Laura Loot and the multiplier map

BGaming released Treasure Explorer on January 8, 2026. The official profile lists 25 paylines, medium-high volatility, 97.07% RTP and a maximum multiplier of 5000x. Laura Loot leads the Aztec expedition, with a parchment progress map above the reels. The setting provides a clear visual theme, while the actual decision for a reader is whether a cascade slot with an accumulating bonus map suits their preferred style.

Winning symbols pay on lines and disappear, the remaining symbols drop and new ones fill the gaps. Further valid wins repeat that refilling process within the same spin. A new fill is therefore part of the ongoing spin rather than a separate paid spin automatically taken from the balance. When the sequence stops producing wins, the game completes that spin's result.

Every separate win advances the progress map, beginning at 2x and increasing by one step. The main-game limit is 10x. BGaming says the final map multiplier is applied to the spin's win after its refills have finished, and the map resets at the beginning of the next spin. The displayed steps should not be added together as though each marker were another independent multiplier prize.

Free spins turn the map into lasting progress

Three, four or five Scatters trigger eight, ten or twelve free spins respectively. Scatters may appear anywhere on the reels, and ordinary Wilds substitute to complete paying combinations. The official trigger image later in this review shows five Scatters, illustrating the largest of those three starting allocations. It is a trigger screen, not a claim that a free-spins round is already running in that image.

During the bonus, the map extends to 25x and its value remains between spins. Progress is no longer discarded at the end of each spin, making several winning sequences contribute to the same feature. This is the important distinction from ordinary play: reaching a level can affect later bonus spins as well as the current sequence.

The dedicated feature descriptions identify Wild Spot rewards at 5x, 15x and 25x. They apply to the first win of a spin, disappear while leaving their cells marked, and return to the same cells for the next spin. Reaching 10x and 20x awards two additional free spins at each of those milestones. The rewards are tied to reaching the relevant map levels, rather than to every appearance of a Wild symbol.

These details make the map worth watching, but a milestone is not promised on every bonus. The main-game 10x map ceiling, bonus 25x map ceiling and overall 5000x maximum multiplier describe different things. Neither map value should be presented as the full game's highest possible payout.

Chance, bonus purchases and our verdict

The Buy Bonus menu offers standard free spins and a Super Bonus. BGaming describes the latter as entering with the map already at 10x and the 5x and 10x milestones activated. It therefore changes the starting conditions, rather than promising to reach the final milestone or cover the purchase cost. The menu also offers Chance x2, which doubles the chance of landing a Scatter in ordinary play.

The chance setting is not a promise to double the entire game's RTP or the value of every win. The current profile does not establish a universal stake uplift or fixed purchase prices in its explanatory text, so the live menu remains the place to read the actual cost before confirming an option. Promotional screenshots illustrate interfaces and should not be treated as a price list for every configuration.

The 97.07% return and medium-high volatility are the current publisher profile figures. They are not a separate verified RTP schedule for each purchase choice, and they cannot predict a short-session balance. Our verdict is that Treasure Explorer works best for readers who enjoy clear progress with a meaningful difference between base and bonus play. The map and recurring Wild Spots give the adventure substance beyond its artwork. Choose it for that structure, keeping purchases optional and the total entertainment budget fixed rather than chasing the next chest.
