Gold Nuggets is a mining-themed video slot developed collaboratively by 3 Oaks Gaming and Booongo. The game features a unique 3×3 layout with a single payline. The reels are set against the backdrop of a mine shaft, immersing players in the gold mining atmosphere.
The symbols on the reels include various gold nuggets, crystal formations, and dynamite mystery symbols. However, unlike traditional slot machines, Gold Nuggets does not rely on forming winning combinations. Instead, the objective is to trigger the bonus game, a popular Hold & Win style respin feature.
To access the main bonus feature, players need to land any three symbols on the middle row during the base game. The bonus game includes cash symbols paying up to 8x the stake, fixed jackpots (Mini, Minor, and Major), and mystery symbols. Collect symbols are used to claim the prizes and boost them with random multipliers ranging from 2x to 20x. Collecting 9 symbols awards the Grand Jackpot, which offers a maximum payout of 1,000x the stake.
The betting range in Gold Nuggets is flexible, catering to both casual players and high rollers. The minimum bet is $0.10, while the maximum bet reaches $25 per spin. With medium volatility, players can expect balanced gameplay with the potential for substantial wins.
Gold Nuggets is optimized for mobile devices, ensuring a seamless gaming experience across different platforms.
