About the Game
- Catalyst Zones & Reel Multipliers. Before each spin, one position on each reel is designated as a Catalyst Zone. If a winning symbol lands on a Catalyst Zone, the multiplier for that reel is increased by +1. This applies to all winning cascades within a single spin, allowing multipliers to be increased multiple times if Catalyst Zone positions are reactivated.
- Three Bonus Games. Crack the code and unlock the bonus games E=mc2, Eureka, or Hidden Infinity!
- Maximum Win Formula. A maximum win of 10,000 times your bet is the only amount that matters!

Game Rules
The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols in the paytable except FS Scatter symbols. The Wild symbol can only appear on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Reel Multipliers
On every spin, the Reel Multiplier system is displayed above the reels. At the start of each spin in the base game, multipliers start at: (x1, x1, x1, x1, x1]
During each spin, one symbol on each reel is highlighted in a frame. These highlighted positions are called Catalyst Zones, meaning that there are always 5 zones active in each spin.
When a win is formed, any winning symbol landing in a Catalyst Zone increases the multiplier above the corresponding reel by +1.
After wins are calculated, symbols cascade into the empty spaces. Catalyst Zones do not move during cascades.
This process repeats until no new wins are formed.
At the end of each winning combination, the Reel Multipliers above the reels that contributed to that winning combination are multiplied together to form a common multiplier. The win total for that winning combination is then multiplied by the common multiplier.
Each winning combination is evaluated independently. If multiple winning symbols occur during a single spin or cascading sequence, Each winning combination uses only the Reel Multipliers of the reels that contributed to that particular win. There is no limit on the value of Reel Multipliers or the number of cascades that can occur until no more winning combinations appear or until the maximum win is reached.
Example: If a winning combination is formed on reels 1, 2 and 3, and the corresponding Reel Multipliers are [x2, x3, x2], the total multiplier is calculated as follows: 2 x 3 x 2 = x12, and the win amount for that winning combination is multiplied by x12; Reel Multipliers reset to x1 at the start of each spin in the main game, while during the Bonus Game rounds, Reel Multipliers are retained between spins and do not reset.
Catalyst Zones
Before each spin, one position on each reel is designated as the Catalyst Zone. This is indicated by a visible frame around the symbol position, resulting in a total of five Catalyst Zone positions active in each spin.
When a win is achieved, each winning symbol landing in the Catalyst Zone triggers a corresponding Reel Multiplier. The current win is first calculated and paid using the active Reel Multiplier values. After a payout, each triggered Reel Multiplier is increased by +1.
After a payout, winning symbols are removed and replaced by new symbols cascading in their place. Catalyst Zone positions remain fixed and do not move during cascades.
This mechanic applies to every cascade within a single spin. If new winning combinations are formed, the same sequence is repeated for each cascade. Multiple Catalyst Zone positions can contribute to increasing the Reel Multiplier within a single cascade, and the same Catalyst Zone can trigger multiple times in consecutive cascades.
Multiple Catalyst Zone positions can simultaneously contribute to multipliers within a single cascade, and the same Catalyst Zone can be activated multiple times in consecutive cascades.
This sequence continues until no more wins are generated.
Bonus Game
E = mc2
The E=mc2 bonus is activated by landing 3 FS Scatter symbols and awards 8 free spins.
Reel Multipliers do not carry over from the base game to E=mc2. At the start of the feature, all Reel Multipliers start at x1.
During the E=mc2 bonus, the main mechanics of the base game remain active. Each reel has one Catalyst Zone per spin, and any winning symbol landing in the Catalyst Zone increases the multiplier for that reel by +1x.
Winning symbols are removed after each win, and cascades occur as usual. Catalyst Zone positions remain fixed during cascades and can be activated multiple times in a single spin.
Reel Multipliers are not reset between free spins, allowing them to accumulate throughout the feature.
Landing additional FS Scatter symbols during the E=mc2 bonus awards additional free spins as follows:
2 FS Scatter symbols: +2 free spins
3 FS Scatter symbols: +3 free spins
4 FS Scatter symbols: +4 free spins
5 FS Scatter symbols: +5 free spins
Eureka
The Eureka Bonus is activated by landing 4 FS Scatter symbols and awards 8 free spins.
During the Eureka Bonus, the basic E = mc2 mechanics remain active, with the only addition being that all Reel Multipliers start at x2.
Reel Multipliers do not carry over from the base game to Eureka.

4 FS Scatter symbols: +4 free spins
5 FS Scatter symbols: +5 free spins
Hidden Infinity
The Hidden Infinity Bonus is activated by landing 5 FS Scatter symbols and awards 8 free spins.

Win Ways
The stated winning combination requirements in the main game also apply during bonus features or free spins, unless otherwise stated. Each bet entitles you to all winning combinations, unless otherwise stated.
You win when matching symbols appear on adjacent reels from left to right, starting with the leftmost reel. Each winning combination of matching symbols creates a winning method.
The number of possible winning ways in this game is 243. The number of each symbol required to win is specified in the paytable.
After each win, the symbols in the winning combination are removed and new ones appear. This continues until there are no more new wins remaining on the reels.
