Hotline 2

RULES OF THE GAME

• Hotline 2™ is a 5-reel, 3-row slot with Expanding Wilds and Free Spins symbols with expanding reels.
• It is played with 243 bet modes (up to 1944 in Free Spins) and different bet values, monetary and bet levels (only when playing with coins).
• There are no betting lines.
• Matching symbols in any position on three or more adjacent reels, starting from left to right, create a gamble mode win.
• Bet modes pay if they are in succession from the leftmost reel to the rightmost reel.
• Here is an example:

• More bet mode wins are created when multiple instances of a symbol appear on the same reels creating the largest bet mode win.
• The number of bet modes is equal to the heights of all reels multiplied by each other.
• Here is an example:

• A bet mode prize is equal to the value indicated in the Paytable.
• Only the highest combination of symbols pays.
• Simultaneous wins will be added in different betting modes.
• Winning combinations and payouts are made according to the Paytable.
• The payout values for the symbols shown in the Paytable are dynamic and change depending on the selected bet value.
• You can play with cash or coins. To switch between cash and coins, go to Game Settings. Note: Not all bet modes are available at all casinos.
• When playing with coins, the bet value is set by clicking the Bet Settings button and selecting the coin value and bet level. When playing with money, the bet value is set by clicking the Bet Settings button and selecting the bet.
• BET is the amount of coins or money that is bet.
• BALANCE indicates the amount of money or coins available for betting.

Example of Bet Mode payment

• When playing with coins at bet level 1, 4 matching Kitty Weiss symbols on adjacent reels starting from the leftmost one award 50 coins. This result is multiplied by 2 (2 Kitty Weiss symbols on reel 4), giving a total win of 2 x 50 = 100. When playing with money, the payout follows the same logic as when playing with coins, with the calculated result depending on the current bet value.

Hotlines and Expanding Wild Symbols

• In the main game and Free Spins, reels 2, 3 and 4 are Hotlines.
• Wild symbols can appear on Hotlines in the main game and Free Spins, and substitute for all symbols except Scatter symbols.
• In the main game, a Wild symbol landing on a Hotline expands to cover the entire reel if it results in a gamble win.
• In Free Spins, a Wild symbol on a Hotline always expands to cover the entire reel.
• The Expanding Wild symbol substitution pays the highest possible winning combination in a bet mode according to the Paytable.

Free Spins and Expanding Reels

• 3 Scatter symbols on the Hotlines in the main game activate 7 Free Spins.
• In Free Spins, a Wild symbol landing on a Hotline increases the height of that Hotline by 1 symbol, creating more bet ways.
• The number of bet ways in Free Spins starts at 243 and can reach up to 1944 as the Hotlines increase in height.
• A Wild symbol landing on a Hotline expands as the Hotline height increases and before any wins are evaluated.
• The maximum height of a Hotline is 6 symbols.
• A Hotline that reaches its maximum height awards 2 additional Free Spins.
• Free Spins are played with the same bet as the round that activated the Free Spins.
• At the end of Free Spins, the total winnings from the Free Spins are added to the winnings from the round that activated the Free Spins.
• At the end of Free Spins, the game returns to the round that activated Free Spins.
