Wild Symbols

Who’s the most important character in a Wild West gold rush scene? It’s the Prospector, of course! He’s the guy digging for gold or sifting through the waters for a lucky nugget. In Gold Rush slot, the Prospector is YOU! The Prospector serves as the wild symbol and applies coin wins when it meets up with other symbols on the reels to form winning combinations. For example, if you land two Bags of Gold on the reels, together with a wild Prospector symbol, the wild acts as a third Bag of Gold, and you’ll win for landing three of the same on the reels. The wild symbol appears on all the reels in the game and rewards no matter what bet amount has been selected.

Multiplier

The multiplier feature in Gold Rush is linked to the wild Prospector symbol. When the wild symbol creates a winning combination, a 2 x multiplier kicks in, and payouts are doubled. If two wild symbols form a winning combination, the rewards are quadrupled! In addition, any winning combo created by the scatter symbol will be immediately doubled thanks to the 2 x multiplier.

Scatter Symbol

The Gold Nugget symbol acts as the scatter symbol in this game. If the symbol happens to turn up anywhere on the three enabled pay lines to complete a winning combination, you’ll win.

How to Play Gold Rush Slot

Because this is a classic slot game, you won’t have to spend extra time learning to play Gold Rush. This is the ultimate plug-‘n-play slot.

• Check out all the betting options available (below the reels).
• Also, check out the paytable displayed to the left of the reels, where you can see how much each bet provides if you wager one, two or three coins of the same value.
• Choose how much you wish to wager and how many coins.
• Take note that you will win bigger payouts when you choose to play all three coins.
• Once you’ve made your decision, spin the reels.
• When the reels come to a standstill, you will see the outcome, and if you have managed to line up winning combinations, you will receive the credits to your total.

Main Prizes to be Won in Gold Rush Slot

We’re not claiming you can get rich when playing Gold Rush slot, but we know that winnings come frequently.

If you play with the maximum number of three coins, the available top return on Gold Rush slot is 400 coins. But remember that wild symbol multiplier we spoke about above? Where we said that if two wild symbols form a winning combination, the rewards are quadrupled? If you apply this multiplier, you stand in line to win the maximum payout of 1,600 coins, which is pretty decent in our books.

Some symbols with higher payouts include the Pan of Gold and Moneybag.

Why do South African players enjoy playing Gold Rush slot?

✅ Classic Slot … With a Twist

If you’re a fan of classic slot games, this is definitely a title that you won’t want to miss.  There is something rather innocent about playing a simple, three-reel, one-line game. On the other hand, Rival has managed to furnish Gold Rush slot with a wild and a scatter symbol and multipliers, which is not always an easy feat on a game this size. This ‘traditional-slot-with-a-twist’ feel to Gold Rush slot could explain why it is still so popular so many years on.

✅ Good Betting Range

A slot with a good betting range immediately ups its appeal because more players are drawn to it. We wouldn’t call Gold Rush slot a high-roller game because many others have much higher betting limits. But we will say that it’s not limited to being a penny slot machine only. Yes, you have a minimum 0.01 betting limit if you want to stick to super-low stakes, but you can also bet the maximum 10.00 coin. Three of those give you a max bet of 30.000.

✅ Mobile Friendly

Over the years, Rival Gaming has made nearly all its games playable on mobile, and that includes Gold Rush slot as well. South Africans like that they can access the game from their smartphones or tablets, wherever they may be and at any time of the day or night, and play to their hearts’ content.

✅ Pleasant, Whimsical Feel

Gold Rush slot doesn’t boast about being a 3D slot with movie-like effects. But it has some basic animations and fun cartoon images that give it a pleasant and whimsical feel. Design choices are a matter of taste among online slot players, and some players may feel that it's a little old-fashioned. But on the whole, this is a charmingly minimalistic game with the chance to win quite often.
