Sanatorium Secrets
Sanatorium Secrets by Pragmatic Play opens the gates to a decaying institution where almost every important mechanic revolves around Wild creation and multiplier growth. Full reel Wilds can arrive with multipliers, Hooks can transform entire rows of premium symbols, and every bonus begins with a separate Puzzle Feature that determines how powerful the following Free Spins can become. The game is played on six reels and four rows with 4096 ways to win. Matching symbols must appear on adjacent reels from left to right, beginning with the first reel. Their vertical positions do not need to match. The regular paytable includes distressed card ranks and several unsettling characters from the sanatorium. The darker character symbols provide the strongest standard payouts and also interact directly with the Hook mechanic. Sanatorium Secrets contains several Wild formats rather than one conventional substitute. The smallest versions are 1 by 1 Wilds, which are normally created by Hooks or prepared during the Puzzle Feature. The 1 by 4 Expanding Wild can land on reels two, three, four or five. It covers every position on its reel and can carry a multiplier of 4x or 8x. Its value applies to all qualifying wins that use the Wild. The larger 2 by 4 Fiery Wild covers both reels three and four. It can arrive with a multiplier ranging from 8x to 64x, giving one symbol enough coverage to influence a substantial part of the grid. When more than one Multiplier Wild contributes to the same winning combination, their values are added together. A win using a 4x Wild and an 8x Wild therefore receives a combined multiplier of 12x. Hooks appear on the first and sixth reels. When one lands, it targets every premium symbol positioned on the same horizontal row across the grid. The selected premium symbols transform into 1 by 1 Wilds. The Hook then changes into the same premium symbol, helping the row form a larger ways win while leaving Wilds behind in the affected positions. When a Hook passes across an existing Wild, that Wild multiplier doubles. This interaction applies to the expanding Wild formats and to individual Wilds created through the feature system, making Hook placement particularly important when strong values are already present. Scatter symbols appear on reels two through five. Landing three Scatters triggers six Free Spins. Every Scatter beyond the third adds two more spins, so four Scatters award eight spins and five Scatters award ten. A separate Super Scatter can appear on reel six. Landing it alongside at least three regular Scatters activates Super Free Spins instead of the normal version. Before either feature begins, the game enters the Puzzle Feature. This is a respin round played across the four centre reels, where puzzle pieces lock into position as they land. Every new puzzle piece resets the remaining respins and adds one extra Free Spin to the upcoming feature. Filling more positions therefore improves both the preparation phase and the eventual duration of the bonus. Completing every puzzle position across reels two through five immediately awards the maximum win of 10000 times the stake. The bonus ends as soon as this full puzzle condition is achieved. Completing an entire reel during the Puzzle Feature upgrades the premium symbol displayed above that reel into a Wild symbol for the following Free Spins. The affected premium symbol can then appear as a 1 by 1 Wild across that reel during the bonus. Puzzle pieces can also improve the minimum multiplier available on the 1 by 4 Expanding Wilds. Any resulting upgrade carries into the Free Spins round, preventing those Wilds from appearing below the multiplier level established during the Puzzle Feature. Hooks may also be collected during the Puzzle stage. Each collected Hook appears in a random position during every subsequent Free Spin, giving the feature a recurring source of premium symbol transformations and multiplier doubling. Super Free Spins guarantee two Hooks during both the Puzzle Feature and the Free Spins that follow. This is the main advantage of the enhanced trigger, as every spin begins with more opportunities to create individual Wilds and improve existing multiplier values. The feature starts with the number of spins awarded by the triggering Scatters, plus any additional rounds earned through puzzle pieces. Multiplier Wilds, Hooks and the premium symbols upgraded during the Puzzle Feature remain central throughout the bonus. Sanatorium Secrets offers a Bonus Bet option in eligible markets. It costs twice the standard stake and makes the Free Spins feature four times more likely to trigger. Two Feature Buy options may also be available. The first costs 75 times the stake and randomly awards either regular Free Spins or Super Free Spins. The second costs 150 times the stake and guarantees the Super Free Spins version. The default RTP is 96.47 percent, although reduced settings may be used by individual casinos. Sanatorium Secrets has medium volatility and a maximum payout of 10000 times the stake. The presentation supports the mechanics with a genuinely oppressive setting. The abandoned building looms behind the reels, the character designs resemble patients and staff trapped inside its history, and the environment becomes more destructive as the bonus develops. Sanatorium Secrets succeeds because its two feature stages are directly connected. The Puzzle Feature does not simply delay the Free Spins. It increases their duration, prepares recurring Hooks, creates potential Wild symbols and improves the multiplier values that can appear later. By the time the main bonus starts, its strength has already been shaped by everything uncovered during the respins.
