Rockin Olives


 Aristocrat Gaming: Godard's Rockin' Olives

The game offers two 22-inch HD widescreen monitors housed in Aristocrat's Verve HD cabinet which is designed to provide the most ergonomically comfortable playing experience.  The monitor is tilted slightly forward resulting in brighter and sharper colors and because the screen is directly in the player's line of sight, it greatly reduces the "slot machine slump" that players often suffer from.  The game also offers 3D panoramic digital audio that is fully adjustable by the player.

Base Game

In the base game, the olive symbol is wild and substitutes for all symbols except for the dice.  When one or more olive symbols substitute for another symbol in a win, the pay for that win is doubled.

During the base game, the Morph and the Multiplier feature can be triggered at random
  • In the Morph feature, one of the symbols morphs into the olive resulting in a wild
  • In the Multiplier feature, all regular wins are multiplied by 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 8x, or 10x
