About the 3 Lucky Hippos Game

This is a 5 reel 3 row to 5 reel 6 row video slot game.

The objective of the game is to spin the reels so the symbols land in different combinations.

Winning combinations are highlighted on the reels and a payout is awarded.

The top row is a single reel which is horizontally oriented.

Bet Rules

Each spin played costs a total bet amount.

The total bet is based on the initial bet placed, multiplied by the cost of the ways played.

The initial bet is the current total bet divided by the way cost of 20.

Way Rules

This game includes 243 ways and can go up to the maximum number of 7776 ways.

A way is a pattern of adjacent symbol positions that runs across the reels.

A win is awarded when matching symbols land adjacent to each other in this pattern.

Way wins run from left to right, starting from the first slot reel.

Payout Rules

Way win payouts are based on the initial bet placed.

The payout value is based on the winning combination formed.

The total payout is the sum of all way wins resulting from a spin.

Only the highest winning combination is awarded per symbol combination.

The win up to value displayed is rounded down, and is approximately the highest possible win achievable on a single spin.

The Paytable displays the payout for each symbol combination based on the current bet.

Split Symbols

Split symbols land on the top row.
