How Force of Nature plays
Wins pay along 20 fixed lines. The low-paying symbols are card ranks from 10 to ace, and the higher ones are weather-struck rocks such as the volcano, the tornado and the flood stone, with the game’s logo above them. The wild substitutes for the regular symbols and is also the top-paying symbol, worth up to 1,000x for five on a line.
What sets the base game apart is that the weather can step in on any spin. Three random features can trigger:
- Earthquake: the reels shake and two whole reels turn wild.
- Flood: water rises over the reels and, as it recedes, leaves wild symbols behind.
- Tornado: a random number of symbols are blown away and replaced by matching ones, which can complete more lines.
None of these needs a scatter, and each works differently, with whole wild reels, scattered wilds or matched symbols, which gives the base game more variety than most 20-line slots.
Free spins and sticky wilds
Three bonus symbols landing on reels 1, 3 and 5 at the same time trigger 10 free spins.
During the round, wild symbols land on reels 1 to 4 and freeze in place for up to three spins, so a wild that lands early can help several spins in a row. When new wilds join the ones already held, the reels can fill up with wilds quickly.
Reel 5 has its own job in the round. A +1 symbol can land there, and each one adds an extra free spin.
All wins in the game, including those in free spins, are capped at 1,000x stake.
