Crypto Gold (PG Soft) Slot Demo & Review

Are all of the cryptocurrencies just a bubble waiting to burst? Or will there be some real longevity in these coins, with a select few going on to be the leading global way of payment? Whatever the case might be, for now, they are very much a phenomenon that has spread to several other digital investment opportunities, namely NFTs. So, obviously, never an industry to miss a trick and a potential theme for an online slot, some developers have taken the plunge and released a title into this niche of slot. We, of course, have all of the best demo slots for you to try, and if you want to explore this genre further, then fire up our Wild Ape demo slot, also from PG, and the NFT Megaways slot from Booming Games.

Our next stop is the pays section, and at the top of the paytable, we have the Miner, who will return 8x the bet for a winning combo of six. This is followed by the Safe at 5x, a Pickaxe at 4x, the Laptop worth 3x, and completing the premium pays are the Mobile Phone and Crypto Card, with equal returns of 1.5x for a full line of six. Dropping down to the lower pays, we have the royal symbols with the Ace and King sharing payouts of 1x, and finally, the Queen, Jack, and Ten all returning 0.4x for a six-of-a-kind win. The slot also features a Wild symbol, which substitutes for all other regular symbols.

PG Soft has incorporated its usual betting structure into Crypto Gold, and players can start spinning for real money from a minimum of €0.20 up to a maximum of €100.

Crypto Gold is played on a 6×6 matrix, and on each spin, individual reels can display between 2 – 6 symbols. This means the game can generate between 576 and 46,656 ways to win on any spin. Players will be awarded a win when three or more matching symbols connect on consecutive reels, starting from the leftmost reel first.

Cascading Reels

Few in-game features are as popular as cascading reels, and PG Soft has been sure to include this entertaining mechanic in Crypto Gold. Players can expect this feature to kick into action when a winning connection of symbols is formed from left to right on the reels. First off, the winning symbols are removed from the reels, which in turn will leave spaces that need to be filled. New symbols then drop from above, giving the player an extra chance to create a new win. It’s possible for a long series of win reactions and cascades to take place, with a new spin only needing to be initiated when you fail to create a new win upon the reels.

Expanding Wilds On The Way

At the start of each spin, some of the symbols that appear on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5 occupy between 2 – 4 rows high and may have a silver frame around them. If these symbols are included in a winning connection, they will transform into a randomly selected symbol from the paytable and then have a gold frame around them. If that symbol is then a part of a win, it will turn into a wild and expand to the full length of the reel it is on, giving players additional chances to win.

Landing four scatter symbols in view on Crypto Gold will award players ten free spins, with each additional scatter that lands thereafter adding a further two spins respectively.

Free Spins Feature

The bonus will begin with a win multiplier of x1 in play. The value of this can be increased by successfully hitting win reactions in the bonus, with each reaction that is achieved incrementing the multiplier by a further x1. During the bonus, a re-trigger is possible, so keep a lookout for the scatter symbols again appearing in view.
