Pug Thugs
Game rules
Pug Thugs is a 6 column, 6 rows slot with spinning reels and connecting paylines originating from all 4 sides of the game grid.
The minimum bet is £ 0.20, and the maximum bet is £ 100.00. Each bet is 100 coins.
Paylines begin with the first column or row of symbols from one of the four directions (left, top, right or bottom) and only pay through connecting symbols either straight or diagonally. Three or more connecting symbols are required. No gaps between the symbols on the paylines are allowed. Only the longest payline per active payline is paid out.
All winning symbols and Nitro Reels on the game grid respin after a win.
A game round starts on the selected bet level when the player hits the Spin button.
Winnings and winning combinations are paid out according to the Paytable.
Winnings are presented in the player's currency or in coins. The player can change preference in Settings.
Winnings are presented in the player's currency.
Pug Thugs is played in two modes; normal mode and bonus mode with free spins.
The wild symbol substitutes for any symbol except the bonus symbol, the super bonus symbol, and the coin symbols. A payline of only wild symbols pays as the highest value symbol.
A Nitro Reel only covers one symbol position but contains a stack of symbols. The size indicator on the Nitro Reel indicates the number of symbols in the stack.
Intersecting paylines create a Nitro Reel in the intersecting position after the payout. If there is already a Nitro Reel in that position, that Nitro Reel
will be upgraded.
Nitro Reels can be upgraded to have a bigger size indicator that contains additional symbols in the symbol stack. The maximum size indicator is 8.
Nitro Reels that contain a bonus symbol or a super bonus symbol temporarily deactivates the size indicator of the Nitro Reel and represents only one symbol instance.
Nitro Reels containing coin symbols contribute the number of coins represented by the size indicator when collected.
All Nitro Reels will land on the same symbol after respins.
The four Feature Screens in the corners of the game grid may randomly trigger their respective feature. Several features can be triggered at the same time.
The Feature Screens can trigger the Make Big, Collect, Nitro Wild and Nitro Match features. The Collect, Nitro Wild and Nitro Match features will stay active in the Feature Screens until used or the spin ends.
The Make Big feature will expand a random symbol on the game grid until it covers 2 x 2, 3 x 3 or 4 x 4 symbol positions.
The Collect feature is activated prior to the win evaluation, and it collects the values of all coins currently on the game grid and keeps the accumulated value on the screen. The coin symbols respin after a collect and can then land on either a coin symbol or a payout symbol. The process of collect and respin is repeated until there are no more coin symbols on the game grid. The total accumulated value times the current active bet is paid out once the feature has ended.
At the start of the Collect feature, a Coin Rain feature may randomly be triggered. Coin Rain will scatter additional coins on the grid.
The Nitro Wild feature will convert one or more Nitro Reels on the game grid into Nitro Reels containing wild symbols.
The Nitro Match feature will select a random symbol on the game grid
and match all Nitro Reels on the game grid with the selected symbol.
If more than one of the four feature screens stop on a feature at the same time, they are always activated in the same order. First Make Big followed by Collect, Nitro Match, and finally Nitro Wild. The Collect, Nitro Match and Nitro Wild features are kept during potential subsequent respins if they can't be activated.
The Nitro Insane feature may randomly be triggered at the beginning of any spin.
Nitro Insane places a random number of Nitro Reels inside the central 4 x 4 area of the game grid prior to the other reels stop.
Three or more bonus symbols anywhere on the reels trigger the Free Spins Bonus Game.
The feature screens are cleared for every new free spin.
A Nitro Insane feature is triggered in the beginning of every free spin in the bonus game.
There are no super bonus symbols in the bonus game.

All Nitro Reels are kept sticky and remain in play for the remaining free spins during the super bonus game.
Three or more bonus symbols during Bonus mode retrigger additional free spins.
The bonus mode starts once potential respins and activated features have been played through. Features that are not yet activated are deleted.

Winnings are paid out at the end of the Bonus Game.
