Hotline Bonus Bet

Hotline Bonus Bet is a bonus bet feature that increases the chance to win Expanding Wilds and Re-Spins for a higher bet.
Every row is a Hotline. Every Hotline can be activated or deactivated. One Hotline is always activated.
When one Hotline is activated, the game is played with Base Bet (15 coins per bet level).
If two Hotlines are activated, the game is played with Double Bet (30 coins per bet level).
If three Hotlines are activated, the game is played with Triple Bet (45 coins per bet level).
The more Hotlines are activated, the higher is the chance for Expanding Wilds and the possibility to win Re-Spins.

Wild symbols can appear anywhere on the reels in the main game, Re-Spins and Free Spins and substitute for all symbols except for Scatter symbols.
If a Wild symbol lands on an activated Hotline, it expands to cover the entire reel.
Wild and Expanding Wild symbol substitution pays the highest possible winning combination on a bet line according to the Paytable.

In the main game and Re-Spins, if a Wild symbol lands on an activated Hotline, it expands to cover the entire reel and awards a Re-Spin after all wins have been evaluated.
The Expanding Wild remains on the reels until the end of the Re-Spins.
Re-Spins end if no new Wild symbols land on an activated Hotline.
Re-Spins are played at the same bet level, coin value, and the same activated Hotlines as the spin that activated the Re-Spins.
Any Re-Spins wins are added to any wins from the initial spin.
If Free Spins and Re-Spins are won simultaneously, Free Spins are activated first.

3 Scatter symbols appearing anywhere on reels 1, 3, and 5 in the main game activate 7 Free Spins.
In Free Spins, if a Wild symbol lands on an activated Hotline, it expands to cover the entire reel and remains on the reels until the end of the Free Spins.
Additional Free Spins cannot be won during Free Spins.
Free Spins are played at the same bet level, coin value, and the same activated Hotlines as the round that activated Free Spins.
At the end of Free Spins, the total win from Free Spins is added to any wins from the round that activated Free Spins.
At the end of Free Spins, the game returns to the round that activated Free Spins.
If Free Spins and Re-Spins are won simultaneously, Free Spins are activated first.
Free Spins cannot be activated during the Re-Spins.
