Aztec Gold: Extra Gold Megaways Slot Overview

Developer iSoftBet are back with a sequel to one of their most successful releases yet. Aztec Gold: Extra Gold Megaways Slot looks to be an enticing option with the Extra Gold Feature that will up your stake in return for a better chance at landing what could well be a lucrative bonus.

Returning to enjoy some of the Megaways Magic that Aztec Gold had to offer didn’t require much convincing in the first place, but now it’s just too much of an attractive prospect to pass up.

Let’s see what kind of treasures lie within the Ancient Temple this time around.

Temple of Riches

Aztec Gold: Extra Gold Megaways Slot has the same alluring appearance that the original game had, with stand-out graphics, sounds and reels that are adorned with gold.

This emphasis on great graphics and sound was undoubtedly partly responsible for the overwhelming success and response that Aztec Gold had, and it’s great to see it back in a sequel.

Betting and Symbols

Betting options for Aztec Gold: Extra Megaways Slot are as you’d expect from a Megaways Slot. The lowest option is £/€0.20, and the highest option is £/€20. This is without taking into account the Extra Gold functionality which will affect stake.

Symbols in the game will be instantly recognisable, using the same as the original game. From highest to lowest paying, these are: Aztec God, Jaguar, Snake, Eagle, A, K, Q, J, 10 & 9.

There’s also a Wild symbol which can land on reels 2-5 and will substitute for all except for the Sun Disc Scatter symbol.

The Base Game

Aztec Gold: Extra Gold Megaways Slot is a 6 reel slot with up to 117,649 ways to win, which is achieved when all of the 6 reels display their maximum 7 symbols each.

3 or more of any symbol, or 2 or more of the highest paying symbol are needed to form a win.

Cascading symbols have also made a return, meaning that any winning symbols will disappear, leaving room for new symbols to fall in via a cascade, which can result in a chain reaction of wins.

iSoftBet have decided to make the most of the Megaways mechanic with this game yet again, offering various different features that compliment it well.

Aztec Gold: Extra Gold Megaways Slot Gameplay

Max Megaways

The Max Megaways modifier may land on any Base Game spin, guaranteeing that the next spin has 117,649 ways to win.

Extra Gold

One of the more exciting features of Aztec Gold: Extra Megaways Slot is the Extra Gold feature. In the standard game, you’d need 5 Sun Disc Scatter symbols in order to trigger the Free Spins.

If you activate the Extra Gold Feature then you’ll need only 4, with the trade off that your stake is increased by 25%.

Aztec Gold Respins

Aztec Gold Respins is a familiar feature that also served as the bonus for the original game. Landing 4 or 5 Sun Disc Scatters (depending on Extra Gold Feature) will trigger this round.

Megaways matter here, as they will be locked in for the duration of the bonus. More Megaways obviously means more room for more cash values to land, so an ideal set up for this one would be Max Megaways, giving you the best chance to land as many symbols as possible.

Each prize that lands is displayed as a multiplier, and there are jackpot prizes available that may also land on the reels. These are Mini, Major or Mega, which will give you 30x, 100x or 1000x.

Multiplier Mayhem

Multiplier Mayhem is another returning feature, and it’s one that was very popular in the original. Filling all positions on a reel will give a multiplier that will be applied to all wins below it when the wins count up at the end.

Aztec Bet

This new feature will undoubtedly be an exciting one, but sadly UK players can’t take advantage. Aztec Bet is a bonus buy feature, giving players 2 options.

One of the options available is a 100x bonus buy, which will guarantee you the Free Spins. The other is a 150x version, which will guarantee the same thing but at Max Megaways.

Our Verdict

Aztec Gold: Extra Gold Megaways Slot is a nod to the extraordinarily successful original, with added features that make it even more compelling than before.

This game, like the original, is capable of some absolutely monster hits thanks to all if its attractive feature combined.

Triggering the feature on good or Maximum Megaways can really get the adrenaline pumping, and the prospect of landing one of the Jackpots somewhere really makes this a high entertainment game.

RTP will vary in the game depending on if you have the Extra Gold option included or not, making it 95.98% with the option turned off and 96.48% with it turned on.

Aztec Gold: Extra Gold Megaways Slot will be available to play accross selected desktop and Mobile Casinos on the 25/02/2021.
