IO
Game Description
Gravity in space
Denied immediate access to Earth, the casino space station embarks on a journey to new promising frontiers in the solar system. Drawn by the superior gravity of Jupiter, the course is set to the fourth largest moon, Io! A geological, volcanic marvel, and home to immense amounts of invaluable minerals.
Io is a universal slot with gravity mechanics that draws symbols to slide left and right on their way downwards, bringing more of them into play. Rows are added for each win up to 8 rows and 262 144 ways to win!
Lasers crossing become wilds!
The Laser symbol clears all symbols in the direction it's pointing. If two laser beams cross, all symbols in their directions are turned into wilds.

-
All symbol drops in Normal mode start with 4 rows and 4 096 ways to win.
-
The maximum number of rows are 8 with maximum 262 144 ways to win.
-
The wins in the current symbol drop are collected and then all symbols included in a winning combination are removed, except for the Charged Wilds. The remaining symbols fall vertically, slide to the left and then right repeatedly until they reach a resting position. The new result is paid out and new symbols drop from above. The avalanche cycle continues as long as new winning combinations appear.
-
When the avalanche cycle ends, the next symbol drop will add one additional row of symbols at the top, resulting in an increased number of ways to win.
-
The number of ways to win increases as the number of rows increases. 4 rows: 4 096 ways to win
-
rows: 15 625 ways to win

-
The wild symbol substitutes for any symbol except the Laser, Wild Forge, Charged Wild, multiplier wild and bonus symbols. A winning combination of all wilds pays as the highest value symbol.
-
The Charged Wild symbol has 4 extra lives. It spends a life when it contributes to a win, and becomes a regular wild when it spends its fourth life. The Charged Wild substitutes for any regular symbol as a normal wild symbol.
-
Multiplier wilds are generated by the Wild Forge. They substitute for any regular symbol as normal wilds and they are additive if several contribute to the same winning combination.
-
The Wild Forge is in itself a blocker that carries a multiplier value which is initially
2. It fills an empty space below itself with a multiplier wild using the value it currently carries. The carried multiplier value increases for every empty space directly below itself that the Wild Forge moves to and for each wild multiplier symbol it generates. The Wild Forge turns into a multiplier wild, with the multiplier value it currently carries, when it falls to the bottom.
-
When the beams from two Laser symbols intersect, the Laser symbols and all regular symbols along the beams, up to the intersection point, are turned into wilds. A beam passing through another Laser symbol is considered to intersect when it reaches the second Laser symbol. Payout occurs after the symbol transformation.
-
A single Laser, remaining at the end of an avalanche cycle, removes itself and all symbols along its beam giving space for additional symbols to drop down.
-
Wilds, Charged Wilds, multiplier wilds, Wild Forge and bonus symbols are not affected by any of the Laser features.
-
Three bonus symbols (scatters) anywhere in view during Normal mode triggers Bonus mode with free drops. 7 Free drops with 8 rows are awarded. Every new free drop starts at 8 rows.
-
Three bonus symbols during Bonus mode retrigger additional free drops.
-
In the bonus game all Charged Wilds and Wild Forge symbols fall vertically, slide left and then right and remain for the next free drop. The Charged Wild spends a life at the transition to the next free drop. Wild Forge symbols reaching the bottom turn into multiplier wilds with the multiplier value they currently carry.
