you have entered 6X jackpot territory.
When a Phoenix Gold symbol
arrives on the payline with max coin in play, the top box bonus event
occurs with bundles of cash and arrows alit and a ‘Take Shot’ symbol.
Either you receive a bonus amount or if the ‘Take Shot’ is lit, you get
a second bonus until the round ends.
