THE SYMBOLS
Low value symbols are represented by playing card suits, with diamonds, spades, clubs and hearts. If the right number of winning combinations land on a single spin, these symbols can offer between x0.1 and x0.8 the player’s stake.
Meanwhile, shuriken stars, pistols, wolves and monkeys depict the medium value symbols, offering between x0.2 and x20 the player’s preferred wager.
High value symbols come in the form of mob boss pandas, paying out between x0.5 and x100 the player’s chosen bet.
Green reveal symbols can appear in clusters of six or fewer, revealing identical symbols at the end of the spins they appear on. These symbols also trigger a nudge and reveal feature.
If the reveal symbols land on three consecutive reels, they will all turn into golden reveal symbols that guarantee a special coin feature, spinning through different prizes including multiplied bet amounts, multipliers, collectors and more.
Landing three or more bonus text scatters on the same spin will activate the free spins feature, with seven, eight or nine free spins offered for three, four or five scatters on the same spin, respectively.
Finally, wild samurai swords can also drop into play, substituting for all symbols other than reveal symbols, bonus scatters and coin symbols revealed by the gold reveal symbols.
Landing two, three, four or five wilds in a winning combination can provide wins of x0.5, x2, x10 or x100 the player’s bet respectively.
THE DETAILS
With the game’s nudge & reveal feature, each reveal symbol that drops into play will stay on the board on subsequent spins, nudging down one row with each spin while revealing different symbols on each spin.
When turning into gold reveal symbols, these can reveal multiplied bet amount coins with prizes ranging from x1 to x1,000 the player’s bet.
If one of the gold reveal symbols reveals a collector, then all multiplied bet amounts revealed by other sharks will be collected and applied to the player’s payout before all reveal symbols spin through new prizes again.
The gold reveal symbols can also reveal multipliers, between x2 and x10, that will be applied to all multiplied bet amounts available across the reels.
Nudge compass symbols can be revealed by the golden reveal symbols, causing the reveal symbols to nudge down to cover the full column that the compass landed in.
In the free spins feature, landing scatter symbols can cause low value symbols to be converted into reveal symbols each time they appear on the board.
Players need four scatters in one game mode to cause each low value symbol to be converted. This can occur up to four times to impact all low value symbols.
If players land four scatters to trigger the free spins then two low value symbols will already be converted as the feature begins, while landing five scatters will cause the game mode to begin with all four converted symbols.
Furthermore, players can gamble the number of free spins they receive from activating the feature using a scrolling gamble feature. With this gamble, players can win up to nine free spins with four converted symbols.
WHAT THEY SAY
Amit Samji, Principle Game Producer at Push Gaming, stated: “Boss Bear evolves many of the core concepts of the multi-award-winning Big Bamboo and presents them in a murky underworld for players to explore.
“Recognisable elements are joined by new mechanics such as the coin drop feature which heightens the excitement for players in both the base game and free spins round.”
