The Gopher Gold

How to play the Gopher Gold

During the game in the Gopher Gold, you can choose one of two control modes:

• Basic
• Expert

The basic functionality is displayed by default immediately after the game machine is loaded. It contains all the basic controls. One of them is responsible for the number of active lines. This is a button labeled with the Select Lines mark. With its help, the user can activate from 1 to 9 lines.

In the Gopher Gold slot, the player makes bets not in real credits, but in virtual coins. To adjust this unit of game currency, use the menu with the “-” and “+” buttons. With its help, you can choose the value from 0.2 to 1 credit. On each of the active lines, you can bet from 1 to 5 virtual coins. This amount is selected with the Select Coins button.

Also, in the basic control mode, the following buttons are displayed on the console under the reels:

• bet max – setting the maximum bet;
• spin – start a single round.

The advanced mode of controlling the Gopher Gold slot is activated by the Expert button. This option will be appreciated, first of all, by fans of automatic spins. Inside it, you can select a specified number of spins that will be performed without user intervention. To return to the basic mode, simply click the Regular button.

Regardless of which control mode was selected by the player, the paytable is opened after clicking on the View Payout icon. It shows the coefficients for each of the combinations. Winnings are awarded to players for chains of 2, 3, 4 or 5 identical symbols, drawn on the active line.

Risk game

After the winning combination appears, the Gamble button becomes active on the control panel. It allows you to switch to a risk-game. This is a special round in which you can increase the last win at least 2 times. If the user guesses the color of the suit, then the last win is multiplied by 2 times, and if the color itself, then by 4 times. If the choice is incorrect, the sum is burned and the risk game is terminated.

Symbols and winnings

The Gopher Gold video slot has a wild beaver character. It replaces most of the icons in winning combinations. The exception is the scatter. It is made in the form of a logo of the machine and does not depend on active lines. This picture multiplies the total bet by 10, 50 or 100 times. The most expensive ordinary symbol is the image of a pickaxe and a shovel. It has coefficients of 5, 50, 500 and 1 000. The icon in the form of exploding dynamite multiplies the linear rate by 4, 40, 250 and 900 times. The multipliers for the pickaxe are 3, 30, 100 and 700, and for the trolley – 2, 20, 60 and 500. The remaining symbols form combinations with such coefficients:

• lamp — 1, 10, 30, 300;
• А — 5, 25, 250;
• К — 4, 20, 200;
• Q – 3, 15, 150;
• J – 2, 10, 100;
