Slot Features
It’s all about the Gold, and according to that, the Golden Age symbol, Rome, Wild are your key symbols in the game, so let’s disassemble this in bits to get a better picture.
Wild
Wild symbol can sub in for all the symbols in the game except the Scatter, the Golden Age and the Rome symbols. The Wild will sub in the symbols when there is a chance to form a win combo of course.
Frames
When the Golden Age symbol hits the reels, its position will be marked with a Frame, and you might sometimes see that symbol randomly turn into a Rome symbol. If a Rome symbols is framed, then it will turn into Wild on the next spin, and all the adjacent positions with Frames will also turn Wild as well as the positions next to them. This can go on up to 5 times. All Frames and Active Frames do not disappear until they either turn Wild or trigger the Free Spins round.
Free Spins
Hit 3 Scatter symbols that can land on reels 2, 3 and 4, and you will get yourself into the Free Spins round with initiating number of spins totalling 3. During the Free Spins round, each position except the locked ones, will spin individually, and only Rome symbols are expected to land the grid.
All positions with Frames and Active Frames that did not turn Wild during the Free Spins triggering round will become locked and stick the reels awarding a random prize between x0.5 and x50 the bet at the end of Free Spins round.
During the round, Rome symbol can land on any unlocked position awarding a prize between x0.5 and x50 the bet, which will then reset the Spins counter back to 3. Once the round ends, all prizes will get multiplied by the Free Spins Multiplier that has been collected in the main game. The round ends when the spins counter reaches 0.
Free Spins Multiplier
During the base game, each Golden Age symbol that lands on a position without a Frame or an Active Frame, you will get 1 point credited to the progress bar. Every time the symbol lands on a position with Frame or Active Frame a random number of points ranging between 1 and 4 will get credited to the bar. When you reach 200 point the Free Spins Multiplier will get upgraded progressively, and it can reach up to x1000. With each upgrade, the point bar will reset to 0, and if the Multiplier reaches x1000, no more points will get added to the bar until the Free Spins round is triggered and ended so that the current multiplier can be spent. When the Multiplier gets applied, after the round ends, it will be reset back to x1.
