Brand Features
LootLines™
A special pay system where the line itself becomes the prize
LootLines™ is a proprietary Hacksaw Gaming mechanism that completely twists the standard payline win system (e.g., KKK = 100 coins). The goal is not just to complete the line, but to use the line as a 'trigger' to pull prizes directly from a separate 'Cash Board' (Prize Board) located next to the reels.
Brand Features
xBet®
Buying a better probability
xBet® is a unique 'ante bet' feature found in games from developer Nolimit City. This is not just about increasing the bet amount; it's a powerful betting option where the player pays an additional percentage of their base bet in exchange for dramatically increasing the probability of entering the bonus (free spins) on every single spin. The core of this feature is to provide a strategic 'shortcut' for players who want to skip the tedious base game, allowing them to reach the game's highlights more often than a regular spin, but at a lower cost than a 'Nolimit Bonus' (bonus buy).
Brand Features
Collect to Infinity™
To infinite bonus values
Collect to Infinity™ is a proprietary brand feature used in developer Wazdan's 'Hold the Jackpot' slots. The essence of this feature is that a special 'Collector' symbol appears during the base game and remains 'sticky' on the reels, infinitely growing its value until the bonus round is triggered. The core of this feature is to transform the base game from a simple 'waiting' period into an important process of 'growing' the final bonus value in advance, thereby providing a powerful motivation at every moment of the game.
Brand Features
Cash Infinity™
The infinite wait for the bonus
Cash Infinity™ is a proprietary brand feature used in developer Wazdan's 'Hold the Jackpot™' slots. The essence of this feature is a special bonus symbol that, when it lands during the base game, 'sticks' to the reels and does not disappear until the bonus round is triggered. The core of this feature is to act as a powerful 'sticky scatter', alleviating the frustration of "only landing 2 scatters" and sustaining the player's anticipation for the bonus throughout the game.
Brand Features
X-iter™
The mode you want, the moment you want
X-iter™ is a signature 'bonus buy' feature commonly found in games from developer ELK Studios. It goes beyond simply triggering free spins instantly, by providing the player with a menu of 5 different game modes, each with its own risk and return, and allowing them to directly choose and purchase one. The core of this feature is to give the player complete control over "how they want to enjoy the game", rather than the binary choice of "to buy the bonus or not".
Brand Features
CollectR™
No lines, no clusters needed
CollectR™ is an innovative winning determination system independently developed by ELK Studios. This feature completely departs from the traditional concepts of paylines or cluster pays. Instead, wins are paid out through a method where specific symbols acting as 'Collectors' directly move on the reels and collect symbols that match them. The core of this feature is to provide an active and dynamic play experience of watching the collector symbols find their path and move, rather than passively waiting for results on a static reel.
