There is a 5×5 reel set up on the Galactic Gems slot, but when each new spin on the base game takes place, 12 positions of the reels will be taken up by blocker symbols. This means that initially, you will be playing with just 45 ways to win, increasing to the maximum of 3,125 ways when all blocker symbols are removed. So, how exactly do you remove these symbols? Let’s look at the in-game features and bonuses below to find out.

Respin & Blocker Symbols

For a respin to be triggered, you will need to connect a minimum of 3 matching symbols from left to right on the reels. If this can be achieved, the game will remove the same amount of blocker symbols involved in your winning connection. So, if, for example, you made a winning combination that contained 5 symbols, then 5 blockers would be removed. Furthermore, every win you hit will award a respin for more chances to win and additional opportunities to remove more blockers.

The bonus respin feature will initiate once you have removed all blocker symbols from the reels and unlocked the full 3,125 ways to win. You’ll be awarded with a starting win multiplier of x1 and 1 extra life before the reels begin to spin

Respin Feature

Every winning connection you make will increase the win multiplier by x1 in value, and underneath the reels, you will also see a win meter that goes up to 15. Once you have collected 15 symbols from winning combinations, you will be awarded an extra life. Be careful, though; fail to hit a new win, and you’ll lose a life, and once they are all gone, the bonus will end.
