The Hand of Surtur symbol can also be activated, but only if the created Portal symbol will become part of a winning combo. The Hand of Surtur will rip through a Wild symbol and reveal a multiplier with a value from 2x to 200x; It will be applied to the Portal symbol and affect any win lines it’ll pass through.
