How to play
Stake limits are set to suit mostly casual gamers and low rollers with minimums of 0.25 and maximums of 50 credits per spin. Symbols of a soldier’s helmet, wings, building tools, vases, and playing cards populate the reels.
The soldier helmet is the most valuable among the others paying 200x the stake when you match 5 in the combo. With 4 on the reels, you also get a decent reward of 40x the stake. The playing cards, though offering low pays, will reward nicely than many slots throwing in 8x the stake for 5 symbols matched on a Payline.
