How to play California Gold Rush?
This slot machine uses fixed paylines, meaning that the user will only need to adjust the amount of the total bet in a separate menu before they start playing. The menu opens up with a click on the New Bet button, after which available bet amount options from 50 to 5000 credits will appear on the screen. The amount selected will be withdrawn from the play balance at the beginning of each paid spin.
Alternatively, the player can bet 5000 credits in one click, using the Max Bet button. Once confirmed, a new spin will automatically start at the maximum bet. The “i” key opens the paytable. The round button in the center of the control panel starts the rotation of the reels. By pressing and holding it, the player activates the Auto Spins mode.
Symbols and Payouts
The playing field is placed against the backdrop of a night landscape with moths flying around. The wild symbol here looks like a stack of shiny gold bars.

The bank picture increases the amount wagered by 5, 20, and 100 times, and the symbol of a steam train multiplies it by 5, 20, and 80.
The rest of the symbols have the following multipliers:
- Cart of gold, sunny Wild West town – 5, 10, 30.
- Anvil, lantern – 2, 5, 20.
- Gold pan – 2, 5, 10.

The user gets 10 free spins. If during those a new combination of scatter symbols is formed, 10 more games will be added to the remaining ones. Users can increase their winnings during free spins even more as all combinations featuring the wild symbol receive an additional multiplier of х6.
