How Nuwa actually works

Expanding wilds

A wild grows over its whole column

Once it lands the wild stretches over every position in its column, so one symbol becomes a full column of substitutes. Titles usually reserve the behaviour for the free spins round rather than the base game.

Wild

Fills in for ordinary paying symbols

A wild takes the place of most ordinary symbols so a combination that lands one short still resolves. Scatters and bonus symbols are normally outside what it can copy, which is why it lifts everyday payouts but does nothing for the odds of reaching the feature round.

Scatter

Counts from any position on the field

Because the scatter ignores position, it is the one symbol whose odds do not change when the grid shape does. Games that expand the grid during a round therefore usually pay more per spin without triggering the bonus any more often.

Free spins

Rounds that cost nothing from the balance

The trigger is the scatter count, and most games scale the award: three scatters open the shortest round, four or five open longer ones. What the round is worth depends far more on the modifier attached to it than on how many spins it hands out.

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.

Symbol collection

A meter fills with banked symbols

Nominated symbols are put aside in a meter as rounds go by, and hitting the stated mark opens a feature or hands over a prize. Whether the meter survives a closed session is a per title decision.

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 Nuwa

How Nuwa 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.

High

Extended runs with nothing meaningful are the normal state of the game, and most of the published return is carried by the bonus round. That figure describes millions of rounds rather than the session in front of you.

The ceiling recorded in the dataset is 5,000x the stake.

The dataset gives 96.57 percent as the long-run return, averaged over millions of rounds.
