About the Game

Reel Rush™ XXXtreme is a 5-reel video slot with multipliers, re-spins with expanding reels, Mystery features, free spins and an Elevate feature with three types of XXXtreme spins.

Video

The reels in the main game are arranged in a pattern where reels 1 and 5 are 1 row high, reels 2 and 4 are 3 rows high and reel 3 is 5 rows high.

The game is played using up to 3,125 bet paths and different bet values. Matching symbols in any position on three or more adjacent reels, starting from the leftmost reel to the rightmost reel, with no gaps, results in a bet path win. More bet path wins are created when additional instances of a symbol appear on the same reels, creating the longest bet path win. Only the longest matching combination per symbol is paid. Simultaneous wins on different bet paths are added together.

A bet path win is equal to the value shown in the paytable, multiplied by any applicable multiplier. The symbol payout values ​​shown in the paytable are dynamic and change according to the bet value selected.

Bet Ways Calculation Example

The longest winning combination of pineapple symbols is 3 symbols on reels 1–3. The number of winning bet ways is calculated by multiplying the number of pineapple symbols on each of those reels: 1 x 1 x 3 = 3 winning bet ways.

Wild Symbols

Wild symbols can appear in the main game and in Free Spins on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5. Wild symbols substitute for all symbols except Mystery Features symbols.

Replacing the Wild symbol ensures the payout of the highest possible winning combination at the bet according to the payout table.

Re-Spins and the Expanding Reels Feature

In the main game, a winning combination activates one Re-Spin, up to a maximum of 5 Re-Spins. For each Re-Spin, two additional positions on the reels are opened simultaneously, and the number of possible betting methods increases until Free Spins are activated, according to the table below:

Spin	Reels	Bet ways
Initital Spin		45
First Re-Spin		135
Second Re-Spin		405
Third Re-Spin		675
Fourth Re-Spin		1125
Fifth Re-Spin		1875
Free Spins		3125

Re-Spins end when there are no more winning combinations in the Re-Spin or when all positions on the reels have been revealed. Re-Spins are played at the same bet as the round that activated the Re-Spins. At the end of the Re-Spins, the total winnings from it are added to any winnings from the round that activated the Re-Spins.

Mystery Features

During the re-spin, each new position opened can reveal one regular mystery feature or one golden mystery feature:

Regular Mystery Features	Regular Mystery Features	Action
	Multiplier +1	Each of them increases the game’s main multiplier at the top of the reels (set to x1 by default) by 1. The new multiplier is applied from the next win.
	Wild	Each of them places a Wild symbol in its position for the next re-spin.
	Bomb	Each of them opens an additional pair of positions on the reels. If there are no more positions on the reels to open, each bomb gives an additional free spin when the free spins begin.

Golden Mystery Features	Golden Mystery Features	Action
	Multiplier +10	Each of them increases the game’s main multiplier at the top of the reels (set to x1 by default) by 10. The new multiplier is applied from the next win.
	Sticky Wild	Each of them places a Sticky Wild symbol on its position. The Sticky Wild symbol remains on the reels until the end of the round.
	Expanding Wild Reel	Each Wild symbol present on the reels expands to cover all positions on the corresponding reels starting with the next Re-Spin. The feature remains active until the end of that round, so any Wild symbol that lands on that reel will also expand to cover the reel.

If a Sticky Wild symbol appears on the same reel where an Expanding Wild Reel symbol appears, a Sticky Wild Reel is created. The Sticky Wild Reel has Wild symbols in all of its positions and remains on the reels until the end of the round.

Free Spins

Once all reel positions have been revealed in the base game, 7 Free Spins are activated on a 5-reel, 5-row play area. Each Bomb landed in the last pair of positions to be revealed on the reels awards an additional Free Spin.

Any Multiplier, Sticky Wild, Expanding Wild Reels and Sticky Wild Reels won in the base game are carried over into the Free Spins, as well as any Wild won during the last re-spin before the Free Spins were activated.

The Free Spins are played at the same stake as the round that activated the Free Spins, and the Free Spins end when the Free Spins counter reaches 0. At the end of the Free Spins, the total winnings from the Free Spins are added to any winnings from the round that activated the Free Spins, and the game returns to the round that activated the Free Spins.

Elevate Feature

Game features can be activated using the Elevate feature. In the Elevate feature, one of the following features can be activated per game round:

	XXXtreme Spins 1	At 3x the bet, 1 Golden Mystery Feature is guaranteed to be revealed.
	XXXtreme Spins 2	At 25x your bet, at least 1 Golden Mystery Feature is guaranteed to be triggered, plus one Mystery Feature will be triggered on each covered position on the reels.
	XXXtreme Spins 3	At 200x your bet, 4 Gold Mystery Features and one regular Mystery Feature are guaranteed to be revealed on each covered position on the reels.

Paylines

The game is played using up to 3,125 bet ways. Matching symbols in any position on three or more adjacent reels, from the leftmost reel to the rightmost reel, with no gaps, result in a bet way win. Only the longest matching combination per symbol is paid. A malfunction voids all payouts and games. For more information, see Unfinished Game Rounds.
