How Hold / Win Triggers
Land three or more bonus symbols on the 3×3 grid and the hold and win round locks in. The game freezes the triggering symbols, spins the remaining reels, and any new bonus symbols that land stay locked – respins reset to three. This continues until no fresh bonus symbols arrive or the spin counter hits zero. Each locked symbol carries a coin value or multiplier. The payout is the sum of all locked values at round end.
Wild Multipliers / Respins
Wild symbols land during the hold and win feature with fixed multiplier values attached. A wild can boost the payout of adjacent locked symbols. Respins keep firing as long as new bonus or wild symbols land – the round does not end until a spin produces no fresh locked pieces. This mechanic is where volatility peaks: a single respin can double or triple the hold and win total if wilds stack.
Bonus Buy / Ante Options
| Feature | Cost | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Standard Spin | Base bet | Normal payline wins + hold and win trigger chance |
| Bonus Buy | Variable (operator-set) | Instant entry to hold and win round with 3 locked bonus symbols |
Bonus buy cost varies by casino operator. Check your site’s game settings for exact pricing. The buy skips the wait and guarantees the feature starts – useful when base spins feel flat.
Grid / Paylines / Bet Range
The game runs a 3×3 grid with 27 paylines. Minimum bet is 0.5 (currency varies by region), maximum is 500. This range suits both cautious players and high-rollers. Hit frequency sits at 14.4%, meaning roughly 1 in 7 spins lands a win – typical for high-volatility slots. Long dry spells are normal; the hold and win bonus is where the slot delivers the big swing.
RTP / Volatility Profile
97.1% RTP is the default setting. High volatility means payouts cluster around the bonus feature rather than frequent small wins. Expect uneven base-game returns and rare large hits during hold and win. The x1000 max win is tied to multiplier stacking and respins – not a common sight, but possible when wilds and locked symbols align.
