1. wild;
2. scatter;
3. bonus symbol;
4. gladiator.

The image’s prize option is expansion. When the princess appears in the first cell on the second, third or fourth reel, she throws rose petals. Those, reaching the images below, turn them into “wild” symbols with an additional multiplier of x2. The action of the “wild” characters does not apply to scatter, bonus image and is not involved in combinations that trigger the prize game.

Scatter – Colosseum. A feature of this symbol is that it plays without reference to the paylines and reels. Image, falling out in any three, four or five cells on the playing field, brings a reward. During the game at the highest bet – 300, 1,500 and 3,750 credits, respectively. Gate is a bonus symbol. Appearing in three arbitrary positions, the image activates an instant bonus. Clicking on any of the three images, the user receives a reward in credits. The size of the prize depends on the total bet.

The entire reel is covered with a marble slab, which the gladiator smashes, revealing three “wild” symbols. These images complete prize combinations, but do not bring an additional multiplier and do not interact with other bonus symbols.

Bonus Game

Such a combination consists of an image of a gladiator, the Colosseum and the villain. Pictures should be located on the first, second or third payline. Bonus mini-game contains elements of video games in the genre of “turn-based fighting” and consists of several levels. At each stage, the gladiator fights with the enemy, earning points for each strike or evasion of the enemy. After defeating one enemy, the hero moves on to the next level and fights another. The amount of reward in the bonus game depends on the total bet on the spin.
