Heist for the Golden Nuggets Slot Review

Embark on a thrilling adventure with Pragmatic Play’s new slot game that takes you to the wild west where a group of bandits plot a gold nugget heist.

The Plot and Characters

Once again we return to the western frontier, and this time Pragmatic Play is involving you in a potentially lucrative gold nugget heist. The Heist for the Golden Nuggets is plotted by 5 hard-boiled characters, including one female, and their plan is apparently being hatched in a dusty saloon that looks abandoned. The local bank is filled to the brim with deposited gold nuggets, and you’ll join the 5 bandits in their effort to get their hands on more riches than they would probably know what to do with.

Base Game Features

The base game is simple enough, as it comes with wilds that increase their multiplier boost the more wilds that are involved in the win. Up to an x16 multiplier can boost your wild wins in that regard, and the bonus round is all about landing Nugget Value prize collector symbols. The Nugget Value increases per gold nugget money symbol, and the collector symbol will be one of the bank robbers chosen up front. The 5,000x potential is solid enough, and Heist for the Golden Nuggets is a decent installment in the popular wild west genre.

Premium Character Symbols & Wild Multipliers

The premium character symbols pay between 2.5 and 20 x your stake for 5 of a kind wins, and you can land Wild symbols on all 5 reels. Wilds not only step in for pay symbols to help complete and/or improve line wins, they can also boost line wins they partake in. Landing 2, 3, 4, or 5 wilds that are part of the same win will boost that win by a multiplier of x2, x4, x8, or x16, respectively.

Bonus Round & Nugget Value

You need at least one Money Symbol on reels 1, 3, and 5 to trigger the Bonus Round, which gives you 5 free spins regardless of the number of triggering symbols. All new money symbol nuggets that appear in the bonus round are added to the Nugget Value meter. Before the bonus round plays out, one of the 5 character symbols is chosen randomly to be the Special Money Symbol, which pays the total Nugget Value prize each time it appears. This can lead to accumulating substantial rewards.

Purchasing the Bonus Round

Non-UK players, and anyone living in an eligible jurisdiction, can purchase the bonus round for 75x the stake. Although the RTP is slightly lower when the bonus round is purchased, it doesn’t make a significant difference. The feature has a hit rate of 1 in 138 spins, which is reasonably decent.

The 200 Spins Experience

Experience the Heist for the Golden Nuggets through 200 spins. The base game offers a few smaller wins, while the bonus round can be triggered for an adrenaline-pumping experience. The video highlights feature allows you to see how the game unfolds, particularly during the bonus round.

Review Summary

Pragmatic Play focuses on quantity with its numerous slot games. Heist for the Golden Nuggets may not have the most innovative concept, but it is entertaining, featuring rugged characters and multiplier-boosted wild wins. The potential 5,000x win and engaging bonus round make it an exciting option for slot enthusiasts.
