Symbols

Wild – The Wild symbol will substitute for all paying symbols. Up to 2 can land on the reels in a single spin and if they participate in a win the Wild symbols will not disappear from the reels.

Free Spins – The Free Spins symbol is the “Golden Shield”. Land 3 of them anywhere on the reels at once to trigger the feature. You can also have a Wild symbol substitute for one of the Free Spins symbols, but only when they form within a winning sequence.

Features

Avalanche – After every win the symbols involved will disappear off the reels with new symbols dropping down to replace them. With each drop a multiplier will trigger, beginning at 1x the bet for the first drop and then moving up to 2x, 3x and 5x the bet for each subsequent drop. Once the multiplier hits 5x the bet it will plateau. The multipliers available in the Free Spins are worth more.

Free Spins – If you trigger the Free Spins feature then you will be given 9 Free Spins for the basic 3 triggering symbols and an additional 3 spins for every triggering symbol above the required 3. During the Free Spins the avalanche multiplier is increased to: 3x, 6x, 9x and 15x the bet.

Earthquake – This is a random feature that will see all low paying symbols replaced with high paying ones.
