Game Rules
If players are brave enough to face the widow, they’ll find plenty of interesting game features.
Wilds
The game’s wild is the red and gold web symbol. When it drops onto any of the five playreels, the wild replaces all standard symbols and helps to form winning combinations.
Scatter Capture
This is the game’s biggest draw. The scatter capture positions are in the centre of reels one and five, and in the spirit of the game’s theme, are signified by golden webs which wrap around the boxes.
If two matching high paying symbols (the web, widow, green, blue and purple gentleman) land in the scatter capture positions, then all visible symbols of the same type on the payreels award a scatter payout.
Additionally, the wild symbol, which is a red and gold web, substitutes for any of the four high paying symbols and activates the lucrative scatter capture feature.
Free Spins
Free spins are awarded if three cash boxes land on reels two, three or four. This rewards seven, nine or 11 free spins, respectively. Players can’t generate more free spins during the bonus round, although the lucrative scatter capture, as explained above, is still in play.
