See the Soul Queen’s base payouts: 10/J/9 pay X2, X5, and X50; K/Q pay X5, X20, and X100; A pay X5, X40, and X100; perfumes pay X5, X50, and X125; swans/lockets pay X5, X75, and X200; flowers pay X5, X100, and X200; diamonds pay X5, X100, and X300; and “Soul Queen” pay X1, X10, and X100.

3+ logos prompt eight free games; they are called “soul” spins because, before they begin, all reels (except reel three) first draw several sticky soul symbols. After a free game draws symbols, all locked souls reveal one-of-a-kind, thereby boosting the winning chances. The revealed symbols exclude the wild; also, excludes the “Soul Queen” in extra free games.

The queen is drawn in the middle reel in the soul spins whose substituted wins include these respective win multipliers—displayed along the right. The diamonds/flowers wins are: X2 in 1-4 free games; X3 in 5-7 free games; and X10 in 9-13 free games.

The lockets/swans/perfumes wins are: X2 in 1-3 free games; X5 in 4-5 free games; X8 in 6-8 free games; and X10 in 9-13 free games. The A/K/Q/10/J/9 wins are: are X2 in 1-4 free games; X3 in 5-6 free games; X5 in 7-8 free games; and X10 in 9-13 free games.

The sticky souls may unveil logos that then offer +5 free games—called “Super Feature” spins; with sticky souls too—whose (combinations): “Soul Queen” pays X1; A/K/Q/10/J/9 pay X1, X2, and X5; perfumes pay X1, X2, and X8; swans/lockets pay X1, X2, and X10; flowers pay X1, X2, and X15; and diamonds pay X1, X2, and X20.

If coinciding with a drawn “Quad Shot Bonus” (comparatively higher likelihood for huge bets), five: substituted A/K/Q/10/J/9 combinations offer between $6.00 and $60000.00 bet-dependent mini jackpots; Substituted diamonds/flowers/swans/lockets/perfumes’ combinations offer between $10.00 and $100000.00 minor jackpots; unsubstituted A/K/Q/10/J/9 combinations offer between $50.00 and $500000.00 maxi jackpots; and unsubstituted diamonds/flowers/swans/lockets/perfumes’ combinations offer between $100.00 and $1000000.00 major jackpots.

The HTML5 Soul Queen software has: mobile/desktop versions; and 10/25/50/75/100 auto spins, with $1.00 to $300000.00 loss limits and $10040.00 to $3.012 million single win limits.
