Dead Man’s Gold Features

Increasing Ways to Win

Each additional symbol drop will add a row of symbols, up to a maximum of 8 rows, and 262,144 ways to win. The number of ways to win increases as the number of rows increases. All drops in normal mode start with 4 rows and 4,096 ways to win.

Big Symbols

All regular paying symbols in the game have 4 different sizes: Standard 1×1, Super 2×2, Mega 3×3, and Epic 4×4. When counting Big Symbols, they are considered to consist of the number of 1×1 symbols they cover. For example, a Super 2×2 symbol counts as 4 Standard 1×1 symbols. Wild symbols are available in 3 sizes: Standard 1×1, Super 2×2, and Mega 3×3.

If there is a space below a Big Symbol, it is filled with 1×1 symbols of the same type as the Big Symbol until a stable horizontal resting state is reached. When a Bottomless Chest symbol is located under a Big Symbol, and there is a space, the Bottomless Chest fills it, potentially pushing the Big Symbol upwards. Treasure Target and Multiplier Treasure Target symbols can appear in different sizes, but when they are hit by the Pirate’s Cannons, they count as one regardless of size.

Treasure Target & Multiplier Treasure Target

The Treasure Target and Multiplier Treasure Target symbols count as one symbol regardless of their size when fired upon by the Pirate’s Cannons. The Pirate’s Cannons start firing immediately at Treasure Targets in view when there is at least one cannonball shot collected, and all symbols have landed. Each cannonball shot is consumed and removed when fired. The Pirate’s Cannons fire from left to right and aim for the largest symbol if there are multiple ones in the same column. Any additional symbols drop down from above to fill the empty spaces. The Pirate’s Cannons keep firing as long as there are cannonball shots left and there are still Treasure Targets in view.

When Treasure Target symbols are shot by the Pirate’s Cannons, they reveal the Wild symbols hidden behind them and destroy non-winning symbols around themselves. However, adjacent Treasure Targets, Bottomless Chests, and Bonus symbols are not affected. When Multiplier Treasure Target symbols are shot by the Pirate’s Cannons, they increase the persistent global Multiplier and reveal the Wild symbols hidden behind them.

Bottomless Chest

The Bottomless Chest is a special blocking symbol that can appear at any time during gameplay. However, when a space appears in the column where the Bottomless Chest is located, it opens up and releases High-Value, Wild, and Cannonball symbols to fill up the space. These symbols will continue to drop down until the column is filled up to its maximum height.

Free Drops

Landing 3 or more Bonus symbols triggers the Bonus Mode with Free Drops. The number of Free Drops awarded depends on the number of Bonus symbols landed: 3, 4, 5, or 6 Bonus symbols award 10, 15, 20, or 25 Free Drops, respectively. The collected Cannonballs and active global Multiplier are carried over from the base game to Bonus Mode. Treasure Targets and Multiplier Treasure Targets persist throughout the feature until they are part of a win, while the Bottomless Chest remains persistent throughout the whole Bonus Game.

Landing 3 or more Bonus symbols during the Bonus Game award additional Free Drops. The number of additional Free Drops is determined in the same way as when the Bonus Game was initially triggered.
