Hot Numbers: a 3x3 Mancala slot that pays in numbers
Hot Numbers is a slot from Mancala, played on a three-by-three screen with five paylines that are always in play. What sets it apart is the way it pays: adjacent digits on a payline are read together as a single figure of two or three digits, and multiplying that figure by the stake gives the payout.
What the screen looks like
Gold-framed reels sit on a deep red background. Most cells show a small flame, with a golden 7 turning up among them, and the HOT NUMBERS logo beside the reels turns the O into a flame and puts a pair of horns over the word HOT.
Reading a winning line
According to the game rules, a payline wins when two or three digits sit in adjacent cells, read from left to right. A 4 followed by a 2 makes 42, and that 42 is multiplied by the stake. The smallest number that pays is 10.
Only the best-paying result on a given line counts; when two or more lines pay on one spin, their amounts are summed.
Where the five lines run
The rules screen draws the line layout as five small diagrams, and the set never changes from spin to spin:
the middle row;
the top row;
the bottom row;
a diagonal from the top-left corner down to the bottom-right;
a diagonal from the bottom-left corner up to the top-right.
