Fire in the Hole 3

The reel set can expand while the round develops.

The provider describes six reels that can open from a smaller active area to as many as six visible rows. Winning combinations and certain feature events remove symbols and allow replacements to fall into the cleared spaces.

Ice is not just artwork. Blocks can conceal Wilds, xSplit, win multipliers, xHole, Bonus symbols and the Max symbol.

These buried symbols are inactive until the ice is removed by the relevant mechanics. That gives the base game a progression layer inside a single round: exposing an ice block can matter as much as the symbol that initially landed.

Win multipliers hidden in ice can take values including 2×, 3×, 5×, 10×, 20×, 50× and 100× according to the current first-party rules.

xBomb is a Wild that can explode and remove adjacent symbols.

When it explodes: nearby non-Bonus symbols are cleared; the next collapse's win multiplier increases; the removal can expose feature symbols hidden in ice.

An xBomb can therefore do three jobs at once: substitute as a Wild, change the board and improve the multiplier state.

xSplit changes symbol size/value and can alter the number of available win combinations.

In the current rules, an xSplit symbol splits other symbols on its reel, doubling those symbols. Once the split activation resolves, the xSplit symbols themselves become regular symbols.

The important player-facing idea is that xSplit changes the physical/evaluation state of the reel rather than acting like a simple payout multiplier.

xHole removes regular paying symbols from the reels and throws them back onto random positions as split symbols.

Its activation also leaves an empty space that triggers another collapse. Multiple xHole symbols can increase the resulting symbol sizes further.

Wild Mining activates when three to six matching symbols align horizontally or vertically while there is no winning combination, active xHole or active xBomb Wild. It replaces central positions with Wilds, reveals buried features and starts another collapse.

Lucky Wagon Spins are the game's main collection feature.

The current rules describe different starting states: 3 Bonus symbols: 2 rows open; 4 Bonus symbols: 3 rows open; 5 Bonus symbols: 4 rows open; 6 Bonus symbols: 4 rows open plus a guaranteed Persistent Dwarf on the first spin.

The feature starts with 3 spins. Landing a new coin resets the counter to 3.

Coins sit below a row of enhancers. When a coin lands under an enhancer, that enhancer affects the coin or board state.

The feature can expose several enhancer types:

Coin values set or add value; Multipliers increase the relevant coin values; Dynamite can remove ice, double coins, activate chests or affect persistent feature symbols; Persistent Dynamite continues dropping dynamite on later spins; Persistent Dwarf repeatedly collects values at its position; Evil Dwarf triggers a Golden Spin that reactivates coins; xHole can trigger Frozen Wagon Spins.

When xHole activates in Lucky Wagon Spins, it can trigger 3 Frozen Wagon Spins.

During this sub-feature the enhancer row is restricted to coin values, and existing coins collect those enhancer values. After the three Frozen Wagon Spins, Lucky Wagon Spins resume and the main spin counter resets to 3.

The base game can offer a gamble after a win of at least 5× the base bet.

The gamble can exchange the current win for a chance to enter a higher Lucky Wagon Spins level. A player can collect rather than continue.

Adjacent reel combinations are evaluated by the active board.
