Charming Hot Zone
2 Symbol places on the middle of reel 3 highlighted by a special framed Hot Zone.
Princess Kiss feature is awarded, when the Princess Wild symbol lands inside the Hot Zone.
Free Spins feature is awarded, when 1 Heart Scatter lands inside the Hot Zone.
Hot Zone is present during both base game and Free Spins.
Princess Kiss
Princess Wild in the hot zone can either upgrade symbols by turning a random frog symbol into its corresponding Prince symbol, or turn Prince symbols into Wild/Wild Multiplier symbols.
Upgrades are random, not all of the kissed symbols are guaranteed to be upgraded.
Multipliers are added together.
Frog Symbol Upgrades
The Princess Kiss when upgrading frog symbols are handled as follows: On the first princess kiss, the frog is upgraded to the corresponding high symbol prince. If the same prince symbol receives a second kiss, it now receives a randomly allocated wild banner multiplier (x1, x2 or x3). All wins are now multiplied by the sum of the wild banner multipliers on the corresponding win line.
Free Games
The heart Scatter symbol only lands on reel 3. When the heart Scatter symbol lands inside the Charming Hot Zone, the Free Spins feature is awarded.
The number of Free Spins awarded depends on the selected Prince.
- 8 Free Spins, Multipliers: x5 & 10x only
Very high volatility – very high wins but less frequent.
- 10 Free Spins, Multipliers: x3, x4 & 5x only
High volatility – high wins but less frequent.
- 12 Free Spins, Multipliers: x1, x2, x3 only
Medium volatility – medium wins but more frequent.
Every heart Scatter symbol landing inside the Charming Zone, during the feature, adds +1 Free Spins.
Love Meter (During Free Spins Only)
Each time during Free Spins, when the Princess Wild lands in the Charming Hot Zone and kisses the players selected Prince, she will randomly upgrade the player’s chosen Prince symbols, into wilds, if there are any on screen.
Any such upgrade will increase the Love Meter by 1.
The meter fills 1 heart for every round of kisses. Once the meter is filled with 3 hearts, the lowest value Frog symbol (Medium 3) will be upgraded to the player chosen prince. Once all Frog symbols have been upgraded to the players chosen prince, no more upgrades are possible but additional spins may be earned by filling the heart meter.
Side Bet
For an additional fee of 50% of the player’s current bet, the probability of getting into Free Spins are doubled.
For an additional fee of 25% of the player’s current bet, the probability of the Princess Wild landing is doubled.

Playing with both side bets on, increases the bet size by 100%.

Max Win Rules
The probability of the maximum win displayed in this game refers to the sum of winnings of the highest possible symbol values, across all possible win criteria – either as a single game round or collectively as part of a feature. This may, or may not, include additional winnings obtained through extra win multiplying possibilities within the game. Higher winnings are also possible at a lower probability.
Malfunction
Malfunction of the game voids all pays. In case the game round is interrupted, it can be restored by simply starting the game again, within the period of 90 days.
After that period, the incomplete round will be void.
