There are also Wild symbols that help form winning combinations. They carry a random multiplier of 1x, 2x, or 3x. If you get multiple wilds in a winning combination, they’re multiplied to form a total multiplier. If you have two 3x multipliers, your multiplier becomes 9x (3 times 3).
Buy the Bonus Feature and Avoid the Wait
If you’ve seen several spins pass without as many scatters as you’d hoped for, pay the Bonus Buy fee. Click on the shopping cart and win the free spins automatically. Depending on how many scatters appear on the reels, you’ll win 8, 15, or 20 free spins. Land two, three, four, or five additional scatters during the free spins and win 5, 8, 15, or 20 additional free spins, respectively.
Without the Bonus Buy, three, four, or five Scatter symbols trigger the free spins bonus round. In the free spins, a Golden Elephant is added to the reels. Collect them and win upgrades.
- At 4 Gold Elephants, all Cheetahs turn into Elephants.
- At 7 Gold Elephants, all Eagles turn into Elephants.
- At 13 Gold Elephants, all Zebras turn into Elephants.
- At 15 Gold Elephants, all Giraffes turn into Elephants.
Wilds carry a 2x or 3x multiplier during free spins. They still multiply when multiple appear in one winning combination.
