10000X Gold 2 Slot Review
Electric blue on one side, hot magenta on the other: the reels of 10000X Gold 2 sit in a neon void split down the middle by a giant glowing X, bevelled gold edging catching every light on screen, chevrons rippling through the panels like a lit-up dance floor. Almost nothing on these reels is worth spinning for on its own. The whole game is built on the gap between a paytable that pays a quarter of your stake for five of its best symbol and stack multipliers that can run ten times that on a single reel, and whether that gap is worth crossing is the only question here.
4thePlayer have built this one around stacked X symbols and the multipliers they carry, in the studio’s number-obsessed line alongside 10,000x Gold and 10,000 BC 2 DoubleMax. It runs a 5×3 grid at high volatility, with stakes from €0.20 to €20. There’s no published RTP or maximum win figure for this one, so the ceiling is whatever the X symbols decide to do.
Base Game & Features
It’s a five-reel, three-row set-up with ten symbols, and the paytable is short enough to read in one glance. The X symbol is the one that matters, paying from just two of a kind, while everything else needs three. Here’s what each symbol returns as a multiple of your stake:
- X (Gold Box): 2 = 0.05x, 3 = 0.10x, 4 = 0.15x, 5 = 0.25x
- Coin, Dice, Dollar Sign, Gold Bars, Bell: 3 = 0.05x, 4 = 0.15x, 5 = 0.20x
- A, K, Q, J, 10: 3 = 0.05x, 4 = 0.10x, 5 = 0.15x
Those are small numbers across the board, and the gaps between the tiers barely register: five of the best symbol returns a quarter of your stake, and it slides down gently from there. Plain symbol wins aren’t where the money lives. The real work is done by the stack mechanics layered on top, and the paytable list is best read as the floor those mechanics stand on rather than the point of the game.
Stack Xpand
Any stack of X symbols that lands fully in view on a reel triggers the Stack Xpand. The stack collapses into a single symbol carrying a random multiplier between 5x and 10x, and the more X symbols were in the stack, the bigger that multiplier runs.
The size of the multiplier is tied to the stack itself, not to luck after the collapse. A short stack lands at the low end of the range; a reel-filling one pushes towards the top. Multiple stacks can land on the same spin, and their multipliers combine, which is where the larger results come from. A full grid of stacked X symbols, each collapsing into its own multiplier, is the scenario the whole reel set is arranged to produce.
Boosting Fortunes
Gold coins landing on the reels increase one or more of the five Fortune Prizes before a spin resolves. The coins also carry a chance of triggering the Fortune Bonus outright, which is covered below. In the base game, they’re a slow accumulation rather than an event, and a reel can carry boosted prizes for some time before the bonus that pays them arrives.
Which prize a coin boosts isn’t something you choose, so the build-up can land unevenly across the five tiers. That matters only when the Fortune Bonus actually opens: until it does, the boosted values are numbers waiting for a round to pay them.
10000X Gold 2 Free Spins & Bonuses
Free Spins
Three or more Bonus Scatters award the Free Spins round, and the scatter count decides the range you spin for:
- 3 scatters award between 3 and 8 free spins
- 4 scatters award a wider band of 4 to 15
- 5 scatters unlock the full 5 to 25 range
Every spin in the round carries a random award from within your range, so two identical triggers can play out very differently. A five-scatter trigger that rolls low can hand out fewer spins than a lucky three-scatter one. Landing 2 Bonus Scatters mid-round adds 4 more spins to whatever’s left.
Wilds expand to fill the reel they land on and carry a random stack multiplier of up to 12x, which is where the round’s ceiling sits. Double X symbols count as 2 X symbols each, and a full stack of them spins for a boosted stack multiplier, pushing the stack arithmetic past what the base game manages.
Put those pieces side by side and the shape of the round is clear: expanded wild reels with multipliers, doubled X counts feeding longer stacks, and a retrigger that needs only 2 scatters. Nothing in the round changes the underlying paytable, so the multipliers are doing all the lifting.
Fortune Bonus
One or more of the gold coins that land during play can trigger the Fortune Bonus, a pick game with five prizes on offer:
- Mini
- Midi
- Super
- Mega
- Ultra
Each pick reveals one of the five tiers, and the first tier you collect 3 of is the prize you take home. The Max Boost pays the largest prize in the bonus. Because the coins feed the prize values before the bonus opens, the same round isn’t worth the same twice.
The picking structure gives the round a natural stopping point, too: three matching reveals ends it, so a run of matched picks finishes quickly while a mixed board stretches out. Which tier completes first is down to what the picks turn over, not to anything you control.
Bonus Buy
There are two purchase options, and they’re priced a long way apart:
- Free Spins: total bet €50.00
- Stack Xpand: total bet €100.00, a single spin with a guaranteed Stack Xpand win
The Stack Xpand buy costs five times the maximum base stake, which makes it the premium route into the game’s core mechanic. What you’re paying for is certainty: one spin, one guaranteed stack. The Free Spins buy is the cheaper door and the more variable one, since the awarded spin count is rolled from the trigger range rather than fixed.
Our Honest Verdict
Overall Rating: 7.1/10
Playing this is mostly waiting for the one reel that matters. Everything in front of you, the neon X splitting the screen in half, is pointing at a single mechanic, and the reason to choose it is that single-mindedness: when two or three stacks land together, the result can dwarf anything the paytable on its own would ever give you.
That concentration is also the strength. The multiplier ladder scales honestly with the stack in front of you, and the free spins round sharpens it rather than changing the subject. The floor is the problem: plain wins are so thin that a spin without a stack is close to a dead spin, and at high volatility those come in runs.
For players who enjoy one idea done properly, this is an easy game to like. Anyone after variety, or a base game that pays its way between features, will find it thin. The X in the middle of the screen marks where the money is, and for the right player that’s enough.
