Gold Collector
Gold Collector
First there was Bonanza, then came Diamond Mine and now All41 Studios (with Microgaming / Games Global) brings you Gold Collector slot.
The question is; will you strike it lucky in this prospecting-themed game? After all, it comes with the HyperHold feature that can scoop you 1,200x on a single spin. Thanks to 5 Jackpots!
Well, isn’t it about time we found out? I’ve just come off the Egyptian Tombs slot machine and am hungry for more of the yellow metal!
The Graphics
Gold Collector Hyper Hold slot has transparent reels and is set in a deep dark tunnel framed by a small stone entrance. There’s also a rail track going off into the distance. At the left of the reels you’ll see the jackpot amounts as carved wooden maps, which is a nice touch.
A banjo-based Western ditty makes up the soundtrack to your spins and is a chirpy addition to the slot design.
Gold Collector Slot Game Play
The Gold Collector slot comes with 5 reels, 4 rows and 50 paylines. That’s quite a few more than games like Play’n GO’s Book of Dead slot with it’s 10 paylines.
The maximum win possible is 1,200x your stake, and you can place your wagers from 0.10 coins per spin up to a maximum of 100.00 coins per spin.
What about the pay-table? Well, the 10, J, Q, K & A from the card deck will make up the lower values. While at the opposite end you’ll find pickaxes, spades, lanterns, a gold-filled trolley and the white-bearded mining fellow, inspecting a nugget. It’s got that El Paso Gunfire slot vibe, you know the Wild West look and feel.
The game logos are Wild icons and will land on reels 2,3 and 4. They will help you form wins by substituting for any other standard symbol.
Finally, the sticks of dynamite are your Scatters, while the gold coins with the cash values on them will set off the HyperHold bonus. Read more below…
The Bonuses
HyperHold Feature
Landing at least 3x of the shiny golden coins and you will set off the rather thrilling Gold Collector Hyperhold feature.
Now, only the reels with a triggering coin on it will be in play – and a spin-o- meter will appear at them. You’ll be given 3x spins and if a new gold coin hits one of the reels in play, the meter will reset back to 3 – meaning you get another 3 spins. The bonus will finish when all either all the positions are filled with gold coins, or you’ve used up all the spins.
Oh, and one more crucial thing! Each reel comes with a fixed jackpot. And if you fill the whole reel with matching gold coins, you’ll win it… Bravo!
Reel 1 – Mini 10x your bet
Reel 2 – Minor 20x your bet
Reel 3 – Maxi 50x your bet
Reel 4 – Major 100x your bet
Reel 5 – Grand 1,000x your bet
Free Spins
Land 3x of the Scatter symbols on the middle three reels, you’ll win 8 Free Spins. During the round it’s possible to set off the HyperHold feature – and you can also re-trigger the Free Spins round itself by hitting 3x more sticks of dynamite.
The Monkey Verdict
Gold Collector slot is a solid medium variance game – with a few thrills and spins along the way to keep you guessing.
Just don’t hold out for the grand jackpot! You could be waiting a while…
