The Game
The object of the game is to win as much money as possible. You are given one pound at the start of the game - the rest is up to you!
Light up the "CASHBACK" letters by collecting fruits with numbers on them. A "FEATURE HOLD" will leave them lit for the next spin. A question mark will give you a "SKILL" or a "CHANCE" option, to fill up all the letters. Once the letters are all lit, move onto the following special features:
