Understanding Treasures of Troy and White Orchid Video Games
from web site
When IGT first released Treasures of Troy and White Orchid, players, and most slot attendants, didn't understand the 1,024 way MultiWay feature. I have to admit, I found that I couldn't explain it to the slot attendants myself. I found myself researching the game feature so I could explain it. Although it appears to be just a regular video game with 40 lines, The Treasures of Troy game is actually two games in one.
First, it is a 40 line 20 reel game, as opposed to the 5 reels that most of our games have. It looks like a 5 reel game at first glance, but if you look closer you will see that there are 5 columns (not reels) of 4 rows. Each of these "picture windows" is a separate reel. Watch the way the game plays and you'll see each window stopping on its own instead of an entire column stopping together as most reel games do.
Second, in addition to being a 40 line game, it also has an option to buy into a MultiWay feature similar to Aristocrat's Reel Power games giving players an additional 1,024 ways to win when they double their wager. Here's how that feature works:
When you wager the additional amount (40 x your line bet) to enter the MultiWay feature, in addition to being able to win based on payable combinations on each of the 40 lines, you can now win based on symbols on each column. You must get 4 or 5 of the same symbol in each column on an active payline to trigger a win, however, if you get more than one of the winning symbols in any of the 4 or 5 columns, your win is multiplied.
