Gilded Ascent — paytable
Inside Gilded Ascent
Wilds hold for a respin
When a spin pays nothing but shows a wild, the wilds stay where they are and the other cells spin once more for free.
Wins pay left to right on 8 fixed lines from the first reel. Your stake is split evenly across the lines, and only the highest win on each line is paid. Every spin picks an independent random position on each reel; nothing adapts to your balance or how long you have played.
