Playing Medusa’s Madness

Medusa’s Madness, developed by Play’n GO, is a cascading video slot played on a 5×5 grid. To achieve wins, connect four or more matching symbols in a cluster that are touching either horizontally or vertically. Symbols must be directly adjacent with no gaps; combinations may start from any position on the grid. Multiple clusters in one round combine their winnings. Only the highest win applies per symbol combination.

• Maximum bet: £5

How to Play

1. Select your desired bet using the plus and minus buttons located at the bottom of the screen. Bets range from £0.10 up to £5 per round.
2. Click START to begin a round. The 5×5 grid will fill with symbols.
3. Clusters of four or more matching, connected symbols trigger a win. All winnings are determined according to the paytable and are paid after the conclusion of a game round.
4. Winning symbols are removed from the grid and new symbols drop from above, potentially creating additional clusters in the same round. The cascading continues until no further winning combinations appear.
5. The bet for bonus features, such as Free Spins, remains the same as the round that triggered them. Bets cannot be changed during an active round.

Features and Special Mechanics

Cluster Wins

Cluster wins are formed from groups of four or more adjacent matching symbols that touch horizontally or vertically. All cluster wins are summed up for each round. Wins from features or bonus rounds are also included in total winnings for the round.

Cascading Symbols

When a win occurs, all winning symbols are cleared, and new ones fall into the empty spaces, allowing for new possible combinations within the same round. The cascades continue until no more wins can be formed.

Eye Marks & Special Wilds

Eye Marks can appear randomly across the grid. To open an Eye Mark, create a win that includes its position. When all Eye Marks are opened during specific features, special rewards may be triggered.

After no further wins can be made and an Eye Mark is opened, two SPECIAL WILDS are added to the grid.

Stone Gateway Charges and Effects

Winning symbols charge the Stone Gateway. As you achieve wins on certain amounts of symbols in a round, specific effects activate:

• After 7 symbols: 2 SPECIAL WILDS added.
• After 14 symbols: 2 SPECIAL WILDS added. If a win is achieved with a SPECIAL WILD, the PETRIFY effect is triggered.
• After 27 symbols: 2 SPECIAL WILDS added. If a win is achieved with a SPECIAL WILD, the GAZE effect is triggered.

If multiple charge levels are reached before a previous effect is played out, only the latest charge effect is activated.

• PETRIFY: Removes a row or column from the winning SPECIAL WILD symbol. Symbols removed in this way charge the Stone Gateway further. If PETRIFY removes another SPECIAL WILD, this effect is also triggered from that symbol.
• GAZE: Randomly selects one regular symbol and removes all its instances from the grid.

Other World Free Round

This special round is triggered after wins on 42 symbols. Players receive one free round, which activates three random Stone Gateway Effects. For every three additional symbols collected beyond the initial 42, another Stone Gateway Effect is added, up to a maximum of seven effects.

During the Other World Free Round:

• A Stone Gateway Effect is activated when no further wins can be made.
• 11 or 12 Eye Marks appear. Each is opened by a win in its location.
• If all Eye Marks are opened, the MEGA WILD Medusa’s head symbol enters the grid, moving down with each cascade until it disappears. Cascades continue while wins occur.

The possible Stone Gateway Effects during this feature are:

• SPECIAL WILDS: 4 SPECIAL WILDS are added to the grid.
• PETRIFY: 4 SPECIAL WILDS are added, and if any are part of a win, the PETRIFY effect takes place.
• GAZE: 4 SPECIAL WILDS are added, and if any are part of a win, the GAZE effect is triggered.

Betting and Game Settings

Select your wager before starting a round. The paytable and game rules provide further payout details. Bets remain fixed during any round in progress, including bonus features. All winnings are calculated and paid when the round is complete.

The RTP is displayed within the game interface.

Unfinished Rounds and Malfunctions

If a game round is interrupted, all game information and bets are preserved until you resume. You may continue an unfinished round from where it left off. Bets unresolved for incomplete games become void after 90 days. Any malfunction causes all plays and payouts for that round to be invalid.
