How it plays

Gonzo's Quest is a slot from NetEnt. Winning symbols explode and the emptied spaces are filled by new symbols falling down the screen, and each such Avalanche raises the win multiplier. This page covers only the rules and figures that are officially published and offers no way to win.

When a winning combination forms on a payline, the icons explode and new symbols cascade into their place.

Each Avalanche raises the win multiplier up to a maximum, and a spin without a win resets that progress.

Wilds substitute for paying symbols and may also stand in for the scatters that lead to the Free Fall bonus round, where the multiplier can climb higher than in the main game.

Every round is random and earlier results have no effect on the next one. This site gives no betting advice.

RTP is a theoretical value published officially. It describes the average return over the long run and many rounds, and says nothing about a single round or a short period. The version actually offered depends on the operator's settings, and the information in the game takes precedence. Items the official page does not publish are not listed in this table and are not guessed. Official page
