The main mechanic centres on Expanding Sirens. Sirens act as Wild symbols, expand upwards to the top of the grid and can carry multipliers from x2 to x200. If several of these Wilds participate in the same payline win, their multipliers are added together before being applied to the payout.
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 can appear in this mode, remain on the grid for several spins and gradually move upwards.
Down Below Bonus is activated by 4 FS symbols and also begins with 10 Free Spins. Diver Wilds appear in this mode, expanding over an entire reel, receiving a multiplier and carrying 3 oxygen charges. A diver can move to neighbouring reels until all charges have been used.
