Features

As mentioned in the introduction, the big draw in terms of gameplay for Rolling in Gold is the re-spins features. Both the Gold and Diamond spins have a fun gold collecting aspect to them but only Diamond spins have the additional multipliers. However, as you will discover, this game has a lot more on offer besides.

For example, Rolling in Gold also has a Mystery Symbols feature. This bonus focuses on the mystery symbol which in this game is a barrel of dynamite. Every one of these symbols which lands transforms into the same matching symbol. The more of the same symbol there is on the board, the more likely you are to score a win. When you trigger a win, a payout calculation follows considering the matching symbols in their new positions.

The first special spins feature is the Gold Spins feature. To trigger this bonus, players must land dynamite wilds on reels 1 and 2 on the same spin while also landing a golden nugget symbol on reel 3. The game will then move the setting to a new part of the mine. For Gold Spins you are granted 3 re-spins with the gold nuggets which helped to trigger the feature being held in place. For this feature, you will only see three different things in the spaces -a blank space, a gold nugget, or diamonds. Every golden nugget has an instant cash value attached to it.

Landing additional gold nuggets whilst in the bonus game locks the new nugget in place and resets the number of free re-spins you are given back to 3. When the re-spins have elapsed, a calculation follows, adding all of the values that you have collected together for a pay-out.

The Diamond Spins however are what you really want though. They are triggered from within the Gold Spins feature by landing 3 of the diamond symbols. Do this and you will be given a new set of re-spins to play after the gold spins have played out. In this new set of spins, of which there are 3, the reels on the left-hand side of the screen spin to determine a multiplier of either 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x or 10x. The values of the nuggets in the remaining wheels are then multiplied by the relevant bonus multiplier and attached to the diamonds in the new spins round. After the spins have elapsed, a calculation is made and a payout follows.
The same steps then apply to your next two spins. Landing big multipliers and a collection of high-value diamonds is how you collect the top payouts in this game.

Conclusion

The appropriately named Rolling in Gold makes for a fun game to play in the afternoon with a cup of tea, as it is not overly complicated and has a light-hearted theme that will put a smile on your face. Get into the Gold and Diamond spins and players will be impressed by how much they can earn, especially with the highly lucrative diamond spins.
