How Arctic Enchantress plays
Wins pay for matching symbols on neighbouring reels from the left, with no paylines to set. The enchantress is the wild, and she lands in stacks that often show only partly on screen. When that happens a Wild Nudge can shift the stack up or down so it covers the whole reel before wins are counted, which is the main way the base game builds its larger line-ups.
- Stacked wilds: can appear on every reel, fully or partly visible.
- Castle scatters: three, four or five award 10, 15 or 20 free spins.
- Ice orbs: each one holds a cash prize or a jackpot, and six or more start the Link&Win feature.
- Win Booster: an optional setting that raises the cost of each spin; the information panel explains what it adds in the version you play.
Link&Win respins and free spins
Land six or more ice orbs and the Link&Win feature begins. The orbs that started it stay frozen in place while you respin for more, and every new orb sticks too. Fill a whole column and Column Boost can lift the cash prizes on offer there. Jackpot orbs award the Mini, Minor or Major prize, and covering every position on the reels awards the Mega jackpot. When the respins run out, the values on screen are added together.
The free spins work differently. Castle scatters trigger 10, 15 or 20 spins, and during the round any stacked wild that appears is nudged so it fills its reel. More scatters during the feature can retrigger it, so the round may run on beyond its opening count.
