THE SYMBOLS
Low value symbols come in the form of blue, green, orange and red squares. If the right number of identical symbols land in adjacent clusters, these symbols can offer between x0.1 and x8 the player’s wager.
Meanwhile, blueberry, kiwi, oranges and strawberry squares depict the high value symbols, corresponding to the colours of the low value symbols. These symbols can provide wins between x0.5 and x250 the player’s bet.
Bonus B scatters can also drop into play, triggering the free spins feature when three land on the same turn. Super B scatters are also available, activating the super free spins feature when one lands on the same spin as two standard scatters.
Finally, wild W symbols can appear, substituting for all symbols in the game other than the two scatters.
THE DETAILS
Wins are formed in this title when five or more identical symbols land in adjacent clusters, vertically or horizontally. Each win causes the symbols to disappear from the grid in a squeezing fashion, allowing additional symbols to appear from the top of the reels.
Furthermore, each win has the possibility to bounce back, rather than be squeezed off of the board. This will increase a multiplier that sits beside the reels by a value of one each time it occurs, with this multiplier impacting all wins during that spin.
Every win will also impact one of the four feature meters sitting beside the reel set, depending on the colour of the symbols that formed the winning combination.
When four wins have occurred with the same colour of symbols, whether low or high value, each colour meter will award its own respective feature. These meters will reset in between spins.
Blue wins trigger the ‘swap’ feature, causing two symbols to switch positions to enhance the game grid. This occurs three times for each individual feature. Meanwhile, green wins trigger the ‘upgrade’ feature, upgrading a randomly selected symbol to its high value counterpart.
However, if a high value symbol gets selected by the upgrade feature, all versions of said symbol will transform into wilds across the grid.
Orange wins activate the ‘make big’ feature, causing one symbol to enlarge to a size of 3×3 or 4×4.
Lastly, red wins cause the ‘spawn wilds’ feature to occur, replacing between two and six symbols across the board with wilds.
Each high value symbol can also appear to be vibrating, known as ‘super charged symbols’. Each time these symbols contribute to a win, they will automatically fill their respective colour meter to award a guaranteed feature.
During the free spins game mode, colour meters will not reset in between spins. Additionally, the super free spins game mode guarantees one colour feature at the start of the game mode.
