Gold Blitz Extreme Slot Review

Gold Blitz Extreme Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

The Gold Blitz Extreme slot has 6 reels, 4 rows and 4,096 ways to win. Winning combinations begin from the leftmost reel and pay left to right only on adjacent reels. With only the highest win paid per way to win, you need 3 or more matching symbols or 2 or more for the 5 highest-value symbols.

Bets-wise, you can spin away from 20p to £50 per spin. The default bet is set a £2 a spin so you can change it by using the plus/minus buttons in the Bet section. Non-UK players can use Autoplay where you can enable up to 100 auto spins. There’s also a Turbo Mode for quicker spins.

In regards of the return rate, the Gold Blitz Extreme RTP is 96%. This is exactly the online slots average. Very high volatility, there is no hit frequency rate information at the time of writing.

Finally, Gold Blitz can serve up 5,500 x bet max wins. Fixed jackpots can dish out big wins but the bigger wins will come in the free spins or from the Gold Blitz spins.

Theme: mesmerising + high-energy

With a money/gold theme, the Gold Blitz Extreme slot is the sequel to the popular Gold Blitz (December 2022). Set in what appears to be a vortex, the purple backdrop against the gold-framed reels makes the action pop out. Produced by Fortune Factory Studios in cooperation with Games Global, the symbols are polished and bright.

High energy, you’ll surely notice the thumping rock soundtrack which I personally quite like. It doesn’t quite match the visuals but for some reason works. When you land winning combinations, the sound effects are pretty good too.

On the reels, you’ll come across neon-style A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9 royals. The higher-value symbols include lucky horseshoes, golden bells, gold coins, gold bullion and Dollar Signs. The best paying symbol is the Dollar Sign which awards 1, 1.4, 2, 2.6 or 5 x your total bet for 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 in combination.

You also have a Wild symbol that substitutes for all paying symbols above. It appears on reels 2 through 6 in the base game and the 3 middle reels during the free spins. Other symbols include the Bonus Scatter, Cash and Collect (more details on these below).

Gold Blitz Extreme Mobile

The Gold Blitz Extreme release date is the 20^th of December 2023. Created using HTML5 technology, it will adapt to whatever device you use: mobile, tablet, laptop or PC. The 5×4 reel layout works perfectly fine on smartphone devices, including those which operate with iOS and Android software.

Gold Blitz Extreme Bonus Features

The Gold Blitz Extreme slot has 7 bonus features. Look out for Collect and Cash symbols which award the Cash symbol prizes. Collect symbols can also lead to respins with guaranteed wins and tokens which will award fixed jackpots up to 2,500 x bet. The Bonus Choice sees you pick from free spins with multipliers or Gold Blitz spins which guarantee wins.

Collect feature

When you land a Collect symbol and Cash symbol at the same time, you’ll trigger the Collect feature. You’ll notice that Cash symbols appear on all reels with the Collect symbol appearing on reels 1 and 6. Basically, every Collect symbol collects all landed cash symbols.

Respin feature

When a Collect symbol lands on reels 1 and 6 without any Cash symbols appearing, the Respin feature comes into play. You’ll be awarded with 1 respin with reels 1 and 6 locking (with the Collect symbols in position). Reels 2 through 5 respin with Cash symbols and blanks appearing. You are guaranteed to land at least 1 Cash symbol which results in a winning outcome.

Rising Rewards Jackpot feature

When you land a Cash symbol with a Collect symbol in the base game, a token is accumulated. Each time tokens are accumulated, at least 1 jackpot is increased up to 1 x bet each time:

When you accumulate tokens, you have a chance of triggering the Rising Rewards Jackpot feature in the base game. Here, cash prizes and fixed jackpots can be won. In the feature, at least 1 jackpot will be won. The prizes are as follows:

Rising Rewards Bonus Multiplier feature

Look out for the Bonus Multiplier Meter in the top left-hand corner (desktop) or in the top/middle position (mobile). With the ability to increase in the base game, the Bonus Multiplier applies to every win the free spins and Gold Blitz features.

The Bonus Multiplier increases by 0.5 x bet when 2 Bonus Scatters land in the base game on all reels without triggering the Bonus Choice. In the base game, the maximum Bonus Multiplier can rise to 5x. It also resets back to 1x after the free spins or Gold Blitz features take place. However, it can randomly increase by 0.5x or 1x when you return to the base game.

Bonus Choice

Landing 3 or more Bonus Scatter symbols will award the Bonus Choice. You can choose from free spins or spins in Gold Blitz. The more scatters you land initially, the bigger the reward:

In the Free Spins feature, a 2x, 3x or 5x multiplier is randomly applied to every wild that’s part of a win. The Bonus Multiplier multiplies the total win of every free spin. Also, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 scatters will reward you with 5, 8, 12, 20 or 30 free spins respectively. Some of the higher-value symbols (lucky horseshoe, golden bell, gold coins and gold bullion) don’t appear during the free spins.

With the Gold Blitz feature, the Collect Retrigger and Retrigger symbols can appear on reel 6. Here is what they do:

The Collect symbol is guaranteed to land on reel 1 on each Gold Blitz spin. Only Collect, Collect Retrigger, Retrigger and Cash symbols will appear during this feature (all other positions are blank). Importantly, extreme 100 x bet Cash symbols can appear during the feature.

With a winning outcome guaranteed on every spin, Collect and Collect Retriggers symbol payouts will appear combined in the total payout. The Bonus Multiplier applies to the total win of each spin too.

Lastly, there is a Bonus Buy feature for non-UK players. This will give you access to the Bonus Choice with 3, 4, 5 or 6 Bonus Scatters. The cost of these options hasn’t been confirmed at the time of writing.

Gold Blitz Extreme Slot

Gold Blitz Extreme is a high-energy slot with plenty of bonus features. With 5,500 x bet max wins, it’s higher than the 5,000 x bet offered in the original outing. Overall, it will prove a popular game with many ways to achieve decent payouts.

Pros

• 5,500 x bet max wins
• Lots of bonus features
• High energy + easy to understand

Cons

• Very high volatility
• Gameplay not entirely original

The original Gold Blitz by Fortune Factory Studios proved to be one of the most successful releases from the Games Global group (Microgaming). As a result, the Gold Blitz Extreme slot needs to be bigger, bolder and more rewarding. They’ve managed to accomplish this.

High energy, expect a sensory overload with flashing lights, bright symbols and a thumping soundtrack thrown in. Aesthetically, it has the feel of a modern fruit machine like NetEnt’s Starburst.

In terms of the gameplay, there are lots of bonus features in Gold Blitz Extreme. Collect symbols will award the Cash symbols on the reels or give you a respin with the guarantee of a win. Tokens are also accumulated which sees the fixed jackpots increase.

This can lead to the Rising Rewards jackpots with the Mega Jackpot worth up to 2,500 x bet. The critical factor is the Bonus Multiplier which applies to every win during the free spins and Gold Blitz spins. In the free spins, a random multiplier up to 5x is applied with the possibility of additional free spins. With the Gold Blitz feature, every spin guarantees a win. Look out for extreme Cash symbols which are worth up to 100 x bet.
