How Baba Yaga pays
The game runs on 6 reels of 4 rows, 24 positions in total.
Wins follow fixed patterns running across the reels, and a symbol only counts when it sits on an active line. The paytable lists every line the game uses, so a winning-looking screen can still pay nothing if the symbols fall off-line.
Long stretches without meaningful wins are normal, and most of the return is concentrated in the bonus round. The published return figure is a long-run average that individual sessions rarely resemble.
The ceiling is 9,696x the stake, so a $1 spin caps at $9,696.
Budget for 300 or more spins at a stake small enough to survive a dry run, since the base game alone will not sustain the balance.

What Baba Yaga actually does
Baba Yaga is tagged with 7 mechanics. Here is what each one means in play.
Free Spins
Free spins run without deducting from your balance, and the round usually carries a modification the base game does not have, such as added multipliers or extra wilds. The number awarded is normally tied to how many scatters landed to trigger it.
Buy Bonus
The buy option skips the wait for scatters by charging a fixed multiple of your stake to enter the bonus round directly, commonly between 60x and 100x. It is restricted or unavailable in several regulated markets, so the button may not appear depending on where you play.
Wild
A wild stands in for most paying symbols to complete a line that would otherwise fall short. It usually cannot replace scatters or bonus symbols, so it helps with regular wins rather than with triggering the bonus round.
Scatter
Scatter symbols count wherever they land, ignoring paylines and reel positions. In most games they are the trigger for free spins, and in some they also pay on their own.
Ante Bet
The ante option raises your stake by a set percentage, commonly 25 percent, in exchange for improved odds of triggering the bonus round. It changes the frequency of the trigger, not the size of what the bonus pays.
Jackpot
A jackpot sits outside the normal paytable and is awarded through its own trigger, often a dedicated symbol collection or a bonus wheel. Fixed jackpots pay a set amount, while progressive ones grow from a share of every stake until someone wins.
Big Symbols
Oversized symbols cover a block of positions and count as every position they occupy. A large symbol landing in the right place can carry a win on its own.
Setting and presentation
Horror. Gothic and supernatural imagery, typically paired with high volatility and a darker colour palette.
Halloween. Pumpkins, ghosts and costume imagery, typically lighter in tone than the horror tag.
Magic. Spells, potions and conjuring, where random modifiers are usually presented as magical intervention.

Set your stake
Use the stake control to pick a level you can repeat for a full session. In demo mode the credits are virtual, so treat the figure as a rehearsal for real stakes rather than a score.
