Feature sequence and rule differences

Two or more locking scatters on the first four reels start respins. Their positions affect the allocation, so the trigger depends on placement as well as count.

Understanding the rules

A Wild substitutes only for symbols permitted by the rules. Expansion changes the positions it occupies; a multiplier changes an eligible award. A scatter has a separate trigger or settlement role. These functions should not be treated as interchangeable.
