LOCK AND SPIN

The nifty ‘Lock and Spin’ reel bonus is triggered randomly in the base game and makes the reels go into an extended spin mode, stacked wilds for a boost. Stacked wilds that land fully in view, locks the wilds on the activated reel and triggers a respin on the other reels to search for more stacked wilds. The feature ends when no more stacked wilds are gained.

FREE SPINS

Spinning three or more bonus icons triggers the Free Spin mode. The bonus features climbing stacked wilds that are triggered by the blacksmith’s kilns under each reels. The lit kilns have the power to award random climbing stacked wilds, with their size dependant on the bonus awarded before the round starts (3-5 stacked wild lengths are possible). This bonus has cool animations, with the stacked wilds working their away off each reel to extinguish the kiln’s bonus activity (you can gain retriggers to extend the round).
