Gift Rush Merge Up Base GameplayMerge Up and Growing Cell Multipliers
The Merge Up mechanic forms winning clusters from four or more adjacent matching ornaments. After a win, some symbols disappear while others advance to the next level, creating opportunities for new combinations. The game features nine main symbol levels, with higher-level ornaments offering more valuable wins.
Cell Multipliers add another layer to these transformations. Positions involved in winning clusters become marked, and subsequent wins on those cells increase their multipliers from 2x through successive doublings, reaching up to 128x. When multiple multiplied cells contribute to the same cluster, their values are added together.
Gift Boxes and Free Spins
Gift Boxes appear when a winning cluster of eighth-level symbols forms. Opening a Gift Box removes the eight surrounding symbols, upgrades the affected Cell Multipliers and transforms the box into a Scatter.
Collecting three or more Scatters activates Free Spins, with larger Scatter combinations awarding more spins. During the bonus, Cell Multipliers remain sticky and continue growing across successive spins, allowing earlier upgrades to contribute to later winning clusters. Additional Scatters can extend the feature.
