5-Reel 20-line Slots
The object of Diamond Valley Pro is to obtain winning symbol combinations by spinning the reels.
To play the game:
- A wagering denomination can be chosen by clicking the Click to Change denomination button in the lower left-hand corner of the screen.
- Line bets are chosen by clicking Bet per Line. Each click adds a coin to the line bet. When the maximum amount is reached, clicking the button again resets the line bet to one coin.
- Paylines are chosen by clicking Lines to add a payline, or by using the numbered buttons on either side of the reels. Selecting a high payline includes all the lower ones too. For example, selecting payline 6 also activates paylines 1 through 5. Clicking Bet Max activates all paylines with the maximum bet per line and spins the reels.
- Total bet per game round = line bet X active paylines.
- Clicking Spin spins the reels with the current selection of lines and line bets.
- Reels can also be spun using the Auto Start function. Clicking + or - above Auto Start selects the successive number of spins to be enabled. Clicking Auto Start spins the reels.
- Wins are calculated according to the paytable. Line win = line bet X corresponding multiplier according to the paytable. Scatter win = total bet X corresponding multiplier according to the paytable. The paytable can be accessed via the Info page.
- On a given payline, only the highest win combination pays while simultaneous winnings on different paylines are added up together.
- A win activates the Gamble button which, when clicked, opens the gamble page. Winnings can be doubled by choosing a card that is higher than the dealer's card. Clicking Collect adds winnings to the casino balance and returns to the slot reels.
- Gamble button is disabled during the Auto Start function and free spins.

Paylines:
Active paylines are represented by lines that appear over the reels. Paylines can be activated and their shape displayed by progressively clicking Lines.
Please note: Only active paylines can register wins. The Scatter symbol is an exception to this rule. More information about the Scatter symbol can be found, below.
Please note: There is a difference between the line bet and the total bet. The line bet shows how much is being bet on a single payline. The total bet shows all game round bets. Payouts shown in the paytable are multiplied by the line bet. An exception to this is the Scatter symbol where the payout shown in the paytable is multiplied by the total bet. If winning combinations exist on more than one payline, winnings for each payline are added up.
About payouts:
Payouts are listed on the Paytable screen. To find the possible win amount, the line bet must be multiplied by the payout.
If two winning combinations occur on the same line, the higher of them is paid out. If more than one active payline has a winning combination, the winnings are added up.
Winning combinations must start from the left most reel, and the symbols have to be consecutive.
The Wild symbol can stand for any other symbol, except Scatter and Bonus, to make the best possible winning combination. There is also a separate payout for several Wild symbols on an active payline.
Scatter symbol
The Scatter symbols do not have to occur on a particular payline - if there are three or more Scatter symbols in the results, an additional win is earned. The payout for Scatter symbols is multiplied by the total bet.
Bonus symbol
When Bonus symbols appear on the first and last reels, the bonus round immediately begins and the player is awarded a guaranteed prize of 4 times the bet. In the bonus game, choose one person to rescue from the pit - the number of free spins, and then choose your reward - the additional win multiplier that applies to all wins during the free spins. After the player clicks Continue, the free spins commence.
During the free spins, your line bet, coin size and number of lines are those last played before the bonus round. If Bonus symbols appear on the first and last reels during a free spin, new free spins are added to the existing ones at random. The win multiplier does not change.
