Introduction
It's no mystery why you should play this game. Cluedo features
our largest jackpot ever - in the millions! Combine that with 20
paylines of classic murder mystery fun, and you have more than
probable cause to love this game.
Line up 5 MegaJackpots symbols on the centre payline with max bet,
and you win a life-changing award (just don't tell Miss Scarlet or
Professor Plum).
Additionally, the Wild MegaJackpots symbol can double your line
pays!
Get three or more Mystery Bonus symbols anywhere on the reels, and
suddenly the lights go out, lightning strikes, and you earn 15 free
spins on a secret set of golden reels. All wins on these reels are
tripled (except for 5 MegaJackpots symbols) and you can potentially
retrigger this bonus multiple times, up to 180 free spins! And with
max bet, each free spin is also another free chance to win the
Jackpot!
The Cluedo mansion may look foreboding, but vast riches await you
inside. Come on in and try to make a killing.
How To Wager
Cluedo has 20 paylines. You can bet 1-5 credits on each
payline.
In the LINE BET box, you see your current bet per
line. Click on the left arrow (with a minus sign) to decrease your
bet per line by one. Click on the right arrow (with a plus sign) to
increase your bet per line by one. You can also click and drag
between the arrows to select a value.
Click the BET MAX button to bet the maximum, which is
5 credits on each payline. If you have fewer than 100 credits,
BET MAX is not enabled.
Click the PLAY button to spin the reels.
If you do not want to bet on all 20 paylines, you can use the
LINES control to change the number of paylines you are
playing. In the LINES box, you see the current number
of paylines you are playing. Click the left arrow (with a minus
sign) to decrease the number of paylines you are playing. Click the
right arrow (with a plus sign) to increase the number of paylines
you are playing. You can also click and drag between the arrows to
select a value.
Winning the Jackpot
To be eligible for the Jackpot, you must bet max (5 credits bet
on all 20 lines - 100 credits).
You win the Jackpot if you get 5 MegaJackpots symbols on the
centre payline on a max bet play.
If you get 5 MegaJackpots symbols on an active payline other than
the centre payline at max bet, then you earn the standard paytable
award for a 5 MegaJackpots symbol win.
The Jackpot can be won from within any Mystery Bonus free spin
if that bonus was triggered with a max bet play
Free Spin Mystery Bonus
Mystery Bonus symbols appearing in any position on two or more
reels earn you a scatter award relative to your total bet. The more
Mystery Bonus symbols appearing, the larger your scatter award
multiplier. Please see the paytable for specifics.
In addition, Mystery Bonus symbols appearing in any position on
three or more reels triggers the Mystery Bonus.
Your effective bet for all of your free spins is exactly the same
as the bet you placed when you triggered the bonus.
Free spins are played out automatically.
The paytable for free spins is the same as for the regular Cluedo
game except that all wins are tripled. The bonus multiplier does
not apply to the top award (5 MegaJackpots symbols).
You can win the Jackpot during your free spins if you triggered
the bonus with a max bet play. You win the Jackpot if you get 5
MegaJackpots symbols on the centre payline on a max bet play.
If during a free spin, Mystery Bonus symbols appear on three or
more reels, you earn an additional 15 free spins, up to a maximum
of 180 free spins.
After the last free spin, if you had one or more winning outcomes
in the bonus, the total of all awards is displayed.
Gamble
After any award less than 3000 credits, you have the opportunity
to gamble your win in a completely fair round of double or
nothing.
Click the GAMBLE button after a win to Gamble an
award. A deck of Gamble cards appears which always contains an
equal number of red and black aces. Click RED or
BLACK to guess which colour ace will appear next. If
the colour you predicted is revealed, then your gambled money is
doubled! If the other colour is revealed, then your Gamble bet is
forfeited and the Gamble round is concluded.
Click the TAKE HALF button to deposit half of your
winnings back into your main balance, leaving the other half
available for further gambling. You can click TAKE
HALF once before each Gamble try.
Click the TAKE WIN button to collect all of your
winnings and end the Gamble round.
If you win 5 gambles in a row within the same Gamble round, or if
your Gamble award reaches 3000 or higher, your Gamble round
automatically ends.
With the deck of cards, you have a 50:50 chance of revealing
either a red or black ace with every choice. Though the history of
the last fourteen outcomes (red, black) is also provided, each card
chosen is completely independent.
Options
Clicking the OPTIONS button reveals a panel that
allows you to customise your game experience.
You can customise the GRAPHICS QUALITY of the game.
You may want to adjust the quality of the graphics to get the
optimal animation performance on your computer. In
BEST mode, the graphics look the best, but performance
may suffer. The HIGH (default) and MEDIUM
settings lower the quality but increase the performance. In
LOW mode, the graphics are degraded, but the smoothest
animation performance is achieved even on slower computers.
You can customise the AUDIO settings of the game. The
audio can be turned ON or OFF, depending
on your preference.
Rules
Malfunction voids all pays and plays.
All payline wins occur on bet-upon lines only, except for the
Mystery Bonus symbol scatter pay.
Only the highest winner is paid on each payline.
Only one award is paid per payline.
Coinciding wins on different paylines are added. Scatter awards
are independent from payline awards and are also added to the total
amount paid.
One or more MegaJackpots symbols completing a line win doubles the
award value, except when the line win consists of only MegaJackpots
symbols.
Bonus trigger within a free spin adds an additional 15 spins, up
to a maximum of 180 total free spins within any bonus round.
Awards are shown in credits except for the Jackpot, which is shown
in currency.
To be eligible for the Jackpot, you must bet max (5 credits bet on
each line with all lines bet).
When you win the Jackpot, a message appears notifying you that
customer service will contact you within 24 hours with details of
your Jackpot payout. The award verification may take up to 72
hours, and the win will not be reflected in your account balance.
You may continue to play or use gamble feature. It will not affect
your jackpot. The Jackpot cannot be gambled.
The amount paid after verification is approximately the amount
seen on the Jackpot meter when the win occurs. Potentially, the
awarded Jackpot could be somewhat higher because of display delays.
The Jackpot paid may also be higher due to meter smoothing, when
some meter growth from peak times may be spread across slower
periods. In an exceptionally rare case, the award value could be
the Jackpot seed amount if your Jackpot winning outcome occurred
just after another player's Jackpot win but before the Jackpot
meter was able to reset due to this earlier winner.
All applicable taxes and fees in connection with any winnings
awarded to you and any other payments to you are your sole
responsibility. Winnings cannot be transferred, substituted, or
redeemed for any other consideration.
The casino may deactivate this game at any time. If the casino
decides to continue the game after a Jackpot is won, the casino is
under no obligation to re-seed the Jackpot with the amount of the
previous seed or any other amount. In the event that the casino
decides to terminate the game, or the game becomes permanently
unavailable due to unforeseeable circumstances, the casino holds
any funds shown in the Jackpot meter. The casino may increase or
decrease the size of the Jackpot award by contributing or removing
money at any time.
Jackpot award paid in equal installments. First installment paid
upon validation of win. Balance paid in 19 annual
installments.
Jackpot represents an increasing top award where the rate of
growth is determined and adjusted by the MegaJackpots administrator
based on business rules.
