Cluster Pays
Honey Rush 100 is a grid slot played on a hexagonal grid. Symbols drop into the grid to create wins. 5 or more adjacently connected symbols in a cluster award a win. Only the highest win in the cluster is paid. Winning symbols are removed. New symbols fall down to fill the gaps. Multiple clusters of the same symbol that are not connected are paid as separate clusters.
Form clusters of matching sweet fruits, ranging from cherries and plums to strawberries and watermelons, to unlock victories and set off a cascade of fresh fruits tumbling from the top of the board. With each spin, 12 to 19 positions are randomly highlighted, and if a bee symbol lands on one of these marked spots, it transforms all other highlighted spots into wilds, paving the way for additional wins.
During the bonus round, seven free spins are granted, with the potential for up to three bees to appear on each spin. Once a bee activates a highlighted spot, turning it wild, these wilds persist throughout subsequent spins, increasing the availability of wild positions and enhancing the chances of winning big.
During cascades, there's a chance that Size upgrades and/or Mult upgrades may land in the vacant spaces. The Mult upgrade symbol becomes available only after the first Size upgrade has appeared, and it's noteworthy that both upgrades can occur in the same cascade. Size upgrades commence at 2x2 and increment in height and width with each subsequent upgrade, reaching a maximum of 6x6. Meanwhile, Mult upgrades start at 1x and ascend to 10x.
The game accumulates and saves all upgrades, initiating a tumble to clear them away. This process triggers another cascade, introducing the potential for additional upgrades. Once there are no upgrades or clustered symbols on the screen, the Egg emerges if a size upgrade has occurred. A square with the collected size randomly appears on the window, replacing all symbols within with a single random regular symbol. The Egg, now on the screen, pays out as a regular symbol cluster, with the applied multiplier factored into any wins. It can connect with other symbols on the screen, contributing to the excitement. The game continues to tumble and can land extra upgrades, causing the Egg to reappear and perpetuating the cycle.
Achieving 4, 5, or 6 Scatters rewards 10, 15, or 20 Free Games, respectively. Landing 3 or more Scatters during Free Games triggers an additional +5 Free Games. The rules remain consistent during Free Games, except the initial spin starts from a 2x2 configuration, and the upgrades persist to the next spin without resetting. Each spin introduces a new symbol and space, maintaining an engaging and dynamic gameplay experience.
Clusters can be made in any shape on the grid, all you need is for each symbol to be adjacent to at least one other symbol to be able to form part of the cluster, so there’s plenty of opportunities to win. Once a cluster is formed, it will disappear making way for new symbols to drop onto the grid with a chance of creating new cluster; with the leftover symbols.
Description
About Cluster Pays Games
Cluster Pays is a casino game mechanic that is often found in online slot machines and video slot games. It is a variation of the traditional payline system, where players need to match symbols in a specific pattern to win. Instead, in Cluster Pays games, winning combinations are formed by matching a certain number of symbols that are adjacent to each other in a cluster, regardless of their position on the reels.
The Cluster Pays system typically requires players to match at least 9 symbols in a cluster, but the specific number can vary depending on the game. The more symbols that are matched in a cluster, the higher the payout will be. Some games also have special symbols, such as wilds or multipliers, that can be included in the cluster to increase the payout.
This game mechanic can add an extra layer of excitement to the game by introducing a new way to form winning combinations. It also allows for more flexibility in terms of where the symbols can appear on the reels, which can make it easier for players to hit winning clusters. Some popular slot games that feature Cluster Pays include "Reactoonz" by Play'n GO, "Reel Rush" by NetEnt, "Cluster Tumble" by Relax Gaming, and "Jammin' Jars" by Push Gaming.
