Game Rules and Setup

  • WonderWays & Grid Layout: Played on a 6×6 grid divided into an inner zone (reels 2–5) and an outer zone (reels 1 & 6 plus top row). Blocker symbols (marked with ‘X’) occupy parts of the outer zone on each spin.
  • Win Mechanics: Matching symbols on adjacent reels from left to right form winning ways. Clearing blockers expands the active grid, raising win ways from 46,656 up to 117,649.
  • Cascading Reels & Multiplier: Winning symbols disappear to allow new ones to drop. Each consecutive cascade during a spin increases the win multiplier by +1x (resets at the end of the base spin).
  • Wild Symbol Rules: The “W” Wild symbol substitutes for all standard paying symbols (except Scatters) to complete winning combinations.
  • RTP Variance Clause: Subject to casino operator configuration (default is 96.19%, with lower variants like 94.19% or 92.23% existing).
  • Malfunction Clause: Any technical, hardware, or software malfunction completely voids all affected game plays and payouts.

To Arms! Feature

  • Trigger: Can activate randomly on any non-winning base game spin (does not trigger on cascades).
  • Effect: Arrows shoot across the grid, replacing symbols to guarantee a 6-of-a-kind winning combination.

Release the Wilds Feature

  • Trigger: Can activate randomly on any base game spin (does not trigger on cascades).
  • Effect: Blades slash into the reels, transforming hit symbol positions directly into Wild symbols.

Foxify Mode

  • Player-activatable side bet that increases the base stake by 50%.
  • Removes all blocker symbols from the outer zone on every spin, maximizing active WonderWays and increasing the frequency of Free Spins triggers.

Feature Buy (where available)

  • Offers choices of starting win multipliers ranging from 1x up to 20x.

Free Spins Feature

  • Trigger: Landing 4 Scatter symbols spelling out H-U-N-T across reels 2–5 awards 8 Free Spins. Each extra Scatter landed on the triggering spin awards +2 additional spins.
  • Persistent Win Multiplier: Starts at 1x (or up to 20x via Feature Buy) and increases by +1x with every cascade win. Unlike the base game, the multiplier does not reset between spins.
  • Retriggers & Axe Collection: Collecting 4 Axe Scatter symbols during the feature awards +3 additional Free Spins.
