Leading iGaming content provider Spinomenal has brewed up a potent new addition to its Hold & Hit range, 3 Pots of Baba Yaga.
Set in a dark forest clearing after nightfall, the 5×3 reels sit within a frame of twisted branches, with pale mushrooms and animal skulls scattered across the forest floor. A raven watches from a bare limb while three cauldrons simmer above the grid in green, red and blue. A low, brooding soundtrack completes the eerie atmosphere as players wait for the coins to drop.
Baba Yaga is the Wild symbol and substitutes for all symbols except the Bonus, BOOST, COLLECT, MULTI and Jackpot symbols, paying x10 for five on a line, x2 for four and x0.5 for three. Runs of three or four Wilds only pay when a Bonus or Special Bonus symbol follows them. Alongside the standard Bonus symbol, 3 Pots of Baba Yaga has three Special Bonus symbols carrying the powers of each cauldron.
Six or more qualifying symbols, in any combination of Bonus and Special Bonus symbols, will launch the Bonus Game. The symbols that triggered it stay locked in play, and the round begins with three spins. During the feature, only Bonus and Special Bonus symbols can appear. Each spin can award multipliers of x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x7 and x10 the total bet, as well as any of the in-game Jackpots.
The green BOOST symbol picks a random value worth x2, x3, x4, x5, x7 or x10 of the bet, adds it to every symbol on the reels and holds that value as its own. The red MULTI symbol takes a random multiplier of x2, x3 or x5, applies it across all symbols on the reels and then claims a value of its own. The blue COLLECT symbol gathers the value of every Bonus symbol on the grid and adds the lot to its own total. Each new symbol landing returns the spin counter to three. The round ends after three winless spins, once all 15 cells are filled, or when the total collected winnings reach the maximum x3,000 multiplier.
Mini, Minor and Major Jackpot symbols can land at random during the Bonus Game and will trigger the corresponding Jackpot, worth x20, x50 and x150 the total bet. Filling the full grid of 15 cells pays the Grand Jackpot of x3,000.
A MYSTERY symbol may also appear during the Bonus Game, transforming into a random BOOST, MULTI, COLLECT or Jackpot symbol.
The Bonus Blast Feature can launch randomly in the base game, spreading extra Bonus and Special Bonus symbols onto the reels to speed up entry into the Bonus Game.
The features available in any round are limited to the Special Bonus symbols that appeared on the triggering spin, or those revealed later by a MYSTERY symbol. Once a feature is in play, it can land naturally on the grid again.
Spinomenal CO-CEO, Omer Henya commented: "3 Pots of Baba Yaga draws players into a haunted Slavic forest, where three enchanted cauldrons each bring a different twist to the Bonus Game. Combined with atmospheric artwork and our proven Hold & Hit mechanics, it delivers a memorable experience that players will want to revisit."
