How to play Sherlock and Moriarty WowPot (members only)

Wins are paid when matching symbols land on an active payline, usually left to right starting from the leftmost reel. Your total stake is spread across the lines, and each line win is the line bet multiplied by the symbol's paytable value.

Sherlock and Moriarty WowPot is played on a 5×3 grid with 20 paylines.

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 92.1% RTP costs per $100 wagered

Multipliers are applied to wins as they land; in many games several multipliers add together or multiply each other, which is where the largest wins come from.

What 92.1% RTP means

Expected return = stake × 92.1%
Over $100 of total bets, the long-run average loss is $7.90

RTP is a long-run average across millions of spins. Any single session can finish far above or below it, especially on a medium volatility game.

The published hit frequency is 27%, meaning roughly one spin in 3.7 returns something — though many of those wins are smaller than the stake.

Features explained (members only)

8 features explained: bonus wheel, free spins, multipliers, mystery symbols and more

Bonus wheel

A wheel feature that awards a prize, multiplier, jackpot or entry into another bonus round.

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.

Multipliers

Multipliers increase a win by a set factor, such as 2x or 10x. They can be attached to symbols, applied to a whole spin, or grow during a feature, and are a main driver of the biggest wins.

Mystery symbols

Special symbols that all reveal the same randomly chosen regular symbol, which can complete several wins at once.

Progressive jackpot

A jackpot that grows with a share of every qualifying bet until someone wins it. Contributions are funded from the game's RTP.

Respins

Selected reels or the whole grid spin again without a new stake, usually triggered by a specific symbol combination or near-miss feature.

Sticky wilds

Sticky wilds stay locked in place for several spins or for the rest of a feature, giving every following spin a better chance of connecting wins.

Wild symbols

Wilds substitute for regular paying symbols to help complete winning combinations. They do not normally replace scatter or bonus symbols.

Strategy tips (members only)

Size your stake to the volatility. Medium volatility balances hit rate and win size. Expect dry spells between features, but not extreme swings. A simple rule: bring at least 200 spins' worth of budget, so a $50 budget suggests a stake of about $0.25.

3 more tips and a session planner

Check jackpot eligibility. Some progressive jackpots require a minimum or maximum stake to win the top prize. Part of every bet funds the jackpot, so base-game RTP is lower.
Bonus wagering: at 92.1% RTP, clearing $1,000 of wagering costs about $79.00 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.
