Gold Raider Slot Review 2024

Gold Raider

Gold Raider is a game which comes with 5 reels and has a total of 20 paylines. In the game a $40,000 prize is offered and a combination of free spins, scatter symbols and a wild make up its features.

Gold Raider is an Indiana Jones like game, with an adventurer as the hero. The action takes place in the jungle and you can see a waterfall behind the reels. It's a beautiful setting, full of color and with a lot of details. The tagline found beneath the Gold Raider logo is “Finding the Throne of Skulls", a worthy adventure for anyone. In this case we have a band of men and the action seems to take place at some point in the second half of the 20^th century, a clue to that being the military jeep that the adventurers are using. That same jeep is both a symbol in the game and it serves as support for the betting options at the bottom of the reels. The symbols include two adventurers, a snake, the jeep, a spider and skulls.

Gold Raider uses coins which have values between $0.01 and $1. A maximum of 5 coins can be used in a bet on one line, with 100 coins being the maximum bet. The $100 maximum bet will result in payouts of up to $40,000. If the coin value is lower the player gets the equivalent of 40,000 coins (8000 times the line bet).

One of the classic features of any modern slot is the wild. In this case the wild is going to expand and cover the reel it is on, giving the player 3 wilds at the same time. The 3^rd reel is the only one to benefit from the wild's presence, so the feature is a bit limited.

Two different bonus rounds exist here and each one will give the player additional prizes which are randomly given. One of them is triggered when the map symbol is at the same time on the 1^st, 3^rd and 5^th reels. The other one has the Gold Raider image on it and it triggers the bonus round when it's on the 2^nd, 3^rd and 4^th reels simultaneously.

A bonus round with a Russian Roulette action is part of the slot as well, activated by a special symbol which has to appear on the second position of reel 5.

Finally, the player can win a round with 8 to 25 free spins if he has three to five skull symbols as scatters on the reels.

A very enjoyable game overall and I'm sure it will be a great choice for anyone that is a fan of Indiana Jones and his adventures.
