The main mechanic involves Expanding Sirens. Sirens act as Wild symbols, expand upwards towards the top of the grid and can carry multipliers from x2 to x200. If several of these Wilds contribute to one payline, their multipliers are added together before being applied to the win.

Bonus modes

Beast Below has two main bonus modes. Sirens Call Bonus is triggered by 3 FS symbols and awards 10 Free Spins with an increased frequency of sirens. Special pink sirens may appear in this mode, remain on the grid for several spins and gradually move upwards.

Down Below Bonus is triggered by 4 FS symbols and also begins with 10 Free Spins. Diver Wilds appear in this mode, expand across an entire reel, receive a multiplier and have 3 oxygen charges. A diver may move to adjacent reels until all charges have been used.
