What features are available in the slot 12 Pots of Gold Drums King Millions?
The features are Wild Symbols, Epic Strike, Epic Strike Bonus Feature, King Millions Bonus, Rising Rewards Free Spins Multiplier, and Free Spins Bonus Feature.
Wild Symbols
Wild symbols can be used in place of the regular symbols to form winning combinations. They cover all of the standard symbols, but they can’t substitute the Epic Strike, Free Spin, Extra Spin, or Collect symbols. Wild symbols are also obtained during the base game, and collecting them may randomly cause the Epic Strike Bonus to be triggered.
Epic Strike
The Epic Strike symbol can appear on all reels, and landing 3 or more anywhere on the reels awards a cash prize. The prize varies from 1x for 3 symbols to 3,000x for 12 symbols, and the feature is only available in the base game.
Epic Strike Bonus Feature
The Epic Strike Bonus Feature may trigger whenever a Wild Symbol lands in the base game. It offers either a random cash reward between 5x and 3,000x the bet or the Free Spins feature.
King Millions Bonus
King Millions is a feature integrated into many games from the Games Global network. In this game, you can find King Million tokens on all the symbols except the Wild and Free Spin symbols, and the King Million feature can randomly trigger whenever a token appears. When the King Millions feature is triggered at the same time as either the Epic Strike Bonus Feature or the Free Spins Bonus Feature, the King Millions is played first.
The bonus includes two progressive jackpots: the Major jackpot begins at €1 million, and the Grand jackpot starts at €2 million. The Major jackpot is expected to be won about three or four times each year, whereas the Grand jackpot is expected to be won roughly once or twice a year.
Rising Rewards Free Spins Multiplier
The multiplier for the Rising Rewards Free Spins feature can increase by landing 2 Scatter Symbols in the base game. The multiplier increases by 1x for each qualifying outcome, and the meter can be boosted up to 10x before the Free Spins feature starts.
The multiplier is applied to all payline wins during the Free Spins, but it can’t rise during the feature. After the Free Spins have ended, the multiplier goes back to 1x, 2x, 3x or 4x.
Free Spins Bonus Feature
You trigger 3 Free Spins at level 1 by landing 3 Free Spin Scatter Symbols in the base game. During the feature, you can land Collect Symbols that can make you advance through the 8 levels by collecting a preset number of symbols. Reaching a new level will expand the grid with an extra row, and the spins reset to 3.
For Level 2, you need 5 Collect symbols; for Level 3, you need another 10; for Level 4, you need another 15; for Level 5, you need another 20; for Level 6, you need another 25; for Level 7, you need another 35, and for Level 8, you need another 55 Collect Symbols.
Landing 70 Collect symbols at Bonus Level 8 will give you a prize of 3,000x the bet. The bonus round finishes when you run out of spins or when you trigger the final cash prize. You can land extra spin symbols on reel 5, which will give you one additional spin.
Final Thoughts on 12 Pots of Gold Drums King Millions
After spending some time with 12 Pots of Gold Drums King Millions, it feels like we have relived previous gaming sessions. The game is basically the same as 12 Pots of Gold Drums, with the only real difference being the King Millions jackpot. And the original game is very similar to several other games from this game developer.
If you like the original version, you will feel at home here because the symbols and payouts are the same. However, a big downgrade is that the RTP has been lowered from 96% to 86%. It is common that progressive jackpot games have lower RTP, but you should be aware that this game pays back way less than the original game, on average.
If you’re aiming for the million-euro jackpots, although the chance of triggering them is super slim, you may want to have another look at this release. The Free Spins feature also has good depth, though it’s more of a respin feature than classic Free Spins.
12 Pots of Gold Drums by Gameburger Studios is a relaunch of a pretty average game that adds a progressive jackpot.
