Bonus Features & Mechanics

Bonus mechanics revolve around Free Spins triggered by Scatter symbols appearing across reels. During Free Spins, Wild symbols substitute for most others to aid in forming wins. Money symbols carry random values that accumulate and can be multiplied by Hot Tuna symbols collected in this mode. Additionally, Free Spins can be retriggered multiple times by meeting specific collection goals. For players interested in similar feature sets, Temple of Paw offers another slot with fixed paylines and retriggerable free spins.

Trigger Free Spins with Scatter Symbols

Landing 3, 4, or 5 Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels activates 10, 15, or 20 Free Spins respectively, giving you more chances to win without additional bets.

Maximize Wins with Hot Tuna and Money Symbols

During Free Spins, Money symbols collect random values and Hot Tuna symbols multiply the total Money values by 10, significantly boosting your potential payouts.

Retrigger Free Spins for Extended Play

Collecting 6 Money symbols on each of the 7 meter steps during Free Spins retriggers 10 additional spins and adds a Hot Tuna symbol, extending your bonus round and increasing win potential.
