Max Win

The maximum win in Hot Tuna is capped at 2,500x the bet in both the main game and free spins. If the total win during the FREE SPINS ROUND reaches 2,500x the bet, the round ends immediately, the winnings are awarded, and all remaining free spins are cancelled.

Wild

This is the WILD symbol. It appears on all reels only during the FREE SPINS round. It substitutes for all symbols except the SCATTER, MONEY symbol, and HOT TUNA.

Scatter

This symbol is the SCATTER. It appears on all reels.

Money Symbol

These are MONEY symbols. During each spin, the MONEY symbol assumes a random monetary value that can be won during the FREE SPINS feature. Possible values ​​are: 2x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, 100x, or 2500x the total bet.

Free Spins

Collect 3, 4, or 5 SCATTER symbols to trigger the FREE SPINS feature and win 10, 15, or 20 free spins, respectively. Every time two SCATTER symbols appear without a third symbol during the main game, there’s a chance that another symbol will appear on the screen as a result of a random feature:

• If the SCATTER symbols on the screen can move down one position without leaving the reels, a re-spin is triggered, during which the reels with SCATTER symbols move down one position and the reels without SCATTER symbols spin again.
• Also, after the first spin, another SCATTER may appear randomly on the screen.

HOT TUNA symbol

This is the HOT TUNA symbol. It can only appear during the FREE SPINS feature. Each time it lands, it is collected, and a x10 multiplier is applied to the total value of the collected money symbols. If more than one HOT TUNA symbol lands in a single collection, their multipliers are added together.

During the FREE SPINS feature, each WILD symbol awards 1 additional free spin and also collects all MONEY symbols on the screen. If a MONEY symbol lands without a WILD symbol, it accumulates in a meter on the side of the screen. Collect 6 MONEY symbols in each of the 7 meter stages to re-trigger the feature and receive 10 additional free spins and a HOT TUNA symbol, which can land randomly on each spin. Each time the meter fills, an additional 10 free spins are awarded, and an additional HOT TUNA symbol can land randomly on each spin. After the first re-trigger, HOT TUNA symbols can also accumulate in the meter. Any additional MONEY or HOT TUNA symbols collected beyond the required number to fill the final stage are carried over to the first stage of the next progression meter.

At random, when there are no WILD or MONEY symbols on the screen, WILD, MONEY, and HOT TUNA symbols may appear in random positions at the end of a free spin. HOT TUNA symbols can only appear if the feature has been retriggered at least once. Special reels are included in the game.

Buy Free Spins

The FREE SPINS round can be instantly triggered from the main game by purchasing it for 100x your current total bet. When purchasing the FREE SPINS round, 3, 4, or 5 Scatter symbols may randomly appear in the triggering spin.

• 10x bet multiplier. SCATTER appears for a higher chance of winning free spins. More symbols appear on the reels. The “BUY FREE SPINS” feature is disabled.
