Wild Symbol
The “WILD” symbol substitutes for all symbols except the “Scatter” symbol.
Scatter Symbol
3 or more “SCATTERS” trigger 5 Free Spins.
Free Spins
5 Free Spins are triggered by landing 3 or more SCATTER symbols or by filling the Charge Up meter. The player activates unlocked upgrades when triggering Free Spins. Free Spins are played with the same bet as in the base game at the time the spins were activated. Free Spins cannot be retriggered.
Charge Up™
Each SCATTER symbol is added to the Charge Up meter. The Charge Up meter is full after collecting 20 SCATTER symbols. When the Charge Up meter is full, 1 of 3 Charge Up upgrades is unlocked OR Free Spins are triggered.
The 3 possible Charge Up upgrades are:
- ADDED WILDS
- During any spin during the Free Spins round, 1, 2, or 3 WILD symbols can be randomly added to any position on the reels.
- INFLUENTIAL
- Any CHIHUAHUA, TEQUILA, HOT SAUCE, or CACTUS symbol adjacent to a WILD symbol also turns WILD.
- “Adjacent” symbols include positions 1 space to the left, right, up, down, and diagonally from the WILD symbol (up to 8 positions in total).
- MULTIPLIER
- Each free spin multiplies all wins by x2, x3, or x5.
- FREE SPINS with combined features:
- Collected SCATTER symbols are saved separately for each bet level.
- At each bet level, all upgrades are initially locked.
- Any SCATTER symbol that appears is added to the Charge Up meter.
- If the Charge Up meter is filled, one upgrade is unlocked.
- If Free Spins are awarded, excess SCATTER symbols are saved and counted after the Free Spins feature ends.
- If 3 or more SCATTER symbols appear, they are collected in the Charge Up meter, and Free Spins are automatically triggered.
- SCATTER symbols appear only during the main game.
- Upgrades are activated when the Free Spins feature is triggered at the same bet level at which they were unlocked.
- Each upgrade can be unlocked once per bet level until the Free Spins feature is triggered at that level.
If multiple enhancements are applied during Free Spins:
- First, random Wild symbols are activated.
- Then, powerful Wild symbols are applied.
- After that, multipliers are applied.
- Finally, all winnings are calculated.
Paylines
The player selects the Total Bet size to play Hot Jalapeno Charge Up on 25 lines. Payouts are determined according to the paytable. All wins are multiplied by the total bet. Wins on different lines are summed. Only the highest win on each active line is paid. All wins appear only on the selected lines. Only positions containing a winning symbol are used to determine the win for that symbol. All wins begin on the leftmost reel and pay out left to right across adjacent reels. The “WILD” symbol substitutes for all symbols except the “Scatter.” In the event of a scatter, all spins and payouts are cancelled.
