Type of play
- Must-hit/abandoned-equity scavenging. You’re looking for machines left with built-up “reel prizes” (the credit amounts shown above each of the 5 reels) that grow when coin symbols land and pay when a Collect lands in that reel.
What to look for (quick scan)
- Add up the five displayed reel prizes relative to your bet size.
- Prefer equity spread across multiple reels, not piled into one.
- Visual cue: the background behind a prize sparkles once that reel’s prize reaches about 10x your bet (useful for fast scanning).
- Remember coins can land in stacks and a Collect can be at the bottom of a stack—don’t miss a “ready” reel just because you see stacked coins.
