If you do choose autoplay mode, loss stop limits are compulsory. You can also set win stop limits as well as ending the auto spins whenever you trigger the feature round.

Golden Ticket variance is in the medium range with potential wins of 20,578 times your stake if you get the maximum win from all the drop wins with the increasing multiplier.

Golden Ticket Theme – Audio & Design Features – superb recreation of a vintage circus

A trip to the circus can be a feast for the senses and that’s certainly the case with the Golden Ticket slot which looks and sounds superb. There’s a vintage feel to both the sound and imagery here.

You’ll hear a traditional, barrel organ-style soundtrack playing in the background while you spin. Along with the chatter and general hubbub from the audience, it delivers loads of atmosphere. Play ‘n GO are usually among the market leaders when it comes to the design of their slots and they’ve created another cracker with Golden Ticket.

With stalls, tents and caravans in the background, the 5×5 reel grid is filled with circus related symbols. They include leotard-wearing strongmen, clowns, top hats, dumb bells and juggling clubs. Overseeing the action are a sad faced clown, strongman or ring master.

The Ringmaster is the top paying standard symbol and pays 0.5, 2.5 or 25 times your total stake if you land 3, 4 or 5 of them in combination. If you manage to clear the whole grid, you’ll win a 50 x stake prize.

The Golden Ticket symbol is the wild and substitutes for all symbols bar the Bonus re-trigger symbol. More importantly, 3, 4 or 5 in combination will pay 5, 15 or 500 x your total stake.

You can take in this show on all devices including desktop and laptop computers, tablets and mobiles. You’ll find the same high-class sound and visuals regardless of what sort of device your using. The gameplay is pretty solid on smaller handsets too. We’ve no grumbles about the Golden Ticket mobile slot.

Bonus Features in Golden Ticket 2

Golden Ticket isn’t just a super stylish slot. There’s plenty going on in terms of gameplay too. Highlights include avalanche reels with expanding multipliers and a tin can alley-style shootout bonus.

Cascading Symbols feature

Each time you create a winner by landing 3 or more matching symbols vertically or horizontally, you’ll trigger the Cascading Symbols feature. Winning symbols are removed and new ones drop in and replace them.

In the middle of the previous winning position will be a wild. Each successive symbol drop win also increases a multiplier by 1. The symbol drops keep on coming as long as a new winning combination is created. You can check on the size of the current multiplier via the meter to the left of the reels.

Bonus feature

Behind the reels you’ll see the letters that make up the word BONUS. If you get on a roll with the symbol drops and reveal all the letters in BONUS, you’ll activate the Bonus feature.

You’ll then head to a new screen that’s dominated by a classic fairground shooting gallery. You’ll then get 10 shots (in effect free spins) at a new selection of targets that include balloons, drums, ducks, targets, cakes, stars, elephants, lions and clowns.

In the feature, you need to land 5 matching symbols to create a winner. The best of these is the clown face which awards a bumper haul of 175 times your stake if you land 10 in combination. Re-triggers are possible here too with up to 20 shots/free spins in total.

Golden Ticket Review Summary – this show is well worth a ticket

Play ‘n GO has created a beautifully designed game in the Golden Ticket slot. There’s an old school charm to the visuals and the barrel organ soundtrack really conjures up a night at the fairground.

Golden Ticket isn’t overflowing with extras but the symbol drop wins with multipliers keep the base game moving along tidily enough. The multipliers can lead to 20,578 x stake wins and are the key to the big wins.

This trip to the big top is an enjoyable one. You won’t find many slots that are better designed than this and there are enough moving parts to the gameplay to keep things interesting. Play ‘n GO has since released the Golden Ticket 2 slot which has more bonus features but the RTP is lower and the max win potential is 5,000 x stake per spin. In short, the original Golden Ticket game is better.
