The ordinary Wild ladder doubles at each step
The verified line multipliers are 2×, 4×, 8×, 16× and 32× for one through five Wilds. This is a doubling ladder, not a rule that simply adds two for every Wild.
For an illustrative ordinary line award of €0.50, two qualifying Wilds make the multiplier 4× and the line pays €2. Three Wilds would make it 8× and produce €4. These examples explain the multiplier calculation; the underlying symbol award must still be read from the selected-bet paytable.
Gift of Midas is a base-game event
Gift of Midas can trigger randomly in the base game. Its effect places either one to nine Wilds or one to three Scatters in random positions. The title-specific rules say the feature is not available during the bonus game.
These are different outcomes. Added Wilds can help line combinations; added Scatters can help meet the entry condition. The description does not guarantee both groups on the same activation, and it does not establish a fixed interval between activations.
Three or more Scatters open the bonus
At least three Scatters trigger Free Spins. The initial number of spins depends on the Scatter count. The narrative client rules do not include the complete award table, so the allowance should be checked on the actual paytable or entry display.
This is preferable to importing the first game’s or a later sequel’s starting allowance. The shared title and visual theme do not prove that every bonus-entry table remained unchanged.
Sticky Respins preserve the winning positions
During the bonus, a win starts the Sticky Respin feature. Symbols belonging to winning lines are locked, and the other positions respin. The sequence continues until no additional winning symbols are locked.
The stopping condition is the absence of newly locked winning positions, not the total absence of any visible matching symbols. Existing held symbols can remain on screen while the continuation ends. This distinction prevents a replay from being described as an unlimited loop simply because the original winning line is still visible.
An Epic Wild appears at the start of each Free Spin
The bonus places an Epic Wild on the reels at the beginning of each Free Spin. It starts with a 2× multiplier and substitutes for symbols other than the Scatter. Its upgrade system is distinct from merely counting ordinary Wilds in a line.
The practical reading task is to identify the Epic Wild’s current value and the held positions in the current respin sequence. Do not assume the entire field shares the displayed Epic Wild multiplier regardless of whether it participates in the relevant result.
Three collected Scatters double the Epic Wild value
Collecting three Scatters fills the meter, doubles the Epic Wild multiplier up to 32× and awards two additional Free Spins. Collected Scatters persist across Free Spins and respins during the feature.
Starting from 2×, successive upgrades lead to 4×, 8×, 16× and 32×. The display therefore records more than a decorative collection. It changes the multiplier available to the feature while also extending the spin allowance. Reaching one stage does not guarantee enough subsequent Scatters to reach the next.
Feature Buy and BET+ are separate cost questions
The documented game supports purchase and enhanced-entry options where enabled. The public rules describe Bonus Boost as twice as likely to trigger the bonus and Bonus Boost Plus as five times as likely, with charges and RTP values supplied by the active configuration.
Those chance descriptions do not mean the next spin is guaranteed to trigger. Nor do they establish that an increased chance provides better value per amount spent. The Bonus Buy cost guide separates the base stake, added charge and full purchase price. This review does not fill unresolved configuration fields with prices copied from a different version.
