Circle of Life Slot Demo by Hacksaw Gaming

Circle of Life by Hacksaw Gaming Slot Overview

Circle of Life leans into a stark, monochrome meditation on growth and decay, with bursts of colour as the Tree imagery blooms. The faceless figures, skeletal transitions, and restrained soundtrack create a tense, thoughtful mood. It feels like a darker sibling to Life and Death.

On a 5×4 grid with 14 paylines, it’s high volatility with a 15,000x max win. The standout is the Tree of Life wild that expands via respins, stacking multipliers, then triggering the Circle wheel for extra boosts or a Skull stop. Try the free demo on Bonus Tiime.

Circle of Life Slot Features

Circle of Life packs in Tree of Life, Circle of Life, Spreading FS Symbols, Origin Bonus Game, Eternal Bonus Game, Rebirth Hidden Epic Bonus, and Feature Buy, creating a feature-driven loop where expanding wild multipliers, reel-wide scatters, and bonus upgrades can shift the pace quickly.

Tree of Life

Tree symbols land as wilds and reveal an additive multiplier from x2 to x100. When a Tree helps form a win, it triggers a respin and expands into a Tree of Life, sticking for that sequence. Each respin grows it upward by one row, and respins keep going while new wins appear.

Circle of Life

When a Tree of Life expands from the bottom row to the top row, the Circle of Life activates during the respin before the grid settles. It spins to award a multiplier that combines with the Tree of Life, or it lands on a Skull to end the sequence. It can add x2 to x100, or multiply by x2.

Spreading FS Symbols

Land 3 or more FS scatters and, after wins pay, each one expands to cover its entire reel. Every covered position shows a free spins value, and the game totals them up. When triggering or buying a bonus, FS symbols can also transform into Upgrade symbols to move you into a higher bonus.

• FS: Expands across its reel and awards +1, +2, or +3.
• Upgrade: Converts a trigger into a higher bonus tier.

Origin Bonus Game

Origin Bonus Game triggers with 3 expanding FS symbols and keeps the base mechanics, but changes how Trees behave. When a Tree is part of a win, the Tree of Life becomes sticky on the next free spin and stays sticky until it stops contributing to wins. A fully expanded Tree of Life gets removed for the next free spin, and respins do not trigger.

Eternal Bonus Game

Eternal Bonus Game triggers with 4 FS scatters or via an upgrade. It uses Origin’s sticky Tree rules, then adds reel activation: when a Circle of Life triggers on a reel, that reel becomes active until the round ends. An active reel guarantees a Tree symbol lands each spin, unless the reel already holds a Tree or Tree of Life.

Rebirth Hidden Epic Bonus

Rebirth Hidden Epic Bonus unlocks by landing 5 FS scatters, or by specific upgrade outcomes during a trigger. It keeps Rebirth mechanics while starting with reels 2 and 4 already activated, so Trees appear more reliably from the beginning. This pushes more frequent multiplier setups compared with the lower bonus tiers.

Free Spins

Free Spins start when 3 or more FS scatters land and expand across their reels, adding up all displayed values into your total. During Eternal and Rebirth, landing FS symbols also grants extra spins, from +4 to +12 each. On a trigger or buy, FS symbols may turn into Upgrade symbols, shifting you into Eternal or Rebirth.

• Origin Bonus Game: Triggered by 3 expanding FS symbols.
• Eternal Bonus Game: Triggered by 4 FS scatters, or 3 scatters with 1 Upgrade.
• Rebirth Hidden Epic Bonus: Triggered by 5 FS scatters, or specific Upgrade combinations.

Feature Buy

This option lets you purchase bonus rounds or increase bonus activation chances.

• BonusHunt FeatureSpins: 5x bet, spins more likely to trigger a bonus.
• Life or Death FeatureSpins: 70x bet, guarantees at least 2 Tree symbols.
• Origin: 100x bet, buys the Origin Bonus Game.
• Eternal: 300x bet, buys the Eternal Bonus Game.

Circle of Life Slot Review

Circle of Life stands out with its stark monochrome look, punctuated by bursts of colour when the Tree grows. The eerie atmosphere and restrained sound design keep spins tense and focused, making the theme feel deliberate rather than decorative.

The core loop stays engaging thanks to expanding wild multipliers and the Circle wheel that can extend momentum or cut it off. Bonus triggers feel rewarding when scatters spread across reels, but high volatility can create dry patches between feature sequences.

Overall, Circle of Life delivers a memorable feature set with strong pacing in bonuses and enough variety to hold attention over longer sessions. It suits players who enjoy strategic feature chasing and can handle variance without needing constant small hits.
