Two Power Crystals on consecutive reels from reel one is the cheapest way into Crystal Clans' Free Spins, and it deals 10 to 15 of them; five crystals deal 36 to 50. What sets the size of the round is not that count but whether a Wild Multiplier was on the reels when it triggered, because that tile…
Throughout the game, Wild Multipliers multiply all payouts on the spin. The multiplier applies to everything the spin has won, not only to the line the multiplier tile sits on. A Wild Multiplier landing on the spin that sets off the bonus multiplies every win of the entire round. One frame from the session shows a green x2 Wild Multiplier tile in the top row of reel five, four lines lit across the left of the grid, none of them reaching that tile, and the ticker line reading that lines 6, 8, 35 and 44 had paid.
Crystal Clans is a 5-reel, 3-row online slot, created by iSoftBet. Two other iSoftBet titles on the site are Dragonfire Chamber of Gold and Mystery of LongWei. It has 50 fixed paylines and it was launched on September 14, 2018. A spin costs 50 times the selected coin value times the bet per line, so every one of those lines is live on every spin.
There is a wild symbol available. Wins are read from left to right along the fixed lines. It substitutes for everything except the Power Crystal and the Wild Multipliers, and it is the most valuable one, granting you 20,000 coins for five across a payline. The bearded chieftain shares the top of the paytable with it. Only the largest win per line is paid. The biggest win outside the two bonus rounds was 110.00 on spin 220, 22 times the stake.
The Wild Multipliers run x2, x3, x5 and x10. In the captured frame the coin value read 0.01 and the bet 500 coins, which is a stake of 5.00, with the credit meter on 97,300, the balance on 973.00 and the win counter on 8.00.
Final Minty Score: Both bonus rounds together returned 965.00 of the 1,677.50 that came back over 310 spins, both awarded from the two-crystal band and neither of them retriggered. The multiplier that carries a whole round is settled on the triggering spin, before the round has run a spin of its own.
2, 3, 4 or 5 Power Crystals on successive reels from reel 1 trigger the Free Spins bonus, and two crystals grant 10 to 15 free spins. Both rounds in this session came out of that smallest band. Three grant 16 to 25. The first, on spin 39, dealt 10 free spins, and the second, on spin 92, dealt 12. Four grant 26 to 35 and five grant 36 to 50. The top band needs a crystal on all five reels. Landing 2 or more Power Crystals during the round multiplies the leftover free spins by 2, 3, 5 or 10. It works on what is left rather than adding a set number, so the same crystals are worth more early in a round than late. There is a firm ceiling of 100 free spins per round. Neither logged round retriggered, so both ran out the spins they were dealt and stopped.
It should be noted however that the multiplier has to be on the reels at the correct moment. For a multiplier that runs across a whole bonus round, that moment is the triggering spin itself.
Across 310 spins at a 5.00 stake I wagered 1,550.00 and won back 1,677.50, a session return of 108.2%. The balance started at 1,000.00 and finished at 1,127.50. Only 68 spins paid at all and 36 of those paid less than the stake. The lowest the balance got was 833.50, which is where it sat when the first bonus started. Two bonus rounds carried the entire thing. They came 53 spins apart. 10 free spins on spin 39 paid 780.00, or 156 times the stake, and 12 free spins on spin 92 paid 185.00. Spin 39 took the balance from 833.50 to 1,613.50, the highest point of the run. Between them the bonuses were 58% of everything I won. That is 965.00 of the 1,677.50. The barren stretch in the middle ran 31 spins without a single win.
