About this Slot
Octo's Lair is a fantasy-themed slot from Shortcut Gaming with an RTP of 96.7%, low volatility and a maximum win of 30,000x. The game features 6 reels, 4 rows and wins formed on ways paylines.
Cascading reels remove winning symbols from the board, allowing new symbols to fall into empty spaces and create additional wins in a single spin. Wild symbols substitute for all other symbols to complete winning combinations.
Orbs land on the reels and multiply the total of any winning spin by a value between 5x and 1000x. These orbs do not form wins themselves and remain on the board across cascades. During free spins, collected orb values accumulate to build a persistent multiplier that grows throughout the bonus round.
Bonus symbols trigger free spins in three distinct modes, each with its own spin count and multiplier mechanics. Lair Spins awards 10 free spins where orb multipliers persist across the feature. Deep Lair grants 8 free spins with a persistent orb multiplier. The Abyss provides 6 free spins, also with a persistent orb multiplier built from collected orb values.
Six bonus buy options allow players to trigger the free spins modes directly. Kraken Ante costs 3x the bet, Lair Spins costs 50x, Mystery Tide costs 90x, Deep Lair costs 165x, Kraken Storm costs 285x and The Abyss costs 290x.
