Paylines:

Active paylines are represented by lines that appear over the reels. Paylines can be activated and their shape displayed by progressively clicking Lines.

Please note: Only active paylines can register wins. The Scatter symbol is an exception to this rule. More information about the Scatter symbol can be found, below.

Please note: There is a difference between the line bet and the total bet. The line bet shows how much is being bet on a single payline. The total bet shows all game round bets. Payouts shown in the paytable are multiplied by the line bet. An exception to this is the Scatter symbol where the payout shown in the paytable is multiplied by the total bet. If winning combinations exist on more than one payline, winnings for each payline are added up.

About payouts:

Payouts are listed on the Paytable screen. To find the possible win amount, the line bet must be multiplied by the payout.

If two winning combinations occur on the same line, the higher of them is paid out. If more than one active payline has a winning combination, the winnings are added up.

Winning combinations must start from the left most reel, and the symbols have to be consecutive. The Scatter symbol is an exception to this rule. More information about the Scatter symbol can be found below.

The Wild Symbol

The Wild symbol (the Incredible Hulk) appears only on reels 2, 3 and 4. The Wild symbol can stand for any other symbol, except for Scatter and the Smash Bonus symbol (the symbol with the words 'SMASH BONUS' on it), to make the best possible winning combination.

At this point, every position on reel 3 is considered to be occupied by a Wild symbol. 2 free spins (re-spins) are awarded, in which only reels 1, 2, 4, and 5 spin, and reel 3 remains Wild. When the two re-spins are finished and the winning paylines have been paid, reel 3 will return to its original position, and normal game will resume.

Smashing each car reveals a cash prize. Once 3 cars have been picked, the player is asked to pick 1 out of 3 police helicopters to win a multiplier for the prize amount. The prize won is the accumulated cash won times the multiplier.

Slot Machine Variants

Below is a brief explanation on every type of slot machine:

3-Reel Standard Slots - these are the most usual slot machines. You bet a certain amount, then spin the three reels and depending on the outcome of the spin, you either win or lose.

3-Reel Max Bet 2 Slots - these machines allow you to bet the maximum of two coins, not three as in Standard Slots.

Progressive Jackpot - a progressive jackpot means that a certain percentage of every bet goes into the progressive jackpot pool. You win the jackpot by obtaining a very high symbol combination, usually only when playing for maximum bet.

Bonus Game - machines that have a Bonus Game require you to obtain a special symbol combination, or collect certain symbols. When you do, you will enter a bonus round, with special prizes waiting for you. Please note that in some games you have to play for maximum bet to qualify for a bonus round.

3-Line and 5-Line Slot Machines - here you specify your bet per payline, and the paylines on which you bet. A payline is the line along which Your total bet is then line bet x number of lines selected. 3-Line Slots have 3 lines for you to choose between, and 5-Line slots have 5.

Multiline Slots - same as above, only these machines have more than 5 lines, usually 8 or 9.

3-Row and 5-Row Multispin Slots - this is the giant leap for slot machines. In multispin slots, after the first spin you choose which reels you want to hold, then spin the rest of the reels again. 3-row and 5-row mean you have 3 or 5 rows of reels, like in multiline video poker you have multiple hands.
