A 6x4 grid with 4096 ways to win forms the base of Zombie Carnival. The carnival theme runs into horror and zombies, and the symbols follow it: four zombie characters and four card symbols, A, K, Q and J. A win needs matching symbols on at least three consecutive reels, counted from the left. Mystery symbols change into one random regular symbol at the end of every spin.
Six free spins start the bonus, triggered by two or more Scatter symbols on reels 2 to 5. Trigger Scatters become fixed WILDs at 1x. Each extra Scatter adds a spin, and the nearest WILD absorbs it and gains 1x. WILDs stay in place all round. When several land in one win, their multipliers multiply. The base game has no WILD.
80 times the bet costs A$160 at the A$2 example bet, and it starts the Free Spins round straight away.

Zombie Carnival in play
Most worries come from not knowing what a round does, so each step is set out here.
Set a stake from A$0.20 up to A$100 before the first spin. The paytable reference bet is A$0.50, and A$2 is the top example bet.
The 6x4 grid pays on 4096 ways, so a win forms when matching symbols land on neighbouring reels from left to right. Three matching symbols is the fewest that pay.
Mystery symbols change at the end of every spin into one random paying symbol from eight regular symbols. No Wild appears in the base game.
Two or more Scatters on reels 2 to 5 start Free Spins with 6 spins. Those Scatters stay on the grid as fixed Wilds at 1x.
Fix a spending limit before the first spin, since no session result can be known in advance. The National Gambling Helpline is 1800 858 858.

Zombie Carnival bonus
After this section you will know how each mode starts and what it gives you.
The round starts with 6 spins when 2 or more Scatters land on reels 2 to 5. Trigger Scatters become fixed Wilds at 1x. Each extra Scatter adds 1 spin, and the nearest Wild absorbs it and gains 1x. Wilds stay for the whole round.
Base Game spinsExtra spins
The 6x4 grid has 4096 ways, paying left to right. Mystery symbols change at the end of every spin into the same random paying symbol, chosen from 8 regular symbols. Wilds do not appear in the base game.
Placing a betRegular wins
6 starting spins open the Free Spins round, but how often that round arrives is not known in advance. Each spin is random, so the result of one session is random too, whatever the 96.50 RTP says about a very long run. One session may reach the bonus early and another may never reach it at all.
96.50 is the only RTP version listed for Zombie Carnival. Only the game rules state which version Winspirit Casino runs, so read them before the first spin. Until the rules confirm the version, treat the 96.50 figure as the one listed for the game and nothing more.
x5,000 of the stake is the ceiling of Zombie Carnival. At the A$2 top bet on this page that is A$10,000, and at the A$100 maximum bet it is A$500,000. A win at the ceiling is reached very rarely, and no session can be planned around it.
Know before spinning
Useful when you want the RTP, bet range and free spins sorted before your first spin.
Zombie Carnival has one RTP version, 96.50 percent. On A$100 staked, the expected return is shown in the RTP table on this page. RTP is a long-run average across many spins, so it does not predict any single session.
Zombie Carnival accepts bets from A$0.20 to A$100 per spin. The examples on this page use A$0.50, A$1 and A$2, which are not the limits of the game. Higher bets scale the same way.
The maximum win of Zombie Carnival is x5,000 times the bet. At the A$2 example bet that comes to A$10,000, and at the A$100 maximum bet it reaches A$500,000. Reaching it cannot be predicted before a session starts.
Zombie Carnival's paytable and modes are laid out on this page before any real money is staked. Read the rules first, then pick a bet from A$0.20 upward.
Free spins start when two or more Scatter symbols land on reels 2 to 5. The round starts with 6 spins, and each extra Scatter during the round adds one more spin.
The volatility of Zombie Carnival is high, meaning results swing more widely between small and large wins. How often the free spins come, and how a session ends, cannot be known in advance.
This page is for players 18+. Help is available from the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, and BetStop is the national self-exclusion register.
Decide how much you can lose on Zombie Carnival before the first spin, and keep that amount separate from money needed for bills.
Pick the number of spins or the time you will stop before you start, and keep to it even when a win lands on the reels.
Set deposit and loss limits in your account before you play, so the cap is active when the reels start turning.
