The Wild Symbol is the Dolphin. It acts as a substitute for all other symbols (except for the scatter symbol and the special wild symbol) in order to help you complete a winning combination. The Dolphin wild symbols can only be found at the 2nd and 4th reels in the main Dolphin Coast online slot game, whereas it is found on all 5 reels in the Free Spin Bonus Feature game.

The Stacked Dolphin wild symbols help you boost your chances of winning, by means of substituting for other symbols to complete winning combinations.

There is a Special Wild Symbol in the Dolphin Coast online slot game, which is the Dolphin Coast Logo symbol. The Dolphin Coast Logo wild symbol functions as a substitute for other symbols to help you form winning combinations. The Dolphin Coast Logo wild symbol is only found on the 3rd reel. It can substitute for the Dolphin wild symbol too. If you managed to get the Dolphin Coast Logo wild symbol on the 3rd reel and it is involved in a winning combination, you will activate the Special Dolphin Coast Bonus Feature game.
The Scatter Symbol is the School of Tuna symbol. Scatter symbols mean that they do not need to appear in a line (on an enabled pay line) for you to win. The School of Tuna scatter symbol can be scattered anywhere on the 5 reels for you to complete winning combinations, as long as there are 2 or more School of Tuna scatter symbols that appear. Your winnings are calculated by multiplying the School of Tuna scatter symbol combination payout (refer to the Payout table) by the total number of coins you’ve bet. If you get 3 or more School of Tuna scatter symbols (found anywhere on the 5 reels), you will trigger the Free Spin Bonus Feature game.

Scatter awards are independent from pay line awards, thus they are added to the pay line win.
