Collect Feature

Special Cash symbols with a random Cash Value can land at any point during gameplay. Cash symbols can land on all reels, and the Collector symbol only appears on reels 1 and 6.

When a Collect symbol lands at the same time as a Cash symbol, the Collect Feature is triggered. Once active, the Collect symbol will gather up all present Cash symbol values and award the total combined amount.

Respin Feature

When a Collect symbol lands on reels 1 or 6 without a Cash symbol present, the Respin Feature is triggered, awarding 1 Respin. 

During the Respin, reels 1 and 6 lock, allowing all other reels to Respin only Cash symbols and Blanks. During this time, 1 or more Cash symbols are guaranteed to land on the reels.

Rising Rewards Jackpot Feature

When a Cash symbol lands without a Collect symbol in the base game, a special Token is accumulated. When this happens, at least 1 Jackpot Prize to the left of the reel set is increased up to 1x your bet.

  • 1 Token – Increases 1 Jackpot Prize.
  • 2-5 Tokens – Increases 1-2 Jackpot Prizes.
  • 6-15 Tokens – Increases 2-3 Jackpot Prizes.
  • 16-24 Tokens – Increases 3-4 Jackpot Prizes.

Accumulating Tokens over some time increases your chance of triggering the Jackpot Feature. In the Jackpot Feature, Cash and Jackpot Prizes can be awarded, with at least 1 Jackpot Prize being awarded at this time. Each Cash and Jackpot Prize revealed is awarded in the Jackpot Feature.

  • Mini – Starts at 5x your bet, up to a max of 25x your bet.
  • Minor – Starts at 10x your bet, up to a max of 50x your bet.

Rising Rewards Bonus Multiplier

The Bonus Multiplier is displayed in the Bonus Multiplier Meter, which can increase in the base game. The Bonus Multiplier is applied to every win in the Free Spins and Gold Blitz rounds.

The Bonus Multiplier increases by 0.5x each time 2 Scatters land in the base game on reels 1-5 without triggering the Bonus Choice feature. The max multiplier the Bonus Multiplier can reach in the base game is x5.

After the Free Spins or Gold Blitz rounds, the Bonus Multiplier will reset back to x1, which may randomly increase up to +x1 when you return to the base game.

Bonus Choice

When 3, 4, 5, or 6 Scatters land in view, you will be awarded a payout of 1x, 2x, 3x, and 5x your bet respectively, plus a Bonus Choice from the following.

Gold Blitz Extreme: Our Verdict

Fortune Factory Studios takes their beloved Gold Blitz slot to new heights in their latest installment of the series. Gold Blitz Extreme is an electrifying slot with bursts of colour and many exciting features, but is it as extreme as the title suggests?

Those with a taste for extravagant features and mechanics will be pleased with what’s on offer here, but is it a tad too much? Collect and Respin features, Rising Rewards Multipliers, and Jackpot Prizes are just the tip of the iceberg here, and there’s even more for you to wrap your head around.

The good news is that you will never have a dull moment in the base game with all these features to contend with. Missing a Collect symbol to Cash symbols (and vice versa) can still feel very rewarding, unlocking the Respin or Jackpot Feature as a consolation prize.

Landing 3 or more Scatters in the base game opens up the Bonus Choice feature, where you can choose between Free Spins or the Gold Blitz round. The Gold Blitz round offers fewer spins, but it comes with higher potential and possibilities.

During Free Spins, retriggers were being thrown at us from all directions. If you started with a generous number of Free Spins, after the first couple of retriggers, you start to get the ‘when will this end’ feeling…or maybe not!
