Octopays Slot

CND illustrated guide explaining a guide

Octopays is a Microgaming slot. This guide explains the features and selected awards visible in its original game screens, with references you can enlarge to inspect the rules.

Octopays screenshots

Original game imagery from our sister site KeyToCasinos. Screens and displayed rules checked on 6 October 2026. These are historical interfaces; operator branding and older controls do not establish current availability.

How Octopays works

Kraken feature symbols on reels 2 and 4 award 12 free spins. At the start of each spin, the Kraken can place up to four octopus substitutes on any reel except reel 3. When the pictured special symbol lands, winning octopus substitutes ink themselves; wins containing an inked substitute are doubled. All added octopuses leave at the end of each free spin.

These provider listings do not confirm that Octopays is currently offered. Check the exact game and access from your location with the operator.

Rules and payout examples

The examples below were checked against the original screens above. They are selected conditions, not a complete paytable or a promise about a current release.

Read the award unit and any bet-setting condition together. Free spins count game rounds; a win multiplier applies to the specified win; a displayed paytable number is not automatically a multiple of the full spin stake. The exact in-game help governs how line bets, coin value and feature modifiers combine.

Edition and availability

This reference covers Octopays, not a sequel or another provider’s similarly named game. The historical interface may show controls or stake settings that are no longer offered. It does not verify a current RTP, operating limit or maximum cash prize. Consult the version you are using for those details.
