Armadillo Studios is pleased to introduce its latest slot game, 1849 Gold Bonanza. Transport yourself back to the era of the California Gold Rush, where daring individuals sought their fortunes and the promise of wealth lay just beneath the earth’s surface.
Prospecting for gold
In this engaging high-volatility title, players are encouraged to grab their tools and join the famed ‘forty-niners’ in their pursuit of striking it rich. Each spin brings heightened excitement as players discover hidden treasures and witness ordinary symbols transform into wilds through the innovative Wild Transformation feature.
The swinging open of the saloon doors above the reels reveals a concealed reel, converting all matching symbols into wilds, significantly increasing the potential for substantial wins.
Free spins
By landing three or more Scatter Symbols during the base game, players can activate free spins, with the possibility of earning up to 20 free spins. Throughout this feature, a meter displaying empty whiskey glasses appears above the reels, waiting to be filled by Wild Symbols. Each filled glass not only grants extra free spins but also boosts the game’s multiplier, with the potential to reach a 20x multiplier.
Additionally, players can trigger Golden Nugget Cash Prizes both in the base game and during free spins. Each Gold Nugget symbol represents a cash prize that can be multiplied on the same spin by Wild Symbols.
Winning potential
The game offers a wide range of cash prizes, varying from two to 500x the stake in the base game and reaching up to 10,000x the stake during free spins when the 20x multiplier is achieved, providing players with a plethora of winning opportunities.
Furthermore, during free spins, if a multiplier of 3x, 5x, or 20x is attained, scatter cash prizes on the reels are pre-multiplied in addition to any line wins.
Armadillo Studios has a history of successful game releases, including titles such as Cookie Kingdom, Cookie Bonanza, Hot Hot Balloons, Paws and Claws: A Tail of Fortune, Gummy Galaxy, Shamrock Surprise, and many others.
David Stoveld, COO of Armadillo Studios, said:
With 1849 Gold Bonanza, we wanted to capture the excitement of the Gold Rush era, giving players the chance to experience the thrill of striking it rich in a beautifully designed game filled with rewarding features.
