Gumball Machine

The Gumball Machine is a scatter symbol which activates whenever one or more such symbols land in view.
A random amount of gumballs can be chosen from each machine that has landed. These will award either a cash prize or a number of Free Spins, if in the base game or a cash prize, if in the Free Spins feature.

In the base game

• Only one Gumball Machine can ever be awarded on a single spin which only appears on the 5th reel.
• If Free Spins are awarded from the Gumball Machine, the player is taken to the Prize Box Feature to start the Free Spins game.
• The number of Free Spins awarded will always represent a position on the Free Spins trail

In Free Spins:

• Up to 4 Gumball Machines can appear on the last 4 reels.
• The MultiMax™ multipliers are applied to the cash prizes from the Gumball Machine, starting from left to right, for all multipliers on the reels before and including the reel the Gumball Machine has landed on.

Prize Box Feature

Whenever the player is awarded Free Spins either from the Free Spins trail or the Gumball Machine, they will be presented with the Prize Box feature to determine how many Free Spins they will ultimately play. Two of the boxes contain the Free Spins values that the player entered with and the third box always contains a bigger number of Free Spins. The player is asked to select one of the 3 boxes, at which point the game will reveal where one of the lowest prizes was amongst the three and this box is eliminated.

The player is then asked to either collect their original box they chose or swap for the one remaining box. Once the player has made their decision their box is opened and the number of Free Spins it contains will be awarded. The player cannot end this feature with a value lower than they entered with. They can only increase their number of Free Spins.

This Prize Box feature is random. Best strategy is to always swap the box when offered.

Multimax(tm) Free Spins

The number of Free Spins awarded will be 7,10,12,18,25 or 30 depending on the result of Prize Box Feature. Free Spins are played at the lines and bet of the triggering spin.

The free spins feature also includes the popular MultiMax(tm) mechanics.

• Each of the 5 reels has its own independant multiplier at the top of the reel
• The inital value of each multiplier is X1
• Each wild that appears during each Free Spin will increase its corresponding reels multiplier by 1
• Every payline win awarded gets multiplied by the product of all the multipliers whose reels are involved in the win
• Each individual reel multiplier is capped at X5 meaning the total win multiplier has the potential to award X3125
• The reel multipliers do not get reset until the end of the Free Spins feature

Retriggering Free Spins

The Free Spins feature also has its own trail whose position gets increased in the same way as the main games trail, using the Cascade+ mechanics. However, the Free Spins trail is an improved version making it easier to retrigger and stay in the Free Spins feature. The amount of retriggers that can be awarded from the trail are 2,7,10,12,18 and 25. This helps the player increase the MultiMax(tm) multipliers by awarding more spins. Due to the exponential payment of the MultiMax(tm) mechanics the longer the player stays inside Free Spins the bigger the prizes they can win.

Retriggered Free Spins are immeditately awarded at the value shown on the Free Spins trail and do not trigger the Prize Box Feature.
