What runs above is 5 Lions Megaways 2 on the balance the game hands out. Nothing is wagered either way.
A demo answers what the game does, not what it costs. For 5 Lions Megaways 2 with a real balance, the link below goes to an online casino.

Rounds that cost nothing from the balance
Nothing leaves the balance while the round runs, and the reels almost always behave differently from the base game: extra wilds, a rising multiplier or a trimmed symbol set. How many rounds are handed over usually depends on how many scatters landed to open it.
Fills in for ordinary paying symbols
Restrictions on the wild matter more than its presence. A wild barred from the first reel, or from the bonus round, or from the top symbol, changes the maths considerably while the feature list still reads the same as everyone else.
Counts from any position on the field
The number of scatters needed is a design lever rather than a detail. Two scatters plus a retrigger rule produces a very different session shape from a flat requirement of four, even when the published return figure is identical.
Scales the payout it is attached to
Multipliers that reset every spin and multipliers that carry through a round are two different games wearing the same word. The carried kind is what turns a long bonus round into the outlier session players remember, and it is also why such rounds are rare.
Paid symbols drop out and are replaced
Symbols that have just paid are taken off the field and replacements fall into the holes, so one round can resolve several times over. The chain runs until nothing new forms, and in many titles a counter climbs one step with every link in that chain.
The number of routes is redrawn each round
How many symbols fit on each column is decided again every round, so the number of winning routes never settles, with 117,649 the usual ceiling. Payouts read from the leftmost column across neighbouring ones, and no payline map exists.
Buying straight into the feature round
Instead of waiting for scatters, a fixed multiple of the stake buys entry to the feature round outright, most often somewhere between 60x and 100x. Several regulated markets restrict or forbid the option, so whether the button exists at all depends on where the game is loaded.
Larger stake against a faster trigger
Switching the option on lifts the stake by a stated share, most often a quarter, and in return the feature round comes up more often. What it moves is how frequently the trigger arrives; what the round pays once it starts is unchanged.
Progress opens better settings
Meeting the stated conditions moves the game up a level, and each level brings stronger modifiers, a higher counter or extra positions. Progress normally lives inside one feature round and does not survive past it.
Every round redraws how many symbols fit on each reel, so the number of winning combinations is recalculated as the game runs rather than fixed in advance. Most licensed builds top out at 117,649 combinations, and payouts still read from the leftmost reel across neighbouring ones.
6 reels that vary between 2 and 8 rows.
Rare large payouts dominate the spread and the base game adds very little to it. Finishing a session below the starting balance is the ordinary consequence of that shape, not evidence of a bad run.
The ceiling recorded in the dataset is 8,000x the stake.
