This game is also known as "Magic Garden".

- UPDATES -

When you get a win with the Tree Eyes it displays ***ENCHANTED PAY*** on the screen. The asterisks are removed on the later versions.

Early MKV editions had a blue reel background similar to "Phantom Pays". Later versions had a light yellow reel background.

- SCORING -

All pays are left to right, except scattered Magic Mushrooms which pay any.

Tree Eyes appear in reels 2, 3 and 4 and substitute for all symbols in all positions of that reel, and in one position for scattered Magic Mushrooms.

- TIPS AND TRICKS -

Tree Eyes substitute for all symbols, but unlike most games, wins with Tree Eyes are added to existing wins:

If Tree Eyes occur simultaneously with a natural win on a payline the win will be paid twice. For example, if 3 Jacks are on payline 1 and there is also the Tree Eyes symbol on reel 3 above or below the Jack, it will pay the 3x Jack win as well as the 3x Jack win with the Tree Eyes. The same applies if two or three Tree Eyes appear, as long as the same symbols are on the payline on the same reels as the Tree Eyes.

Double Up Feature : When a win comes up, you are given the chance to bet on the credits you've just won.
If you select the right colour (Red or Black), your win is doubled. If you select the wrong item, you lose the gamble and it goes back to the main game.
You can take a win at any time, but if you win 5 times in the one gamble feature, the game ends automatically.
