Volatility
NetEnt rates Aloha! Cluster Pays 3.9 on its volatility index and caps the top payout at 700x the bet.
What it means: Wins tend to come in modest clusters, so a KSh budget lasts steadily, but a single spin will not multiply it many hundreds of times beyond the cap.

Features
Wins are formed by groups of identical symbols connected horizontally or vertically anywhere on the 6×5 grid. No paylines are used.
A Substitution symbol turns into the adjacent symbol that gives the highest possible cluster win. It does not substitute for Free Spin symbols.
A cluster win can randomly activate a re-spin where the winning symbols are held and the rest spin again. Re-spins continue while the cluster keeps growing, and the feature is not available in Free Spins.
3, 4, 5 or 6 Free Spin symbols award 9, 10, 11 or 12 free spins, and more can be won inside the round. Low-paying symbols are removed as the round goes on, and if the last spin has no win you keep spinning until one lands.
