SYMBOLS
Carrots, aubergines and corn are the title’s low-value symbols. Depending on the number of these symbols in a cluster, these symbols can offer x0.2 to x40 the player’s wager.
High value symbols are represented by a watering can, a rake and a jar of milk. These symbols can offer x0.4 to x1,000 the player’s bet, depending on the number of these symbols in a cluster.
The game also has a wild, bonus scatter, a farmer, hay bales and cow symbols, in addition to a wild field feature, a field day feature, a hold and win bonus game, a grand jackpot feature, a buy feature and a bet plus option.
Wild symbols substitute for all other symbols except for the scatter. When two wilds land, the wild feature is triggered, creating the largest possible rectangle that changes the symbols inside the rectangle into wilds.
Up to five additional wilds can land, one per reel. Wins are calculated after the activation, and the bonus game can’t be triggered during the same spin. 25 wilds offer x1,000 the player’s stake.
DETAILS
The field day feature is activated when two tractor bonus scatter symbols land, creating a field. A farmer symbol then moves from left to right across rows at random.
If the farmer lands inside the field, the field is fenced off to create a premium field with adjacent hot zones added, triggering the hold and win bonus game. If the farmer doesn’t land inside the field, the base game continues.
In the hold and win bonus game, the player is awarded three free spins, where only hay bales, bronze, silver and gold cows and the farmer symbol can appear.
When they land, cows stay locked in place and reset the free spins counter to three. If a cow lands on the grass in a premium field, it will begin grazing and move up a level from bronze to gold following each respin.
The premium field can expand if a farmer symbol appears and lands in a hot zone, adding adjacent hot zones if possible and resetting the free spins counter to three.
Cow symbols will only upgrade if they are inside the premium field, revealing prizes based on their level at the end of the bonus game. Bronze cows have values of x0.5, x1 and x2 the player’s wager, silver cows have values of x5, x10 and x15 the player’s bet, while gold cows have values of x25, x50 and x100 the player’s stake.
The bonus game concludes when the player has no more free spins or if the grid is filled with 25 cow symbols, which triggers the grand jackpot feature and awards x5,000 the player’s wager.
The buy feature allows players to purchase the wild field, field day or bonus game features. Wild field can be purchased for x20 the player’s bet, field day can be purchased for x30 the player’s stake, while the bonus game can be purchased for x80 the player’s wager.
The bet plus option allows players to boost their chances of triggering a bonus game during a spin. Bonus boost makes each spin twice as likely to trigger the bonus game for x1.5 the player’s bet, while bonus bet plus makes each spin five times more likely to trigger the bonus game for x2.5 the player’s stake.
