Catch the Gold Slot Review

How to play

The gameplay features items you would usually find in traditional casinos in Las Vegas. This time around, you have to play on 5 reels, 3 rows, and 50 fixed pay lines, on which you spread your bet. You can adjust your bet per line using the – and + button at the bottom-left side of the screen. Betting on each spin will cost between €0.50 and €250, and it is dependent on the number of credits and denomination size played with. 

Hit the big double-arrow Spin button sitting directly below the game board. There's no Max Bet option here, so you have to set up your bet manually. The Autoplay button is available, sitting immediately after the Spin button. Should you opt for Autoplay, it will allow you to choose up to 300 spins automatically. The gameplay is compatible on mobile and PC devices, but the PC play is more enjoyable.

Symbols and payouts

The payouts here have a classic feel to them, and you would likely expect that. There are Standard and Special Symbols payouts to choose from. 

The highest-rewarding standard symbol is the Golden Slot Machine symbol, which offers a payout of 200 credits for 5 of a kind. The Golden 7 and Bell symbols give a payout of 150 and 100 credits for 5 on a pay line, respectively. The Gold Coin and Dice will each offer a payout of 100 credits for 5 matching symbols.

You will be rewarded with 75 credits for 5 of the Blue Diamond symbols on a pay line. The Card symbols are the lower rewarding symbols. Landing 5 of the A and K symbols on a pay line will offer a payout of 50 credits for each.

If You get 5 of the Q and J symbols on a pay line, you will win 25 credits for each. A Male Dealer is the Wild symbol that comes in for other symbols to create winning chances, except the Scatter symbol. The Card-holding Female Dealer is the scatter symbol, with 5 on a pay line rewarding you with 100x the bet.

Catch the Gold bonus features

The Free Games feature is the Catch the Gold bonus game. To get this feature in motion, you need to land 3 or more Card-holding scatter symbols. The Catch the Gold Free Spins will be unlocked according to the number of Scatters that activated it. So, for 3, 4, or 5 Scatters, you will unlock 8, 10, or 12 free spins, respectively. The same value of free spins will be added to the reels upon landing 3, 4, or 5 scatters in this feature.

The Wild symbol can land on the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th reels during the Free Games feature. When the Wilds show up, you will see the reels hold as the wilds turn sticky, maintaining their spots all through the feature. The Wild and Scatter symbols' appearance will offer you increased chances of getting additional free spins for sizable wins.
