Phoenix Duelreels Slot Bonuses and Features
DuelReels Feature. When a VS symbol lands and is part of a winning combination, it expands to cover the entire reel, becoming a DuelReel. A duel then occurs between the Phoenix and the Water Dragon, each associated with a multiplier. The multiplier of the winning duelist is applied across the entire reel and affects any winning combinations that include the DuelReel. If multiple DuelReels are part of the same winning combination, their multipliers are added together before being applied to the win. Only one VS symbol can land on a reel at a time.
Resurrection Spins. If the Phoenix loses the duel on at least one DuelReel, a Resurrection Spin re-spin is awarded. During this re-spin, at least one VS symbol is guaranteed to land. This process repeats during re-spins until no DuelReels with losing Phoenixes appear.
Bonus Gamble. Upon entering a bonus game, players can choose to either proceed directly or gamble. In the gamble feature, players are presented with five Phoenix Eggs and can select up to three. Each egg may contain 2 to 10 free spins or a Bonus Upgrade. If a Bonus Upgrade is found, the bonus is immediately upgraded to the Rise of the Phoenix bonus with 10 free spins. You may gamble once per bonus and after a Bonus Upgrade.
Fire and Water Bonus Game. Triggered by landing three FS scatter symbols simultaneously during the base game, this bonus awards 10 free spins. The game keeps the base features with an increased chance of landing more VS symbols. Landing additional FS symbols during the bonus awards extra free spins: two FS symbols grant +2 free spins, and three FS symbols grant +4 free spins.
Rise of the Phoenix Bonus Game. Activated by landing four FS scatter symbols simultaneously during the base game, this bonus also starts with 10 free spins and includes all features of the Fire and Water bonus game. Additionally, it offers enhanced Resurrection Spins, where the number of VS symbols that land during the re-spin equals the number of DuelReels with losing Phoenixes during the triggering spin. Extra free spins can be earned in the same manner as in the Fire and Water bonus game.
