Symbols

Wild

The Wild symbol substitutes for every symbol apart from scatters.

Wilds have no payout and can appear on any reel except the first reel.

Diamonds

Diamonds can appear on any symbol that lands on any reel.

See the “Boosting Fortunes” section for more information.

Bonus Scatter

Landing 3 or more Bonus Scatters in view on the reels triggers the Free Spins bonus.

Bonus Scatters can land on any reel.

Landing more than 3 Bonus Scatters in view will increase the number of Free Spins that are awarded.

Boosting Fortunes

There are 5 dynamic Fortune prizes in this game: MINI, MIDI, SUPER, MEGA, and ULTRA.

Landing a Diamond on a symbol will increase a random Fortune prize.

Fortune prizes will increase by between 0.05 x bet and 0.5 x bet when this occurs.

Landing a Wild symbol in Free Spins increases the value of the Fortune prize above that reel.

Fortune prize values scale with bet changes.

Increasing the value of a Fortune prize does not affect game RTP.

On any bet where 1 or more Diamonds land on symbols, the Fortune Bonus may trigger.

The Fortune Bonus consists of a pick bonus.

Picking an object in the Fortune Bonus will reveal a token for 1 of the Fortune Prizes.

The player will keep picking until they reveal 3 tokens that are the same. When this occurs, they will win the Fortune Prize associated with these 3 tokens.

Graphical collections of Diamonds in the game are purely for visual entertainment and as such do not influence awarding a Fortune prize.

The Fortune prize that is awarded will reset to its starting value.

The paytable displays the starting value and maximum value of each Fortune prize.

The probability of triggering the Fortune Bonus will change as the Fortune prize values change.

This feature cannot trigger on a Free Spins trigger.

This feature can be triggered in the base game and Free Spins.

Buffalo Thunder

In the base game or Free Spins, landing 4 Buffalo symbols on the same reel on a single spin will trigger the Buffalo Thunder feature.

The 4 Buffalo symbols will combine to form a single stacked Buffalo symbol.

The new single Buffalo symbol will be given a stack multiplier between 5X and 10X.

The stack multipliers that can be awarded are 5X, 6X, 7X, 8X, or 10X.

Stacks on adjacent reels will combine together to form a single, multi-reel stack. The stack multipliers on these stacks will multiply together to form a single number. For example, a X10 stack and a X5 stack on adjacent reels will combine to form a single X50 stack.

This stack multiplier will be used when calculating how many symbols are on this reel during the win calculation. For example, a stack multiplier of X6 will denote that there are 6 symbols on the reel.

See the “How to Calculate a Win With 1024 Ways” section for more information.

Free Spins

In Free Spins, Double Buffalo symbols can land in view.

Each Double Buffalo symbol on a reel counts as 2 normal Buffalo symbols on that reel when calculating a win.

Double Buffalo symbols can land in a stack. They cannot land in a mixed stack of normal Buffalo symbols and Double Buffalo symbols.

Landing 4 Double Buffalo symbols on the same reel on a single spin will trigger the Buffalo Thunder feature.

The 4 Double Buffalo symbols will combine to form a single Buffalo symbol.

The new single stacked Buffalo symbol will display 2 stack multipliers between X10 and X20 and pick one of them to award.

The stack multipliers that can be awarded are 10X, 12X, 14X, 16X, or 20X.

In Free Spins, Wild symbols that land in view will expand to fill the reel as a single Wild symbol.

The new single Wild symbol will be given a stack multiplier between X6 and X12.

The stack multipliers that can be awarded are 6X, 7X, 8X, 10X, or 12X.

This multiplier will be used when calculating how many symbols are on this reel during the win calculation. For example, a stack multiplier of X6 will denote that there are 6 symbols on the reel.

Landing a Wild on the reels will also boost 1 or more Fortune prizes.

Landing Bonus Scatters on the reels can award extra Free Spins. See the paytable for more information.

Free Spins are played at the bet of the triggering spin.

How to Calculate a Win With 1024 Ways

To calculate the total Ways win, add all the symbol wins together. All way wins are summed together after the spin. To calculate a single symbol win, count the number of consecutive reels that contain the symbol, starting from the leftmost reel.

If the number of consecutive reels containing the symbol is 2 or greater counting from the left find the corresponding win amount in the pay table.

If any of the reels contain more than 1 instance of the symbols, the win will be multiplied. Multiply the number of symbols on each of the reels to get the final payout multiplier.

For example, if the first column contains 2 symbols, second column 3 symbols and third column 2 symbols, the paytable value is multiplied by 2*3*2=12.
