the hand of midas slot theme, stakes, pays & symbols

Several myths have become associated with the Greek King Midas, the most common of which is his purported ability to turn everything he touched into gold. It is said that the King eventually died of starvation, which makes me wonder why he couldn’t request that one of his servants feed him before things reached that stage! Whilst the part about being able to turn objects into gold is clearly untrue, it's fascinating to consider what events transpired at the time to inspire the legends. Whatever the case, I’m sure King Midas would be proud that he appears alongside the Greek Gods in modern slot machines such as the Age of Gods franchise!

And now the big question: does the games’ paytable have the Midas touch? It’s natural to see the King himself as the highest-paying symbol, but unfortunately, he only pays 20x your bet for a full payline of five of a kind. There’s a white-haired gentleman next, paying 15x the bet for all five symbols, whilst an unlucky lady who has been turned into a gold statue is worth 12.5x for a complete payline. A chest overflowing with gold is worth 10x your bet; five bowls of fruit will pay you 7.5x, whilst the goblet has a return of 5x. At the lower end of the table, there are five royals with returns of 2.5x or 1.25x for five-of-a-kind. These don’t seem like fantastic payouts, in all fairness, but it’s worth bearing in mind that the wild symbols can multiply these returns many times over.

The betting range follows Pragmatic Play’s usual conventions with minimum/maximum wagers of €0.20 and €100.00, respectively, with plenty of intermediate options between these extremes. So players of all sized budgets are well catered for.

base game & modifiers

The basic gameplay of The Hand of Midas revolves around a standard 5x3 playfield which features 20 fixed paylines. You’ll need three matching symbols on a payline starting from the left to score a win or three scatter symbols anywhere on the reels to land a bonus round.

The main bonus round is triggered whenever three or more scatter symbols land on a single spin. A three-scatter trigger guarantees that your bonus round will pay at least 10x your bet, whilst four or five will increase this guarantee to 20x or 30x your bet, respectively. This doesn’t seem like a huge benefit for landing something as rare as five scatter symbols, but I guess it’s better than nothing!
