Gold King

The creators at Play’n GO serve up some royal riches in this 5-reel, 3-row slot, built around a predictable theme that lends from Greek mythology.

Get ready to grapple with Super Spins, Golden Spins, Wilds and Scatters in your pursuit of golden treasure across the 20 paylines in play.

Design

Looks-wise, there’s nothing ground-breaking on show. The grid face sits in front of a mountains pile of gold coins locked in a vault, with gilded Symbols comprising playing card icons, along with Gold Bars, Amulets, and the King’s Crown. The Wild is represented by the Rose, which appears in Stacks of 6 or 7.

The game’s setting and accompanying Symbols contribute to a sense of opulence, and that flamboyance is carried through to the apt audio track.

Gold King Super Stacks

Before every spin, one randomly-selected Symbol proceeds to fill 12 consecutive slots in each reel - also known as Super Stacks.

Gold King Super Spins

Land 3 Gold King Scatters across reels 1, 3 and 5 to trigger the Super Spins round, which comes complete with both Stacked and Expanding Symbols.

To kick off the bonus feature, 10 Free Spins are yours immediately, but you can add to your balance each time by catching more Gold King Scatters with every subsequent Super Spin. Here’s the number of Super Spins you can earn with every turn:

• 1 Scatter: 1 Free Spin
• 2 Scatters: 2 Free Spins
• 3 Scatters: 10 Free Spins

What’s great is that there is no ceiling to the total number of additional spins you can collect during the round. And as Amulet, Crown and Gold Bar symbols transform into Expanding Wilds, you’ve potential for some sizeable Super Spin wins which can stretch up to 80x your bet. Look out for the game’s Wild, the Rose symbol, which populates the reels in stacks of 6 and 7.

With no limit on the amount of Super Spins up for grabs, this is a generous addition to the game that does need propping up in places.

Gold King Golden Spins

On occasion, you’ll notice the playing grid become illuminated, which launches the Golden Spin round. This bonus feature sees reels 1, 3 and 5 locked into place with matching symbols, before spinning the remaining two reels.

Minimal payouts are common in this high variance feature, but which can yield handsome rewards whenever identical Symbols appear in the second and fourth reels.

High Volatility

Gold King ranks high on the volatility index, boasting a top win worth 5,000x your stake. Combined with unlimited Free Spins and Stacked Wilds, there is plenty of potential to score a bumper payday.

Gold King Mobile

As with all other titles in the developer’s library, Gold King is fully optimised for mobile play, so you can grab your slice of ancient treasure whenever and wherever the time suits.

The Verdict

Renowned software house Play’n GO won’t be remembered solely on the merits of this particular offering. It is easy to get to grips with, so players can dive straight in without too much fuss. What’s more, a little patience can see you rewarded with payouts towards the higher end, especially via the Free Spins round.

However, we do find the concept a little stale, and it leaves us wanting more out of a game that promises a lot given its tried and tested formula. Moreover, be prepared to endure prolonged lean streaks, given the game’s highly volatile nature.
