Wild
- Wild symbols can appear randomly anywhere on the reels in the main game, and substitute for all symbols except for Free Spin symbols and target symbols.
- When a Wild symbol appears on the reels, in the main game and in Free Spins, it acts as a Sticky Wild and remains on the reels for subsequent re-spin or re-spins.
- During a re-spin the Sticky Wild symbol holds the position on the reel.
- Additional Wild symbols appearing anywhere on the reels in the main game and in Free Spins, also remain on the reels until the re-spins end.
- In the main game and in Free Spins, all Wild symbols remain on the reels for the re-spin, and the re-spins end when there are no new Wild symbols remaining anywhere on the reels.
- Re-spin wins are added to any wins from the initial spin.
- Any re-spins that are won in the round that activated Free Spins are played after Free Spins is completed.
- In Free Spins, when level 1 of the Health Meter is reached, Wild symbols can appear randomly anywhere on reels 1-4 only. At levels 2-4, Wild symbols can appear randomly anywhere on reels 2, 3 and 4 only.
- Wild symbol substitution pays the highest possible winning combination on a bet line according to the PAYTABLE.
Free Spins
- 3 or more Free Spin symbols, appearing randomly anywhere on the reels in the main game only, activate Free Spins.
- 3 Free Spins symbols = 10 Free Spins
- 4 Free Spins symbols = 15 Free Spins
- 5 Free Spins symbols = 20 Free Spins
- In Free Spins, a target symbol can appear randomly anywhere on reel 5 only.
- When a target symbol appears, the creature appears on the right hand side of the screen and gets shot.
- A Health Meter on the bottom right hand corner of the screen displays the Creature's health status.
- As more Creature hits occur, and a new level is reached on the Health Meter, the Creature's health deteriorates and one of the following outcomes applies:
- Level 1 is 0-2 collected target symbols: Any Wild symbols appearing on the reels act as a Sticky Wild that remains on the reels for 1 re-spin.
- Level 2 is 3-5 collected target symbols: The 1st Spreading Wild is activated- Wild symbols spread horizontally 1 position to the left only and remain on the reels for 1 re-spin.
- Level 3 is 6-8 collected target symbols: The 2nd Spreading Wild is activated - Wild symbols spread horizontally 1 position on the reels both to the left and to the right and remain on the reels for 1 re-spin.
- At level 4, the final level, 9 collected target symbols activates 10 additional Free Spins.
- In additional Free Spins, any Wild symbols appearing on the reels will spread horizontally 1 position on the reels both to the left and to the right.
- Wild symbols appearing on the reels in the spin that unlocks levels 2 or 3 will not activate the new Spreading Wild behavior.
- If a Wild symbol appearing on reel 4 spreads onto a target symbol, both symbols retain their standard behaviour.
- After level 4 no further target symbols can be collected.
- Additional Free Spins and re-spins won are automatically added to the current Free Spins.
- Free Spins are played at the same bet level and coin value as the round that activated Free Spins.
- TOTAL WIN displays any wins during Free Spins added to any wins from the round that activated Free Spins.
- At the end of Free Spins, the game returns to the round that activated Free Spins.
