Elektra

5-reel 20-line Slots

The object of Elektra is to obtain winning symbol combinations by spinning the reels.

To play the game:

• A wagering denomination can be chosen by clicking the Click to Change denomination button in the lower left-hand corner of the screen.
• Line bets are chosen by clicking Bet per Line. Each click adds a coin to the line bet. When the maximum amount is reached, clicking the button again resets the line bet to one coin.
• Paylines are chosen by clicking Lines. Each click activates a payline. When all paylines are activated, clicking the button again resets it to one active payline. Paylines can also be activated by using the numbered buttons on either side of the reels. Selecting a high payline includes all the lower ones too. For example, selecting payline 6 also activates paylines 1 through 5. Clicking Bet Max activates all paylines with the maximum bet per line and spins the reels.
• Total bet per game round = line bet X active paylines.
• Clicking Spin spins the reels with the current selection of lines and line bets. During the reel spins the Spin button changes into Stop. Clicking Stop ends the spin animation and immediately displays the spin result.
• Reels can also be spun using the Auto Start function. Clicking + or - above Auto Start selects the successive number of spins to be enabled. Clicking Auto Start spins the reels. The Auto Start button changes into Stop during the Auto Start mode of reelspin. The Auto Start mode ends when the reels have been spun the number of times determined by the player, or when the player clicks Stop.
• Wins are calculated according to the paytable. Line win = line bet X corresponding multiplier according to the paytable. Scatter win = total bet X corresponding multiplier according to the paytable. The paytable can be accessed via the Info page.
• On a given payline, only the highest payline winning combination pays while simultaneous winnings on different paylines are added up together.
• In case of a winning spin, the Win field displays the accumulating winnings. The win ticker can be stopped by clicking on the Win field.
• Payline wins and the total win are also displayed on the black strip located at the bottom of the game window.

Info page:

• Clicking Info opens the reference screen describing different game components. Clicking the arrow buttons at the lower right-hand corner of the screen enables navigating between the different info screens.
  • The Paytable screen shows all winning combinations. When opened after a winning spin, the winning symbol combinations (number of symbols and bet multiplier) are highlighted and blink.
  • The Bonus screen describes the necessary combination of symbols to enter the bonus round and describes the bonus round rules.
  • Weapons Bonus screen describes the three weapon options and explains the bonus game rules.
  • Marvel Multi-Level Mystery Progressive Jackpot screen describes how to win entry to the Marvel Multi-Level Mystery Progressive Jackpot game that wins one of four jackpots, and explains the game's rules.
• Show Paylines can be clicked from the Paytable page to open a screen which illustrates all possible payline combinations. Clicking Hide Paylines closes this screen and returns to the Paytable page.
• Clicking Back exits the Info screen and returns to the game.

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 this 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. The payouts shown in the paytable are multiplied by the line bet. An exception to this is the Scatter symbol, for which the payouts shown in the paytable are multiplied by the total bet. If winning combinations occur on more than one payline, the winnings for each payline are added up.

The Scatter symbol is an exception to these rules. More information about the Scatter symbol can be found below.

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 payline 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 these rules. More information about the Scatter symbol can be found below.

Wild symbol

The Wild symbol in the game is the symbol. It appears only on reels #2, #3 and #4 and can stand for any other symbol, except Scatter, to make the best possible winning combination.

Expanding Wild symbol in the Free Games

If a Wild symbol appears on a reel after a free game and it is possible to have a winning combination by having a Wild substitute for any other symbol (except Scatter) anywhere on that reel, it will expand to cover the entire reel. All places on the reel will be considered as Wild for that spin alone. All winning combinations that result from this will be paid.

Scatter symbol

The Scatter symbol in the game is the symbol. The Scatters do not have to occur on a particular payline - if there are two or more Scatter symbols in the spin results, an additional win is earned. The payout for the Scatter symbols is multiplied by the total bet. If 3 or more Scatters appear on the reels simultaneously, regardless of position, Weapons Bonus Game is initiated.

If three or more Scatters appear anywhere on the reels during Free Games, only a payout is awarded but the bonus round will not be re-triggered.

Weapons Bonus Game

The Weapons Bonus round is triggered when three or more Scatter symbols appear anywhere on the reels. To enter the bonus round, click on Click to Start. You are asked to choose one of three weapons, each offering a different number of free games and a different win multiplier. A multiplier means that any win is multiplied by that number. These are the choices:

• Sai Swords: 10 free games
• Shuriken: 14 free games with multiplier X2
• Bow and Arrow: 7 free games with multiplier X4

Once the choice is made, the Free Games begin automatically.

During the Free Games, the line bet, coin size and number of lines are those last played.

Within the Free Games, the symbol of the chosen weapon will replace on the reels the two symbols of the weapons not chosen and will pay according to that symbol's paytable. The Wild symbol in Free Games acts as Expanding Wild (see above).

At the end of the Free Games, a special screen detailing the feature wins appears. To return to the main game, click Continue.

More info on different kinds of Slot Machines:

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.
