Features explained (members only)
3 features explained: hold and win, respins, free spins
Hold and win
Landing enough special cash or coin symbols starts a respin feature: those symbols lock in place, the respin counter resets each time a new one lands, and their values are collected when the feature ends.
Respins
Selected reels or the whole grid spin again without a new stake, usually triggered by a specific symbol combination or near-miss feature.
Free spins
A bonus round of spins played at no cost to your balance, usually triggered by landing three or more scatter symbols. Wins during the round are added to your balance, and many games let you retrigger extra spins.
