  • Maximum bet activates all bet lines at the highest possible bet level and coin value.

Free Spins Feature

  • The Lantern symbol appears only on reel 5 during Free Spins.
  • Free Spins are played at the same bet level and coin value as the triggering round.

The Walking Wild Feature

  • When a Wild symbol lands, a Re-Spin is triggered.
  • On each Re-Spin, the Wild shifts one reel to the left.
  • Re-Spins end when there are no more Wild symbols on the reels.
  • This feature is active in both the main game and Free Spins.
  • If a Wild lands during Free Spins, Free Spins pause for the Walking Wild feature and resume once Walking Wilds conclude.
  • If additional Walking Wilds appear during Re-Spins, they continue until all have moved off the leftmost reel.

Jack’o’lector Feature in Free Spins

During Free Spins, collecting Lantern symbols on reel 5 unlocks special Wild features:

Feature Description
Stacked Hell Hound Wild When you collect 3 Lantern symbols, the next Wild symbol will appear stacked 2 symbols high as a Hell Hound Wild.*
Stacked Jack-o'-lantern Wild After collecting 6 Lantern symbols, the next Wild that appears becomes a 3 symbols high Stacked Jack-o'-lantern Wild.*
Expanding Death Reaper Wild
  • With 9 Lantern symbols collected, the next Wild to land will transform into an Expanding Death Reaper Wild.
  • This Wild expands to cover the whole reel and moves to the left one reel at a time.
  • All Lantern symbols collected are discarded when Free Spins finish.

*Stacked Wilds are Wild symbols that cover 2 or 3 positions on a reel. Their appearance depends on how the reel lands and may be fully or partially displayed. When a Stacked Wild symbol lands, a Re-Spin is triggered, moving the Stacked Wild one reel to the left until it reaches the first reel. Re-Spins then end. Scatter symbols are not present during Re-Spins, so additional Free Spins cannot be triggered during these spins. The maximum number of Lantern symbols that can be collected in a single session is 9.
