Bloody Dawn is a high volatility video slot from Pragmatic Play, 5x4 grid, 1024 ways to win. The figures, bonus modes and market rules follow below.
Pick Bloody Dawn if you want a high volatility slot with a horror and Western feel. The game has a 5x4 grid and four themes: horror, Native American, vampires and Western. Wins come from 1024 ways to win instead of fixed paylines. Three matching symbols are the fewest that pay. Winning symbols are removed after each win and new ones fall in, so one spin can chain several wins.
Choose the free spins for a multiplier that builds over a round. Three to ten scatters anywhere on the grid trigger 12 free spins, and the scatter count sets a starting multiplier from x1 to x8. The multiplier carries over between spins and grows on every tumble. Gold symbols land on reel 3 in each free spin. More scatters add 6 more spins.

Four modes to read
At 888 Casino, each bonus rule is listed as the game runs it, before the first spin.
3-10 SCATTER symbols start the Free Spins with 12 spins. Multiplier starts at x1-x8, matching the scatter count, and persists between spins. Each tumble adds the starting value. Retrigger (3-10 scatters) multiplies the increase rate by 2-9 and adds 6 spins. GOLD symbols land on reel 3 each spin.
Base game spins12 free spins
The cost is 100x total bet, and the round guarantees a 3-SCATTER trigger with starting multiplier x1. That trigger opens the Free Spins round, which always awards 12 free spins.
Base gameFree Spins round
The purchase costs 200x total bet and guarantees a 4-SCATTER trigger with starting multiplier x2. Then the round runs as Free Spins, which always awards 12 free spins.
Base gameHigher starting multiplier
The price is 250x total bet, and the scatter count is random. A Gamble Wheel is offered before the round starts. Spin WIN or LOSE to raise the starting multiplier by +1 per successful gamble, up to x15, or COLLECT the current value. Landing LOSE forfeits the entire round.
Before the roundPossible x15 start
Check the price first: each buy is a multiple of the bet, and with A$2 as the bet they run from A$200 to A$600.
| Bonus buy | Bet multiple | RTP |
|---|---|---|
| Buy Free Spins | x100 · A$200 | – |
| Buy Super Free Spins 1 | x200 · A$400 | – |
| Buy Random Free Spins | x250 · A$500 | – |
| Buy Super Free Spins 2 | x300 · A$600 | – |
Decide with the return in mind: the game pays back a set share of each stake over time, so A$100 staked returns that share on average. The version we run is named in the game rules.

Round guide
After this, you will know how each stage of a round runs before the first spin.
Pick a stake from A$0.20 up to A$500 before the first spin. Every spin is charged at the total bet, and the bet sets the value of each win.
Land three matching symbols on neighbouring reels, counted from the left, to form a win. The grid has 1024 ways, not fixed lines. Winning symbols clear and new ones drop in.
Chase long tumble chains, because the multiplier adds x1 with each tumble in a spin. Wilds complete wins, and Scatters count toward free spins. It resets when the spin ends.
Land three to ten Scatters anywhere on the grid, and 12 free spins begin. The starting multiplier runs from x1 to x8 by Scatter count and keeps growing through the round.
Set a budget and a stop point before the first spin, then stop when either is reached. The National Gambling Helpline is 1800 858 858.
Decide how much to stake per spin knowing that the bonus round arrives at a rate nobody can predict in Bloody Dawn. How often free spins start is not known in advance. The result of one session is random, whatever the RTP. Two players with the same bet can finish a session far apart, one ahead and one at zero.
Look up which RTP version runs before you deposit, because the game rules are the only place it appears. The RTP describes the long-run return per bet, not the result of one session. It says nothing about your next spin.
Plan each session around the bet you can afford to lose, not around the top prize. The maximum win in Bloody Dawn is a ceiling that players reach very rarely. Treat it as the upper edge of the game, and let it set neither your stake nor your session length.

Start playingPlayer questions
Most players worry about cost and maximum win, so the answers below give the figures.
Bloody Dawn is a 5x4 video slot from Pragmatic Play with 1,024 ways to win. The smallest bet is A$0.20, and the paytable on this page shows payouts at that bet. Start at the lowest bet to learn how the tumble and free spins behave before you raise it.
The maximum win is x5,000 times the bet. At the example top bet of A$2, that comes to A$10,000. At the highest bet allowed here, A$500, it comes to A$2,500,000.
Bets run from A$0.20 to A$500 per spin. The examples on this page use A$0.20, A$1 and A$2, so the amounts are easy to compare. Bigger bets raise every payout in the same proportion.
Bloody Dawn has high volatility. Wins come less often and vary more in size than in a low volatility game, so a run without a large win is normal. The results of any session cannot be known in advance.
Four buy options start the free spins for a fixed price of 100 to 300 times the bet. Three of them guarantee a set number of scatters, while Random Free Spins leaves the scatter count to chance.
Three to ten Scatter symbols anywhere on the grid trigger the free spins. Every trigger awards 12 free spins, whatever the scatter count. The number of scatters sets the starting multiplier from x1 to x8, and a retrigger adds 6 more spins.
Pick your next spin
The usual worry is that one slot will not suit you, so check the other titles first.
This game is for players aged 18+. For help, call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, or self-exclude through BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.
Decide how much you can lose before the first spin, and keep that amount separate. When it is gone, stop for the session.
Pick the moment you will stop before you start. Keep that rule after a win too, because a win does not guarantee the next one.
Set a deposit limit and a loss limit in your account before you play. They help keep a session within what you planned.
Take a break as soon as playing stops feeling like fun, even mid-session. If you keep coming back to it against your plan, self-exclude.
