Peek and Pounce

Peek & Pounce is a 5-reel, 4-row adventure slot where the cunning Mr. Pounce hunts the brave Pip and his gang of mischievous mice. As the reels spin, Pip's friends peek out from their hiding places, daring the resourceful cat to make the first move. When Mr. Pounce symbols fall beneath a peeking mouse, the Wild Chase is triggered: the cat leaps up to snatch his prey, transforming the reel into Wild symbols. Each catch leaves a multiplier of up to 500x, and with multiple chases, the Wild reels stack up and the multipliers combine for explosive wins. The chase reaches new heights in the Catch the Cheese Bonus, where more members of Pip's gang appear and Mr. Pounce attacks more frequently, filling the reels with more Wild symbols and offering truly cheesy rewards.

The maximum win in this game is 10,000 times your stake and can be achieved in all game modes.

FUNCTIONS

WILD CHASE

During each rotation, mice will randomly peek out from the holes located above the rollers. Between two and five mice will be visible on each rotation.

If Mr. Pounce lands on a reel with a visible mouse above it, the Wild Chase begins and Mr. Pounce jumps up if, after the expansion, there is at least one winning combination on the reels. Only one Mr. Pounce can land per reel.

Mr. Pounce leaps upwards to catch the mouse, turning all symbols on that reel from its position to the top into Wild symbols. Mr. Pounce symbols that land on the top row will also leap upwards to catch the mouse.

Each mouse caught grants a random multiplier of 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 7x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x, 75x, 100x, 200x or 500x.

If multiple cats catch mice during the same turn, each Wild Chase occurs one after the other, from left to right.

Once all Wild Chases are completed, all awarded multipliers are added together and applied to the total winnings for that spin. After winnings are awarded, the multiplier meter resets for the next round.

CATCH THE CHEESE BONUS

Get 3 or more Scatter symbols to trigger the bonus game!

When 3, 4 or 5 Scatter symbols appear in the base game, they award 10, 15 or 20 free spins respectively.

The bonus game retains the same mechanics as the base game, with the following improvement.

During the bonus game, Mr. Pounce will jump up to catch a mouse even if the spin doesn't result in a winning combination. Any multiplier awarded by a caught mouse is added to the multiplier meter and remains active for the entire duration of the bonus.

If another mouse is caught on any reel, its multiplier is added to the current meter value, improving the total multiplier.

At the end of each spin, the multiplier shown on the meter is applied to the total gain for that spin.

SPECIAL SYMBOLS

The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols in the paytable.

Scatter symbols can appear on all reels only during the base game.

The Scatter symbol acts as an FS symbol.
