Introduction
Place your bet, wait for the symbols to drop and watch out for that winning combination! But wait a minute, it doesn't end there. Symbols keep dropping until you stop winning and don't forget that jackpot prizes could be coming your way!
Note:
- Your winnings will be credited to your account immediately.
- You will lose your stake amount if you have insufficient winning symbols.
Starting the game
When you have selected a stake it is time to play. To start Hockey Reactors click the BET button. Symbols will then start dropping.
Auto Play
Auto play is a convenient way to play without having to click the Bet button to start each game. Each play starts automatically until the number of spins set expiries or you decide to stop auto play.
To activate auto play, click the Auto Play button and select the number of plays. Auto plays will commence and the number of auto plays counts down and plays out. Click the same Auto Play button to stop auto play. Auto play is not available in jurisdictions where it is not permitted.
How do you win?
When the symbol drop is complete, several things may happen.
To win you must match five, or more, consecutive symbols connected either horizontally or vertically. Five, or more, consecutive symbols connected either horizontally or vertically is known as a cluster. It is possible to get more than one cluster in a single game and payouts increase depending on the number of matching symbols you have. Also, the symbols have different payout values.
When the symbol drop stops, any wins will react (that is, disappear). After a short period all symbols associated with a win will disappear, allowing symbols above to fall into the vacant spaces, potentially creating more wins from a single play.
For example:
![]() |
![]() |
![]() |
![]() |
If more wins occur as a result of newly descended symbols, the above sequence is repeated. This process continues until your winning streak ends.
Any winnings are displayed on the right-hand side of the game window, above the BET button. Win amounts will be added automatically to your balance.
