Penguin Vacation

5-Reel 20-line Slots

The object of Penguin Vacation is to obtain winning symbol combinations by spinning the reels.

To play the game:

  • A wagering denomination (coin value) can be chosen by clicking the Click to Change denomination button in the lower left-hand corner of the screen.
  • Line bets are chosen by clicking Bet per Line. Each click adds a coin to the line bet. When the maximum amount is reached (10 coins of the selected wagering denomination), clicking the button again resets the line bet to one coin.
  • Paylines are chosen by clicking Lines. Each click activates a payline. When all paylines are activated, clicking the button again resets it to one active payline. Paylines can also be activated by using the numbered buttons on either side of the reels. Selecting a high payline includes all the lower ones too. For example, selecting payline 6 also activates paylines 1 through 5. Clicking Bet Max activates all paylines with the maximum bet per line and spins the reels.
  • Total bet per game round = line bet X active paylines. The line bet is the currently selected coin value multiplied by the currently selected number of coins per line.
  • Clicking Spin spins the reels with the current selection of lines and line bets. During the reel spin the Spin button changes into Stop. Clicking Stop ends the spin animation and immediately displays the spin result.
  • Reels can also be spun using the Auto Start function. Clicking + or – above Auto Start selects the successive number of spins to be enabled. Clicking Auto Start spins the reels. The Auto Start button changes into Stop during the Auto Start mode. The Auto Start mode ends when the reels have been spun the number of times determined by the player, or when the player clicks Stop.
  • Wins are calculated according to the paytable. Line win = line bet X corresponding multiplier according to the paytable. Scatter win = total bet X corresponding multiplier according to the paytable. The paytable can be accessed via the Info page.
  • On a given payline, only the highest payline winning combination pays while simultaneous winnings on different paylines are accumulated.
  • In the case of a winning spin, the Win field displays the accumulating winnings. The Win ticker can be stopped by clicking anywhere on the screen to display the total win amount immediately.
  • Payline wins and the total win are also displayed on the strip located at the bottom of the reels or the game window.
  • A win activates the Gamble button which, when clicked, starts the Gamble feature. More information about the Gamble feature can be found below.

Info page:

  • Clicking Info opens the reference screen describing different game components. Clicking the arrow buttons at the lower right-hand corner of the screen enables navigating between the different info screens.
    • The Paytable screen shows all winning combinations. When opened after a winning spin, the winning symbol combinations (number of symbols and bet multiplier) are highlighted and blink.
    • The Fishing Bonus screen describes the symbol combinations necessary to enter the Fishing Bonus round and explains its rules.
    • The Gamble screen describes how to try doubling winnings by gambling with them and describes the doubling-up rules.
  • Clicking Show Paylines on the Paytable page, opens a screen that illustrates all possible payline combinations. Clicking Hide Paylines closes this screen and returns to the Paytable page.
  • Clicking Back exits the Info screen and returns to the game.

Paylines:

  • Active paylines are represented by lines that appear over the reels. Paylines can be activated and their shape displayed by progressively clicking Lines.
  • Only active paylines can register wins.
  • There is a difference between the line bet and the total bet. The line bet shows how much is being bet on a single payline. The total bet shows how much is being bet in total on the game round. Payouts shown in the paytable are multiplied by the line bet.

The Scatter symbol is an exception to these rules. More information about the Scatter symbol can be found below.

About payouts:

  • If a symbol has a winning combination on more than one reel, the winnings are added up.
  • Winning combinations must start from the left most reel, and the symbols have to be consecutive.
  • If two payline winning combinations occur on the same line, the higher of them is paid out. If more than one active payline has a winning combination, the winnings are accumulated.

The Scatter symbol is an exception to these rules. More information about the Scatter symbol can be found below.

Wild Symbol

The Wild symbol in the game is symbol.

The Wild symbol can stand for any other symbol, except Scatter, to make the best possible winning combination. It appears during the main game and the Free Games round. More information about the Free Games can be found here.

The Wild symbol doubles the winnings of a winning combination, whenever it is a part of it.

There is also a separate payout for 2 or more Wilds on an active payline, as seen in the Paytable. This is paid out instead of the regular symbol win if the win amount from Wilds is larger than the win from the regular symbols (by Wild standing in).

The Wild symbol is stacked on all reels, which means that the Wild symbols lay one on top of the other on each of the reels.

Scatter Symbol

The Scatter symbol in the game is the symbol.

Scatter symbols do not have to occur on any particular payline.

If there are 2 or more Scatter symbols in the spin results, the payout earned is multiplied by the total bet and added to payline winnings.

If 3 or more appear on the reels simultaneously, regardless of position, the Fishing Bonus is triggered.

Fishing Bonus

To enter the bonus round, click on Click to Start.

During the bonus round you may pick 2 out of 5 fishing holes. Each hole awards either 7, 10, or 15 additional Free Games, or a Free Games win multiplier of x5 or x8.

After the bonus round has been completed these winnings are added to the initial, which the bonus starts with: 8 Free Games and win multiplier X2. (A free game multiplier means that any win during the Free Games is multiplied by that number.)

At the end of the Fishing Bonus, a result board summarizes the winnings. Your winnings are the sum of Free Games and free game multipliers collected during the Fishing Bonus.

Click Continue to start the Free Games.

If the Fishing Bonus is triggered during the Auto Start mode, it begins after you click on Click to Start. At the end of the Fishing Bonus, clicking Continue starts the Free Games. When all Free Games have been played, clicking Continue on the screen summarizes the feature wins and the Auto Start mode resumes.

Free Games

During the Free Games, the reels are spun automatically using the same number of lines, coin value and line bet as on the spin that won the Free Games feature. After each spin, the win is displayed in the Win field. The Free Games Win field shows the accumulated winnings from the current Free Games.

After all Free Games have been completed, a result board summarizes the winnings. Game Win shows the winnings that were received from the spin that won the Free Games. Feature Win shows the winnings that were received during the Free Games. Total Win shows the accumulated winnings (Game Win and Feature Win added up).

Clicking Continue will return you to the main game. When returning to the main game, clicking anywhere on the screen stops the win ticker and displays the full prize.

If 3 or more Scatter symbols appear anywhere on the reels during Free Games, 15 additional Free Games with the same multiplier are awarded.

Gamble

A win activates the Gamble button which, when clicked, starts the Gamble feature where you can bet the winnings from your last spin to try and increase them.

Your current winnings are shown in the Bank field. You can choose to bet these winnings to double them by clicking Red or Black button. Double To shows the amount that will be placed in the Bank, if you win.

If you do not want to bet, you can click Collect to add the winnings from the last spin to your balance and return to the main game. If you choose to bet, you have to guess whether the next card that is going to be revealed is red or black. If your guess is correct, you win. If your guess is wrong, you lose your bet and the Gamble feature ends.

With every win, you can bet again until the winnings in the Bank are equal to or greater than the Gamble feature limit. The limit is shown on the Info page that describes the Gamble feature.

Click Collect to add your winnings from the Bank to your balance and return to the main game.
