How Lantern Luck actually works

Wild

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.

Respins

Part of the field spins once more

What is already on the field stays where it is while only the empty positions turn again, giving a near miss a second chance to resolve. Some titles hand out the respin for a combination that fell one symbol short, others for a specific symbol landing.

Sticky wilds

Wilds remain for the rest of the round

Rather than clearing when the field turns again, the wild holds its position until the round is over. Inside a free spins round that means the number of substitutes on screen only grows as the round runs down.

Multiplier

Scales the payout it is attached to

Where the multiplier sits in the chain decides everything about it. One that applies to a single symbol changes a small win into a slightly larger one; one that applies to the whole screen after a cascade is the mechanism behind the numbers in the maximum win line.

Jackpot

A prize pool outside the paytable

The jackpot is not part of the paytable and has a trigger of its own, commonly a symbol collection or a wheel. A fixed one always pays the same figure, while a progressive one grows out of a slice of every stake played until it is claimed.

Bonus rounds in Lantern Luck

How Lantern Luck pays

Each payout pattern is drawn in advance and printed in the paytable, and a symbol earns nothing unless it sits on one of those patterns. Three identical symbols can be visible on screen and still be worth nothing because one of them landed a row above the line.

5 reels of 3 rows, 15 positions in total.

Low

Small payouts come often enough to hold the balance near its starting point through long stretches of play. What is given up in return is the top of the paytable, which has little bearing on how an ordinary session unfolds.

The ceiling recorded in the dataset is 702x the stake.

The dataset gives 96.73 percent as the long-run return, averaged over millions of rounds.
