Rules

• The player has no control over the symbols and where they land as they are randomly determined by the game. The computer plays the game on behalf of the player.
• When the PLAY button is clicked the game begins and the symbols start dropping from top of the screen. If there is any win, all of the symbols involved in the respective winning combination will disappear; allowing all symbols above them to descend into the vacant spaces and at the same time allowing new random symbols to drop from the top of the game screen, potentially creating more wins from a single play.
• If more wins are created from the descending symbols and the new symbols that drop from the top, the process repeats itself; the winning symbols disappear allowing the symbols above to descend into the spaces created and at the same time allowing new random symbols to drop from the top.
• This process continues until no more wins are possible.
• Payout is calculated by multiplying the bet amount against the respective winning multiplier/odds.

• Max payout for each cluster is limited to $500,000 (total win of a game can go beyond this value).

  Example 1:
  Bet is $1,000.
  As per the paytable, 15 Goldies pays 75,000 * bet = 75,000 * $1,000 = $75,000,000.
  But since max payout for each cluster is limited to $500,000, here the payout will be $500,000.

  Example 2:
  Bet is $1,000.
  As per the paytable,
  15 Goldies pays 75,000 * bet = 75,000 * $1,000 = $75,000,000.
  10 Zoids pays 5,000 * bet = 5,000 * $1,000 = $5,000,000.
  Total payout for a cluster of 15 Goldies and a cluster of 10 Zoids = $500,000 + $500,000 = $1,000,000.

• 5 or more diagonally connected matching symbols do not form a win and are not paid.
• A 'Cluster' is 5 or more vertically and/or horizontally consecutive connected matching symbols. It is possible to get more than one cluster in a single game.
• When there is more than one winning combination (more than 1 cluster), these winning combinations are paid and all respective winning symbols disappear before any symbols descend into the vacant spaces created and new random symbols drop from the top of the game screen.
• Options: Clicking on options button present on the top centre of the screen provides a mechanism to control the sound and graphic quality.
• Sound: Clicking on Sound image on the top centre of the game screen will turn off the sound and on deselecting it will turn on the sound. This can also be turned on and off by selecting and deselecting the sound control present in the Options menu.
• Quality: The quality controller present in the Options menu is used to toggle the graphic quality of the game to Low/High/Medium. If the player is experiencing a slowdown during play they should select this option to increase game speed at the cost of image quality.
