ANVIL LIFE ADDED CARD GAME AND THE CANDY VAULT
A new game mode, a revamped Card Table, a redesigned top menu, and several quality of life improvements.
========================================
THE CANDY VAULT
The Candy Vault is now open.
A brand-new tumble slot mode built around cascading wins, bombs, multipliers and free spins.
HOW IT WORKS
6 reels × 5 rows.
No paylines.
Match 8 or more of the same symbol anywhere on the grid to win.
Winning symbols disappear, everything above drops down, and new symbols fall in.
The tumble continues as long as you keep hitting wins.
Bombs can land with values from ×2 up to ×100.
Winning bombs are added together and applied to the total payout at the end of the tumble sequence.
========================================
FREE SPINS
Land 4, 5 or 6 Scatters to trigger 15 Free Spins.
4 Scatters → ×3
5 Scatters → ×5
6 Scatters → ×100
Land 3 more Scatters during Free Spins to get +5 additional spins.
During Free Spins, winning bombs build a global multiplier that stays active for the rest of the round.
This is where things can get very interesting.
========================================
ANTE BET & FEATURE BUY
ANTE BET
Pay +25% per spin to increase the frequency of Bonus triggers.
FEATURE BUY
Skip the wait and enter Free Spins directly for 105× your bet.
========================================
DEMO CHIPS
Want to try the Candy Vault without risking your Gold?
You can now play the entire mode using Demo Chips.
Start with 500,000 Demo Chips and use Top Up whenever you run out.
Same game. Same mechanics. No Gold at risk.
========================================
THE CARD TABLE RETURNS
The Card Table has been completely rebuilt.
The old elimination-style game is gone.
The new Card Table is a push-your-luck game where every successful round gives you a choice:
CASH OUT
Take your winnings and leave the table.
ONE MORE ROUND
Keep going for a bigger payout.
You start with 6 cards and have up to 4 rounds to survive.
The table reveals elemental combinations as the rounds progress.
In later rounds, you need a single card capable of beating both elements on the table.
Your playable cards are clearly highlighted, so you can see what you can play before making your decision.
Go deeper, increase the potential payout, or take the money and walk away.
The choice is yours.
========================================
THE NEW TOP MENU
The old 16-tab menu has been replaced.
Everything is now organized into five main sections.
BAG
Inventory, Vault, Sell, Dismantle and Recycling.
FORGE
Upgrade, Repair, Runes and Shop.
CREW
Characters and Companions.
CASINO
Card Table, Candy Vault and Demo.
GAME
Save, Guide and Balance.
Less menu hunting. More playing.
========================================
QUALITY OF LIFE
Turbo Mode added.
Auto-Spin added.
New host reactions based on how your Candy Vault round went.
Full Candy Vault Paytable added.
RTP information is now visible in the Paytable.
Demo Chips are now saved with your save code.
Master Mute setting is now saved with your save code.
Windows builds now include both Anvil Life.exe and AnvilLife.exe launch paths.
The build now refuses to complete if an image asset is missing or corrupted.
========================================
A NOTE ON THE CANDY VAULT
The Candy Vault is intentionally volatile.
You can hit a huge tumble, lose several spins in a row, or watch a promising run disappear completely.
That's part of the mode.
We'll be watching player feedback and continuing to tune the experience based on real gameplay.
========================================
THANK YOU
Bug reports, balance feedback and especially Candy Vault feedback are welcome.
Have fun.
And try not to lose the house's money.
