Gold Money Frog

NetEnt’s new slot: Gold Money Frog!

Step into this Asian-themed slot and enjoy what NetEnt has to offer. Bringing us this brand-new progressive jackpot slot in the form of Gold Money Frog, we see extra features and jackpots to entice the player into the stunning slot. Graphically this slot is beautiful with a pond in the foreground, surrounded by lotus blossoms and leaves. It’s basic, but powerful and reminds players of the slot’s theme every second. With 5 rows and 3 reels, it is the usual formation for the grid. With 25 pay lines there is plenty of chances to win.

Wagers to win with!

The bet range for this slot is reasonable, ranging from 25p to £50 per spin. This gives enough manoeuvrability for all players to enjoy the slot, without outstretching their budgets. With both high rollers and beginners being able to enjoy this slot, it acts as an all-rounder for players! The most disappointing thing about this slot has to be the Return to Player. Settling between 92.31% and 92.96%, it could be considered a truly awful RTP. The only saving grace is the enjoyability of the slot makes up for the poor RTP.

Littering the reels we have…

There are 8 base game symbols which come in the form of playing cards and picture icons. The playing card symbols of A, K, Q and J are on the lower side of the symbol pay outs, but still offer pretty graphics for the player. Higher paying picture icons include the kite, bridge, owl and gold frog. The latter is worth 20 times the stake when matching five on the pay lines. All symbols need three matching symbols to win, except for the golden frog which only needs two to win! There is also the Wild symbol which substitutes for all the paying symbols of the slot. Like the frog it only needs two to form a pay line. The lantern on the reels acts as the scatter and is used in the triggering of features! Like the Wild and Frog this also pays out on only 2 symbols. Unlike other symbols, a scatter win is applied to the whole bet, not just the line bet winning the player as much as 400 times the stake for five on a line!

Features for the players...

As mentioned above the lantern is used to trigger features, in particular the Free Spins feature. Landing 3, 4 or 5 lantern scatters will result in 10, 20 or 30 free spins given to the player respectively. During the free spins feature, any wins with a scatter are given a x3 multiplier on them! There are also the jackpots and to get one of these you much land three or more of the Bonus Symbol on the reels. This will lead to the slot being moved to the Bonus Wheel, which is split into 12 sections: 4 of these segments contain money wins, up to £100; 4 sections are for the Minor Jackpot; 3 segments are for the Major Jackpot; 1 segment is for the Super Jackpot. The average pay outs for the jackpots is as follows: Minor is approximately €255, Major is approximately €1,860 and Super is approximately €35,700. Once won, the jackpot returns to their start-up value (€50, €500, €5000 respectively of the jackpots).

Conclusion

While it’s not the greatest slot we’ve ever seen, there is something appealing about the graphics and the prospect of the jackpots. However, with such a low RTP it is hard for us to recommend this slot for the higher rollers, with the potential of few big wins coming your way.
