Where’s The Gold Slot Review

Is there a golden lining to this game?

We’d like to think so but from our experience, this Where’s The Gold slot machine isn’t just the title to this game, but a description of how you might end up feeling at the end of your session.

Now, don’t run away to find other video slots to play online just yet, as there are still many reasons why you should give this gold prospecting themed slot a chance.

Fan of Aristocrat slots will immediately recognise and love the style and play; on a good day it could even make it’s way to the top of your favourite list.

It’s a simple 25 payline slot with five reels and a single bonus game that will reward you with up to 10 free spins. But much like other games from the same casino software provider you will have to dig deep to find them.

All set on a bright orangey purple background with a few cacti thrown in for good luck, we have to admit the graphics aren’t great. Not like you’d find in NetEnt slots or the newer Play’n GO games.

You’ll find some simple A – J symbols, along with the happy white bearded prospector, a mine shaft, pick axes, a trusty wooden wagon and, of course, what would gold digging be without a little dynamite to blast those golden nuggets free?

But who’s this casino video slot for?

We’ve already mentioned that fans of Aristocrat games will no doubt like this one.

Fans of gold slot themes too will like this along with a very similar California Gold by the same provider.

Add a return to player rate of 95%, which gives this medium variance slot a decent amount of action on the five reels, and it should certainly appeal to those who don’t think that graphics are everything.

If you are a big better and like to bet over 50 per spin then you are better off heading elsewhere, perhaps the dangerously captivating 50 Dragons slot which has a betting limit of 100 a spin. The minimum bet is 0.25, making it fairly attainable for most gamblers.

However much you decide to gamble, just remember this is a marathon, not a race. Start small and slowly increase as you get more wins and closer to the heart of the mountain: namely, the free spins bonus games.

Win up to 10 free spins with golden wilds

This is where this slot game gets interesting. Find three or more of the dynamite scatter symbols and you’ll trigger the free spins.

Here you pick a character from a set of five. Your chosen one will then go gold digging for your free spins and up to 3 wilds symbols.

When the characters have stopped digging, the amount of free spins you’ve won are equal to the amount of golden nuggets in the box below them. If any symbols show up in the box too, then these will all be wild in the free games.

On average we’ve gotten about 5 – 7 free spins with at least 1 wild symbol. This has lead to some ok 30x our bet wins, but after going searching for them for a good 150+ spins the pay off doesn’t always feel worthwhile.

We can only imagine if you manage to win all 10 games, and get 3 golden wild symbols and manage to re-trigger them that you could win upwards of 100x your bet here.

Though it generally feels pretty unlikely, the hope is there.

Why play Where’s The Gold slot online?

Unfortunately, at the moment, you can only play this Aristocrat game on your PC/MAC. There’s no mobile version yet, and to be honest not sure there will be for quite a while.

So if you are a fan on playing online video slots then this classic style game, with it’s simple graphics and unmistakeable sounds, will have you searching for those big golden nuggets.

And it does have a decent RTP of 95%. This medium variance game will appeal to all types of players, and much like Big Ben or Queen of the Nile II slot, is for those who love the classic pub machines.

If this feels just a little too old fashioned, we’d recommend Nemos Voyage by WMS. Underwater treasure is a little bit like digging out gold… right?
