Midas Coins slot summary
Midas Coins slot by Quickspin is pretty basic even though it tries to do something a bit different. Quickspin like their classical mythology themes as we have witnessed previously, namely with the games Wrath of Hades slot with ancient Greece also being the subject of King Colossus slot. Ancient Rome also gets a look-in with Tiger's Glory slot and the preferable Nero's Fortune slot. So we have the archetypal temple background here with classical music and naturally the typical symbols of this old theme. So can our bankroll turn to gold with the touch of Midas here or will the coins evade us?
On the reels...
There are 25 pay lines over 5 reels of 3 rows and more than one symbol possible on each reel of Midas Coins slot. The Marigold Wild can appear stacked and is the top 5-of-a-kind pay at 32x bet alongside the Necklace, Bracelet 9.6x, Ring 8x, Pendant 6.4x alongside four card values paying either 5 or 4x bet for a full line. Satyr bonus scatters can land on reels 1, 3 and 5 and as for Midas he can only land on reel 5. When he does, he will pay the combined values of the final symbol I haven't mentioned yet, the Silver Coins on the first 4 reels. These can award 14 different values, 1 to 10x bet being the most common but values of 100, 200 and even 500x bet are possible.
Free Games
Having landed you 3 Satyr scatters and earned 2x bet in the process, 12 free games are yours. You can get +1 spin for each scatter in the bonus, or +5 for all 3 scatters. The enhancement now is the fact that all Silver Coin values landing are saved up in the coin stack to the left, whether Midas lands to collect them or not, as it never decreases or empties. This means the stack can be won multiple times within the bonus. The bonus buy in some jurisdictions is 50x bet, so this would infer the average pay for the bonus is about 48x bet. You can win over 5,000x bet, we are reliably informed by Quickspin.
Our View...
Midas Coins slot has a RTP of 96.02% and generally is pretty humdrum despite the decent sound and graphical effects. The base game is poor unless you get a rare spin where the better symbols and stacked Wilds combine for multiple big wins, or some good coins values land along with Midas on reel 5. The free games aren't hard to trigger given the average pay and can be fun to watch, but good luck seeing any coins land with values in excess of 30x displayed, even then watch as Midas fails to appear to collect your stacks! Still, some players may well get a good albeit rare big win here. If you visit the old temple, Midas may well be benevolent...
