Symbol Types

The game has three main groups of icons. High value icons show mining tools and the miner himself. These pay the most coins when they line up. Standard card icons from nine to ace pay smaller amounts. Special icons do different jobs in the game. The wild dynamite blows up to help make winning lines. It takes the place of other icons except scatters and gold nuggets. The scatter mine opens the free spins round when three or more land. Gold nuggets have cash values and trigger the Hold & Win game.
