Bonus Features:

The Free Spins bonus is activated when you collect three or more of the “Warning Sign” symbols. You are then awarded a number of free spins and the “Warning Sign” symbol becomes Wild. You cannot re-trigger free spins during this bonus.

The game’s main bonus is triggered when you collect three or more of the “Rocket” symbols. You’ll know you’ve done this because the rocket in your final reel will launch itself across the other reels, signalling the start of the bonus. The earth then begins to move past you and a rocket comes into view. Your mission is to land the rocket on the moon. To do so you must choose spots on a grid for your rockets and hope that you can avoid any meteors. With each success the size of the grid will reduce making it less likely that you will choose a spot that the meteors miss. If you are successful you will land on the moon and land yourself a cash prize.
