HOW TO PLAY AND WIN

Each Play has its own Play Number - this can be found on the Game outcome screen once the Game has been finished, in the “My Games” section of Your Account.

At the start of a Play, You are presented with a splash screen displaying the Game name, the messages 'WIN UP TO £1 MILLION, COMPLETE THESE TWO WORDS TO ACTIVATE x2 PRIZE DOUBLER!', 2 words with a green outline that will be different for each Play, a 'HOW TO PLAY' button and a 'PLAY' button. To the right on the splash screen is a circle with three silhouettes of plane symbols and the message 'COLLECT (3) plane TO ACTIVATE PRIZE SLIDER'. Below this is an example of the Prize Slider (the “Prize Table”).

On selecting the 'PLAY' button, You will be presented with the screen for the Main Game (the “Main Game”) (the “Main Game Play Window”).

On selecting the 'HOW TO PLAY' button, You will be presented with a panel with the heading 'HOW TO PLAY' (the “How To Play” screen) containing the following instructions:

'You have 18 PICKS.

Tap any of the 20 starfish icons to reveal YOUR LETTERS.

Prior to the reveal of LETTER, a plane may be revealed.

Each time a LETTER is revealed, the game will highlight the matched LETTER on the CROSSWORD GRID.

Complete words on the CROSSWORD GRID to win the corresponding prize in the PRIZE TABLE.'

On selecting the arrow to the right of the instructions, You will be presented with a second screen containing the following instructions:

'Complete the two DOUBLER words highlighted with a green outline on the CROSSWORD GRID to activate x2 PRIZE DOUBLER.'

On selecting the arrow to the right of the instructions, You will be presented with a third screen containing the following instructions:

'Reveal three plane to activate PRIZE SLIDER resulting in all prizes within the PRIZE TABLE (with the exception of the top prize) dropping down by one position.

Once achieved, the reveal of further plane will drop the prizes by one position again.'

You must select the 'X' in the top right corner of the How To Play screen to be taken to the Main Game Play Window.

The Main Game Play Window consists of a grid (the “Crossword Grid”) containing 15 words (the "Words", each a "Word"). Two Words in the Crossword Grid will be outlined by a green border (the “Prize Doubler Words”, each a "Prize Doubler Word"). Below the Crossword Grid is a panel which at the start of Your Play will be unfilled (the “Letters Trail”).

To the left of the Crossword Grid is a box labelled 'YOUR LETTERS' containing 20 starfish motifs (the “Your Letters Box”). Below the starfish motifs is a counter labelled '18 PICKS LEFT' (the “Letters Left Indicator”).

Above the Your Letters Box is a purple circle with three plane silhouettes inside. The circle has instructions that read:

'Collect (3) plane to activate PRIZE SLIDER'.

To the right of the Crossword Grid is a table consisting of two columns (one labelled 'WORDS' and the other labelled 'PRIZES') and 15 rows (the “Prize Table”). Each row in the column labelled 'WORDS' displays the number of Words You need to complete in the Crossword Grid to win the corresponding monetary amount for that row in the column labelled 'PRIZES'.

To start Your play of the Main Game, You must select a starfish motif from the Your Letters Box. On doing so, one of the following will happen:

  • – If You reveal a letter that also appears in a Word, or Words, in the Crossword Grid, that letter in the Your Letters Box will animate and the matching letter or letters in the Crossword Grid will also animate and highlight purple to indicate a match. The revealed letter will then disappear from the Your Letters Box and move to populate a box in the Letters Trail.
  • – If You reveal a letter that is not in a Word in the Crossword Grid, no letters in the Crossword Grid will highlight. The revealed letter will then disappear from the Your Letters Box and move to populate a box in the Letters Trail.
  • – If you reveal a plane symbol, that plane symbol will animate and move to populate one of the silhouettes in the purple circle above the Your Letters Box.

If during Your play of the Main Game, You reveal letters which complete one of the Words shown in the Crossword Grid, that Word will animate and highlight gold to indicate that You have completed that Word. For every Word You complete in the Crossword Grid, the row in the Prize Table that corresponds to the number of Words You have completed, will highlight to indicate how many Words You have completed and the corresponding monetary amount (if any) You have won. Note: Your Prize (if any) will be equal to the monetary amount shown on the row that is highlighted at the end of Your play of the Main Game, it will not be a sum of each row which may have been highlighted during Your play of the Main Game. If the row shows “-” at the end of Your play, You will not be entitled to a Prize.

Prize Doubler

If during Your play of the Main Game, You complete both of the Prize Doubler Words on the Crossword Grid, there will be a takeover screen that will read “PRIZE DOUBLER.” A x2 motif will then appear next to the monetary amount that is highlighted and has been won. At the end of the Play of the Game, once the monetary amount has been counted, the Prize amount won will be doubled and the end messaging will read “PRIZE DOUBLED”.

Activating the Prize Slider

If You reveal three plane symbols in the Your Letters Box and complete the 3 plane silhouettes, this will activate the prize slider mechanism of the Prize Table as described below (the “Prize Slider”).

The plane symbols will animate towards the Prize Table. The bottom row of the right column on the Prize Table will animate and disappear. The Prize Table will shift down and a new monetary amount will populate Row 14. Note: The £1,000,000 monetary amount on Row 15 will not be affected by the Prize Slider and will remain there for the entire Game. You can continue to reveal plane symbols in the Your Letters Box throughout Your play of the Main Game. Each time a new plane symbol is revealed, this will activate the Prize Slider and the Prize Table will animate and monetary amounts will shift down the Prize Table and a new monetary amount will populate Row 14 for every plane symbol revealed thereafter, with the exception of £1,000,000 monetary amount on Row 15.

You must continue to select starfish motifs in the Main Game until the Picks Left Indicator reaches '0'. A message will then appear with the monetary amount You have won as a Prize, if any. This will then appear to the left of the Crossword Grid and a 'FINISH' button will then appear below. You must select the 'FINISH' button to end Your Play of the Game.

If You have bought a Play of this Game and have completed the number of Words in the Crossword Grid required to win a Prize, You will, providing the requirements of these Procedures and the Rules are met, be entitled to the monetary amount shown in the Row highlighted white in the Prize Table (if any) and if applicable, multiplied by two if You activated the Prize Doubler during Your Play (the “Prize Amount”) as detailed in the table below:
