The mathematics are often modified during free spins, via extra wilds, increased multipliers or an expanded grid, and scatters are the usual trigger. Because of this mechanism, return commonly sits in the free-spin round instead of the base game, which is why long flat runs happen in base spins on feature-heavy titles.
Using it in practice
Often it is the game’s design, and not a bad run, that makes base spins feel flat. To judge what a fair test of a title looks like, you need to know whether it concentrates its return in a feature round. It lands more easily next to wagering requirement explained, which tend to show up in the same set of terms.
Across the game pages on this site you will meet Free spins, and whenever the studio keeps the figure behind it private, the page tells you so in place of lifting a number off a comparison site. Because of that, you will find blanks in several spec tables here.
The common misreading
Sharing a name does not make free spins that an operator awards as a promotion the same as an in-game free-spin round. Think of the first as carrying the operator’s wagering terms, usually with no withdrawal until those are met, and the second as game content that is paid into the balance as any other win is.
What an operator grants or withholds is a promotional bonus, which an in-game free-spin round is not, and it also has no wagering requirement. As part of the game’s own mathematics, it is something the studio sets.
A worked example
Several hundred times the stake can come back across 10 free spins from a game that pays very little over 100 spins in the base game, when much of its return sits in the feature round. Nothing has malfunctioned in either half. Getting to the feature is the base game’s job here, which means a judgement made before then covers half the game.
