Slot Features
In Zulu Gold, there are many special symbols that each provide a unique function that improves players’ chances of winning:
Colossal Symbols
The wild symbol and all paying symbols appear as colossal symbols. On the reels, they can occupy 2×2, 3×3, or 4×4 spaces and perform some pretty cool functions
Under the colossal symbol, if there is a space left empty, symbols to match it will be placed in that space.
If a colossal symbol falls below any regular symbols of a smaller size, the colossal symbol will smash them. Wild symbols, bonus symbols, or symbols that are the same size will not be destroyed.
Zulu Stacks
Getting Zulu Stacks helps you land wins and expand the reel set more easily. Symbols can be stacked two, three or four positions high.
Spreading Wilds
There is also a special significance to the wild gold lion symbol. It will appear in each cascade in a single spin, creating trails of wilds as it travels across the reels.
Charged Wilds
They look like Zulu Stacks, but they are actually wilds with extra lives.
