How the Game Plays

Heavy Anchor by Octoplay takes you on a maritime voyage into a treasure-filled bay. The game utilizes an unconventional grid where the number of rows on each of the five reels can vary between three and nine on every spin. Instead of traditional paylines, it uses a Pay Anywhere mechanic, meaning wins are awarded whenever eight or more matching symbols land anywhere on the grid. Winning combinations trigger a cascade, where successful symbols vanish to allow new ones to drop into place, potentially creating a chain reaction of rewards. Low-paying symbols include various colored coins and an eye patch, while high-paying icons feature pirate staples like rum bottles, scrolls, hooks, and golden rings.

Free Spins Explained

Landing three or more Treasure Chest scatters triggers the free spins round, starting with 10 spins. Each additional scatter beyond the third adds two more spins to the tally. During this feature, the game's core mechanics are enhanced: specifically, the Wild Anchor multiplier does not reset between spins. This allows the multiplier to accumulate throughout the entire bonus round, reaching a potential maximum of 100x. The feature can be retriggered by landing more scatters during the session.

Wild Compass and Blaze Multipliers Explained

The Compass Wild is central to the action. When it contributes to a win, it moves to the top of its reel and waits for all cascades to finish. It then transforms into an Anchor and drops down the reel, destroying every symbol in its path. Each destroyed symbol increases the Anchor's multiplier by +1. Once it reaches the bottom, the total multiplier is applied to all wins for that spin. Additionally, any standard symbol can appear with a Red or Blue Blaze, instantly applying a 5x or 10x multiplier to any winning combination they belong to.
