This new game family from Ainsworth (the other launch game is “Fortunes”) includes a persistent-state feature that increases prize amounts, and a picking bonus that can result in various numbers of free games with multipliers.
The base game is a five-reel, 243-ways-to-win video slot. During the primary game, landing golden ingot symbols increases the prize amounts for various line combinations. Other ingot symbols increase the number of 2X, 3X or 4X Free Games. The increased amounts stay in place until that line combination or free-game round is hit.
During paid games, any three or more scattered Free Games symbols trigger the Lucky Scroll Bonus. The player chooses a coin from the selections. The chosen coin will reveal either free games, 2X, 3X or 4X, and the player will be awarded eight free games, or the current free game count for 2x, 3X or 4X free games, respectively.
The game also includes 33 “mini meters.” The mini meter feature will allow players to visually see possible wins with pays that may even be higher for lower symbol counts. It gives the player the opportunity to chase the free games and prizes. This feature may incentivize players to play a little longer in hopes of getting the big win.
