Game Objective:
Circus is a five-reel, twenty-payline slot game with 16 features. 3 or more scattered Big Top symbols anywhere in view trigger and award one of the sixteen features. At the start of the game (when opening the game), player needs to select one character from the 4 characters available in the character selection screen. Player can change the character from within the game. Each character is independent of others. Once a particular feature game is played for a particular character, it cannot be played again until all 16 features are played for the respective character.
Game Information:
The minimum bet amount is $0.01 USD and the maximum bet amount is $1000 USD.
How to play:

Selected lines are lit and unselected lines are not lit. Player can also select/deselect lines by clicking on the desired line number at the end of the lines.
Setting 'BETS': When you enter the game, a default bet of $0.25 per line is set for all 20 lines, resulting in a total bet of $5.00. You can choose to increase or decrease the bet per line by using the < and > buttons available to the Left & Right of the 'BET' indicator on the game screen respectively. If your game balance is less than $5.00, the system will automatically adjust the bet to the next highest possible amount.
Max Bet: To play with 20 lines and $50.00 bet per line, click on 'MAX BET'. If your game balance is not sufficient, this option is disabled.
The number of selected lines is multiplied by the 'bet per line', and the total bet amount is displayed in the 'TOTAL BET' meter, which is located at bottom left of the game screen.
RULES: Game rules can be viewed by clicking on 'RULES' button which is located to the left of the reels, above the 'TOTAL CREDITS 'meter. Bonus rules can be viewed by clicking on 'BONUS RULES' button. You can go back to the game by clicking on the 'BACK TO GAME' button.
'PAYTABLE': The 'PAYTABLE' can be viewed by clicking on the 'PAYTABLE' button located below the 'RULES' button on the game screen. To calculate the payout amount, multiply the respective prize with the bet per line. Note that to calculate the payout for scattered Big Top symbol, multiply the respective prize with the total bet. You can go back to the game by clicking on the 'BACK TO GAME' button.

After the reels stop spinning, any winning combinations on the selected lines, or any scatter wins, will be paid according to the paytable.

The game rules are identical in both real money and play money modes.
Character Selection: At the start of the game (when opening the game), player is required to choose one of the 4 available characters. Player can change the character at any time from within the game when the game is not in progress. To change the character, mouse-over on the character image at top left corner of the game screen. A short story for the current character is displayed with 'CHANGE CHARACTER' button at the bottom. Click on this button to go to the character selection screen.
Each character has 4 abilities: Strength, Courage, Balance, and Showmanship. Each character has a core (main) ability as follow.
FENCHURCH - His core ability is Strength.
IGGY - His core ability is Courage
NADIA - Her core ability is Balance
MR.BLINKY - His core ability is Showmanship.
Each character is given 2 points for his/her core ability by default. Ability points are shown at top right corner of the game screen. Ability points are also shown on the character selection screen.
There are two ways to increase ability points:
By completing a SUCCESSFUL feature related to the respective ability. There are 16 features in this game: 4 features for Strength, 4 features for Courage, 4 features for Balance, and 4 features for Showmanship. To identify which feature belongs to which ability, refer to the Bonus Rules screen.
When a particular symbol related to the respective ability appears ANYWHERE on the screen.
Each character and his/her ability points are retained although the game is closed and/or the player logs out.
Once a particular ability has reached the maximum (20 points), if the respective ability symbol appears anywhere on the reels and/or if the player successfully completes one or more feature that is related to the respective ability, then no additional point is awarded for the respective ability until all four abilities reach 20 points each and all 16 features are completed which would reset all ability points to their default values.
Each character has 16 chapters for his/her story. By default 1 chapter is available and the other 15 chapters are locked. Each time a feature is completed, a chapter is unlocked (except for the very first feature completed, which does not unlock a chapter). After all 16 features are completed and reset, all 15 chapters are locked again, leaving only 1 default chapter unlocked.
Ability Multiplier: All wins (except feature wins) are multiplied by the ability multiplier shown at top right corner of the game screen. This multiplier starts from 1 and increases up to 5. Increment of this multiplier depends on the ability points. For example: if 3 abilities have reached multiplier value of 2 and one ability is at multiplier value of 1.5 then the final multiplier is 1.5. Other examples: When all four abilities have 2 points each, then the ability multiplier increases to 1.5 and when all four abilities have 4 points each, then the ability multiplier increases to 2.
Ability multiplier is character-specific and is retained along with the character and his/her ability points. Ability multiplier is reset back to 1 once all four abilities have reached 20 points each and all 16 features have been completed.
Amounts of $0.005 and above are rounded up, below are rounded down, to the nearest currency unit.
Feature Triggering: Three or more scattered Big Top symbols anywhere on the reels trigger and award one of the 16 Features. A successful feature awards a cash prize and increases the respective ability point by 1 and an unsuccessful feature awards only a cash prize. Cash prize is based on a random multiplier, multiplied by total bet of the triggering game. At the end of the feature, result screen will be shown showing the feature win amount. Click on 'CONTINUE' button to navigate to the main game screen.
Repeat Bet/Change Bet: If you have already bet, the settings selected will be automatically carried over to the subsequent spin. Simply click on 'SPIN' to play with the same bet again. To change your bet, use the < and > buttons to the left and right of the 'BET' or 'LINES' indicators as explained above.
Total Credits: Your remaining game balance, after you have placed the desired bet, is shown in 'TOTAL CREDITS' meter.
Your current game balance is the sum of the amounts displayed in the 'TOTAL CREDITS' meter and the 'TOTAL BET' meter.
