Type of play
- Must-hit/left-behind state play based on “coin holders” above each reel.
- When a reel’s coin holder reaches 2 coins, that reel becomes wild for the next 2 spins.
- Key edge: 2x multiplier coins can land on reels 2–4, making the wild reels significantly more valuable than similar games (e.g., Red Silk/Aztec Chief).

- Presence of any 2x coin, especially on reels 2–4 (reel 4 only matters if it has a 2x coin).
