How to play Beam Boys (members only)
Instead of fixed lines, matching symbols on adjacent reels pay in any position, starting from the leftmost reel. The more matching symbols there are on each reel, the more ways the combination pays.
Beam Boys is played on a 6×4 grid with 4,096 ways.
- Set your stake. Choose your total bet per spin between $0.10 and $100. Wins are paid as multiples of this stake.
- Check the paytable. Open the game's info screen to see what each symbol pays and the exact rules for this version.
- Spin. Each spin's result is decided by a certified random number generator, independent of previous spins.
- Trigger the bonus. Land the required scatter symbols to start the free spins feature.

How winnings work (members only)
What 96.35% RTP costs per $100 wagered, the 12,500x max win at a $1 stake
The top prize is capped at 12,500x your stake. On a $1 spin that is $12,500; on $0.20 it is $2,500. When the cap is reached the round usually ends immediately.
What 96.35% RTP means
Expected return = stake × 96.35%
Over $100 of total bets, the long-run average loss is $3.65
RTP is a long-run average across millions of spins. Any single session can finish far above or below it, especially on a low–medium volatility game.
The published hit frequency is 35%, meaning roughly one spin in 2.9 returns something — though many of those wins are smaller than the stake.
Features explained (members only)
5 features explained: free spins, wild symbols, stacked wilds, bonus buy and more
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.
Wild symbols
Wilds substitute for regular paying symbols to help complete winning combinations. They do not normally replace scatter or bonus symbols.
Stacked wilds
Wilds appear in vertical stacks covering several positions on a reel, which can connect wins across many lines at once.
Bonus buy
Lets you pay a fixed multiple of your stake to enter the bonus feature straight away instead of waiting for it to trigger. It raises variance considerably and is not available in every country (it is banned in the UK).
Ante bet
An optional extra charge on each spin, typically +25%, that increases the chance of triggering the bonus feature.
Strategy tips (members only)
- Size your stake to the volatility. Low-to-medium volatility gives fairly regular hits with occasional bigger features. It is a balanced choice for steady play and bonus wagering. A simple rule: bring at least 150 spins' worth of budget, so a $50 budget suggests a stake of about $0.33.
5 more tips and a session planner
- Check which RTP version you're playing. Hacksaw Gaming offers this game at 96.35%, 94.24%, 92.3%, 88.25%. Open the game rules at your casino and prefer sites running the 96.35% version.
- Treat bonus buys as high-risk. Buying the feature concentrates your budget into a few large-variance rounds. Many results return less than the price paid. Read our bonus buy guide first.
- Understand the ante bet. It costs more per spin to trigger features more often; it does not change the game into a better bet.
- Bonus wagering: at 96.35% RTP, clearing $1,000 of wagering costs about $36.50 on average. Check the bonus terms, as some casinos exclude specific games. Run your numbers in the wagering calculator.
- Set limits before you spin. Decide your loss limit and session time in advance and stop when you reach either. No pattern or betting system changes the outcome of a spin.
