Tinkerbot

Rules of the game

Tinkerbot is a 5-reel, 5-row slot that can expand to up to 7-reel and 7-row. The game features cluster wins, a set of feature symbols, a multiplier, and stacked symbols.

The current multiplier value is displayed on the TV screen. Winnings for all winning symbol clusters are multiplied by the multiplier value.

A winning cluster consists of 5 or more identical symbols connected vertically or horizontally. Only the largest cluster of identical connected symbols is paid.

A game round starts at the selected bet level when the player presses the Spin button.

If Auto Spin is activated, the game can be played automatically. Hold the Spin button or use the Auto Spin button to set the number of rounds that will be played automatically.

Winnings and winning combinations are paid according to the paytable.

Winnings are presented in the player's currency or in coins. The player can change his preferences in the settings.

Winnings are displayed in the player's currency.

There are two game modes: normal mode and bonus mode with free drops.

Wild symbols substitute for any paying symbol.

A Wild symbol can be part of several winning groups.

A game round starts with the appearance of a new set of symbols. Any winning cluster of five or more connected symbols is paid out and the symbols will then be removed. For each of the cluster wins a Botbox will be created in one of the empty symbol spaces. Botboxes are sticky, so they will remain in their symbol position and will not be affected by gravity.

Once all winning symbols have been removed from the game board, new symbols will fall to fill the empty spaces.

If 3 or more Botboxes are in view on the game board at the same time, the Botboxes will be activated one at a time.

The functions that generate Botboxes are activated as soon as the Botboxes are opened. Earnings evaluation will take place once all Botboxes have been opened. The cycle will continue until there are no more earnings.

By clearing all paying symbols on the game board, you will get a random number of additional Botboxes, in addition to the Botboxes created from cluster wins.

Instant Botbox:

The Instant Botbox is a special type of Botbox that always opens and releases a random function upon entering the game board. The Instant Botbox will not count as a normal Botbox, so it will not contribute to the Botbox counter.

Multi-Symbol Function:

The Multi-Symbol feature can appear randomly during any new symbol landing. The Multi-Symbol feature creates a collection of identical paying symbols on a single symbol position. This new collection of paying symbols counts as one paying symbol group.

The button:

A button appears on the game board and will activate either the absorb feature or the symbol transformation feature.

Absorption function:

A button on the game board triggers the Absorb feature. The Absorb feature selects one of the paying symbols adjacent to the button and moves all identical symbols to the button position to create a Multi-Symbol.

Transformation:

A button on the game board activates the transformation feature. The transformation feature selects one of the paying symbols adjacent to the button. All identical paying symbols and the button are converted into identical paying symbols of another type.

Multiplier function:

Multiplier symbols may appear from a Botbox. Multiplier symbols add their value to the multiplier and then turn into a Wild symbol.

Wild Symbols:

Wild symbols can appear in a drop or from a Botbox.

When opened, a Botbox can release a Hot Wild. This is indicated by a blue swirl effect behind the released Wild symbol. The Hot Wild symbol will then transform a random number of paying symbols into Wilds.

Expand board function:

The expand board function can appear from a Botbox; the function expands the symbol board one position up to a maximum of 7x7.

  • Bonus symbols anywhere on the game board activate the bonus game with 7 free drops.

Unused Botboxes, multiplier value and board size are carried over to the bonus game and kept between free drops in the bonus game.

  • Bonus symbols anywhere on the game board activate the super bonus game with 9 free drops.

The superbonus game starts with the maximum board size of 7

rows and 7 columns and an increase in the multiplier value.

Any bonus symbols appearing during a bonus or super bonus game award an additional free drop.

Prizes are paid at the conclusion of a game round.

The maximum total win in a game round is limited to 10,000 times the bet placed.

A game round ends immediately when the winning limit is reached; then the winnings accumulated up to that point will be paid out.

Bets cannot be changed during a game round. The theoretical payout (RTP) is 94.0%.

If a malfunction occurs, all bets and prizes are void.
