Royals, Lanterns and a Wild Kept to Reels 2 to 4

The slot has five low-paying symbols depicted by A, K, Q, J and 10, and the high-value symbols are depicted by five distinct symbols - fans, coins, oranges, pottery jars and lanterns. The royals pay between 0.33x and 1.17x the bet for five of a kind, while the lowest of the high-value symbols pays 1.67x. The highest symbol awards a 6.67x win for 5 of a kind.

The Wild lands on reels 2, 3 and 4 solely. It substitutes for every symbol except the Gems. Gems can randomly trigger the free spins, and for anyone who doesn't wish to wait for the Gems to land, the Bonus Buy is available, this time at a price of 100x, and it begins with two Gems. The first free spins round of the session came on spin 61 from a single Blue Gem and paid 104.0x the stake with no retrigger.

How a Gem Round Is Built

Gems can randomly trigger the Free Spins, and 1, 2 or 3 Gems landing on the triggering spin award 5, 10 or 15 free spins correspondingly. The second round arrived on spin 241, 180 spins after the first, from a single Green Gem, and its 5 free spins paid 27.0x the stake.

At the beginning of the Free Spins, each Gem turns on its modifier for the length of the Free Spins. The Red Gem grows the grid to 5x5 for 3,125 ways, the Green Gem adds extra Wilds to reels 2, 3 and 4, and the Blue Gem gives Wilds a x2, x3 or x5 multiplier, with several multiplier Wilds in the same win multiplying together. A Gem for a modifier not yet active retriggers the Free Spins, an extra modifier is turned on, and 5 further free spins are awarded. Mystery symbols also land during the Free Spins and turn into either 1 to 42 extra free spins or an instant prize of 30x to 5,000x the bet.

The Minty Take: The max win is 12,077x. The session's third round, on spin 278, opened with all three Gems and 15 free spins with the Ways, Wilds and Wins modifiers active, and it paid 71.0x the stake with no retrigger.
