Treats of Terror II Bonus Features

Collector and Sweet Rewards – The Heart of the Release

This is the main feature of Treats of Terror II. Coin money icons with values from 1x to 9x of the bet and Bonus Treats – special symbols with a pre-fixed payout – fall onto the grid. When the Collector (hockey mask) lands with them, it collects all coins and sweet rewards in the field in one motion and pays out their total value. Without the Collector, the values remain on the screen until the end of the round – this is a rare solution for scatter-pays projects, which gives the feeling of "it's accumulating right now" instead of the usual "landed - collected".

Sweet rewards are divided into five prize levels: Mini – 10x, Minor – 25x, Major – 100x, Mega – 250x, Grand – 1000x of the bet. When GO Ultra is activated, all five values are doubled: Mini becomes 20x, and Grand becomes an impressive 2000x of the bet. These trophies are paid out only if collected by the Collector or if they go into Terry's piggy bank at the end of the round.

Tactically, it's interesting that the Collector is the only way to these payouts in the main game. If the Collector doesn't land for the entire spin, all landed rewards and coin icons are wasted – well, not entirely wasted, but go into Terry's piggy bank. This creates a "I see the reward on the screen but don't get it" situation – for users with high gambling sensitivity, this is an irritant, but it's precisely what creates the intrigue of the "the Collector is about to land" series.

Terry Treats – What the Collector Missed

All coin money icons and sweet rewards that land on the reels but are not collected by the Collector go into Terry's piggy bank – the ghostly character on the left side of the screen. The mechanic is activated randomly: Terry spills out five random trophies – from 1x, 1.5x, 2x, 2.5x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 7x, 8x, or 9x of the bet, or one of the sweet prizes with a denomination of 10x, 25x, 100x, 250x, or 1000x of the bet. This saves rounds where the Collector didn't land and provides a steady influx of medium payouts in long sessions.

Triggering Terry is random but not uniform: the more "missed" values in the piggy bank, the higher the chance of activation in the nearest spins (based on our observations). Users who keep in mind how much Terry has accumulated get information about whether to continue the session or take a break. Unlike classic hold-and-spin projects, the piggy bank does not reset between spins – it accumulates throughout the session and periodically discharges a random set of 5 trophies.

Terry's persona is a separate designer finding: a small ghost with big sad eyes, clutching a bag of trophies to its chest. The activation animation lasts about 4 seconds and is accompanied by a distinctive "hoot" – a recognizable sound that immediately highlights the moment in a long session. In our experience, Terry's activation frequency is approximately once every 80-120 spins at a standard bet and noticeably more often in GO Ultra.

Free Spins and Progressive Multiplier

Trigger – three or more Scatters (golden tickets) on the reels: 8 free spins with an x2 global multiplier start at stage 1. In the extra round, the grid remains the same, but Scatters continue to accumulate. Every five collected tickets move the user to the next stage – which grants both additional spins and a higher multiplier.

• Stage 1 – start: 8 Free Spins, x2 multiplier
• Stage 2 – +5 spins (13 total), x3 multiplier
• Stage 3 – +7 spins (20 total), x5 multiplier
• Stage 4 – +8 spins (28 total), x10 multiplier

Maximum – 28 free spins with a global x10 boost for each payout. This is where the entire potential for the x15000 bet cap is embedded: one large cascade with a couple of Grand sweet rewards at stage 4 is enough to reach the upper limit. The global boost applies to each winning payout in the round, not on a separate spin – this is important because in cascading rounds, x10 applies to the entire win tree.

At stages 1 and 2, the round feels almost like a continuation of the main game – payouts are the same in absolute terms, just multiplied by x2 or x3. At stage 3 and even more so at stage 4, the rhythm changes: cascades become longer (due to a larger total number of Scatters on the screen), and total payouts jump by an order of magnitude. To reach stage 4, you need to collect 15 Scatters over the entire extra round session – this is a rare event, happening in approximately one out of ten rounds according to our tests.

A feature of the project's math is that the transition between stages does not reset the remaining spins. If a user had 4 spins left at stage 2 and collected 5 Scatters, they would get +7 spins added to their existing 4 at stage 3 – a total of 11 for that stage. This is a rare solution for scatter-pays projects, and it significantly increases the chance of clearing all four stages in one activation.

GO Ultra Ante Bet – Increased Risk Format

A separate button under the reels. It can be activated on any spin and increases the current bet by 50%, in return providing four immediate effects: sweet rewards, when they appear, are guaranteed to advance one level (Mini → Minor, Minor → Major, etc.), Mini/Minor/Major/Mega/Grand values are doubled, the starting number of free spins from the trigger is 13 instead of 8, and the initial multiplier in the round is x3 instead of x2. Essentially, GO Ultra transforms the basic rhythm into a more aggressive one: empty screens appear less often, but losses also become more significant due to the increased spin price.

Tactically, GO Ultra is a compromise. In the long run, +50% to the bet drains the bankroll faster than the regular mode seems to, but doubled sweet rewards and an earlier entry into stage 2 (due to the increased chance of entering the extra round) provide a significant boost in large rounds. In our experience, GO Ultra only makes sense if the user is set for a short, aggressive session of 100-200 spins with the expectation of a big win; for long sessions of 500+ spins, the regular mode is more profitable – there, the drawdowns are more noticeable, and the mathematical expectation is roughly comparable.

Switching between regular mode and GO Ultra is instant, without session restart or loss of anything accumulated in Terry's piggy bank. This is convenient for test runs: you can spin for half an hour at a normal pace, catch the moment when the piggy bank is full, switch to GO Ultra, and try to land a big win. The chance of Terry's activation at this moment does not decrease – the piggy bank retains all accumulated value regardless of the current betting mode.
