Relive the Gold Rush and make your own fortune with 3 Oak’s fantastic Hit the Gold Slot. It’s filled with lovable characters and rewarding bonus features that raise the anticipation. We were a fan of the overall look and feel of the game, too, but the free spins game won our hearts.
That’s mainly because all the high paying symbols are present, which helped us win a lot more than we hoped! The Bonus Game was exciting too, and we just kept our eyes peeled for more gold symbols to land.

Land three Scatter symbols and you’ll get eight free spins. During this round, only high paying symbols will appear. Scatters will also appear, so if you land three more, you’ll get eight new free spins. We didn’t manage to retrigger the feature, but we loved it nonetheless. We won ₹51,534 during this round!
You’ll notice there are gold chunks all over the reels. That’s actually the bonus symbol! Collect six during the main game or free spins round, and you’ll enter the Bonus Game, where no other symbol but gold will be present. You begin the round with three respins, but every time a new piece of gold stays on the reels, the spins reset. This goes on until you either collect 15 pieces or there are no more respins. If it’s the second case, all values written on the symbols will be summed up and your win will be awarded.
Some of the gold pieces will have the jackpot names written on them instead of numeric values. The Mini (20x your bet), Minor (50x), and Major (150x) jackpots can be won during the Bonus Game, while the Grand Jackpot of 2,000x your stake is awarded if you collect all 15 Bonus symbols.
The old miner, who is the face of this slot, is also the Wild symbol. He can replace all other symbols except Scatters and Bonus symbols. We saw him during almost every spin, and he helped us score more!
This was a very fun slot that we loved playing for the features. Though we didn’t win the Grand Jackpot, we still had a great time and will keep coming back to it. After all, the Bonus Game and Free Spins are the real stars of the show. They weren’t the easiest to trigger, but we loved the challenge and were rewarded well for it. In fact, we won over ₹85,212 in total!
We couldn’t recommend this game enough.

If you want a darker twist on this classic theme, try Dead Canary from NoLimit City. This is a bit creepy but still high-quality graphics give this game that authentic NoLimit City feel, and so do the mechanics and bonuses. Cascading reels are one of our favourite features, as they make every spin completely unique and the game more dynamic.
The main downside is that the RTP is 94.15%, which is much lower than Hit the Gold at 95.66%. So you won’t be hitting those wins as often.
Go deep into the mines and come out on top a winner with this amazing slot by Relax Gaming. It also has cascading reels, but this time we were the most impressed by the expanding Wilds. They make the game more rewarding and the layout more fun. We’re sure, you’ll love this game as well, especially since it has a progressive jackpot.
But, the RTP is at 94%, which is a lot less compared to Hit the Gold, so be prepared for a lower win frequency.
