The Dream Drop jackpot feature is clearly the most exciting feature in this game, however, the expanding grid is a nice touch too. Let’s take a look at all of the features in a little more detail.
Blockers & Power Ups
As with other grid slots from Relax Gaming, like Cluster Tumble for example, central to the gameplay in Space Miners is the expanding grid. To begin, there are 6 reels and 3 rows. Above that you’ll see 4 rows of stone blocks, and below, another 3.
Each time a payline is completed then a re-spin is awarded. But first, blocks adjacent to winning symbols are removed, increasing the number of active spaces and win ways in play. If more wins are created, then more blocks are removed and another re-spin is triggered.
This process repeats until there are no more wins. At which point, the grid re-sets to its original size. At its biggest, 10 rows are revealed on the grid, and over 1,000,000 win ways.
But that’s not all. You’ll also spot ‘Power Up’s embedded in some blocks. These are special tools that take out entire rows or grids in one go when the block surrounding them is destroyed.

Horizontal ones destroy all blocks on the row they are on. Vertical ones destroy all blocks on the reel they are on. Crosses destroy blocks on their row AND reel. And 3×3 Power Ups destroy all blocks in the surrounding square area. The red arrows point in the direction of the blocks to be destroyed.
Free Spins
The scatter symbols are UFOs in this slot and if you land three of them anywhere on the grid then it triggers the free spins feature. You get 6 free spins as a minimum and an additional 2 spins for each and every Scatter symbol that you land while playing.
A key point here, and a big advantage is that blocks that you destroy during the free spins rounds remain destroyed for that game, only returning when the free spins are over. This makes it easier to clock up big wins.
Dream Drop Jackpots
Maybe the most exciting feature in this game is the Dream Drops Jackpots feature. You trigger the Dream Drops Jackpots round at random. The will change entirely to symbols that are either DD or blocks. If you land 5 DD symbols then the round begins.
There are five different columns each with one of the jackpots at the top of them (rapid, midi, maxi, major, or mega). To determine which jackpot you’ll win, click to spin and see which column fills up with DD blocks.
