Scatter pays and the cascade chain
On this kind of grid, lines and reel order do not matter. Count the symbols: eight or more of the same kind anywhere among the thirty positions make a win. Once it is paid, those symbols vanish, everything above them drops, and fresh symbols fall in from the top. If the new picture contains another group of eight, that pays too, and the chain continues. A single spin can therefore produce several wins in a row, and most of the game's larger results come from long chains.
The same rule means many spins produce nothing at all, because no group of eight forms at the start. That alternation of empty spins and occasional chains is the rhythm of a high-volatility scatter-pays slot.
Putting 96.75% and 10,000x side by side
A 96.75% return means the design keeps 3.25 of every 100 units wagered over a very long run — one of the higher published figures in this game set. The 10,000x maximum is the largest single-spin result the game allows. The two numbers pull in opposite directions in people's minds: the first is a quiet, certain cost spread over thousands of spins, the second a loud, extremely rare possibility. Only the first describes what happens on average.
Operators can sometimes choose among return settings, so a version may not run at the published figure. The in-game help panel is the reference for any specific version.
