Sticky Wilds
Triggered when a reel achieves 9 symbols, the Mini-Link Bonus springs to life, unleashing 3 respins with the current grid intact, while introducing the elusive link symbol to the reels. Throughout these respins, only link symbols bestow rewards, rendering way prizes dormant (Symbol pays as depicted in the paytable remain unclaimed). Growth remains stagnant during this phase, with link symbols carrying the potential for random multipliers of x1, x2, x3, x5, x7, or x10. The Mini-Link bonus tantalizes with the chance of a maximum prize of x231.
Upon reaching 9 symbols, the Sticky Stacked Wilds Bonus awaits. Nine Wild symbols materialize upon the reel, clinging steadfastly for the subsequent 6 spins. With each spin's conclusion, the reel shrinks by one symbol until it dwindles to a size of 3, signaling the end of the bonus.
Achieving a 9-symbol reel heralds the activation of the Free Spins Bonus, with an additional opportunity arising if 3 or more bonus symbols grace the reels. Within the Free Spins realm, players may be bestowed with the Big and Small Prizes Fortune Wheel Bonus, Sticky Stacked Wilds Bonus, or Instant Prize feature upon reaching the 9-symbol reel size. The Free Spins Bonus imposes no restrictions on the number of spins, with each bonus bestowed bearing the potential to conclude the feature.
Commencing with a 5x4x3x3x4x5 reel, players possess the ability to expand it to a final configuration of 9x9x9x9x9x9. A special growing symbol facilitates this expansion, augmenting the reel by 1-3 symbols. Each reel expands independently, resetting to 3 upon reaching 9 symbols, triggering a random bonus feature in the process.

About Sticky Wilds Games
Sticky Wilds is a casino game mechanic that is often found in online slot machines and video slot games. It is a variation of the traditional wild symbol, where wild symbols "stick" to the reels for a certain number of spins, increasing the chances of hitting winning combinations.
When a player hits a Sticky Wild symbol, it will remain in place on the reels for a certain number of spins, often determined by the game or during a bonus round. This allows for more opportunities to hit winning combinations as the Sticky Wild can substitute for other symbols on the reels. Some games also have multipliers or other bonuses that are associated with the Sticky Wilds, making them even more valuable.
This game mechanic can be a great way to increase the chances of hitting winning combinations and adding an extra layer of excitement to the game. It is a popular feature in online slot games and has been used by many game providers. Some of the most popular slot games with Sticky Wilds feature are "Dead or Alive" by NetEnt, and "Wild Duel" by Peter & Sons.
