Game Features

In terms of bonus features, Rise of Merlin offers one special symbol – the crystal ball. The crystal ball serves as both the wild symbol, substituting for all other symbols, and the scatter symbol, triggering the free spins bonus round. 

Landing three or more scatter symbols anywhere on the reels will activate eight free spins. During these, a special expanding symbol is randomly chosen.

This can be any symbol from the paytable, but not the scatter. When enough of these symbols land on the reels, they expand to fill all reel positions. If the free spins feature is retriggered, an additional expanding symbol is added to the reels, with a potential maximum of nine expanding symbols out of the 15 reel positions.
