The sequel to NLC's first rock-tap slot, which debuted the then-new xBomb function amid tonnes of amazing gameplay, is called MISERY MINING. MISERY MINING, if anything, pushes Fire in the Hole's central ideas farther down the shaft. In addition to the gameplay being explosive in the literal sense, the stern dwarven figure is returning, searching for gold or liquid gold.
A larger, darker 7x7 game grid surrounds a 3x3 block of active symbols at the start of the main game. There are 27 ways to win for players at the beginning size. But with certain very skilfully crafted expansion abilities, this number can absurdly increase to 823,543; the details of how this works are given in the next section.
Three or more matching symbols must land in neighbouring reels, starting from the leftmost side of an active grid area, to land a winning combo. The lowest earning cards are 10-A wild west style royals, which are worth 2-4.25 times the wager for seven of a kind. Next in line are deluxe pipes, compasses, wine bottles, rats and the dwarven character, which pays 5.25–16 times the stake for seven.
The Collapsing Mine feature in Misery Mining is hilarious. Blowing up xBomb symbols expands the current game area. As soon as they do, the barrier next to them shifts by one row or reel, expanding the actively playable area. Every barrier moves one step forward when a xBomb detonates in the centre. This multiplies the number of symbols that can be utilised and wins.
Misery Freespins begin on a 3x3 active grid and are activated by landing precisely three scatter symbols. The feature starts on a 3 x 4 or 3 x 5 beginning grid if 3 scatters plus 1 or 2 super scatters initiate it. Next, players choose between two modes: Rat Mode, which begins with three free spins and resets to three when scatters or super scatters are activated, or Mouse Mode, which awards 8, 10, or 12 spins based on how many scatters triggered the bonus.
