The main mechanic is tied to the Quetzalcoatl Emblem symbol. It works as both Wild and Scatter, substitutes for regular symbols and triggers the bonus game when three or more such symbols land. In the base mode, the slot remains a clear 5-reel game, while the main potential is revealed during Free Spins.
Bonus Mode
Bonus Game is triggered by Scatter symbols and starts with 10 free spins. The bonus introduces Wild Collect: the player collects green Wild symbols to fill a meter and advance to the next levels.
Once the meter is filled, a Symbol Upgrade occurs — a low-paying symbol is upgraded to a more valuable one. Each completed level adds more free spins. The bonus section includes 5 levels in total, and if all of them are completed, medium-value symbols can turn into the highest-value Quetzalcoatl symbol.
