Marilyn Monroe (ACE333): how the expanding wild pays

The Marilyn Monroe slot on ACE333 is built around the Hollywood actress, who still stands as one of cinema's best-known screen icons. Almost every visual in the game is dedicated to her and her era, from the symbols to the animations.

The expanding Marilyn wild

The wild is the feature to watch. When it lands, it expands to fill the entire reel and turns into an animated version of Marilyn's most famous photograph: the white dress lifted by the air from a subway grate as she laughs.

A wild that covers a full reel touches every payline passing through it, so one expansion can help several lines at once.

How wild pays are worked out

The game pays the higher of two options when wilds are involved. If two wilds on a line would pay more on their own than the combination they form with another symbol, you receive the wild payment instead. Likewise, if a longer line using a third symbol is worth more, that is what you get. In short, the game settles on the best available pay for each line.

The original notes also describe wild wins as stackable. They are not clear on how that plays out on the reels, so check the in-game help before relying on it.

Checking the paytable before you play

The old write-up for this ACE333 game does not give the line count, bet range or any free spin details, and we are not going to fill the gaps with guesses. Open the paytable and help screens first; they will show the symbol values and how many lines are in play.

Then pick a stake that keeps you spinning for a while. An expanding wild can make a single spin look big, but it lands at random like everything else.
