California Gold Slots is a trip back in history to the mines of southern California where lots of gold was found and today there is still a chance of finding more. Symbols in this game reflect the mining life and apart from the miner and mine entrance symbols also include picks, nuggets of gold, carts filled with gold and dynamite. Players can try out this game before placing real money bets and this does give them a chance to get to know the game and all of the features that include a wild, a scatter and two different bonus games.
Wild Miner with Special Bonus Game
The wild symbol is the miner and he only appears on reels 2, 3 and 4. When he does appear on one of these reels he can substitute for other symbols in order to complete a winning payline. In this case the winnings are doubled for that spin. With the miner appearing on all three reels at the same time a bonus game is triggered. In the bonus game the players chooses one of the mines out of four choices and then watches as the miner goes along the mine picking up gold. The amount of gold that the miner has collected is then weighed and this weight is multiplied with the coin bet placed giving the player a cash bonus payout.
Gold Nuggets Bonuses
The scatter symbol is the gleaming gold nugget and this offers players multiplying payouts. Five of the nuggets on the screen award the player 100x the coin bet placed, four award the player 15x the coin bet placed, three award the player 5x the coin bet placed and two award the player 2x the coin bet placed. Three and more of the nuggets on screen also triggers 10 free spins for the player during which all winnings are tripled. The free spins can be triggered again as can the bonus wild game. There is also an auto play option that allows the player to preset the number of spins that he wants the game to run for consecutively and this can be stopped at any time. Gold digging was always very lucrative and continues to be so with this exciting slots game.
