Type of play
- Must-hit/accumulation state play: you’re buying into a partially completed “diamond collection” meter that improves the Free Spins bonus.
What to look for
- Game/theme: Diamond Collector (Wolfpack or Elite 7’s). Same strategy for both.
- Current diamond count: shown on the bet pad for each bet level/denomination.
- You’re hunting machines already built up with diamonds (the meter is the edge).
When to play
- Primary trigger: Play when the meter shows 12+ diamonds collected (on the bet pad).
- Reason: Bonus triggers at 15 diamonds, and the bonus quality scales up with diamonds collected. 12 is a conservative entry point unless you know the machine is on a higher RTP setting.
