Horizontal Reel

Above the four middle reels is a train with four minecarts. The minecarts deliver items that add additional features to the Dynamite WILD symbol appearing on that reel. The minecarts can award one of the following symbols:

• Empty
• Dynamite Wild Multiplier
• Coin
• Detonator
• Special Prizes

Features are awarded as follows: The Detonator and Dynamite WILD Multiplier symbols award from left to right before payouts. The Coin and Special Prizes award from left to right after payouts.

Dynamite Wild

Appears on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5. Substitutes for all paying symbols. If a non-empty cart lands over a Dynamite WILD symbol, the cart’s contents trigger a bonus feature depending on the level.

Detonator

If the Detonator Cart lands over a Dynamite WILD symbol, the Dynamite WILD symbol explodes before any wins are awarded, creating Gem WILDS symbols depending on the level:

• Silver Level – explodes vertically, creating 3 Gem WILDS symbols. In the middle position of the reel, it turns adjacent symbols above and below it into Gem WILDS symbols. If it lands in the top or bottom position, it turns the 2 positions below (or above, respectively) into Gem WILDS symbols.

• Gold Level – explodes horizontally, creating 3 Gem WILDS symbols. The explosion creates Gem WILDS symbols in the positions to the left and right of it, unless they are Dynamite WILD or FREE SPINS symbols.

• Diamond Level – Explodes on 4 positions diagonally adjacent to the Dynamite WILD symbol that are not outside the playing field and are not Dynamite WILD or FREE SPINS symbols, turning them into Gem WILDS symbols.

Gem Wild

The Gem WILD symbol is created only when a Dynamite WILD symbol explodes, triggered by a detonator. It substitutes for all paying symbols. Both the Dynamite and Gem WILD symbols, when used as substitutes, count as symbols that form the longest winning combination on a single win line.

Coin

If a coin is placed above the Dynamite WILD symbol, after a payout, the Dynamite WILD symbol explodes differently than when a detonator is placed above it, awarding a random number of CASH symbols containing a win multiplier. All CASH symbols that appear are awarded. CASH symbol values ​​can be 0.5x, 1x, 1.5x, 2x, 2.5x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 7x, 8x, or 10x.

Special Prizes

Special prizes are activated when a prize item appears above the Dynamite WILD symbol on the card. Prize items include: silver (MINI), gold (MINOR), green stone (MAJOR), ruby ​​(GRAND), and diamond (MEGA). After winnings are paid out, the Dynamite WILD symbol transforms into the corresponding prize item, and the corresponding prize level is awarded.
The prize values ​​are as follows:

• MEGA Prize – 20,000x
• GRAND Prize – 1,000x
• MAJOR Prize – 100x
• MINOR Prize – 20x
• MINI Prize – 5x

Dynamite Wild Multiplier

If a cart containing a MULTIPLIER lands over a Dynamite WILD symbol, that Dynamite WILD symbol receives a MULTIPLIER. The MULTIPLIER is applied to payouts for wins containing the Dynamite WILD symbol.
MULTIPLIER values ​​depend on the level. Possible values:

• Silver level – x2, x3, x4, x5, x8
• Gold level – x3, x4, x5, x8, x10, x15, x20
• Diamond level – x4, x5, x8, x10, x15, x20, x25, x30, x50

Progression

The game has 3 levels: Silver, Gold, and Diamond.

• The Silver level is low volatility. At the Silver level, dynamite wilds explode vertically with a detonator, revealing gem-shaped wilds and can receive a multiplier of up to x8 from the detonator.
• The Gold level is medium volatility. At the Gold level, dynamite wilds explode horizontally with a detonator, revealing gem-shaped wilds and can receive a multiplier of up to x20 from the detonator.

After the free spins feature in the Gold level, the Diamond level is unlocked. Buttons with level icons are always displayed below the reels. Locked levels are inactive. Players can select any unlocked level by pressing the corresponding level button in idle mode. This will instantly change the level.
