A varnished punt noses through a curtain of weeping willow fronds on a sunlit bend, its long pole dipping into clear green water. Anyone may push off here straight away, and once the free round begins its multiplier only ever climbs.
Frondfall Reach is the bend Percival poles first every morning, so its reels are turning before you have even settled on the cushions. It keeps a middling pace: Reedmace Stems, Glasswing Damsels and Towpath Bells drift by often, while the Brass-Shod Pole and the Striped Punt carry the bigger lines. The Crossed Poles wild stands in for any picture except the Willow Veil. Three Willow Veils anywhere part the fronds for ten free spins, four for fifteen and five for twenty-two, and fresh veils in the round lengthen the drift. Inside it the Rising Pole pays x2, then x3, then x4 right to the end.
Rising Pole. Free-spin wins pay x2 on the first two spins, x3 on the next two and x4 on every spin after that, and the multiplier never drops back before the round ends.
Every spin on the meadow uses free virtual coins. None of it is real-money gambling, no win carries real-world value, and nothing is sold in-app. A random number generator decides each result, and past spins never steer the next.
Measured by running this page's own engine for 10,000,000 spins: coin RTP 94.7%, hit frequency 33.4%, free spins about once in 128 spins, a win of 10x your stake or more about once in 109 spins. Coin figures only — no money is staked or returned.
Open the page and the punt is already in the willows: Percival has stowed a purse of play coins under the cushions, and no form or download stands in the way.
Set your stake on the cushion and spin. The Crossed Poles wild completes a line for any picture it touches, except a Willow Veil, which it leaves well alone.
Three Willow Veils lift aside for ten free spins, four for fifteen and five for twenty-two. The Rising Pole pays x2 for two spins, x3 for two more and x4 from then on.
First-timers keen to test the reels before any account exists, and anyone who likes a free round that keeps gathering pace.
A middling drift. Small wins slip past at an easy rate, and the free round is where the bigger moments tend to collect as the multiplier climbs.

The five card ranks (10 to A) pay the least. Three Willow Veils anywhere open the free round. Full values for three and four of a kind are in the paytable.
No. The willow punt is spinning for anybody the instant this page has loaded; only Vesper Boathouse and Yewfeather Lawn ask for a free account.
Yes. Percival tops up the opening 100,000 of a fresh account with every coin the willows gave you.
Never. Once it reaches x4 it stays there until the last free spin of that round.
Missions refresh every day and count on all three moorings. Nobody has to take them on.
An old timber boathouse at dusk, lamps glowing in its windows and on the still river, the spires dark against a rose-pink sky. The calmest mooring on the meadow: when a paid spin brings nothing home, the swan wilds stay lit and the rest of the reels turn once more for free.
Behind the college, a sunlit lawn of clipped topiary animals stands beside the hedge maze, and a great leafy peacock fans a tail of yew in the middle. The liveliest world on the meadow: winning shapes are snipped away and every further win in the same chain pays more.
Spin for the fun of it, and tie up once the fun runs out. Fix a time limit before your first spin and step ashore for breaks.

Swan Punt Meadow takes adults aged 18 and over, and only them. Every spin is paid for in virtual coins of no monetary value; no one can buy, sell, withdraw or exchange them. The meadow keeps no coin kiosk and no payment page at any landing, never hands out prizes of real-world value, and success here does not imply future success at real-money gambling.

Every mooring draws on the same purse. A free account slips the ropes on all three and writes your coins, favourites, level and daily missions into Percival’s ledger to wait for your next visit.
