Risk game to double your winnings
Some slot machines are supplemented with a doubling game. The Risk game is a bonus round that allows you to multiply your winnings. This game is launched when the customer creates a prize sequence. A start button becomes available in the control panel, which allows you to start a new game in the window that appears. Users need:
Guess the color of the suit – a face-down card (or several cards) appears on the field, and the participant must guess the red or black suit of the card.
Choose a higher denomination card – if the risk game is designed as a game with a virtual croupier, 2 cards appear. One is opened by the merchant and the other by the user. If the value of the player’s card is higher than the dealer’s card, he wins.
If the player wins, his winnings will be multiplied by 2 times and the risk round will continue. Players can complete the doubling round at any time and return to the main spin trigger. A player who started a risk round but lost loses all winnings previously received. Therefore, before starting such a game, it is worth evaluating your strengths, budget and stage of the game.
Free spins
Free spins are free spins on the reels. They are activated by forming a combination of three or more scatter symbols, regardless of where they land. Free spins are available at the bet that was set when the reels spin and the bonus icons appear.
Winnings are credited under the same conditions as the slot itself. Users are offered new special symbol options that are activated during free spins – expanding wilds, multipliers, possible jackpots. The number of spins depends on how many scatter symbols appear on the playing field. The scheme usually looks like this:
- 3 scatters – 3-5 free spins
- 4 scatters – 5-10 free spins
- 5 scatters – 10-15 free spins
Sometimes slots only trigger free spins with 4 or more scatters. Some games allow 2 scatter symbol combinations.
Special symbols: wild, scatter and bonus
All slot machines have themed symbols. The symbols are formed sequentially, and if the player collects a combination of three or more identical symbols, he is awarded a win, the size of which depends on the value of the symbols in each slot. You can increase your chances of creating a prize sequence by using special icons that have the following properties:
- Wild is a symbol that stands on a line instead of a regular icon and helps to collect a combination. The only symbol that the wild cannot replace is the scatter.
- Scatter – When three or more scatters appear on the screen (regardless of their location on the field), free spins are triggered.
- Bonus – an icon that combines the functions of the scatter and wild symbol.
During the bonus game or free spins, these symbols can expand to the entire reel, trigger a multiplier or get extra features.
