Key features of Le Digger
The Cluster Pay mechanism is unique in Le Digger. When a cluster win happens, the symbols for the win disappear, and others fall in their place, giving you another chance to win. The unique factor is the Layers: one layer on the grid behind the winning symbols disappears, and one of the three layers takes its place.
Two of the layers have lower-paying and higher-paying symbols, a Wild Dynamite, and the FS (free spins) scatters. The other layer is Golden Reveals, with special symbols: coins with one of four multipliers attached that can land alongside the regular symbols.
- Bronze Coins: 1x-4x
- Silver Coins: 5x-10x
- Gold Coins: 20x, 30x, 40x, 50x
- Diamond Coins: 100x, 150x, 250x, 500x
When the special symbols are in place, two clover symbols appear, each with multipliers of 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 10x, or 20x. The Green Clover multiplies matching adjacent coins, and the Gold Clover multiplies all coins on the board.
The Wild Dynamite is the wild symbol and substitutes for other symbols. If Smokey appears and throws a dynamite, where it lands on a 1-5 grid affects a 2x2 grid of symbols. They will disappear, with others taking their place, and another layer will disappear as well. If one of the symbols affected by the dynamite affects a Wild Dynamite, a 3x3 grid of symbols and a layer disappear.
There is a Coin Collector that collects coins when they land in Golden Reveals. When there are no more reveals, the coins are multiplied by your stake for the final win.
Bonus game with 2 options
When landing on at least three scatters, you trigger 10 free spins and the Bonus Gamble, where you can choose to play Tomb Service or Gamble. Use the 10 free spins in the Tomb Service, where there is a Blast Bar that will collect coin symbols that disappear with wins or dynamite explosions. The Blast Bar will be active and give higher paying symbols as well as five more free spins by filling it up with:
- 85 Silver Coins
- 100 Gold Coins
- 115 Diamond Coins
If you choose to gamble with the free spins, you have one of four outcomes:
- Two outcomes with a win of 5x, 6x, 7x, 8x, 9x, or 10x
- Four outcomes with a win of 20x, 30x, 40x, or 50x
- One outcome with 100x, 150x, 250x, or 500x
- One outcome triggers the Gold Digger bonus game
Gold Digger bonus
The Gold Digger bonus with 10 free spins is triggered with one Gamble feature and when landing five scatter symbols. The Gold Digger Bonus works as the base game, but Smokey is guaranteed to throw at least one dynamite after every free spin. When making free spins, receive two more when landing two scatters and four when landing three scatters.
