Sister Hope
Colossal Nun
Creates a Colossal Mystery Symbol between 2×2 and 4×4 positions. It turns into one regular paying symbol. If it overlaps a Wild Reel, it becomes a Giant Wild instead.
Nunchucks features: four nuns, Re-Spins & Bonus Spins (Canada)
How every moving part of Nunchucks works — wilds, Re-Spin chains, the four nun powers, both bonus rounds and the five Elevate buys that Canadian casino sites keep switched on. All rules come from NetEnt’s official game sheet.
Wild symbols
The wild stands in for every regular symbol on the 6×4 grid. It does not replace Bonus, Super Bonus or Nun symbols. When a wild could complete more than one combination on the same way, the game pays the highest possible one according to the paytable.
One detail matters more than it looks: a wild can land on top of a nun without blocking her. The nun’s power still fires, so a wild sitting on Sister Love, for example, does not cost you the wild reel she brings.
Re-Spins — the engine of the game
Re-Spins are where Nunchucks lives. Whenever a nun lands — in the base game, in Bonus Spins or in Super Bonus Spins — she switches on her Nun Feature and may award a Re-Spin. If several nuns land together, their features activate one after another before the Re-Spins begin.
- Every feature that is switched on stays active for the whole Re-Spin sequence.
- Active features combine, so a wild reel and a reel multiplier work on the same win.
- New nuns can land during Re-Spins and add their powers, even when a wild covers them.
- Mother Sofia can appear mid-chain and upgrade whatever is already running.
- Wins are counted after each Re-Spin; the chain ends when no further Re-Spin is awarded.
The four Nun Features in detail
Sister Love
Wild Reel Nun
Converts the full reel she lands on — all four rows — into wilds. Every further Wild Reel Nun does the same on her own reel, up to a grid with several wild columns.
Sister Faith
Multiplier Nun
Gives multipliers to one or more reels. Values on every reel in a win are added, not multiplied, and a Colossal symbol across several boosted reels collects all of them.
Mother Sofia
Upgrade Nun
Adds no feature of her own. She grows the Colossal symbol by one size up to 4×4, doubles active reel multipliers, or adds 1–3 extra Wild Reels if reels are free.
Bonus Spins
Bonus symbols can land anywhere on the grid during the base game. The number you land decides the length of the round:
| Bonus symbols | Bonus Spins |
|---|---|
| 3 | 8 |
| 4 | 10 |
| 5 | 12 |
| 6 | 14 |
Nuns trigger Re-Spins inside the round just as they do in the base game, and the round picks up again once a chain finishes. The catch: every nun power is reset after each Bonus Spin. Spins are played at the stake that triggered them, and the total is added to that triggering round.
Super Bonus Spins
If at least one of the triggering symbols is a Super Bonus symbol, you get Super Bonus Spins instead. The spin count depends on how many Bonus and Super Bonus symbols you landed, but the rules on nun powers flip: nothing resets between spins. Every wild reel, reel multiplier and Colossal symbol you collect stays for the whole round, and further nuns plus Mother Sofia’s upgrades keep stacking on top. Features clear only once the round is over. This is the mode behind the 12,000× ceiling — see the Nunchucks RTP and max win page.
Elevate feature buys available in Canada
Casino sites serving Canada run the full Nunchucks build with all five Elevate options. Each price is a multiple of the stake you have set.
Bonus Hunt
3× bet
An ante-style mode charged on every spin while it is on. It raises the chance of special features landing.
Guaranteed Nun
25× bet
At least one nun lands on the spin, with the chance of setting off a Re-Spin chain.
Bonus Spins
100× bet
Three or more Bonus symbols land and start Bonus Spins. Super Bonus Spins can also be triggered.
Super Bonus Spins
300× bet
Three or more Bonus symbols including a Super Bonus, plus at least one nun in the same round.
Super Nun Spin
500× bet
A guaranteed nun and a greatly increased chance of either Bonus Spins or Super Bonus Spins.
Buys speed up access to features; they do not make the game pay more over time. At C$2 a spin, one Super Nun Spin costs C$1,000 and can return far less. Test them in the free demo first and decide your limit before you buy.
