Combination

This feature causes 4 or more identical symbols to appear adjacent vertically or horizontally to form a cluster. This cluster is a winning combination. After a win, some of the cluster symbols disappear, and the remaining symbols become symbols of the next level. The game has 9 symbol levels. The winning amount depends on the level and number of symbols joining together.

Bomb Symbol

When a winning cluster is formed from level 8 symbols, 1 Bomb symbol is created. An explosion occurs, 8 symbols around the Bomb disappear, the empty spaces are filled with new symbols, and the Bomb turns into a Scatter symbol. After the Bomb explodes, the multipliers of the cells where the symbols were destroyed increase by 1 (for example, a multiplier of 2x would become 4x). Bomb symbols appearing in the Bonus Game 3 are special Bombs that do not turn into Scatter symbols. They explode, generating multipliers for the Bonus Game.

Scatter Symbol

Scatter symbols can appear on the reels or be formed by a bomb explosion. Three or more scatter symbols trigger the free spins round. Three scatter symbols award 12 free spins, four scatter symbols award 15 free spins, five scatter symbols award 20 free spins, and six or more scatter symbols award 30 free spins.

Multiplier Function

Cells that formed a winning cluster are marked. If a marked cell is again part of a winning cluster, it receives a multiplier of 2x. Thus, the multiplier for a marked cell increases by 2x with each new win. The multiplier is applied to the winning combination in which it is part, but the newly acquired multiplier will only apply to the next winning combination in which it is part. Multiple multipliers in a single cluster are cumulative. The maximum multiplier in a single cell is 128x. Cells remain marked until the end of the spin.

Free Spins

During the Free Spins round, the cell that formed a winning cluster remains marked until the end of the round, and the multiplier progression continues until the end of the round. If 3 or more Scatter symbols appear on the reels in a single spin during the round, the player receives 5 additional free spins.

Buy Bonus

The player can purchase a bonus game. The bonus game can be purchased in 3 options:

• Bonus Game 1 — a standard free spins round.
• Bonus Game 2 — a free spins round with a starting multiplier of x2 in each cell.
• Bonus Game 3 — before the free spins round begins, 3 to 9 bombs appear on the reels. The bombs explode, generating multipliers that carry over into the free spins round. If multiple multipliers appear in one cell, they are summed up.

Chance x2

The game offers the option to purchase the “Chance x2” feature. This slightly increases the bet and gives the player a better chance of triggering the bonus game. This feature is disabled when the “Buy Bonus” feature is active.
