The two lowest paying symbols include the small red berries as well as the red and black mixed berries. The main bonus feature in this game is the frozen symbol re-spin function. Whenever a winning combination is achieved, the symbols involved in the win will freeze in place. A re-spin will be triggered creating more chances of hitting another winning combination. The slot will continue to trigger a re-spin as long as another symbol matches the frozen symbols already on screen.
The Column Multiplier Feature
The second bonus feature to look out for in Winter Berries is the multiplier feature. When a symbol fills an entire column, this will activate a multiplier for the particular win. The symbols will freeze in place and offer the opportunity to fill up the next column going from left to right. Each successive column adds another 1x multiplier. If players manage to fill all five columns with the same symbol, this will result in a 5x multiplier that will automatically be added to the winning bet.
