Swirlcomb Vat

Teal and oxblood float on a shallow trough of thickened water while a freshly lifted marbled sheet drips above it. Anyone can spin straight away, and a paid spin that combs up nothing gets a second pass with its wilds held in the colour.

About this world

Swirlcomb Vat

Swirlcomb Vat is the trough Pigmund keeps uncovered at the mouth of the alley, so its reels are wet and ready on arrival. Its temperament is middling: the Gall Phial, Pin Comb and Paste Crock drip in small returns, while the Swirl Newt and the Lifted Endpaper carry the richer pays. A Feather Ring takes the place of anything but the Brass Rake. If a paid spin comes back bare, the rings stay floating while the rest of the trough is combed through once more. Three Brass Rakes raking in anywhere start ten free spins; a fourth rake makes it fifteen, a fifth twenty-five, and more rakes mid-round add spins.

Hold the Swirl. Whenever a paid spin brings back nothing, each Feather Ring wild in view keeps its place in the colour and every other position on the grid is respun once, free.

The honest part

Coins only, on every wall

Every wall is played with free virtual coins. Nothing here is real-money gambling, nothing you win has real-world value, and in-app purchases do not exist. A random number generator decides each result; one spin never shapes the next.

Measured by running this page's own engine for 10,000,000 spins: coin RTP 94.4%, hit frequency 44.8%, free spins about once in 120 spins, a win of 10x your stake or more about once in 101 spins. Coin figures only — no money is staked or returned.

How to play

Swirlcomb Vat in three steps

1

Arrive on the page and Pigmund has already set a pot of coins on the edge of the marbling trough, with no sign-up form and nothing to download.

2

Choose a stake and press spin. A Feather Ring wild finishes a line for any picture in the vat, though it never covers for the Brass Rake.

3

An empty paid spin leaves the rings floating and combs the rest once more for free; meanwhile three Brass Rakes rake in ten free spins, and a fourth or fifth rake raises that to fifteen or twenty-five.

Who it suits

First-timers who would like a feel for the alley before making an account, and anyone happy with a middling pace and a free second comb through empty paid spins.

What to expect

Small returns turn up regularly on paid spins, and the held-ring respin takes the edge off the quiet patches. The bigger pays float with the Swirl Newt and the Lifted Endpaper.

Questions

They come with you. Pigmund stirs them into the fresh 100,000-coin pot waiting for each newcomer.

No. Hold the Swirl only follows an empty paid spin; the free round plays straight through without it.
