Golden Castle Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits
The Golden Castle slot is played using the Titanways mechanic. On the 6 reels, you’ll see symbols that appear in shapes that are 1×1, 1×2, 1×3, 2×2 and 3×3. The 1×1, 1×2 and 1×3 count as single symbols. The 2×2 and 3×3 count for each reel they cover. To create a winning combination, you need to land the same symbol on 3 reels from left to right, starting from reel 1.
You can play at stake levels of between 20p and £60 per spin. Click on the coins to the right of the reels then pick from the 19 different stake levels. In some countries, there’s an Autoplay and Quick Spin function.
The Golden Castle RTP is 96.34%. If using the Buy Free Spins option, the RTP increases to 97.12%.It comes with a hit frequency rate of 33.81% meaning 1 in 3 spins (on average) will result in a winning combination.
High variance, the bigger wins will come in the free spins with the multiplier that increases with each avalanche. The maximum win comes in at the 20,000 x your total stake mark.
Theme – Audio & Design Features – enter a ruined castle
The design in the Golden Castle slot is simple but rather nicely done. With a medieval castle theme, the reels are set within the ruins of a stone castle. You’ll see grinning gargoyles and the golden image of the king at the top.
The soundtrack has an ‘olde worlde’ feel to it which is a good match for the theme. It’s not the flashiest design but it comes together pretty well. On the reels you’ll find an assortment of gemstone symbols. They’re not a natural fit for the mediaeval theme but they do the job well enough here.
That simple but crisp design we described in the previous section is present and correct on the Golden Castle mobile slot. A game that uses the Titanways mechanic, with all its moving parts, needs to be sharp if you’re playing on a device with a small screen. The visuals here are certainly up to the job. It’s a little no frills but it’s all easy enough to follow if you’re using a tablet or smartphone.
Golden Castle Bonus Features
There are 3 bonus features in Golden Castle. These award avalanches, transforming symbols and free spins, complete with an expanding multiplier.
Avalanche feature
After a winning combination is formed, the Avalanche feature comes into play. Then an avalanche follows. Those successful symbols are removed from the grid and new symbols drop down and replace them. These avalanches continue as long as a new winning combination is created. If there are partial gaps under 2×2 and 3×3 symbols, they crush the symbols below during an avalanche.
Wild Haunt feature
The Wild Haunt feature triggers whenever a Ghost King symbol appears. 1 symbol that’s not a single will be picked at random. This symbol is then broken up into multiple 1×1 symbols which transform into the same matching symbol. If his majesty is in a benevolent mood, he can upgrade these symbols into wilds.
When the initial transformation has occurred, the original Ghost King symbols turn into wilds. A new payout consideration then follows with the new combination of transformed and wild symbols in their new positions.
Phantom Free Spins feature
To trigger the game’s Phantom Free Spins feature, you’ll need to land 3 Bonus symbols in a single game round (this can be over multiple avalanches but from a single overall spin). Once triggered, you’ll go on to play 10 free spins.
Boosting your winning chances during the free spins is an increasing multiplier. The action begins with a 1x multiplier in play. With each avalanche win, that multiplier increases by 1. The multiplier doesn’t reset following a winless drop either, it remains the same or rises throughout the round.
Retriggers are possible too. Land 3 Bonus symbols and you’ll see another 10 free spins added to your tally. There’s no limit to the number of retriggers. In some territories, there’s an option to buy the free spins.
Golden Castle Review Summary – like Megaways
The Golden Castle slot offers something a little different courtesy of the Titanways mechanic. I found a steady stream of action here. The bonus feature are pretty standard. Looks wise, it reminds me of IGT’s Da Vinci Diamonds with the gemstones.
The Wild Haunt feature can be worth landing if you manage to get the upgraded wilds. Free spins with an increasing multiplier are always a decent addition. That’s certainly the case if you manage to get a retrigger which can really get the multipliers moving.
There are certain similarities here to Megaways slots. If you like that shape-shifting game engine, you might want to check out Golden Castle.
