TIPS AND TRICKS

2nd Chance Respin:
Any 2, 3 or 4 of a kind Patch, Eagle, Gauge, Medal or Ring (without Pilot substituting) triggers a second chance respin with the initial win held. Respins cannot be retriggered during the respin.

Feature:
Any win with Pilot substituting triggers 5 feature games.

During the feature games, 1 or more Jet(s) appearing anywhere on the screen repeat the initial feature win. The win is repeated by the number of Jets on the screen. Respins can be won during the feature games, however features cannot be retriggered.

As the feature games are paid games, the player can change the amount of lines played and adjust their bet multiplier, however the bet multiplier cannot be higher than the initial feature trigger. The gamble feature is disabled during the feature games.
