Game Basics
Big Money Wheel is a 6-reel video slot with Re-Spins and Free Spins, with the Big Money Wheel feature.
The reels are arranged in a pattern where reels 1 and 2 are 2 rows high, while reels 3, 4, 5, and 6 are 4 rows high.
The main game is played with 1024 bet-ways and different bet values. Matching symbols in any position on three or more adjacent reels, starting from the leftmost reel to the rightmost reel, without gaps, results in a bet-way win. More bet-way wins are created when additional instances of the symbol appear on the same reels that create the longest bet-way win. Only the longest matching combination per symbol is paid. Simultaneous wins on different bet-ways are added.
A bet-way win is equal to the value shown in the Paytable. Symbol payout values shown in the Paytable are dynamic and change in accordance with the selected bet value.
Bet-ways Calculation Example:
The longest winning combination of the shoe symbols is 5 symbols on reels 1–5. The number of winning bet-ways is calculated by multiplying the number of shoe symbols on each of these reels: 1 x 1 x 2 x 3 x 1 = 6 winning bet-ways.
Wild Symbols
Wild symbols can appear in the main game on reels 3, 4, 5, and 6. Wild symbols substitute for all symbols except for the Scatter symbol and Coin symbols.
Wild symbols substitution pays the highest possible winning combination in a bet-way according to the Paytable.
Colossal Symbols
During the main game, colossal (2×2) Coin symbols and colossal Scatter symbols can only appear on reels 1 and 2. Scatter symbols cannot appear anywhere else on the reels.
When wins are evaluated, colossal symbols count as 1 Coin symbol.
Re-Spins
In the main game, Coin symbols with random multipliers of x1, x2, x5, x10, or x25 can appear anywhere on the reels. Colossal Coin symbols with random multipliers of x1, x2, x5, x10, x25, x50, or x100 can also appear on reels 1–2.
During the main game, any colossal Coin symbol appearing on the reels with at least one other Coin symbol activates Re-Spins. During Re-Spins, the colossal symbol and all Coin symbols remain on the reels at the start of the next Re-Spin.
If at least one Coin symbol appears on the reels during Re-Spins, another Re-Spin is awarded. If no more Coin symbols appear on the reels during Re-Spins, Re-Spins end. If the play area is completely filled with Coin symbols, no more Re-Spins are awarded, and Re-Spins end.
Re-Spins are played at the same bet as the round that activated Re-Spin. No wins are awarded for the main game spin that activated Re-Spins and for Re-Spins except for the last Re-Spin. At the end of Re-Spins, the total win from Re-Spins (the bet value multiplied by the sum of all Coin symbol multipliers on the reels) is awarded.
Free Spins
In the main game, a colossal Scatter symbol appearing on reels 1 and 2 activates Free Spins on a 4-reel, 6-row play area.
In Free Spins, every position on the reels spins individually, and only Coin symbols (with random values of x1, x2, x5, x10, x25, x50, or x100) and Mystery symbols can appear on the reels during Free Spins.
The starting number of Free Spins is 3. Coin symbols and Mystery symbols appearing on the reels reset the number of Free Spins to 3. All symbols remain on the reels until the end of Free Spins.
Big Money Wheel Feature
When the Free Spins counter reaches 0, and there is at least one Mystery symbol on the reels, the Big Money Wheel feature is activated.
The Big Money Wheel feature spins the wheel once, where Multiplier, Double, and Triple rewards can be won. The probability of each reward varies, and the number of occurrences on the wheel is proportional to the probability.
Winning a Multiplier awards the Mystery symbols on the reels a x5, x10, x25, x50, x100, x250, x500, or x1000 multiplier.
Winning Double awards in a second spin on the wheel in which only Multiplier awards can be won. The Multiplier won in the second spin is then multiplied by 2.
Winning Triple Awards on a second spin of the wheel in which only Multiplier awards can be won. The Multiplier won in the second spin is then multiplied by 3.
Once the Big Money Wheel spin is over, the spin result is transferred to all Mystery symbols on the reels, and wins are evaluated.
Free Spins are played at the same bet as the round that activated Free Spins, and Free Spins end when the Free Spins counter reaches 0 or when the play area is completely filled with Coin symbols and/or Mystery symbols.
At the end of Free Spins, a win equal to the bet value multiplied by the sum of all Coin symbol multipliers and/or Mystery symbols on the reels is awarded, and the game returns to the round that activated Free Spins.
