Grab The Gold. Review

With Grab The Gold!, studio 3 Oaks makes a foray into the niche of mining-themed slots, taking players underneath to dig for gold and riches. Packed with numerous fun extras and bonus features, the game offers massive rewards and jackpots up for grabs.

Once you load in, you’ll find yourself in a pretty familiar environment. The actions of the game take place deep inside the earth, in a goldmine, which isn’t something we rarely see in the slots world, so expect pretty average decor. It’s mostly rocks and tunnels that make up the backdrop, and in the center is sitting a standard 5x4 reel setup with 20 fixed ways to play, made up of classic mining symbols and gold. There’s also an upbeat country soundtrack playing whilst you spin the reels, which is also commonly an integral part of slot games utilizing the theme.

Grab The Gold. Slot - Reel Screen

9 different pay symbols appear on the reels, divided into two sections.

The lower lot consists of traditional A-J card ranks, and the higher one includes in ascending order shovels, lanterns, gold sacks, carts, and donkeys, all paying from 3-of-a-kind and more from left to right. Five-symbol wins of card ranks are worth 2.5x your bet, and the premiums pay from 7.5x to 25x your bet for combinations of five. Additionally, the donkey acts as a Wild symbol, standing in for any of the regulars in winning combos.

Grab The Gold. is a highly-volatile slot, meaning that it might take you some time until something decent pops up, but payouts can be really sizeable. The RTP clocks in at 95.71%, which is slightly below the average figure across the industry.

Finally, bets vary from £0.2 at the lowest up to £27 at the highest, which should appeal to many, except for maybe some high-rollers.

Grab The Gold. Slot Features

The Miner and Gold symbols are what you have to keep an eye on in order to achieve big payouts. Miners are Collect symbols, while the latter are cash symbols, displaying random cash values. When one or more Miner appears in view simultaneously with one or more Gold symbol, it collects all visible values and pays them to the player.

Additionally, there are Chests, which are Mystery symbols. Upon being collected, they transform randomly into one of the jackpot values, which can be the following:

• Mini Jackpot - 20x the bet.
• Minor Jackpot - 50x the bet.
• Major Jackpot - 100x the bet.
• Grand Jackpot - 500x the bet.

Grab The Gold. Slot - Cash Collect

If multiple Collect symbols appear on the same spin, the cash prizes are collected separately for each miner. The same applies to the Mysery Symbols, meaning that each jackpot can be won multiple times.

The main attraction of the Grab The Gold. slot is the Free Spins feature.

Landing 3, 4, or 5 Scatter symbols anywhere on the reels during the base game awards 10, 12, or 15 spins respectively.

More than that, each Scatter symbol that does not lead to the trigger of the bonus game contributes to the pot sitting above the reels. You’ll see a gold pile up here, and it grows exponentially when Scatters are collected. When the pile is big enough, an extra round of free games can be activated at random on any paid spin.

Back to the free spins, that’s where most wins come from. The bonus game operates in a similar way to the base game, but there are several major adjustments. You get bigger winning opportunities since when the Collect symbol appears on the reels without cash symbols, a random number of Gold symbols can be added to award a win, or random reels can respin to drop Gold symbols.

During the free games, each Collect symbol is collected itself and added to the progress bar sitting on top. When enough are collected, players receive additional spins, as well as the Multiplier value on the Collect symbol, gets increased, as follows:

• 4 symbols - awards +10 Free Spins with a 2x Multiplier for the Collect symbol.
• 8 symbols - awards +10 Free Spins with a 3x Multiplier for the Collect symbol.
• 12 symbols - awards +10 Free Spins with a 10x Multiplier for the Collect symbol.
