The Pots Pay Mechanic — How Scatter Wins Work
Unlike traditional scatter pays that simply multiply your total bet, Pots Pay operates on a tiered fixed-payout system. Each additional pot that lands escalate the reward significantly — seven pots yield 100x, eight yields 500x, and nine covers the full grid for the 2,000x maximum. The pots do not need to be on any specific payline to count.

Bonus Features
Pots Pay — Instant Scatter Wins
The centrepiece of the game. Three or more Pot of Gold symbols landing anywhere on the 5x3 grid trigger an immediate cash payout.
The prize scales with the number of pots visible — from 1x for three pots up to 2,000x for a full grid of nine. No spin wheel, no pick screen. The payout is calculated and paid instantly, keeping the pace sharp.
Free Spins Wheel
Three Free Spins symbols on reels 2, 3, and 4 activate the Free Spins Wheel — a separate prize wheel the player spins to determine how many free games they receive and what win multiplier applies.
Outcomes range from 10 to 30 free spins with a 2x or 3x multiplier applied to all wins during the feature. The Free Spins round can be retriggered an unlimited number of times by landing the same three-scatter combination during bonus play.
Mushroom Wild
The red mushroom substitutes for all standard symbols across the 20 paylines, helping complete incomplete winning combinations.
As a symbol in its own right, five mushrooms on a payline pay 125x your stake — making it the highest-paying regular symbol on the reels. It does not replace the Pot of Gold or Free Spins scatters.
