About the Game

• Gigablox symbols on every spin
• Multiply your winnings with Multimax

Welcome to the Pearl Reef Gigablox™ Multimax™ Video Slot from ReelPlay. It features 6 reels, 4 rows, and the following features:

• MULTIMAX™
• GIGABLOX™
• BONUS RE-SPINS

The player selects the Total Bet amount for the 40-line game. The base bet is equal to the total bet divided by 40. Payouts are determined according to the paytable. All wins are multiplied by the total bet. Prizes displayed above the PEARL symbols are multiplied by the total bet. Wins on different lines are summed. Only the highest win on each active line is paid. If multiple wins with the same payout are present on an active line, the one with the fewest symbols 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 start from the leftmost reel and pay from left to right across adjacent reels. The TURTLE Wild substitutes for all symbols except the PEARL. In the event of a crash, all spins and payouts are void.

Bonus Buy

The player can purchase a Bonus Re-Spins round. The purchase price is 3200x the base bet. The game is played with 40x the base bet. A spin occurs, which always results in 6 or more “PEARL” symbols.

RTP

• Average theoretical return to player (RTP): 94.0%
• Theoretical Return to Player for “Buy Bonus”: 94.0%

Expected return is a player’s profit calculated based on a large number of spins made by many players over a long period of time. This value is not affected by player strategy.

Game Rules

Turtle Wild

The TURTLE Wild substitutes for all symbols except the PEARL.

Each TURTLE Wild appearing on the reels increases the multiplier for the leftmost reel it covers by 1. If the TURTLE Wild appears as a Gigablox, the Multimax multiplier increases before the symbol splits into individual symbols to illustrate payline wins.

Pearl

Bonus Re-Spins are activated when 6 or more PEARL symbols appear.

Gigablox

Gigablox are expanded symbols on the reels that function as individual symbols in formations ranging from 2×2 to 4×4. Any symbol, including the TURTLE Wild and PEARL symbols, can appear as a Gigablox. At least one Gigablox reel will appear in each spin.

Explosions

Each winning symbol (except the PEARL) explodes and is replaced by symbols falling from above. When any part of the Gigablox symbol (except the PEARL) is involved in a winning combination, the entire Gigablox symbol explodes. If the explosion creates a space below the Gigablox symbol that is too wide to fit, the Gigablox symbol splits into 1×1 symbols.

Multimax

The Multimax multiplier is displayed for each reel. At the start of each new game, all multipliers are set to 1. Each TURTLE Wild appearing on the reels increases the multiplier for the leftmost reel it covers by 1. If the TURTLE Wild appears as a Gigablox, the Multimax multiplier increases before the symbol splits into individual symbols to illustrate payline wins. For any win where symbols explode, a new TURTLE Wild is added to a random empty position on the reels until new symbols appear. The overall multiplier for a winning combination of an individual symbol is the product of the multipliers of all reels containing the symbol involved in that winning combination. The win for that combination is then multiplied by this overall multiplier.

Bonus Re-spins

Bonus Re-Spins are activated when 6 or more PEARL symbols appear. Three re-spins are awarded. During bonus re-spins, each PEARL awards a random prize. If PEARLS completely fill a 2×2 square or more, they are grouped into a MEGA PEARL.

A MEGA PEARL is an expanded symbol that substitutes for the symbols that were grouped to form it. The prize value of a MEGA PEARL is double the sum of the prize values ​​of all the symbols that combined. 2×2 and 3×3 MEGA PEARLS can be grouped with other PEARLS/MEGA PEARLS to form larger MEGA PEARLS. MEGA PEARLS cannot be split to form larger MEGA PEARLS. MEGA PEARL creations are processed in order of increasing size, with larger sizes processed first. MEGA PEARL creations are processed in order from top to bottom, then left to right. All PEARL/MEGA PEARL symbols are held, and all remaining positions are spun.

When new PEARL symbols appear, they are held, and the re-spins are reset to 3. Each new TURTLE Wild symbol increases the Multimax multiplier for the reel it lands on by 1, and the number of re-spins is reset to 3. MEGA PEARLS are processed during each re-spin. Re-Spins end when the number of Re-Spins reaches 0 or when all positions contain a PEARL/MEGA PEARL. After Re-Spins end, the prize on each PEARL/MEGA PEARL is multiplied by the Multimax multiplier of each reel it appears on and paid out. PEARL prizes in multiples of the total bet: 1x, 1.25x, 1.5x, 2x, 2.5x, 3x, 3.5x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 7x, 8x, 9x, 10x, 12x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 30x, 40x, 50x, 75x, 100x.
