About Dolphin Treasure
Aristocrat set this pokie on an underwater coral reef, with a dolphin, a treasure chest and four sea creatures on the reels. The Dolphin Treasure pokie is a line game with one bonus feature, Free Games.
Base-game wins pay along active lines from left to right, starting on reel 1. The four sea-creature symbols pay for just 2 of a kind on a line, while the card ranks need three. A Dolphin Wild landing on reels 2 and 4 in the same spin awards 5 Free Games.
Theme & Visuals
Clownfish, Sea Turtle, Starfish and Seahorse are the four premium symbols. The card ranks A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9 fill the lower tier.
The Dolphin Wild and the Treasure Chest Scatter are drawn on solid tiles that fill the whole cell. They stand apart from the other symbols, so a Wild on reel 2 or reel 4 is easy to spot.
Dolphin Wild on Reels 2 and 4
The Dolphin is the only Wild in the game, and it lands on reels 2 and 4 only. It substitutes for the paying line symbols to complete the best combination and has no payout of its own. Every line win starts on the leftmost reel, so a Wild on reel 2 extends whatever sits on reel 1.
A Clownfish on reel 1 and a Dolphin on reel 2 on the same active line pay 5x line bet as 2 of a kind. Card ranks pay from 3 in a row, so in the base game they still need a matching symbol on reel 3.
A Wild anywhere on reel 2 plus a Wild anywhere on reel 4 in the same spin triggers Free Games. The pair need not share a payline. Autoplay can run UNTIL FEATURE, which keeps spinning until this Wild pair lands.
Free Games with Expanding Wild Reels
The round opens straight after the triggering spin with a CLICK TO START button and runs for 5 Free Games. Free Games cannot be retriggered, because reels 2 and 4 are already fully wild.
Wild Reels 2 and 4 for 5 Free Games
For all 5 games, reels 2 and 4 expand into full Wild reels. Each of their three positions substitutes for every symbol, including the Scatter. Only reels 1, 3 and 5 spin, five times, on the same lines and line bet as the triggering spin.
In the bonus, every active line already has two wild positions, so reels 1 and 3 decide the win. A premium symbol on reel 1 pays 2 of a kind on every active line that starts in its row.
If the same symbol sits on reel 3 of that line, the win jumps straight to 4 of a kind. A match on reel 5 as well makes it 5 of a kind. For the Clownfish that ladder reads 5x, 500x and 5,000x line bet.
Card ranks pay in the bonus only when reel 3 matches, starting from 4 of a kind. That tier pays 50x for A or K, 25x for Q or J and 20x for 10 or 9, all multiplied by the line bet.
Game Win, Feature Win and Total Win
Game Win on the closing board is the win from the triggering spin. Feature Win adds up all 5 Free Games, Scatter pays inside the round included.
Total Win is Game Win plus Feature Win. CONTINUE takes you back to the base game, and an Autoplay run with spins left carries on from there.
Treasure Chest Scatter Pays
The Treasure Chest is the Scatter and pays in any position, with no payline needed. Three, four or five chests pay 3x, 10x or 100x total bet, added to the line wins of the same spin. Chests play no part in the trigger, because only the Dolphin Wild starts Free Games.
In Free Games each expanded Wild reel counts as exactly one Scatter. Reels 2 and 4 already supply two, so one chest on reel 1, 3 or 5 makes three for 3x total bet. Two chests make four for 10x, and three chests make five for 100x.
| Scatter count | Pays (x total bet) | At A$0.20 total bet |
|---|---|---|
| 3 | 3x | A$0.60 |
| 4 | 10x | A$2.00 |
| 5 | 100x | A$20.00 |
Dolphin Treasure Paytable
Line wins pay the line bet times the symbol's multiplier, left to right from reel 1 on adjacent reels. Only the highest win per line pays, and wins on separate lines add together.
Premium symbols pay from 2 of a kind and card ranks from 3. AUD amounts use the demo default of A$0.01 per line, which is A$0.20 total on 20 lines.

Volatility is rated Medium-High and the maximum win is 3,000x. The biggest wins cluster in Free Games, where two of the five reels are fully wild.
- Set the stake you want for the bonus before it lands. Free Games play at the lines and line bet of the triggering spin.

AUD Payment Methods for Australian Players
Line bets start at A$0.01, so a small balance is enough to play. Check which methods accept small deposits and which can also pay out.
A Dolphin Treasure casino that accepts PayID lets you fund the account from your bank app with a phone number or e-mail. Neosurf vouchers are bought with cash. Australian law bans credit cards for online wagering, so card payments mean debit Visa or Mastercard.

| Neosurf | Prepaid voucher | Yes | Deposits only |

| Bank transfer (BSB + account) | Bank transfer | Yes | Yes, where the casino supports it |
Withdrawal speed depends on how quickly the casino completes its account verification (KYC).

FAQ
A Dolphin Wild on reel 2 and another on reel 4 in the same spin start the round. Both can sit in any row, and the reward is 5 Free Games with the two reels fully wild.
No. Reels 2 and 4 stay fully wild for all 5 games, so a fresh Wild pair cannot land and the round always ends after five.
The Dolphin has no payout of its own. It only substitutes to complete line wins, and it appears on reels 2 and 4 alone.
Each expanded Wild reel counts as one Scatter, so reels 2 and 4 already add two to the count. One chest on reel 1, 3 or 5 then pays 3x total bet, two pay 10x and three pay 100x.
Clownfish, Sea Turtle, Starfish and Seahorse pay for 2 of a kind on a line. The Clownfish tops that tier at 5x line bet, which is A$0.05 at a line bet of A$0.01.
Log back into the casino and the game resumes from the point where it broke, inside Free Games too. Wins already landed are always paid.
The online release returns 95.23%, and a pub or club cabinet of the same title can run at a different return. Volatility is Medium-High, with a maximum win of 3,000x.
