BGaming is embarking on a new slot adventure with the launch of Catch the Gold Hold and Win, a luxurious slot game that delivers an opulent experience for players. This sophisticated slot game is adorned with wild and scatter symbols, free spins, Hold & Win mechanics, Buy Chance +250%, and Buy Bonus features.
Mediterranean luxury
Against the backdrop of a serene Mediterranean setting, Catch the Gold Hold and Win unfolds on a 5×3 grid, offering players a premium gaming package. The reels are adorned with symbols representing wealth, including champagne bottles, mega yachts, luxury watches, and bags of cash.
Players will also encounter VIP ticket Scatter symbols, which serve as the key to unlocking the Free Spins feature. By landing three Scatter symbols on reels 1, 3, and 5, players can trigger the free spins round, with a choice between two modes: Big Catch and VIP Only.
Free spins
In the Big Catch mode, reels 2, 3, and 4 transform into a Special reel where a random 3×3 symbol block drops onto the grid, triggering 5 free spins. The Scatter block can add an additional 3 free spins to the total. Opting for the VIP Only mode results in only premium symbols appearing on the reels, with 8 free spins awarded. The Scatter symbol has the potential to retrigger the free spins feature if three scatters land on the reels.
The wild symbol in the game is represented by the female captain, who raises a toast to players when she forms part of a winning combination. The Wild symbol can substitute for all other symbols in a winning line, except for Scatters and Coins.
Hold & Win feature
The Hold & Win feature, triggered by landing 6 or more Coin symbols, is at the core of the game’s mechanics. During this round, golden coins drop onto the reels, with players accumulating coins to increase their winnings. Each coin can have a value ranging from 1x to 20x, offering players the chance to win Mini (20x), Major (100x), or Mega (1,000x) prizes. Achieving a filled horizontal line with coins awards the Mini prize, while two filled lines result in the Major prize. The Mega jackpot is won when all horizontal lines are filled with coins.
BGaming has also introduced enhanced Buy options for this game, including the Buy Bonus feature that allows players to purchase access to the Hold & Win or Free Spins modes at the displayed price. Additionally, players can opt for the Chance +250% feature, which boosts the likelihood of triggering the Free Spins and Hold & Win features.

Review Overview
Summary
Catch the Gold Hold and Win tells you from its very title that it is not a new kind of game mechanic. We have a 25-liner set over 5 reels and 3 rows in a luxury coastal setting with the stacked Wild being the top 5-of-a-kind pay at 20x bet, the lowest card value at 2x. Scatters can appear on the odd reels and the usual coins symbols are here too of 1-20x bet, 6+ of them triggering the hold-and win feature with 3 lives and a possible collector coin to total all present values when landing. Naturally jackpots can be won by filling 1, 2 or all 3 coin rows up in the H&W bonus, of 20, 100 and 1000x bet. There's a choice of two free spins types when landing the 3 scatters: Big Catch where the centre 3 reels join for mega 3x3 symbols for 5 games, VIP Only spins where you have 8 of them with low symbols removed from the reels. Both can retrigger. Whether the gold here catches your attention or not is another matter.
