Hold and Respin, or 'Hold & Win', is one of the most popular core bonus game mechanics in modern slots. The essence of this feature, unlike traditional free spins, is to 'Hold' bonus symbols on the reels and 'Respin' the remaining empty spaces to fill up the screen. This system was popularized worldwide through 'Money Train 2's' 'Money Cart Bonus' and is the foundation for numerous developer-specific brand features like Wazdan's 'Hold the Jackpot™' and Playtech's 'Fire Blaze™'.
A Fixed Jackpot, as the name suggests, is a jackpot with a predetermined prize amount. It pays out the same amount regardless of the player's bet size or other factors.
