Sunny Coin: Hold the Spin Bonus Features
 

Respins Feature

Six or more sunny coins trigger the respins feature. The six or more coins will hold for the duration of the feature while the remainder of the positions on the reels will go blank. The feature begins with three respins. If one or more sunny coins lands in any of the blank positions during the three respins, the respin value will be reset to three. The feature will continue until three consecutive respins pass without any additional sunny coins or until all 15 positions are filled. 

Each of the sunny coins will have a random value, which may also include the bronze, silver and gold jackpot prize. At the end of the feature, all values are added together and awarded, including any values attached to the jackpot prizes. If all 15 positions are filled, the platinum jackpot prize is awarded.

Free Spins

Three or more pyramid scatters will trigger the free spins. There are three levels of free spins:

Level 1 = 8 free spins using higher-tier symbols, wild and sunny coins 
Level 2 = 15 free spins using all symbols, including the wild and sunny coins
Level 3 = 8 free spins using all symbols and where a random number of symbols will turn into wilds after a spin has finished.

Free spins cannot be retriggered. In order to progress from level one to level two, free spins must be triggered a second time during the base game. After playing free spins at level three, a fourth retrigger during the base game will be played at level one again. 

The Sunny Coin respins feature can be triggered during the free spins bonus. 

You have the option to purchase free spins using credits in your balance.

Gamble Option

Any win received during the base game and the total win awarded during any bonus round can be gambled with a simple 50/50 prediction game. If the colour of the symbol (red or blue) is predicted correctly, the winnings are doubled and there is a chance to gamble again. If the prediction is incorrect, the winnings are lost. The number of correct predictions is capped at five. 

Sunny Coin: Hold the Spin Review

As a slot, Sunny Coin: Hold the Spin offers nothing new. Like most Gamzix slot demo games it sticks to the tried and tested: its theme, layout and bonus games have all been done before. However, the combination of features, with the additional option of buying free spins and a gamble feature, keeps the game interactive, which compensates a little. If you're looking for something a little different from our demo slots, then Yggdrasil Gaming's Sunny Shores slot offers a 5x5 layout, both ways wins and expanding wilds is a good alternative.
