Features

K-Cash

You will quickly identify fingerprints moving from right to left on the game screen. When a position containing a fingerprint is hovered over by a magnifying glass, then the reward associated with the magnifying glass is won.
If multiple positions with fingerprints are hovered over by magnifying glasses then a win multiplier will apply, which can be 2x, 5x, 20x, 50x or 200x.

K-Boost

Each Free Spins Bonus starts with a certain number of free spins and has an associated counter that can fill up little by little as the spins are played.

Free Spins

The Sherlock Holmes and Watson symbols are special symbols, when you get 3 or more of the same type, you will trigger the Holmes Free Spins or Watson Free Spins bonus with a payout ranging from 2x to 50x the bet. During the free spins, the bonus symbols can trigger additional rewards and free spins. You can receive up to 15 extra spins with 6 bonus symbols.
In the bonus, the value displayed on each magnifying glass of the K-Cash feature increases when the symbol moves to the left depending on the triggered Free Spin mode. Thus, the value increases up to 6x its original value with the Watson Free Spins mode and up to 15x with the Holmes Free Spins mode.

Hyper Bonus

There’s no need to break the bank to access the Free Spins, another way is to purchase one of the 4 bonus options where you can try your luck at Free Spins for the amount displayed under each purchase option.
