Mining for gold is a theme that everyone has seen in a variety of places, and Nothern Lights Gaming has put together their own spin on the concept with their Rocky's Gold slot. The theme centers around a man named Rocky who is looking to blow up some rock in the mines and find what he can find. The graphics are super solid, and the gameplay revolves around a variety of different features. If you like a lot of action and a high hit-rate, then this is a title that will you'll likely enjoy.

Format and Layout

A very solid format creates the foundation for this title. You'll find five reels and three rows with 20 paylines. You can pick your bet sizes based on the total amount you want to wager, and that makes sense in this game because all of the wins are based on multiples of your whole bet size as well. The available betting range goes from $0.20 to $500 per spin, so you're going to have no problem finding a bet size that fits what you're comfortable with.

We want to point out also that some sites may limit the size of the max bet to something in the range of $100. If you are a high roller, and you think this might affect you, then you should contact support at your chosen online casino ahead of time to see what their policies are on max wagers per spin.

Wild Symbols

The wilds are a little atypical here because there's a regular symbol they don't substitute for (the RG symbol). Outside of that and the scatters, they'll substitute for anything else to give you the best payout that you can get on each individual line. Five of a kind of this wild is worth 15x, and you can earn 7.5x for four of a kind or 1.5x for three of a kind as well. These are the same payouts as the highest non-RG regular-paying symbol for reference.

TNT Bonus Feature

There are two TNT symbols that can appear on the third and fourth reels. When they show up adjacent to each other, you'll trigger the TNT Bonus Feature. This works by essentially exchanging low-end symbols for high-end symbols a random number of times. This gives you better chances to get winning combinations, particularly for the higher-level symbols, which means more wins and better chances of them being higher-paying wins.

Wild Bonus Round

On any spin that does not have a winning combination of some type, you can trigger the wild feature. Rocky will step onto the screen and throw dynamite that can have one of three effects. It can turn into a single wild, a number of random wilds on different positions or a big cluster wild. The cluster wild is the most favorable, but the others can all help you to get extra chances to pick up wins on what would have otherwise been a spin without any.

Pay Dirt Bonus

Two or more of the bonus feature triggers the Pay Dirt bonus. If you get two, you'll get either an instant win or five free spins. Three, four or five of the bonus symbol give out 10, 15 or 20 free spins, respectively, and it doesn't matter where the bonus symbols show up on the reels because they're scattered.

During the Pay Dirt free spins, you'll have a chance to pick a feature before each spin. These can give you multipliers, locked wilds and other goodies to increase your chances of winning during the free turns.

Important Symbols and Wins

The RG symbol in gold is the only regular symbol that is not subject to wild substitutions. It's also the only regular symbol that pays for two of a kind or more, and you'll get 25x for five of a kind on a payline. Five of the red gem gets players 15x, and you can earn 12.5x for five of a kind combinations of the blue gem as well. For the green gem, a five of a kind combination gets you 10x.

You can also earn for the four card rank symbols. A 7.5x prize is yours for five of the A or K, and the Q and J have the lowest payouts in the game with 5x for five of a kind. Keep in mind that these are all multiplied by your total bet size.

Overview

Rocky's Gold is a feature-driven game by Northern Lights Gaming that centers around an action-oriented style of play. The theme is somewhat generic, but the graphics is good, and the action from the feature set is pretty serious. If you like games with a high hit-rate and don't mind the somewhat generic concept, then this is likely to be a hit for you.
