Frankenstein
Light & Wonder · Persistent Prize Multipliers
How the game works and what to check
Start with the documented Frankenstein feature
Frankenstein uses a prize board above the reels where Power Up events can add multipliers to displayed prizes. The useful AP read is the inherited multiplier machine setup rather than a conventional must-hit-by counter.
Check that the game matches this guide. Read the help screen, note the bet and denomination, and check what stays on the screen after each spin. A different version may have different rules.

Check every feature on the screen
Frankenstein uses a prize board above the reels where Power Up events can add multipliers to displayed prizes. The useful AP read is the inherited multiplier machine setup rather than a conventional must-hit-by counter.
The multiplier values attached to the prize/jackpot board above the reels and whether a meaningful group of strong multipliers remains active.
Do not use a single 'big multiplier' as a universal entry rule. A multiplier attached to a weaker prize can be materially different from the same multiplier attached to a stronger award.
Read the entire prize array rather than one isolated multiplier. The combination of prize values, attached multipliers, bet level and the probability of reaching the award mechanism determines whether a state deserves deeper evaluation.
How the multiplier board works
Public AP documentation describes six prizes above the reels. Power Up symbols can increase multipliers attached to those prizes, creating a board that can become stronger over time.
Why the state matters
The prize-board multipliers can remain on the machine until a board prize is won. A new player can therefore inherit a stronger prize machine setup funded by earlier play.
How to frame Frankenstein
On Frankenstein, machine setup, denomination, bet required for the feature and which game or bet the progress belongs to can change the conclusion. Anything not verified belongs in the uncertainty column.
Machine checks
- Capture the complete board, every pot and all locked or eligible regions.
- Separate stored value from the event required to access or collect it.
- Confirm which components persist and which reset after each feature.
