Clicking on the game tile will take you to a dark, cavernous setting, where the large 8x8 game grid looms, glittering with vibrant gemstones and exciting prize potential. The Gold Fever collection meter sits alongside the grid, with your game controls below.
To begin playing, use the plus and minus buttons to choose your wager, then hit the spin button to start the reels spinning. If you hit a winning combo, a tumble sequence will trigger, and your winning symbols will be explored from the grid.
The game grid is filled with colourful gemstones, each representing a different value prize, based on the number of matching symbols, from low-paying blue gems to the top-paying ruby gemstones that offer a whopping 1,000x if you can match 25 or more on the grid.
The wild symbol is the only bonus symbol in this charming title, a golden safe door encrusted with a green gemstone that only appears in the Wild Gem and Lucky Wilds mini-features. The same wild can connect to form multiple winning combos with different symbols.
The cluster pays mechanic requires you to land clusters of identical symbols on a single spin to earn a payout. The paytable below demonstrates the payouts you’d receive if playing with a £1.00 wager:

The features are nonstop in this colourful slot, starting with the tumbling reels engine, which sees winning symbols explode from the reels to make way for new symbols to tumble from above and bring with them the possibility of scoring another win.
In the base game, random special coloured markings can appear on random reel positions, which trigger a special mini-feature whenever wins are formed on top of them as follows:
If multiple features are won on a single spin, they always play in the following order: Nuclear, Wild Gem, Squares, Colossal Symbol, and Lucky Wilds.
On every spin, the number of winning symbols that explode during tumbles is counted in the Gold Fever Meter. When a certain number of symbols are collected, the feature triggers.
The feature starts once all tumbles and mini-features are completed. You begin the feature at level 1, with all mini-features guaranteed to be played once per level. All wins have a starting multiplier of 2x.
Collecting symbols will rise you up through the levels as follows:
The round ends when not enough symbols are collected to advance a level or all spin features have been played at every level.
