Cygnus 3 

The mysteries of the cosmos are once again taking over the reels with ELK Studios’ sequel slot, Cygnus 3. This visually stunning game shares many similarities with its predecessors, but offers a fresh celestial theme and incorporates enhanced bonus features. 

Like in previous series releases, the slot takes inspiration from the Cygnus constellation, blending an ethereal design with gameplay innovation. Slot symbols include a variety of astronomical animals and the entire grid is positioned within an open-top stadium featuring lots of animated elements, including the shimmering night sky. 

With an RTP of 94% and medium-high volatility, Cygnus 3 provides balanced gameplay and is suitable for both novice and seasoned players. In addition, bet limits should suit most players as they include a range of low, medium, and high values.

Using ELK Studios’ iconic user interface, you can set your preferred stake at the start of a new round by clicking the coins icon. When you’re ready to get started, click the spin button to activate the first drop. 

While most online slots feature spinning reels, symbols simply drop onto and off the grid in Cygnus 3. There are no paylines, so instead, winning combinations are formed when three or more matching standard symbols land on adjacent reels, or columns, as they are referred to in the game. 

To pay out, a winning combination must begin from the leftmost column and continue to the right. On every base game spin, without any bonus feature, the grid features 4,096 ways to win. 

There are 7 payout symbols in the game and the wreath is the most valuable one. Landing between three and five wreaths on adjoining columns pays between 2.5x and 10x. Lion, horse, and eagle symbols, meanwhile, pay a maximum of 1.2x, 0.8x, and 0.4x respectively. 

Cygnus 3 Features 

Cygnus 3’s gameplay is enriched by innovative features that enhance its cosmic theme while delivering plenty of entertaining moments. 

Avalanche Feature 

Whenever a winning combination is formed on the Cygnus 3 grid, the Avalanche Feature is activated. Through this feature, winning symbols pay out before disappearing from the grid, allowing new symbols to take their place. This feature will also expand the grid by one row, adding new symbols and ways to win. 

If the Avalanche Feature leads to another winning combination, the feature will retrigger and the grid will expand with an extra row. In all, the grid can have a maximum of eight rows and 262,144 way to win. 

Cygnus Wheel Bonus 

The Cygnus Wheel Bonus is activated when the Cygnus Wheel symbol reaches the grid’s first column, either following a drop or an avalanche. This celestial wheel begins to spin until it stops to reveal its prize. 

Free drops and base stake multipliers are some of the prizes available on the Cygnus Wheel. Alternatively, it may award one of three fixed jackpots. The Sky Jackpot has a value of 1,000x, the Star Jackpot pays 10,000x, while, as one of the top games at our online casino, the Cygnus Jackpot awards 100,000x. 

Multiplier and Multiplier Wilds 

The Cygnus 3 slot game features regular and multiplier wilds that replace standard symbols to complete or grow winning combinations. Multiplier wilds and multiplier symbols can also boost regular payouts by up to 10x each when they form part of a winning formation. 

If two or more multiplier wilds or multiplier symbols form part of the same combination, their value is added before being applied to the payout.
