The game is played on a 7×7 grid of symbols. All symbols pay in blocks of a minimum of 5 symbols connected horizontally or vertically. There is a BONUS symbol that appears on all reels and collects in a meter during full tumble sequences.
Whenever a cluster of symbols hits, it leaves behind a WILD symbol in a random spot. These WILDs substitute for all symbols except the BONUS. Each cluster progresses a feature for subsequent tumbles, increasing levels up to a maximum of level 5:
Multipliers apply to the cluster they are part of, and multiple WILDs in winning clusters add their multipliers together. Progress resets after all tumbles from the same spin.
After every spin, winning combinations are paid, and symbols disappear. The remaining symbols fall to fill the gaps, with new symbols appearing from above. Tumbling continues until no more winning combinations appear. Wins are added to the player’s balance after all tumbles.
Trigger Free Spins by hitting 3 BONUS symbols across a tumble sequence. This starts with 12 free spins, and WILDs generated in clusters are always level 5 during the feature. Retrigger the feature by hitting 3 more BONUS symbols to get 5 additional free spins. Special reels are in play during this feature.
Wins are capped at 10,000 times the bet in both the base game and free spins. If this cap is reached in a Free Spins round, the round ends immediately, awarding the win and forfeiting remaining spins.
This is a high volatility game with the potential for significant wins over a short time. Only the highest win per combination is paid. Wins are multiplied by the base bet and expressed in coins. The RTP value is shown in-game.
