What Overlay is

Overlay is the first layer in the file and the most literal one. Each round builds two layers. The back layer is an ordinary five-by-three set of reels with six glass shapes and a clear WILD pane. Then a sheet of glass slides over it: roughly three cells in ten get a glass tile carrying a shape of its own, and that tile hides whatever was underneath. You see, and the lines read, the stack as it ends up.

Ten fixed lines are read from the left reel. Three, four or five matching shapes in a row return a multiple of the line stake, and the WILD pane stands in for any shape. The twist is the glass: every glass tile inside the counted run adds half the line's value again, so a run of four with two glass tiles in it pays twice its plain value.

There are no extra spins, no features to unlock and nothing that carries over. Each round is two layers, a count and done.

Playing a round

1. Pick a stake of 5, 15, 25, 75 or 150 px. It is shared equally across the ten lines.
2. Press Stack the layers. The back reels land first, then the glass tiles settle on top.
3. Every line is read from the left reel on the finished stack; glass in a counted run adds half again per tile.
4. Lit cells show which tiles counted; the status line names each line and its multiple.

Paytable

What each result returns. Multiply by your stake, or by the line or column stake where the table says so. The table is printed from the file the game reads.

Fair play

Every shape, picture, card, die and token is drawn by your browser's cryptographic random source at the moment you press the button. Nothing adapts to you, to your pixels or to how long you have played, and no round remembers another. The paytable on this page is printed from the same data file the game reads. Pixels carry no cash value, cannot be bought, and there is nothing on the site to spend them on.
