The Legend of Shangri-La Cluster Pays Slot Game Overview
The bet sizes available in The Legend of Shangri-La Cluster Pays range from 10p to £20.
Cluster Pays
A symbol is considered as part of a cluster if it is horizontally or vertically adjacent to the same symbol.
Landing nine or more of the same symbol in a cluster awards a win.
Simultaneous wins from multiple clusters are added together.
Multiple clusters of the same symbol that are not adjacent to each other pay as separate clusters.
Stacked Symbols
The Guru and Free Spins symbols can appear as stacked symbols anywhere on the reels.
During the Sticky Re-Spins feature and when affected by Substitution symbols, the Guru symbols cover one position.
If a Substitution symbol lands on a stacked Guru Symbol and transforms, the exposed part of the Guru will transform into a single version.
The Substitution symbol is not related to the symbol it covers.
Stacked symbols will be fully or partially displayed depending on how the reel lands.
Substitution Symbols
A Substitution symbol transforms into an adjacent symbol in order to create the highest possible win.
If no winning combination can be created by a Substitution symbol then they will not transform.
If only Substitution symbols are present on the reels then they will transform into the highest value symbol.
Substitution symbols cannot substitute for Free Spin symbols.
Main Game Features
There are four different features that can only be triggered during the main game:
- Random Substitutions
- Sticky Re-Spins
- Nudge Reel
- Free Spins
Random Substitutions
Random Substitutions can be activated when at least two clusters of the same symbol appear in the main game.
If this feature is activated, at least one Substitution symbol is added to the reels at positions adjacent to the existing clusters.
More Substitution symbols are added to the reels until a win is achieved.
The Random Substitutions feature cannot be activated if there are three Free Spins symbols fully or partially present on the reels, or if Nudge Reel can be activated.
The Substitution symbols are added to positions adjacent to the existing clusters or other Substitution symbols, except for reels 1 and 6.
Sticky Re-Spins
At least two non-winning clusters of the same symbol, appearing anywhere on the reels, can trigger this feature.
If there are two symbols which each meet the condition then the lowest-paying symbol is chosen.
Each initial cluster must consist of at least five symbols, and a maximum of eight symbols.
It is not possible to win on any other symbol than the symbol that triggered the feature - this is referred to as the feature symbol.
Nudge Reel
Should two Free Spin symbols land on the reels, with another Free Spin symbol on the right of them, then that third symbol can be nudged back onto the reels to trigger the Free Spins Bonus.
This feature will not be triggered if the nudging can increase, decrease or create a winning cluster.
If this feature is triggered, one Free Spin symbol is nudged back onto the reels to activate the Free Spins Bonus.
If there are several symbols that fulfil the criteria then the left-most symbol is chosen.
Free Spins Bonus
Landing three or more Free Spin Scatter symbols across the reels triggers the Free Spins Bonus.
The number of free spins awarded is dependent on how many Free Spin symbols you land, as shown below.
Free Spins Symbols | Free Spins |
|---|---|
| 3 | 5 |
| 4 | 6 |
| 5 | 7 |
| 6 | 8 |
Substitution symbols are added to and removed from the reels at random after each spin.
The first two Substitution symbols are randomly placed on the reels.
The rest of the symbols are added to positions adjacent to clusters formed by the first two Substitution symbols.
Between two and six Substitution symbols are added to the reels.
If a Substitution symbol can create a winning cluster then they will transform into the selected symbol.
The symbols that were originally Substitution symbols transform back into their original form.
Before the next spin, between one and four Substitution symbols are removed from the reels, from random positions.
A minimum of two Substitution symbols will always remain on the reels between spins
The first two Substitution symbols will be randomly placed on the reels.
After each spin and once the reels have stopped, between two and six Substitution symbols are added to the reels.
Before the next spin, between one and four Substitution symbols are removed from the reels, from random positions.
Extra Spin
If the total win from your Free Spins Bonus is less than 10x your bet then one additional spin may be awarded.
No Substitution symbols are removed from the reels for this spin.
This extra spin cannot be re-activated in the same Free Spins Bonus.
