How marked positions become permanent Wild cells

The base game uses a 7×7 board where five or more matching fruit symbols connect into a cluster. Winning groups are removed and fresh symbols tumble into the spaces, creating further chances to use any active Wild positions.

Before each paid spin between 12 and 19 positions are marked. A Super Wild bee can land on one marked cell and convert up to six of the marked positions into Wilds that remain sticky for all later tumbles in that sequence.

Four scatters award seven free spins and every additional scatter adds one more. Up to three bees can activate on a bonus spin, and all generated Wilds remain in place until the feature ends.

Super Wild bees, selected spaces and bonus coverage

  • Five-symbol clusters:Adjacent groups of five or more fruits trigger tumbling wins.
  • Marked cells:Each spin begins with between 12 and 19 highlighted grid positions.
  • Super Wild bee:A bee landing on a marked cell activates the Wild conversion.
  • Six-cell conversion:One bee can turn as many as six marked positions into Wilds.
  • Sticky tumbles:Generated Wilds remain active for every later tumble in that spin.
  • Persistent bonus:All Wild cells created in free spins stay until the round ends.

Players who enjoy building sticky positions

  • Marked-cell progression:You like seeing potential Wild positions before the bee lands.
  • Persistent bonus coverage:You prefer activated cells that remain useful across later spins.
  • Large-board clusters:You enjoy connected fruit wins on a 7×7 grid.
  • Position-building patience:You accept that useful Wild coverage may take several spins to form.
 
Persistent-position variance

A broad Wild area still needs matching fruit around it to create paying clusters.

Free spins where generated Wilds remain active

Four scatter symbols award seven free spins and each extra scatter adds one more. The feature keeps the normal cluster and tumble rules but changes how long activated Wild positions remain available.

Up to three Super Wild bees can be added on a free spin and are guaranteed to land on marked positions. Each activation can turn several highlighted cells into Wilds, improving the chance of connecting fruit clusters.

Every generated Wild stays through all remaining spins, allowing coverage to accumulate across the round. The x10,000 cap still requires paying fruit symbols around those positions, so a crowded Wild grid does not create an automatic maximum.
