Bonus Rounds in Gold Strike
Wild Symbol
The Wild Symbol can substitute for any other regular symbol to help create winning combinations - and can only land on reels 2 to 6.
Gold Strike Feature
This is activated when a Cash Symbol and a Collect Symbol land on the reels at the same time. The Collect Symbol, which only lands on reels 1 and 6, will gather up all Cash Symbol values - which could include one of the big Cash Prizes:
- Mini Prize: 25x your bet
- Major Prize: 250x your bet
- Mega Prize: 2,500x your bet
Bonus Spins
If you land 3 or more Scatter Symbols, you’ll trigger the Free Spins. You’ll then need to choose between two options: Wild Strike or Cash Strike, and the rewards depend on how many scatters triggered the bonus round:
- 3 Scatters: 8 Wild Strike Spins or 1 Cash Strike Spin
- 4 Scatters: 8 Wild Strike Spins or 1 Cash Strike Spin + 20x your bet
- 5 Scatters: 8 Wild Strike Spins or 1 Cash Strike Spin + 100x your bet
- 6 Scatters: 8 Wild Strike Spins or 1 Cash Strike Spin + 500x your bet
Wild Strike
If you choose this option, it will then remove all Cash, Collect, and Cash Prize Symbols and activate the increasing Wild Multiplier.
- The Wild Multiplier will start at 1x and increase by 1x every time a Wild Symbol appears on the reels.
- The multiplier will only be applied to wins that involve a Wild Symbol.
- If you land 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 Scatter Symbols, you’ll get an extra 4, 8, 12, 20, or 30 more Free Spins.
Cash Strike
This feature will mean that only Cash, Collect, and Cash Prize Symbols can land on the reels. You will be guaranteed to land a Collect Symbol on every spin, and this will gather up all Cash and Cash Prize values into the Cash Strike Trail - as follows:
- 9 Cash Symbols: 1 extra spin with a 2x multiplier.
- 10 Cash Symbols: 1 extra spin with a 3x multiplier.
- 11 Cash Symbols: 1 extra spin with a 5x multiplier.
- 12 Cash Symbols: 1 extra spin with a 10x multiplier.
During this feature, Cash Prize Symbols will award you with one of the following:
- Mini Prize: 25x your stake
- Major Prize: 250x your stake
- Mega Prize: 2,500x your stake
