The Shimmering Woods

In Play’n GO's video slot, The Shimmering Woods, players engage with five reels that typically feature 3 rows but can expand to 6 rows under specific conditions. Set in a magical forest adorned with sparkling gems and crystals, the game merges elements of fantasy with jewel-themed visuals. A key aspect of the gameplay is the Splitting Symbol mechanic, where a regular symbol or wild is randomly chosen before each spin; when this symbol appears, it divides into two. This feature can increase the number of winning combinations from the usual 243 to as many as 7,776 ways. The game also incorporates cascading wins, which means that winning symbols disappear and are replaced, allowing for multiple wins within a single spin. Each cascade raises a Win Multiplier by one, which resets at the beginning of each paid spin. Wild symbols can replace regular symbols, except for scatters, aiding in the creation of wins and contributing to the splitting feature if selected. The scatter symbol, depicted as a purple crystal, triggers the Free Spins round when three are landed on reels 1, 3, and 5. The number of Splitting Symbols during Free Spins is determined by the number of scatters collected, with opportunities for retriggers available by landing more scatters in the bonus. Throughout Free Spins, the symbols above the reels are displayed, and any active Splitting Symbol continues to split upon landing. The multiplier feature remains active during Free Spins, although it resets between spins, making this round particularly lucrative as many features align.
