Gonzo's Gold

Gonzo the Conqueror, one of the most popular figures in online slots of all time, embarks on a new aSpinbit in the Gonzo's Gold slot. The game was released by the slot provider NetEnt in October 2021.

The success of Gonzo's Quest (2013), the original game, came immediately and would become an emblem of the NetEnt portfolio. The scout fell sympathetic among the players of online casinos in New Zealand in his aSpinbit in search of the Golden One. Very aware of this, the navigator New Zealand, would become the protagonist of other casino games. From a live casino game, Gonzo's Treasure Hunt, to a virtual version of Gonzo's Quest and its Megaways version that was launched in 2020, and developed by Red Tiger, when it had already been acquired by NetEnt.

The Gonzo's Gold slot has surprised because it no longer uses the Avalanche mechanism and of which it was a pioneer Gonzo's Quest and the one he seemed forever attached to. We will also not enjoy the company and the encouragement that Gonzo gave us next to the reels, in this latest sequel, it will be limited to being a symbol, that is the one with the greatest value of the game. In general, the game has been simplified, but potentially, its gameplay mechanism is well solved and brings just the right emotion to be attractive to players. A high-quality design and with fewer frills around the drums, shows that more and more people are thinking about the fit of mobile device screens than on desktops. The game works and it's always attractive to see Gonzo up and running again.

The reels of the Gonzo's Gold slot, this time, go from the outside of the jungle, to the inside of what looks like an Inca temple, with a grid of 5 reels and 5 rows. As we have already mentioned above, the Avalanches of its predecessor have been changed for a pays cluster system, where the prizes will be paid by getting a minimum of 3 high winning symbols, equal, adjacent to each other, vertically or horizontally, or from 4 equal symbols in case they are low winning symbols.

The game is very versatile and can attract all types of players, who will be able to adjust their bets from $ 0.10 for the lowest spin to $ 200 for the highest value spin. Its volatility will be adjusted between medium and high and its highest theoretical percentage of return to the player reaches 96.11% (RTP). The maximum potential win of the Gonzo's Gold slot is 6,500x times the bet.

In the Gonzo's Gold slot the regular symbols have been divided between high and low win symbols. Among the high-winning symbols we find 3 golden Inca masks with different shapes and colors and the Gonzo symbol, the highest paid in the game and for which we can get to pay 5,000x times the bet if we manage to group 25 identical symbols on the reels. The group of low-winning symbols are those formed by the classic values of the poker deck A, K, Q, J and 10.

As a special symbol we have the scatter, represented by an Inca pyramid. This has a double function, with the power to activate the free spins round it will also work as a wild symbol during the game.

The Gonzo's Gold slot tries to be a simple and uncomplicated game for players, perhaps that is why it has focused its maximum potential on a single bonus feature, its free spins round. To activate it we will need to get a minimum of 3 scatter symbols on the reels. In addition, depending on the number of Golden Pyramids that activate the round we will get a different additional bonus:

• 3 scatter = 10 free spins and a bonus worth x2 the bet.
• 4 scatter = 10 free spins and a bonus worth x20 the bet.
• 5 scatter = 10 free spins and a bonus worth x200 the bet.

As soon as the round is activated, a screen with 9 mysterious question mark symbols will appear, from among which, we will have to select one of them. The symbol that is revealed will become an expanding symbol, it will have the ability to expand if during the free spins round it is adjacent horizontally, or vertically to another equal, and they will complete either a reel or a complete row. Expanding symbols groupings will reward with an additional bonus win.

Gonzo is such a beloved character in online slots, which in general are games well received by players. The sequel Gonzo's Quest Megaways, was like a style update, very similar to the original slot, with cascading symbols, a multiplier function and a free spins round. Gonzo's Gold, maintains a great graphic quality, but has simplified the format, maintains the free spins, but they are the only special feature of the game. Of course, the expansive symbols in the free spins round bring a lot of excitement to the bonus game, and it is appreciated that up to 10 additional spins can be obtained in the round.

Gonzo's Gold comes to provide an intentionally simpler version and cover that niche of players looking for simple games. Its wide range of bets and its medium/high volatility, the game fits all types of player. More moderate is its potential maximum win of 6,500x times the bet, but still, we recommend trying the new Gonzo's Gold aSpinbits.
