Two matching symbols are enough for a win in Boss Bear, a video slot from Push Gaming played on a 5x6 grid. Matches must run consecutively from the leftmost reel. The 50 fixed win lines are scored separately, and wins on different lines add together. The theme draws on four worlds, Japanese, Mafia, Monkeys and Panda, so the symbols include the Panda called the Boss and the card suits.
Three or more scatters start the Free Spins: 7, 8 or 9 spins for 3, 4 or 5 scatters. Each scatter lifts a coin multiplier up to 10x. Reveal tiles on three or more consecutive reels turn golden and start the Coin Feature. Offered after three or four scatters, the Gamble Feature lets you bank the prize or risk it on a blank rung.
Know each trigger
At Casino Secret, every bonus is explained from trigger to prize before you play.
3 or more consecutive reels, once reveal tiles land on them, start the Coin Feature. Those tiles turn into golden reveal tiles, and every golden reveal position then spins through instant-prize, multiplier, collector and nudge symbols.
Base game reelsPrizes and multipliers
7, 8 or 9 spins come from 3, 4 or 5 scatters, and 3 or more scatters trigger the Free Spins. During the round, each scatter collected converts a low symbol into a reveal symbol, which adds extra spins and raises a persistent coin multiplier up to 10x.
Base game scattersExtra free spins
3 or 4 scatters offer the Gamble Feature as a vertical ladder. Its rungs alternate between blank rungs and free-spins-prize rungs. You can collect the banked prize, or push one rung higher for a bigger award, but a blank rung puts everything at risk.
Scatter landingsFree spins prize
20% is added to your total bet when the optional Push Bet toggle is on, which increases the chance of triggering a feature. Wins still pay against the base bet, not the raised Push Bet amount.

At Casino Secret, each screen comes from the game, so you see the layout before you bet.
Ready to bet
Casino Secret lays out each step first, so the choices are clear before the reels turn.
A$0.10 is the smallest bet and A$100 the highest. Push Bet adds 20 per cent to the total bet, and wins still pay on the base bet.
30 fixed positions and 50 fixed win lines decide where a win forms. Symbols pay when they run in a row from the leftmost reel, and wins on separate lines add together.
Reveal tiles landing on 3 or more consecutive reels turn golden, and each golden position then spins through instant prizes, multipliers, collectors and nudges.
3 scatters start 7 free spins, 4 start 8 and 5 start 9. Each scatter collected in the round adds spins and raises the coin multiplier up to 10x.
At A$100 a spin, the highest bet here, a loss limit set before the first spin decides when you stop.
Each paid feature costs a fixed multiple of the bet, so the money price in the table below follows the stake you choose.
| Buy option | Total cost | RTP |
|---|---|---|
| Random Free Spins | x100 · A$1,000 | – |
| Full Screen Golden Reveal Feature | x300 · A$3,000 | – |
| 5 Bonus Symbol Free Spins | x600 · A$6,000 | – |
Return to player shows how much of every A$100 staked a version pays back over a long run, and not what one session will return. The version running here is listed in the game rules.
| Payback level | RTP | Set by provider |

Boss Bear has 30 fixed positions on a 5x6 grid, but the layout does not show how often the Coin Feature or the Free Spins will come. Nobody can know that rate before the first spin. The result of one session is random, whichever RTP version is running.
Six RTP versions of Boss Bear exist, from 96.26 to 96.81. Which version is running is shown only in the game rules. Check them before the first spin, because the RTP money table uses A$100 staked as its basis.
x25,000 of the bet is the largest win Boss Bear can pay, which is A$2,500,000 at the A$100 max bet. That ceiling is reached very rarely, so read it as a ceiling, not as an expected result.

Boss Bear questions
Most readers want to know how the free spins start and how large a win can get.
Three scatters start the free spins, giving 7 spins, while 4 scatters give 8 and 5 scatters give 9. Each scatter collected during the round turns a low symbol into a reveal symbol, adds extra spins and raises a persistent coin multiplier up to 10x.
x25,000 of the bet is the maximum win. At the example top bet of A$10 that is A$250,000, and at the highest bet of A$100 it reaches A$2,500,000.
300x the base bet buys the Full Screen Golden Reveal, which starts the Coin Feature directly. Random Free Spins and 5 Bonus Symbol Free Spins cost 100x and 600x. At a top bet of A$10, the three options cost A$3,000, A$1,000 and A$6,000 in that order.
Six RTP versions of Boss Bear exist, each with its own return to player. RTP is a long-run average over a very large number of spins, so it cannot predict the result of one session.
