ACE65 The Great Icescape: Blockers, Respins and Coloured Symbols
The Great Icescape is a PG SOFT five-reel, five-row slot built around a visible set of twelve blockers. A qualifying winning combination awards a respin, and its winning symbols remove blockers before that respin begins.
Start with the twelve fixed blockers
At the start of the main game, twelve blockers occupy twelve fixed positions. On a main-game spin with one or more winning combinations, the game awards a respin. Before that next respin begins, each winning symbol in the combination destroys a blocker. The key thing to track is therefore both the win and the changing board: the same fixed positions are progressively cleared as eligible winning symbols appear.
A respin is not an extra life in the separate blocker-completion feature. The standard sequence is tied to a main-game win; blocker destruction modifies the board before the next respin. Keeping those events separate helps explain why a displayed win, a respin and a cleared blocker are related but not interchangeable.
How a chain develops
Imagine a main-game result with a qualifying winning combination. Under the stated rule, each winning symbol in that combination destroys a blocker, and the main-game win awards a respin. The qualifying combination is the condition; no fixed number of symbols or payout is implied. Read the following board state to see which fixed positions remain blocked.
The provider description ties blocker removal to the respin that follows an eligible win. It does not establish that partial blocker clearing carries over after that respin sequence ends, so explain progress only within the currently awarded sequence. A non-winning main-game result does not meet the stated condition for a respin.
Bonus Respin and colour collections
Destroying all twelve blockers triggers the Bonus Respin Feature, which the PG SOFT description says adds one extra life and a x2 multiplier. The game also sorts winning symbols by background colour: collecting ten blue-background winning symbols increases the multiplier, while ten purple-background winning symbols add an extra life. These are separate progress conditions from simply receiving one winning combination.
For a second example, suppose the colour counter shows nine blue symbols and later records another blue winning symbol. That reaches the stated ten-symbol threshold and increases the multiplier. If the next qualifying symbol is purple instead, the purple collection advances toward an extra life; it does not complete the blue count. The example explains the counters without assigning a cash value.
Read the feature state, not a promised outcome
When assessing a spin, note whether it produced a winning combination, whether a respin was awarded, how many blockers remain, and the separate blue and purple collection counts. Clearing blockers is a feature condition, not proof that a future spin will win. The supplier describes game mechanics; it does not make a particular session result certain.
