Fairground Fortunes: Ghost Train Slot by Playtech

Two of this game's features want different reels, and that shapes how you read the grid. The bats that start free spins only count on reels 1, 3 and 5. The train symbols that start the ride bonus only count on reels 2, 3 and 4. Reel 3 is the one they share, so any single spin can be feeding both triggers at once while the outer reels pull in opposite directions.

Free spins run ten deep and rebuild the board twice over. Wilds arrive stacked, filling whole reels rather than single cells, and the active line count climbs from 20 to 50. Those extra 30 lines are the point: a stacked wild pays across far more positions than the same symbol would manage in the base game. Retriggers have no cap either, so a fresh trio of bats mid-round tacks another ten spins onto whatever you had left.

The Ghost Train Bonus is the goofier half. Three train symbols on reels 2, 3 and 4 and the ride opens, carrying you past a line of cartoon monsters who each hand over a cash prize as you roll by. Reel 3 hides a golden super-train, and when that's the one to land there, the ride runs at least three passes instead of stopping after one. It's a pick-style payout dressed up as a fairground attraction.

Then the coconuts. Five of the cracked-coconut scatters anywhere on the reels pay a flat instant win worth up to 100x your total bet, no feature behind it, just the hit. The reels themselves sit inside a dark purple stone tunnel strung with rusted chains and creeping vines, blinking bulbs running across the archway above. The horror is played for laughs, not scares: a coconut with vampire fangs and a cape, a bandaged mummy-coconut peering in from the right edge, a sheet ghost, a fanged red dodgem, a bouncy castle, and glossy candy-coloured card royals underneath, green J, purple K, red Q, orange A.
