Gimme Gold Megaways

Grab your sharpest pickaxe and join the Wild West mining adventure in this 6-reeled online slot machine from Inspired Gaming, a beautiful online game, although not so innovative since it borrows some cues from Blueprint Gaming‘s gold mining themed slot Diamond Mine Megaways.

Nevertheless, this release offers you a unique experience thanks to its vibrant visuals, inspiring soundtrack, and a great pack of features that include an infinite number of free spins with expanding multipliers that can lead you to win a maximum prize of 25000x the stake!

Theme and Symbols

This Megaways-style online release (see here) takes punters to the West, where they get to join the rush for the precious metal and stunning treasures!

If you have played any of the online releases featuring the same theme, you will know what to expect when it comes to its visuals.

The action takes place during a hot summer day with a background showing familiar Western plains with cactuses on both sides of the completely wooden reels that boast a big Megaways game window.

Your 'hard work' will be accompanied by an upbeat, banjo-style soundtrack playing while you spin.

On the reels, you will find a mix of playing card symbols from 9 to A with more theme-related symbols showing shovels, pickaxes, minecarts, and the wacky prospector himself. 

The Wild symbol is an icon with the World itself across it, while a wooden barrel and a dynamite bundle act as the Scatter and the Mystery symbol, respectively!

Betting Options and Other Functions

This mining-themed online release comes with high volatility, while an RTP comes with a solid percentage of 96.5%, but, more importantly...

...the game comes with a minimum number of 64 bet ways, going to a maximum of 117649!

The action is played across a 6-reel layout with varying numbers of rows going from 2 to 7.

Before you start spinning, you should set your bets that start at 0.2$ and go only up to 10$ per spin, which may not appeal to certain types of punters; nevertheless, there is a pretty good maximum payout of 25000x your total stake!

When it comes to symbols, the most rewarding standard symbol is the wacky prospector, paying up to 50x your total stake, while, on the lower side, we get familiar 9-10 royals.

The game also features Wild symbols appearing on the horizontal tracker only; however, they do not have any value on their own, as they only replace other regular symbols.

Special Features

Before you start using the game's main bonuses, the devs have given you the chance to choose whether or not you want to activate the Fortune Bet option and increase your regular bet size by 50 % while getting more barrel Scatters across the reels to increase your bonus round chances. 

Now, as you might expect, every winning combination triggers the Cascading Wins feature, making all winning symbols removed and replaced by new ones dropping from above.

Pay attention to a bundle of dynamite sticks mystery symbols that can land on any position and randomly change into one of the regular pay symbols, thus increasing the chance of winning big.

Lastly, thanks to the game's Scatter symbols, you can trigger the Free Spins feature. To do that, you will need at least four of them, in which case you will get 12 extra spins, with each additional symbol awarding +2 spins, going up to 80.

But, here's the kicker!

This bonus round starts with an x1 win multiplier, increasing by +1 with each successive cascade.

Should you land another three or four Scatters, you will get 5 or 10 additional free spins, respectively!

Conclusion

If you want to play an online slot that offers something new and innovative, this 6-reeled game is not for you. However, that does not mean Gimme Gold! Megaways is not a decent online release, with an interesting theme, simple gameplay, and a good pack of features!

Thanks to its 117649 bet ways, mystery symbols, free spins, and progressive multipliers, punters will get to experience a decent gaming experience with a chance to earn up to an impressive 25000x the stake!
