Play Dwarven Gold for Free

Everyone knows that if you want to get rich, then it's not a bad idea to get friendly with some dwarves. Because, after all, they know the way to find the best gold in the business. So, if you're wise to the task, then you wouldn't mind having a spin or two of this fantastically themed slot machine by Octopus Gaming, featuring a foursome of jovial dwarf characters who go by the suitably dwarf-like names of Nibbles, Gibbles, Fillydook and Fenthwick. Ok, that sounds a bit silly, we know, but have you ever heard of a gang of dwarves called Gary, Mike, Dave and Steve?

Also making an appearance on the reels is a butterfly icon which is the game's scatter, paying wins without lining up on any particular paylines as well as awarding some free spins to those lucky punters who find three or more fluttering on the game screen. Meanwhile, spinners will be given a helping hand to complete those all-important winning combinations with a wild black cat icon. So, all in all, there is every possibility for spinners to find a full row of the slot's most valuable icon – the golden treasure chest itself.

Not only is this slot machine full of enchanting gameplay features which draw out the narrative element of the theme, but it is also aptly designed to evoke the fairy-tale nature with some diligently designed artwork. Despite being presented in two dimensions, the icons are beautifully rendered to capture the fertile natural setting as well as the whimsical aspect of the storyline with caricatured facial expressions and simple animations. So, with each winning combination, the dwarves will take a hearty swig from their ale tankards while some suitably magical sound effects will play to transport players far away from the world of reality.

With 25 paylines upon the reels, players will find that those winning lines comes around at a reasonably frequent rate. And when they do, a line bet multiplier prize will be awarded in accordance to how many of which symbol is involved in the win as well as the size of the wagers on the line. Speaking of wagers, punters can place between 1 – 10 coins of the following sizes on each of the 25 fixed paylines: 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20 and 0.50.

The smallest line bet prizes are awarded when sequences of three or more low-end playing card icons appear on a payline. In fact, five 10, J, or Q icons will only multiply the line bet by 75x, while five K or A symbols will award 100x. The dwarf characters offer a little bit more when five of a kind align, with the yellow and blue dwarves each paying 125x, while the red dwarf gives 200x and the purple dwarf fetches wins of 250x the line bet value. However, the biggest line win of all is a 500x prize which is paid when five matching treasure chest symbols appear in a row.

That isn't the biggest win of all, because players can find 5 scattered butterflies to award a 100x total bet multiplier, which will turn a 125.00 total bet into 12,500 coins.

That butterfly symbol is very useful indeed, since three or more on the reels in any position will trigger a round of free spins. This means that spinners will be able to enjoy up to 33 wager-less spins of the reels with a multiplier that is applied to all wins up to 6x the normal payout value.

Dwarven Gold is a novelty 5-reel video slot which packs plenty of charm and whimsy into its 5 reels. The game is adorned with loads of jovial dwarf action, as well as some wholesome natural design features to present a slot machine that is fun and light-hearted to spin. Plus, players have the potential to have a lot of fun indeed if they can line up some free spins with a 6x multiplier for extra big winning opportunities.
