Initially, calculating payouts in Gluttony may seem confusing, but I recommend letting the game handle it for you and simply enjoying the experience. Thankfully, Nolimit City is a trustworthy developer, so there's no need to worry. Let's take a look at the base payouts: A full payway of five pizza symbols pays 10 times the bet, while the hamburger is worth 6 times, mac 'n' cheese is valued at 4 times, dessert rewards 3 times, and a pint of beer is the lowest at just 2 times for all five symbols.

As for the lower-paying symbols, don't expect to see the typical royal cards. Instead, blocks of cheese, plates of vegetables, sushi, salmon, and even another potato and cheese salad represent the lower-paying symbols. These symbols offer varying payouts ranging from 1.2 times to 0.4 times, with the cheese symbol being the highest and the edam salad symbol being the lowest.

When it comes to betting ranges, Gluttony offers plenty of options. The minimum permitted wager is €0.20, while the maximum is €100.00 per spin. Rest assured, there are intermediate bet sizes available to cater to players with different bankrolls.

Now let's delve into the gameplay mechanics, starting with a 5x5 playfield that offers 3,125 payways. This means that every possible path from left to right is active for potential prizes. It's a double-edged sword, though, as frequent wins are likely, but don't expect all of them to be substantial.

When a winning combination is removed from the reels, the symbols involved are destroyed, and the remaining symbols cascade down to fill the empty spaces. During this process, any symbol that drops down will double in value. For example, the pizza symbol, normally worth 10x for a payline, will suddenly be worth 20x instead!

Gluttony features two types of bonus scatter symbols: silver bells and golden bells. Silver bells can appear on reels two, three, and four, while gold bells can only land on reel three, with a maximum of one per spin. Free spins can be triggered by any combination of three scatter symbols.

Depending on the combination of triggering scatters, you'll experience slightly different variations of the typical bonus round:

3x Silver Bells: Eight free spins of 'Order Up!'

1x Gold Bell + 2x Silver Bells: Ten free spins of 'Double Up!'

2x Gold Bells + 1x Silver Bell: Twelve free spins of 'Triple Up!'

3x Gold Bells: This combination is only possible after triggering one of the other features, as the golden bell only appears on the third reel. It adds six additional spins of 'Quadruple Up!' and activates a 4x multiplier. Talk about gluttony!

During the 'Order Up!' free spins, every golden bell that lands will add two more free spins and increase the global multiplier by 2x.

The 'Double Up!' free spins function similarly, but you start with ten free spins and a 2x multiplier right from the beginning. With one golden bell in your arsenal, you only need two more to trigger the legendary 'FEDCON 1' free spins!

Likewise, the 'Quadruple Up!' free spins offer 12 initial free spins with a 4x multiplier. With just one more golden bell, you can initiate 'FEDCON 1' mode.

When a golden bell lands on reel three, you'll receive two free re-spins with a 2x multiplier. If another golden bell appears during either of these spins, you'll be granted two additional re-spins and the multiplier will increase to 4x. And if a third golden bell lands, you'll unlock the highly coveted FEDCON 1 mode!

By collecting three golden bells in any of the previous free spin modes, you will activate the esteemed FEDCON 1 mode. This is a clever nod by Nolimit City, as popular culture often misrepresents DEFCON 1 as the highest level of alertness, when in reality, DEFCON 1 signifies the most critical state of readiness.

In FEDCON 1, which stands for FEED CONDITION 1, golden bells can land on all four of the first four reels. Furthermore, they will collect all the food symbols on the connected outer reel, preventing the greedy character from devouring all the grub before you can claim it for your prize money!
