About this Game
This is a 5 reel 4 row video slot game.
The objective of the game is to spin the reels so the symbols land in different combinations.
Winning combinations are highlighted on the reels and a payout is awarded.
Bet Rules
Each spin played costs a total bet amount.
The total bet is based on the initial bet placed, multiplied by the cost of the paylines played.
The initial bet is the current total bet pided by the payline cost of 20.
Payline Rules
This game includes 20 paylines.
The number of paylines played is fixed.
A payline is a pattern of adjacent symbol positions that runs in a line across the reels.
A win is awarded when matching symbols land adjacent to each other on a payline.
Payline wins run from left to right, starting from the first slot reel.
Payout Rules
Payline win payouts are based on the initial bet placed.
The payout value is based on the winning combination formed.
The total payout is the sum of all payline wins resulting from a spin.
If multiple winning combinations land on a single payline, only the highest win is awarded.
Only the highest winning combination is awarded per symbol combination.
The Paytable displays the payout for each symbol combination based on the current bet.
