Temple Falls Slot Machine Advantage Play

Advantage play Incredible Technologies' Temple Falls. 5x7 persistent prize coin grid — Boost Blast lineage with values 0.625x to 200x bet.

How Temple Falls Works

Temple Falls is an Incredible Technologies slot family running on the same engine as Boost Blast — same persistent-coin logic, different cosmetics. Variants include Temple Falls Jungle Adventure. The base game features a massive 5x7 grid of persistent prize coins displayed above the 5-reel main game. Each coin holds a value ranging from 0.625x bet up to 200x bet, plus special Wheel symbols that lead to jackpot wheel events.

The defining mechanic is full persistence on the prize coin grid. All coins on the 5x7 grid are persistent and will eventually be awarded — they only leave the grid through the Coin Collect bonus event. The Coin Collect feature is triggered by landing 3, 4, or 5 waterfall symbols on the reels, awarding 10, 15, or 20 feature spins respectively. During the bonus, a coin from the bottom row of the 5x7 grid randomly drops down and is awarded to the player.

When a coin is awarded during the bonus, all coins in the column above it shift down one position, and a new random coin is added to the top of that column. This means the grid continuously refreshes with new random coin values during the bonus, rather than draining out as the player collects. If the bonus ends with valuable prizes still on the grid, those prizes remain for the next player. The persistent coin grid is the AP foundation — high-value coins on the grid waiting to be collected represent stored equity.

Where the Advantage Comes From

The advantage on Temple Falls and Boost Blast is the visible 5x7 prize coin grid above the reels. Every coin on the grid has a value from 0.625x to 200x bet, plus Wheel symbols that lead to jackpot events. Coins persist between players — they only leave through the Coin Collect bonus. A grid loaded with high-value coins represents stored equity that fires on the next bonus trigger.

Reading the cabinet means scanning the 5x7 grid for high-value coins, especially those near the bottom row (which are awarded first during the bonus) or in columns where stacked high values create concentrated equity in a single bonus trigger. Wheel symbols on the grid are particularly valuable because they lead to jackpot wheel events. The 35-position grid means a single cabinet has substantial state to scan, but the value labels are visible at a glance.

The 'eventually awarded' framing matters: every coin on the grid will eventually be collected, so equity calculations include not just what fires on the next bonus trigger but the long-run expected payout from the current grid state across however many bonus triggers it takes to clear it. Bet level affects coin frequency and the dollar value of each coin (since coin values are bet-relative), so the AP read scales with bet level. Players who track this title look for cabinets with multiple high-value coins on the grid and recent inactivity.

The actual coin-grid evaluation method weighting bottom-row position, column-stacking effects, and Wheel-symbol equity — plus the bankroll required to commit to harvest a heavily loaded grid — that's what the courses are for.

How do you play Temple Falls for an advantage?

Is advantage play on Temple Falls legal?
Yes. Advantage play on Temple Falls and Boost Blast is legal everywhere casino slot play itself is legal. You're using publicly visible information — the prize values displayed on the 5x7 coin grid — and your own bankroll to play machines at moments when the math favors the player. You're not modifying the machine, manipulating outcomes, or using restricted equipment. The casino still earns its hold on the average; advantage players just take the spots the average player leaves on the table.
How much bankroll do I need to advantage play Temple Falls?
Bankroll requirements on Temple Falls depend on grid loading and the spin-window-to-trigger expectation. A heavily loaded grid with concentrated value in the bottom row needs moderate bankroll because the next bonus pulls high-value coins immediately. Top-row-loaded grids need more bankroll because column shifts have to bring those coins down before they're awarded. Specific bankroll math by grid state is covered in the Advantage Play Professional Course.
