Elements: The Awakening™ has an Avalanche meter which increases by one for each successive fall until it reaches the maximum of 4. After four successive Avalanches one of the four Free Falls Storm modes is triggered. The colours of the Avalanche meter match the leading element in the current game round. The leading element is the element that will trigger the Free Falls Storm mode for that element if Free Falls is activated.

The Energy Meter, displayed on the Play button in the main game, has 4 sections, which fill with energy from the leading element, indicating which Free Falls Storm mode is entered. The display shows which Free Falls Storm mode is entered if Free Falls is won.

Elements: The Awakening™ has 4 separate Free Falls; Fire Storm mode, Air Storm mode, Earth Storm mode, and Water Storm mode. Wild symbols in Free Falls each have a different action, depending on which of the four Storm modes is entered. Fire Storm Wilds spread across the columns, turning any two adjacent symbols into additional Wild symbols. In Air Storm mode, 2 Wild symbols fall randomly anywhere onto the columns from the start of Free Falls. In Air Storm mode the Wilds move position, whilst remaining on the columns for the entire Air Storm mode. Earth Storm Wilds are indestructible for a maximum of 3 Falls when completing winning bet lines. Water Storm Wilds are Expanding Wilds, and expand vertically to cover the entire column transforming symbols into Wild symbols. Each Free Fall mode gives 10 free falls and Wild symbol substitutions.
