Cauldrons

In the regular game, up to seven Cauldron symbols can appear on the reels in a single spin. Cash prizes are only won during the Hold ‘n’ Win bonus game. When a Cauldron symbol appears on the reels, it fills a large cauldron below the slot and has a chance to trigger the Hold ‘n’ Win bonus game. Graphical changes to the cauldron’s contents are for visual entertainment only and do not affect the likelihood of triggering this feature.

Money Potions

There are Money Potions with a base starting value of 1x the bet above the reels. When a Witch symbol lands on a reel, the value of the Money Potion above the reel increases by 1x, up to a maximum of 10x. Only one Witch symbol can land on the reels per spin. The value of Money Potions remains the same throughout the entire game session.

Hold & Win

The Hold & Win bonus game begins with 3 free spins, and each time a Cauldron, Witch, or Jackpot symbol lands on the reels, the number of spins is reset to the maximum. During the bonus game, only Cauldron, Witch, Jackpot, and blank symbols appear on the reels.

During Hold & Win, multipliers are unlocked near the reels. These multipliers start at x1 and increase by +1 when a Witch symbol lands on an adjacent row, up to a maximum of x5.

During the Hold & Win bonus game, Cauldron symbols award cash prizes worth 1x the bet. If the cash prize values ​​are too high to display, they are displayed as bet multipliers. Up to 3 Cauldron symbols can land on the reels in a single spin.

When a Cauldron or Jackpot symbol lands on the reels, the value of the Money Potion at the top of the reel is added to its win, and then the win is multiplied by the multiplier next to its row. All Cauldron and Jackpot symbols are locked on the reels and remain until the end of the bonus game. Multipliers are reset after the bonus game ends.

When the slot is filled with symbols and no new symbols can appear, the bonus game ends and the Grand Jackpot is awarded. Money Potions and multipliers do not change the size of the Grand Jackpot.

Jackpots

The game features 4 jackpots. When a symbol corresponding to a jackpot appears on the reels, the corresponding prize is awarded. Jackpot symbols can only appear on the reels during the Hold & Win bonus game. The Grand Jackpot is awarded only when the reels are filled with locked symbols during the Hold & Win bonus game.
