Ways to Win

Wins are awarded for 3 or more identical symbols on 3 or more adjacent reels from left to right. Symbols can appear in any position on each reel to form a winning combination. Multiple identical symbols on one reel multiply the win. Multiple wins on different paths are summed up. Only paths of 5 symbols can consist entirely of Wild symbols.

Cascading Wins

Winning symbols disappear from the reels and new symbols appear in their place, filling the empty positions. Cascades continue until winning combinations are finished.

Multipliers

The game features progressive multipliers that accumulate values using framed winning symbols. During a spin, one random symbol appears in a frame on each reel. If the highlighted symbol becomes part of a winning combination, the multiplier on that reel increases by x1. Only one symbol can appear in a frame on each reel during a spin. The multipliers on each reel start at x1. The multipliers are multiplicative. For example: x2 and x3 = x6. The multipliers accumulate throughout the spin and are applied to the corresponding winning combination after each cascade. The multipliers on the reels are reset at the end of each spin in the main game.

Free Spins

8 free spins are awarded to the player if 3 Scatter symbols appear anywhere on the field during one spin in the main game.

For each additional Scatter, the player receives +2 spins. Free spins are played with the same bet as the round that launched them. Free spins can be retriggered during the bonus game. During the bonus game, 2 Scatter symbols give +1 additional spin, and then 1 spin for each additional Scatter. For example, 2 Scatter symbols = +1 spin, 3 Scatter symbols = +2 spins, and so on. The number of free spins re-triggers is not limited.

At least 1 Wild symbol is guaranteed to appear in each spin during the bonus game. When the bonus game is launched, the current multiplier value from the main game is transferred to the free spins. The multipliers on the reels continuously grow until the end of the free spins, accumulating their value throughout the bonus game. Multipliers are reset at the end of the bonus game.

Path of Glory

Charged with fiery frames, multipliers on the reels accumulate throughout the spin, leading to unlimited wins.

How to calculate winnings

Winnings in the Colossus game are determined by paths. The maximum number of paths in the game is 243. Wins consist of 3 or more identical symbols and are awarded for combinations of adjacent symbols from left to right. The winning values are indicated in the paytable and depend on the bet on the winning combination. To calculate a single win, count the number of matching symbols in the winning combination and check the paytable. To calculate the total win, count all the wins and add them up. Scatter symbols can appear anywhere on the winning field. If a winning combination begins with several Wild symbols, it can be interpreted differently. In this case, only the highest-paying combination is paid.
