You’ll need three or more metal ball scatters on the reels. Now you are faced with two Scottish men in front of twelve targets. You select a target at a time to reveal two matching multipliers, once you’ve achieved this the multiplier is added to your winnings.The third bonus feature is the Caber Toss. This feature triggers after 3 or more Scotsman scatters land on a spin. A toss is awarded per scatter. 5 targets reveal a multiplier of up to 100x and 10 free spins. During this feature, the free spin prizes double along with an added multiplier to enhance the winning potential.
