Pragmatic Play has released John Hunter and Galileo’s Secrets, the latest addition to its popular John Hunter series that combines mystery symbols with money re-spins to deliver 5,000 times win potential. The 5 by 3 grid is filled with telescopes, globes and maps in this astronomical adventure, where mystery symbols can cover entire reels, transforming into matching symbols to boost payouts or money symbols to help trigger the re-spin feature.
Six or more money symbols on the grid activate the re-spin feature with three re-spins. Whenever a new money symbol lands, the number of available re-spins resets to three. When no re-spins remain, or the entire grid is filled with money symbols, the value of all cash prizes is collected and paid out. Landing three book scatters triggers the bonus game with eight free spins initially awarded. Before the feature begins, a random symbol is selected as the mystery symbol, determining whether the bonus game begins at the Bronze, Silver, Gold, or Super level. A gamble option is also available for the chance to upgrade to a higher-paying mystery symbol.
During free spins, full mystery symbols always expand to cover the entire reel and additional scatters are collected in a meter. After every four scatters collected, the bonus game level is upgraded, a new mystery symbol is selected at random, and two extra free spins are awarded. Super level free spins can be triggered via upgrades during the feature or by landing at least one super scatter in a bonus-triggering spin in the base game. In Super level free spins, the mystery symbol is always the money symbol, meaning players have an increased chance of hitting the re-spins feature.
John Hunter and Galileo’s Secrets is the latest addition to Pragmatic Play’s award-winning slots portfolio with games like the Aztec Smash and Money Stacks Megaways online slots, or even their new Fortune Roulette and Immersive Roulette Deluxe games. Irina Cornides, Chief Operating Officer at Pragmatic Play, said: “John Hunter is one of Pragmatic Play’s most popular game series. This latest adventure features upgrading mystery symbols that enhance the bonus round, offering wins of up to 5,000 times.”
