Note: The Default coin value* and Default coins bet* apply to the first time the game is loaded.

When a new game session is started, the saved values are loaded so you can continue where you left off.

The Jackpot* is the amount you can win and you can win it during the bonus. The Jackpot is available only at maximum bet.

Note: The game will disconnect if no actions are taken for 45 consecutive minutes; the session recovery feature will save the game progress so that the next time the game is loaded, you can continue where you left off.

In the event of technical difficulties resulting a dropped connection to the game server, the game you were playing is saved automatically and will load the next time you establish a connection to the game server. You will not be able to reconnect to the game server for the first 30 seconds after the disconnection.

2.1. Disconnection during the game

  • Disconnection while reels are spinning – once the player logs back to the game, the spin will have been completed. If a win was involved, the prize will have been added to the balance.
  • Disconnection after the free spins are triggered but before starting the free spins – the game resumes from the point of disconnection
  • Disconnection during free spins – the game resumes from the point of disconnection
  • Disconnection during Bonus– the game resumes from the point of disconnection (you may need to select your bird)

Note: In case of malfunction all pays and play are voided; any bet that was not yet accepted will be voided, any bet that was unsettled will be refunded.

5. HOW TO PLAY

Step 1

After the game has finished loading, select the coin value you want to play on. You can see the coin value on the bottom right corner of the screen, and you can change it at any time by clicking it. The selectable coin values are 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.50 and 1 in Euros.

To change the amount bet, click one of the BET (1, 2, 3, 4, and 5) buttons. The BET buttons spin the slots one time.

Note: BET 1 places a bet of 1 coin, BET 2 places a bet of 2 coins, BET 3 places a bet of 3 coins, BET 4 places a bet of 4 coins and BET 5 places a bet of 5 coins. Your bet will be: the coin bet (BET 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5) times selected coin value times 25 coins.

Step 2

Click the SPIN button to spin the reels one time using the selected BET.

You can stop the reels faster by clicking the STOP button – or you can wait for the reels to stop by themselves.

If you want to continue the game play with the previously played coins and coin value, click the ‘Spin’ button.

Notes

If you do not have enough money to play a game, the bet (coin value*coins) can be set to the minimum selectable amount through a dialog window informing about this.

6. Special Symbol and Features

6.1. Wild

  • The Wild symbol replaces any other symbol except Bonus and Magic Hoop, during normal and free spins

6.2. Free spins

Free spins are triggered when the Magic Hoop symbol appears anywhere on reels 2 and 4, at the same time – a random number of free spins are awarded.

During each free spin, one of the following will occur:

  • one or more random symbols on the screen (except on reel 1) become wild, only if, by becoming wild a winning combination is formed
  • a random reel, except reel 1, becomes wild, only if, by becoming wild, a winning combination is formed
  • 4 adjacent symbols on the screen (except on reel 1) forming a 2×2 square become wild, only if, by becoming wild, a winning combination is formed

Note: During free spins, Bonus and Magic Hoop symbols are not transformed into wild.

During free spins, other free spins can be triggered; there is no limit to how many times free spins are re-triggered.

During free spins, the amount bet remains the same as the bet on the spin that has triggered the free spins and cannot be changed.

6.3. Bonus

Three or more Bonus symbols anywhere on the screen trigger the bonus round.

When the bonus round starts you have to pick one of the three birds.

During the bonus round, click the balloons you want to target and shot in order to win a prize:

  • a random amount – each amount won is added to the total bonus win, after the current multiplier is applied
  • x2 to x10 multipliers – each multiplier is applied to the next amount you win

The current multiplier is displayed on the left side of the screen in the MULTIPLIER box. The current winnings are displayed on the right side of the screen in the WIN box.

The bonus round ends when the balloon you hit shows: BONUS END.

A summary of the amounts won for each awarded multiplier is displayed at the end of the bonus round. The total bonus winnings are added to the total winnings.

7. PAYTABLE

To view the game rules and symbol explanations, click the Paytable button.

The 243 Ways pays from left to right, regardless of the symbol position on each reel.

The winning combination must start on the first reel and continue on the second reel and so on (any position); the symbols may be considered as acting like adjacent traditional Scatter symbols.

A way is made up of all symbols of the same kind that appear on adjacent reels, starting with reel 1 and ending at the reel on which a symbol of the same kind does not appear.

The length of a way is represented by the number of reels on which symbols that belong to that way appear. The minimum length is 3 reels and the maximum length is 5 reels.

The number of ways is determined by multiplying the total number of symbols of the same kind that appear on each of the reels of a way.

Example: On reel 1, there is 1 winning symbol, on reel 2 there are 3 winning symbols and on reel 3 there are 2 winning symbols, resulting in 6 ways: 1 x 3 x 2 = 6 ways.

The in-game paytable is calculated dynamically and lists the prizes for winning combinations, depending on the number of coins you bet and the coin value that you select and the base payout values displayed in the table below. All prizes shown in the in-game paytable are in Euros.

The payouts displayed in the in-game paytable are calculated as follows: coin value times coin bet (Bet 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5) times base payout value for the winning combination (shown in the table below).

The base payout values for winning symbols for the length of a way are shown below:

Symbol 3 reels 4 reels 5 reels
20 50 400
10 50 100
10 40 70
5 20 30
5 20 25
5 15 25
5 15 20
3 10 20
3 10 15

All winnings are paid from left to right.

Wins on different ways are all added.

The wins from Free Spins are added to the total balance.

Only the highest winning combination on each way is paid.

The amount bet in Euros is displayed in the Bet meter and is the coin bet multiplied by the coin value multiplied by the number of coins (25 coins).

Example: For a 5 coin bet (BET 5) and a 0.10 coin value, your total bet would be: 5 x 0.10 x 25 = 12.5 EURO.

The amount won in Euros is displayed in the Winnings meter and is the coin value multiplied by the number of ways multiplied by the gain in the paytable for the winning symbol for the length of the way.

Note: For example, if there are 6 ways, 1 winning symbol on reel 1, 3 winning symbols on reel 2 and 2 winning symbols on reel 3: 1 x 3 x 2 = 6 ways, the length of the way, in this case, is 3 reels – in the paytable, you can view the gain for 3 reels for the winning symbol.

A mini Paytable is available for each symbol, accessible by clicking it.

Notes

On the STOP xx/25 button, 25 represents the total number of autoplay spins and xx represents the number of autoplay spins remaining.
