Game Features

This game offers a variety of bonuses and special features that add depth to the gameplay and provide numerous opportunities for players to boost their winnings. Here's a breakdown of how each feature operates:

The Mechanic

The Eye symbol, when landing beneath a winning symbol, triggers a mechanic. Initially, the Eye symbol will mark all the symbols involved in that win. It then rotates to face either right or down, indicating the direction in which the mechanic will operate. The mechanic extends the win across the grid in the corresponding direction.

If the mechanic activates to the right, it may trigger again, extending downward. The Eye symbol only appears on reel 3 and cannot land on row 1. If the mechanic crosses the path of the Eye symbol itself, the Eye symbol will also be replaced with the winning symbol. Additionally, only one Eye symbol can land on the grid at any given time.

Bonus Round 1

The Bonus Round 1 feature is activated when three scatter symbols land simultaneously during the base game. This feature grants players three lives and takes place on special reels where only blanks, Eye symbols, and multiplier symbols appear.

When an Eye symbol lands, it glances in one of four directions - up, down, left, or right - and collects all multiplier symbols in its path. The collected multiplier values are added to the reel multiplier above the respective reel.

If an Eye symbol crosses paths with another Eye symbol, the feature reveals a special multiplier that is added to all reel multipliers above each reel. These multipliers can have values ranging from 1x to 100x for adding multipliers, and from 2x to 10x for multiplying multipliers.

Unlike the base game, the Eye symbol can land on any reel during the Bonus Round 1, and multiple Eye symbols can appear on the grid simultaneously. The feature's three lives reset each time the Eye symbol collects a multiplier. If all lives are consumed without a reset, the feature ends and the sum of all reel multipliers is paid out.

Bonus Round 2

The Bonus Round 2 feature can be randomly triggered at the start of any spin during the base game. When activated, the game transforms into the Bonus Round 1 bonus feature for just one spin. During this spin, a minimum of 3 Eye symbols and 4 multipliers are guaranteed to land, ensuring that at least one multiplier is collected.

Unlike the standard Bonus Round 1 feature, the Bonus Round 2 does not involve any lives. After the wins from the drop are awarded, the game reverts back to the base game mode, continuing as usual until the feature is possibly triggered again.

Bonus Round 3

The Bonus Round 3 feature is triggered by landing four scatter symbols simultaneously during the base game, which awards 10 free spins. Throughout this feature, any low-paying symbols that were part of a winning combination and were spread by the mechanic will be removed from the reels for the remainder of the feature.

If additional scatter symbols land during the bonus game, extra spins are awarded: landing 2 scatter symbols grants 2 extra spins, and 3 scatters grant 4 spins.
