How to play Rise of Merlin

- Orbs act as wild and scatter together.
- Three or more orbs start the free spins.
- Expanding symbols boost wins during free spins.
Bonus features
Free spins
3 or more Magical Orbs award 8 free spins plus an orb win; each retrigger of 3+ orbs adds 8 more spins and a new expanding symbol.
Expanding Symbol
before free spins a random symbol is chosen; a high-paying one expands when 2 or more land, a low-paying one when 3 or more land, and it pays on all wins it creates in addition to regular wins.
Retrigger
landing 3 or more orbs during free spins adds 8 spins and another expanding symbol.
During free spins a chosen symbol expands across the reels when enough copies appear, and any win it takes part in is paid on top of the normal line win, so one symbol can cover several lines at once.
RTP and volatility
| RTP version | Return per 100 staked |
|---|---|
| 96.58% | 96.58 |
High volatility — A hit lands roughly once in every few spins, while the top payout is reached far more rarely, so long dry spells sit between paying spins.
