Game Overview

The Gold Rush slot from Pragmatic Play features a classic mining theme on five reels. Set against a backdrop of wooden carts and lanterns, the game includes symbols such as gold miners, dynamite, and pickaxes. With minimum bets starting at £0.25 and a simple design, it offers straightforward gameplay.


Game Rules

All symbols in Gold Rush pay from left to right on adjacent reels, starting from the leftmost reel. High volatility means wins are less frequent but the potential for larger payouts within short periods is higher. Only the highest win per line is paid. In the event of multiple winning paylines, all wins are added to the total win.

Special Symbols

  • Wild Symbol: Substitutes for all symbols except Scatter and Golden Nugget.
  • Scatter Symbol: Appears only on reels 2, 3, and 4. During the Free Spins Round, each scatter symbol awards 2 extra free spins. Three scatter symbols trigger 10 free spins.

Free Spins and Progressive Feature

The Free Spins Round includes a progressive feature requiring collection of points to advance through 4 levels. Points are collected by landing Golden Nugget symbols during free spins; each nugget is worth one point.

  • Level 1 (0-4 points): 3 extra spins, regular reels
  • Level 2 (5-9 points): 5 extra spins, expanded reels
  • Level 3 (10-14 points): 9 extra spins, further expanded reels
  • Level 4 (15+ points): 11 extra spins, maximum expansion

If enough points are collected to reach the next level on the last spin, one more spin is awarded. Special reels are used during Free Spins.
