How to Play Elements of Power
Six steps from your first spin to the 1,206x cap. Build elemental progress bars, manage the Joker/Skull tension, decide when to cash out.
Set Your Bet
Open Elements of Power and adjust your stake between $0.10 and $100. Medium-Low volatility means relatively steady wins from progress bar accumulation. Strategic Cashout decisions affect realized variance — conservative play produces lower variance, aggressive play higher. Same RTP across all play styles; choose your session shape.
Spin the Single Reel
Hit spin or use Turbo Mode for accelerated rounds. Elements of Power's 1 Reel (expands to 1x3 in bonus) format means each spin reveals a single symbol. Wins resolve through Single Line per-symbol evaluation rather than line-based math. Watch for elemental symbols (Fire, Earth, Water) and the special Joker/Skull symbols.
Build Elemental Progress Bars
Three circular progress bars surround the reel — Fire, Earth, and Water. Collect matching symbols to fill each bar. When any bar fills completely, the Bonus Round triggers with enhanced multipliers. Different elements may carry different multiplier ranges — Fire typically most volatile, Water most steady, Earth in between.
Manage Joker / Skull Tension
Joker symbol fills ALL three progress bars simultaneously — pure adrenaline, immediate Bonus Round trigger. Skull pushes ALL three bars back one step — the villain reset. The tension between these two symbols drives every spin's strategic calculation. Skull landings ~1 in 100 spins demand cashout decisions on accumulated progress.
Decide When to Cash Out
Elements of Power's defining mechanic. The Cashout button is always available — full or partial. The risk-reward balance is yours. Push further for bigger multipliers or lock in safe profits before the Skull resets your progress. Each spin is a decision: cash out now or push toward filling a bar. Strategic agency distinguishes Elements of Power from passive slot mechanics.
Trigger the Bonus Round 1×3 Grid
Once a progress bar fills, the game transforms from a single reel into a 1×3 expanded grid with multipliers reaching 999x. All three elements active means maximum multiplier potential. Bonus Buy where available costs 100x (avg return ~~70x, RTP 97.00%). The buy maintains full 97% RTP — closer to break-even than typical slot buys. UK and Sweden block Bonus Buy by regulation.
Symbol Paytable
Premium icons (Joker, themed elemental icons) carry the highest values; mid-tier elemental tokens (Fire, Earth, Water) contribute to progress bars while paying small base values; lower-pay symbols fill the bottom on the single-reel format.
Bonus Features Explained
Each feature plays differently. Here's what actually happens — no marketing fluff.
Elemental Progress Bars

Strategic Cashout
Cash out your accumulated winnings at any point — full or partial. The risk-reward balance is yours to control. Push further for bigger multipliers or lock in safe profits before the Skull drags you back.
Bonus Round (1x3 Grid)
Once a progress bar fills, the game transforms into a 1x3 reel format. Multipliers in the bonus can reach 999x. All three elements active means maximum multiplier potential.
Joker & Skull Symbols
Joker is your best friend — it fills ALL three progress bars simultaneously. Skull is the villain — it pushes ALL bars back one step. The tension between these two symbols drives every spin.
Quick Strategy Tips
Bankroll first. Medium-Low volatility produces relatively steady wins. Strategic Cashout decisions affect realized variance — conservative play produces lower variance with smaller bankroll requirement; aggressive bar-pushing demands larger runway. Budget at least 200 spins at your chosen bet level. If you're playing at $0.10, that's a $20 session budget for conservative play.
Know the RTP. At 97.00%, Elements of Power returns well above industry average. The 97% RTP is among BGaming's most generous configurations. Some operators may run lower variants — verify in the game info screen before spinning.
Cashout strategy matters. Each spin presents a decision: cash out current accumulated progress (safe profit), or spin again hoping to fill a bar (bigger payout). Conservative cashout patterns at modest progress levels (2-3 bar fills) produce lower variance with steady RTP. Aggressive bar-pushing toward complete fill produces high-variance sessions with same theoretical RTP. The choice depends on session goals — long sessions favor conservative play; jackpot-chase sessions favor pushing.
Watch the Skull. Skull landings (~1 in 100 spins) push ALL three progress bars back one step. If you're close to filling a bar, the next Skull resets your progress one step from completion. The risk-management decision is constant — push for bigger multiplier or lock in cashout before the inevitable Skull. The Joker counters by filling all three bars simultaneously (~1 in 250 spins), but Joker landings are rare. Net Skull/Joker math favors Skull events; cashout discipline matters.
