Gold Rush is a rootin, tootin throw back to the Wild West with three reels themed around the prospecting era. Obviously gold has never lost its appeal, although these days people prefer coin as a show of wealth. This slot offers three reels, one payline and over 15 winning combinations which offer prizes up to $960.

Gold Rush Theme

Your slot is surrounded by other casino decor including potted plants, chandeliers, patterned carpet and other slot machines. The designers have gone down this route to imitate an authentic casino atmosphere with matching sound effects to complete the illusion.

The reel casing includes the paytable, coin display, reels and buttons with a huge pull arm on the right and retro mahogany effect either side. The machine reminds me of an old jukebox crossed with an old airplane or Smeg fridge to look at.

Reel icons also offer a touch of nostalgia with a few themed designs thrown in for good measure. These include mining carts, 5’s, 7’s, cherries, gold logos and bar icons which award prizes based on the paytable shown above the reels.

Betting Options and More Functions

Wagers are aimed at low to mid risk players with prizes which are equally attractive to high rollers too. Players can choose to bet single, double or triple coins with a fixed value of 0.20 which means a minimum stake of 0.20 and maximum of 0.60.

Gold Rush Slot Features

There aren’t too many, but we were impressed to see any on a three reel slot. The mining cart icon will award prizes when one appears in any of the three reels on the payline. This is the only icon which can perform scattered wins.

You can also win a prize with any mixture of three Bar icons appear on the payline. You will win 4, 8 or 12 coins when betting one, two or three coins respectively.
