Goat Getter (Push Gaming) Slot Demo & Review

Animals – just what is it about them that makes them such a fertile breeding ground for great online slots? Whether it’s the Black Bull games by Pragmatic Play or Animal Madness, it’s an enduring theme that doesn’t look like it is going to run out of steam any time soon. Despite its name, however, Goat Getter isn’t your typical animal-themed slot machine – the reels are filled with symbols that bear little resemblance to the subject matter in question, and it’s only really the goats that appear during the free spins that would give you any clue that this was a goat-themed game at all.

The highest-paying symbols on the paytable are the three chests – the Red Chest has a maximum payout of 500x the total bet for a maximum combo of 18 or more symbols, whilst the Purple Chest can pay up to 300x if you can get super-lucky with those. The Green Chests pay just 200x, but that’s still a very respectable paytable win that beats pretty much any other slot game on the market. There are three medium pays, too – Crystals, Mushrooms, and Eggs, which pay 75x, 60x, or 45x the total bet for 18+ symbol combinations, respectively. As for the low pays, those are represented by the playing card suits, with the Hearts paying 30x, Spades at 25x, the Clubs at 20x, and Diamonds valued at 15x for wins of 18 or more.

There’s no problem with the betting ranges either – €0.10 to €100.00 for the maximum/maximum permitted bets, respectively; the only strange bit comes when you enable the bonus bet, which has the rather strange function of increasing the cost per spin by 54%? I’m not sure what that’s about, but thankfully, it increases your RTP and guarantees more bonus rounds per session.

The basic gameplay of Goat Getter relies on a five-reel, six-row layout, but it’s a scatter-pay machine, meaning that you don’t need to worry about any payways or paylines. Instead, match up six identical symbols anywhere on the playfield, and you will be rewarded with a prize. As mentioned previously, the lowest possible prizes are paid for hitting six symbols, but much larger payouts are reserved for wins of 18 or more symbols.

Coin Pots / Coin Drop

Coin pot symbols have an instant payout attached to them, but you can only collect the value of those prizes when six or more coin pots land on the screen. If between six and nine coin pots are visible on the screen, you’ll receive a small cash prize of between 0.5x and 4x the total bet, whilst special features are granted for greater numbers of pots. In the base game, these features are nothing to shout about; however, during the bonus round, the almighty goat symbol may appear and turn your fortunes around In a split second!

Three bonus symbols will award between 6 and 12 free spins, whilst four or five bonus symbols increase this to either 10-16 or 14-16 free spins, respectively.

Free Spins

The free spins feature has the addition of the special goat symbol, which is a coin pot collector. When there is at least one coin pot in view and a goat, the goat will collect all of the instant prize symbols visible on the screen. Additionally, each goat collected will be added to the meter at the side of the reels, where it’s possible to win more spins and receive a higher collector multiplier.
