Game Overview
When the word ‘heist’ pops up in a game title, you immediately think of a bank job, getaway drivers, and unrealistic car chases taking place through the city. However, that’s not the case in Pragmatic Play’s slot Heist for the Golden Nuggets. Instead, we’ve got a group of bandits ready to pounce to steal the haul of those honest hard working prospectors who have put in all the leg work. Those damn crooks! How unfair. Anyway, Stat-wise, this is a 5-reel slot from Pragmatic with 20 fixed paylines, an RTP of 96%, and a max win of 5,000x the bet.
There’s not really a bucket full of features to tell you about, but we do have special money symbols in the base game that can randomly light up and pay you their value. These symbols become more prominent for the free spins, which are triggered when at least one of them lands on each of the reels 1, 3 and 5. During this bonus, all golden nugget money symbols that appear are stored in a meter, and if your randomly awarded pre-feature character symbol hits anywhere in view, you will be bank the total of that meter each time. Last of all is the bonus buy feature for those who can access it. This will grant instant access to the free spins at the cost of 75x the bet.
Which of the two do you think suits you the best? Hardworking prospector? or a wily bandit ready to do whatever it takes to get themselves a score? Why not find out and give our free demo slot of Heist for the Golden Nuggets a try? It’s available for you to play below.
Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
It’s certainly not uncommon in iGaming that when a new online slot is released, it has a theme based around gold or some kind of heist or robbery. We have Relax Gaming’s Mega Heist, for example, and 4ThePlayer’s 60 Second Heist, or if you want to try out something featuring gold, you’ve got another title from Pragmatic named Old Gold Miner Megaways. So, as you can see, from us not even scratching the surface, both genres are already heavily covered by several providers within the industry. I guess it’s fair to say that one more game being thrown into the mix won’t hurt at all then, will it?
Okay, time to find out what can be won, and the premium paying symbols in Heist for the Golden Nuggets are represented by five shady-looking characters, which pay from 2.5x up to 20x bet if you land five of them across an active payline. The low pays come in the form of four royal symbols, with the Ace and King both paying 2x for a completed line of five, whilst the Queen and Jack both pay 1x bet for a full line of five. In addition, wilds can land on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5, substituting for all regular symbols when they do. Furthermore, when 2, 3, 4, or 5 wilds are used in a winning combo, they multiply the win by x2, x4, x8, or x16, respectively.
We have the usual Pragmatic staking options on hand, so the minimum price to spin the reels starts at €0.20, with a maximum price per play set at €100. You can play at countless choices between these two values, making the slot accessible for both low and high rollers.
Base Game & Modifiers
There’s nothing fancy or out of the ordinary about the playfield on Heist for the Golden Nuggets. The reel formation is of a 5×3 format with 20 paylines in play throughout the base game and bonus round. If a minimum of 3 symbols match from left to right, a win will be credited to the balance.
Money Symbols
Whilst playing the base game, golden nugget money symbols containing values between 0.5x and 250x the bet can land on the reels. These symbols will be unlit, but on random occasions, they can light up, and their values will be awarded as a win.
Heist For The Golden Nuggets Slot Bonus Features
If at least one golden nugget money symbol lands on reels 1, 3, and 5, then the bonus round will be triggered, and 5 free spins will be awarded. Before the round begins, the value of all money symbols that triggered the feature and collected in a meter dubbed the Nugget Value.
Free Spins
As the feature begins, the gun barrel will spin, and you’ll be awarded one of the high value character symbols as your Free Spins Special Money Symbol. For the duration of the bonus round, your special symbol takes the value of the nugget value, awarding you it as a prize each time it lands in view. Five additional spins can be won if at least one money symbol again lands on reels 1, 3 and 5.
Bonus Buy
If you would rather bypass the base game and the bonus buy option is available in your country, you can trigger the free spins at a click of a button at the cost of 75x bet.

Heist For The Golden Nuggets Slot Review Final Thoughts
I'm perhaps a bit of a broken record when talking about Pragmatic Play slots. Yes, they have superbly developed games with awesome graphics, but due to the massive amount of content they pump out, many titles are just run of the mill games.That is the category that I am putting Heist for the Golden Nugget in too. It's a fab looking slot, but it's not going to grab your attention and demand that you play it. Yes, you might try a few spins out, but I don't see this being a slot that players will be shouting from the rooftops about.
