Every puppet hides a multiplier. Burn the strings and it walks.
Cut the strings,free the fortune.
1,024 ways across a 5×4 stage, and every marionette on it is a hidden multiplier waiting for its strings to burn. The mechanic is one sentence long and the ceiling is six figures.
The puppets land bound
Up to five marionettes on the board at once, each held by three strings, each hiding a multiplier between 2× and 1,000×. While the strings hold, the multiplier stays hidden — a puppet on the board is a promise, not a payout.
The flames burn the strings
Every flame symbol burns one string from a bound puppet. Three burns and the puppet is free: its multiplier is revealed and applied to every way it touches. In free spins a freed puppet starts to walk the reels, carrying its multiplier with it.
The theatre compounds
Multipliers on the same reel add. Multipliers on different reels multiply each other — exactly, every way paying the product of its reels. Two freed puppets on opposite sides of the board is how a 5×4 grid reaches 100,000×.
His gloved hand intervenes when the show needs an ending
Same reel adds. Different reels multiply.
That one rule is the whole economy. A 10× and a 50× on the same reel make 60×. Put them on different reels and every way that crosses both pays 500×. The multiplier table runs to 1,000× a puppet — and the compounding is why the cap sits at 100,000× rather than a rounder, smaller number.
Three tiers of showtime.
3 scatters
Bonus
10 free spins
The curtain rises. Puppets persist between spins; the flames do their work.
4 scatters
Super
12 free spins
A fuller cast and hungrier flames. The show the 400× buy opens directly.
5 scatters
Epic
15 free spins
A global multiplier equal to the number of the free spin, applied to every win — spin fifteen pays fifteen-fold before the puppets even speak.
Retrigger: three or more scatters during any tier add five spins. The Epic tier’s global multiplier keeps climbing through every one of them.
Four seats in the house.
The Mystery Buy is the theatre’s own wager: most nights it opens the Bonus, one night in twenty it opens the Epic — and some nights the curtain never rises at all. The odds are printed in the rules screen, exactly.

Strings of Fortune is in production. Every figure here is measured from the current verification build and re-measured on every regeneration of the books — stated ahead of certification, not in place of it.
The theatre is honest in the old way: the outcome of a round is settled before the curtain moves, the puppets only ever perform what the record already says, and a replay is the round itself — not a re-enactment.
The curtain holds.
Strings of Fortune opens when the build says it opens. Two more worlds are waiting in the meantime — one submitted, one burning.
