Field of Green slot by Realtime Gaming (RTG)

There is little to learn about how to play Field of Green beyond the stake, and it is the only thing that has to be set before the first spin. What the Field of Green paytable promises is stated against that number and not in cash.

A win in Field of Green is a run of matching symbols on one of its 20 lines, counted from the leftmost reel rightwards; a combination that starts anywhere else does not pay. Only the highest win on each line is paid, so two hits on the same line do not add up.

Everything above is stated in full inside Field of Green itself — the paytable button opens the list of symbols and the rules for Penalty Bonus. The numbers there are quoted against the stake you currently have set, which makes them easier to read than any review.

Strip the art away and Field of Green is 5 reels, 3 rows and 20 paylines. Wins are read left to right from the first reel, and only the highest combination on each line counts, so a second striker further along the same line adds nothing. The paytable is top-heavy. The striker carries the headline number, the ball the next one, and everything below is filler.

Striker Wild does the substituting (the striker fills in the missing symbol on a line), and it is worth learning what it does not substitute for, which is the scatter. Top end on Field of Green is 2,500× the line bet, and nothing on the base grid gets close to it — the number assumes Penalty Bonus lines up.

The trigger to watch is Penalty Bonus — you take a penalty and choose the corner — and it is the only event on the grid that changes what the next spin is worth. Practically, that means a session on Field of Green divides into two very different modes, and judging the game on the base spins alone gives you half the picture.

Field of Green carries three features, and they are where the game earns its place in the lobby rather than on the base grid.

Penalty Bonus — you take a penalty and choose the corner. Everything else Field of Green does on the base grid is a preamble to Penalty Bonus.

Free Games — up to fifteen spins with wins doubled. Everything else Field of Green does on the base grid is a preamble to Free Games.

Striker Wild. The paytable entry reads: the striker fills in the missing symbol on a line. In a medium-volatility game like Field of Green that matters more than it sounds: Striker Wild is the round the quoted ceiling is calculated from.

Taken together the set is what separates Field of Green from the rest of its shelf. The base grid is common enough across the catalogue; Penalty Bonus is not, and it is the reason the game has its own page here.

Field of Green is staked per line: pick a line bet, multiply by 20, and that is what a spin costs; every Field of Green payout is quoted against that same line bet. That is also why 2,500× the line bet is written as a multiple rather than an amount — the Field of Green ceiling moves with the stake.

Treat Field of Green as a medium-volatility game — it pays often enough to keep a session moving and hard enough now and then to be worth the wait. Be careful with any RTP figure you find for Field of Green elsewhere. RTG sets the return per operator, not per game, so Field of Green runs differently from one casino to the next. The only figure worth trusting for Field of Green is the one printed in its own paytable.

One practical note on staking Field of Green: changing the bet between spins changes nothing but the price, and no state carries across — each Field of Green spin is settled on its own. Field of Green lets autoplay run until Penalty Bonus lands, which is the sensible configuration — there is nothing on its base grid worth watching spin by spin.

Size the stake on Field of Green so the balance covers a few hundred spins — that is roughly the window in which the game shows you what it does. Set the limit before the first spin of Field of Green rather than after a bad run — the deposit and self-exclusion tools are in the account area and take effect immediately.

Field of Green counts at the full 100% towards wagering, as every slot in our lobby does, and the conditions live on the bonus page. Penalty Bonus is what Field of Green is built around, and it shows itself in play rather than in a table — a few rounds say more than the specification above.

One thing not to do with Field of Green is chase Penalty Bonus by raising the stake after a dry run: its trigger frequency does not change with bet size, only the cost of waiting does. If Field of Green stops being comfortable, the responsible gaming page lists the limits, the cooling-off options and the outside organisations we work with.

In short: Field of Green is for a game that pays often enough to stay interesting without flattening out. It sits in our lobby alongside Field of Green 2, which shares the corner of the catalogue and differs in pace.

Field of Green 2 is the near neighbour, and either is a reasonable opening. Field of Green is the better one when you want a game that keeps showing you something.
