Welcome to the pride! Lion Gems: Hold and Win is a new online slot game at Casiny NZ that brings the thrill of the African savanna straight to your screen. With stunning graphics, smooth animations, and the chance to win big, this game stands out from the crowd.

Winning Lines

Lion Gems has 5 reels and 3 rows, with 25 fixed paylines. To form a winning combination, you need to land 3 or more matching symbols on adjacent reels, starting from the leftmost reel. The more matching icons you land, the bigger the payout. With so many paylines, you have tons of chances to hit winning combinations and pile up those prizes. The game also features stacked elements, where multiple identical symbols can appear stacked on top of one another on a single reel. This massively increases your chance of hitting those big wins!

Bonus Rounds

The main attraction in Lion Gems is the bonus feature. Land a full stack of identical gem symbols across the reels to activate the Hold and Win bonus. The gems will start shining to confirm the bonus is live. You then get 3 re-spins with the gem icons held in place. On each re-spin, more gem elements can land and also be held, meaning you can stockpile masses of gems across the reels. Each additional gem adds more re-spins, up to a maximum of 9. With entire reels filled with gems, every spin brings monumental wins. You can keep re-triggering the bonus too by landing more gems, which could see you hitting insane payouts of 1000x your bet or more! This Hold and Win mechanic creates incredible excitement and anticipation as you steadily build up gems and wins during the feature. It’s a unique twist that really ramps up the entertainment factor.
