Dazzle Me is a NetEnt gem slot from 2015 with an unusual grid. Its five reels step up from three rows on the left to five on the right, carrying 76 fixed lines. Two features do the work. In the main game, one to five reels can turn wild at random. Three or more Free Spins symbols start 8, 12 or 16 free spins, and on every one of them a reel copies its neighbour.
RTP (return to player): the share of bets the game pays back over time, as NetEnt publishes it.

Where Dazzle Me comes from
NetEnt released Dazzle Me on 24 August 2015. The name later passed to two separate games, Dazzle Me Megaways and Dazzle Me Christmas, each with its own page and figures. This page covers the 2015 original, and a tile carrying either longer name is a different game.
How Dazzle Me works
The reels are not the same height: reels 1 and 2 show three symbols, reels 3 and 4 show four and reel 5 shows five, 19 positions in all. All 76 lines are fixed and play on every spin. A line pays when matching symbols run from the leftmost reel without a gap, and each line pays only its highest win.
The paytable holds a red seven, a gold bell and four gems in red, purple, green and blue. A diamond is the wild, and a tile reading Free Spins is the scatter. Paytable values change with your stake. There is no feature buy.
The grid, reel by reel
Any reel can become a Dazzling Wild Reel in the main game. Linked Reels use only the first four.
| Reel | Rows | In free spins |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 3 | Can be linked to reel 2 |
| 2 | 3 | Copies reel 1 when linked |
| 3 | 4 | Can be linked to reel 4 |
| 4 | 4 | Copies reel 3 when linked |
| 5 | 5 | Never linked |
Dazzling Wild Reels: whole reels of wilds
The main game's feature arrives at random and cannot be bought. Wilds cover an entire reel, on anywhere from one reel to all five.
The wild stands in for every symbol except the scatter, and a line holding wilds pays the best combination it can form.
Every one of the 76 lines crosses every reel once, so a full wild reel sits on all 76 lines at the same time. A wild reel 1 starts every line with a wild, and a wild reel 5 carries any run that reaches reel 4 to the full five.
Free spins per number of scatters
In the main game the symbols can land anywhere on the reels.
| Free Spins symbols | Free spins |
|---|---|
| 3 | 8 |
| 4 | 12 |
| 5 | 16 |
Free spins: a linked pair on every spin
At the start of each free spin, reels 1 and 2, reels 3 and 4, or both pairs are linked. The right reel of a pair becomes an identical copy of the left. 'Each spin during Free Spins has Linked Reels.' Reel 5 is never linked.
The copy is symbol for symbol and row for row, so a line that keeps its row across a linked pair meets the same symbol twice. Linked reels 1 and 2 give such a line a matching start. Linked reels 3 and 4 help only a line whose run already reaches reel 3.
Scatters do not appear during free spins, so the round cannot be extended. The spins use the stake that triggered them, and their total is added to that spin's win.

What the numbers say about a session
NetEnt gives a hit frequency of 19%: a little under one spin in five pays something. The figure counts how often spins pay, not how much.
The two official sites label volatility differently: NetEnt shows medium, the label this page uses, and Evolution's games site says low. Evolution also gives the return as 96.90%, against NetEnt's 96.91%. The game's own help states the return of the version you open.

Pros, cons and verdict
- Up to five reels can turn wild at random, each on all 76 lines
- Every free spin has at least one linked pair of reels
- 76 fixed lines on a stepped grid of three to five rows
- Scatters count anywhere on the reels, and five of them start 16 free spins
- Scatters do not appear in free spins, so more of them cannot extend the round
- Wild reels come only at random, and there is no bonus buy
- A little over four spins in five pay nothing
- Megaways and Christmas editions share the name
Dazzle Me applies two ideas to a stepped grid: whole reels turning wild in the main game, and a reel copying its neighbour on every free spin. With a 19% hit frequency, most spins pass without a win while you wait for either. It suits a player who likes short rules, not one after a bonus buy or longer free spins.
Dazzle Me FAQ
How do you trigger free spins in Dazzle Me?
Three, four or five Free Spins symbols anywhere on the reels award 8, 12 or 16 free spins. They play at the stake of the spin that triggered them, and their total is added to that spin's win.
Can Dazzle Me free spins be retriggered?
No. Scatter symbols do not appear in free spins, and the rules describe no other way to add spins. The 8, 12 or 16 you start with is the whole round.
What are Dazzling Wild Reels?
A main-game feature that comes at random: one to five reels fill with wilds from top to bottom. The wilds substitute for every symbol except the scatter, and each wild reel stands on all 76 lines at once.
How often does Dazzle Me pay?
NetEnt gives a hit frequency of 19%, a little under one spin in five returning something. It is a long-run count of paying spins, not of their size, so it cannot predict how one session ends.
Is Dazzle Me Megaways the same game?
No. NetEnt lists Dazzle Me Megaways as a separate game with its own page and figures, and Dazzle Me Christmas too. This page describes the 2015 original with 76 fixed lines, so check the full name on the tile.
