Hunt For Gold Slots

Set sail on an epic journey to find the long lost buried treasure with this video slot by Play'n Go software. Hunt for Gold has 5 reels but only 5 paylines, meaning that swashbuckling spinners and buccaneering bettors will have to have make sure they have their sea legs on and their wits about them if they are going to reap the benefits of this game.

However, players will get some clues on their search for gold thanks to a couple of extra element bonus games, including an explosive pick 'em treasure map side game and a dizzying wheel of fortune bonus in which punters can win one of three progressive jackpots. And if that isn't enough then bettors can take matters into their own hands by playing one of two gamble games.

There Be Treasure Ahead...

There's something about the theme of pirates that people just can't get enough of. The pirate adventure has been one of the most loved genres in the world of literature since R. L. Stevenson wrote his 1883 tale of Treasure Island, the archetypal story of “buccaneers and buried gold”. Nowadays, pirates are everywhere, from blockbuster Hollywood film franchises to fancy dress parties. And even slot machines, as is evident from Hunt for Gold, one of many pirate-themed video slots out there on the market.

With that in mind, it is no surprise that the game's reels are framed within an ornamental frame in front of a dramatic seascape at night time. And if you look carefully enough, then you might just spot that iconic Jolly Roger symbol emblazoned on the front of a typical tricorn pirate hat.

Although, despite its swashbuckling theme, this Play'n Go slot machine retains some degree of classic arcade charm about it. That is because there are number of symbols which take after timelessly traditional arcade slot symbols such as cherries, lemons, grapes, lemons and lucky 7s. Even so, these retro icons are given the seven seas treatment and they have been pirate-ified to resemble sailor tattoos. Overall, the graphics of this slot machine are a little bit dated in comparison to more contemporary video slots which use 3D animations.

Cash in Your Doubloons

With 5 fixed paylines on the reels, players will might find that this game requires a little bit more patience than most video slots. Although, players will be glad to know that the paylines pay in both directions, from left to right as well as from right to left. That effectively means that there are 10 different ways for spinners to line up three or more matching icons and win the following line bet multipliers:

The available line bet wagers in Hunt for Gold range from as little as 0.01 credits to 2.00 credits, making for a maximum possible bet of 10 credits.

Therefore, the biggest possible win in the base game is limited to just 300 credits. Nonetheless, spinners can boost their wins by playing a “Double Up” or “Triple Up” gamble game, both of which ask players to pick from a set of icons to increase their prizes.

Bonus Bounty Ahoy!

Spinning pirates will be pleased to hear that there is plenty more treasure to be found buried deep in the bonus games on this slot machine. First of all, punters can activate a special treasure map bonus game by finding 5 scattered treasure chests in any position on the reels. This will take spinners to an old treasure map where they will be able to see a variety of different treasure chests.

The aim of the game is simple, use your dynamite sticks to blow up a location of your choice to win a total bet multiplier. Players must proceed with caution, however, because they will only be able to keep the prize from the last chest that they open. So, you must choose whether to stick or blow up another chest for the chance to win even more bonus bounty.

Hunt for Gold also features the standard Play'n Go bonus feature which provides lucky bettors with the chance to play for one of three progressive jackpots. All you have to do is find three or more golden rings scattered on the reels and you will be taken to an exiciting side game with three wheels of fortune. There is a “Tasty”, “Luxury” and “Dream Chance” kitty, each of which is bigger than the last but all of which will keep on increasing in value as the game goes on.

Worth a Punt?

Hunt for Gold offers up some fairly familiar spins with its blend of retro slot machine symbols and buccaneering pirate bonus action. As such, this game has a certain classic element about it, even though it is technically a contemporary video slot. Regardless of the theme, this game is bound to entice many a punter thanks to its potential to pay one of three progressive jackpots.
