• Ante Bet doubles the chance of triggering the Hold & Win bonus feature.

Coin Shower Feature

• At random, landing at least one Hold & Win symbol during a spin can cause more Hold & Win symbols to be added to the reels.
• This will result in enough symbols on the board to trigger the Hold & Win bonus.

Maximum Payouts and Important Information

• The maximum possible cumulative payout in the game is 5200x the stake.
• If this payout is reached, any further spins are discontinued and the maximum payout is granted.
• Different reel sets are used for Base Game and Hold & Win features.
