Secret City Gold Slot Review – Pragmatic Play
A big Happy New Year to everyone who reads these reviews; we have the first review of 2023 today! It is officially time to start sharing all news from providers as they return and new roadmaps for Q1 begin. I am on a roll; it seems with Pragmatic Play reviews, the provider is still announcing new games for January, and soon we will have some February news. I just reviewed the game ‘Mammoth Gold Megaways‘, which has a max win capped at 10,000x and a wide range of volatile mechanics on offer. Including Multiplier Wilds of 2x or 3x and a Free Spins feature with a unique Multiplier Meter. Today we are learning all about ‘Secret City Of Gold‘, which is set to release on January 16th across all sites!
Pragmatic Play takes on a new adventure into the jungle to discover treasures and explore newfound temples. The theme looks to be based on Aztecs, with the noticeable structure in the distance and the artwork style used. The game background shows us the wonders of the jungle, showing the beauty and depth within. The reel set is surrounded by nature and stone structures covered in vines. There are many animations you will notice, such as the waterfall and fireflies. Premium symbols are detailed Aztec totems, each with a unique animation which occurs when part of a win. The soundtrack makes you feel like you are in this jungle, along with the sound effects and animations that occur as you spin. This theme is nothing new for us, but the visual aspects are well-detailed, as always by Pragmatic Play.
Secret City Gold has a setup of 5 reels by 4 rows; this includes 25 set pay lines. This slot is high variance with a set RTP of 96.06% and a max win capped at 10,000x. You can bet from £0.25 to £125.
Secret City Gold Symbols & Pay Table
There are 12 symbols in total; this includes 5 low-paying symbols. These are represented by 10, J, Q, K and A. There are also 5 premium symbols; these are represented by Frog, Monkey, Frog & Lion coloured totems and a Golden Coin. In addition to these regular symbols is a Wild Symbol and Scatter Symbol. The highest paying symbol is the Golden Coin premium, which pays 4x for 5 across a pay line. Wilds substitute for all symbols except the scatter and appears on all reels.
Secret City Gold Features & Mechanics
On every base game spin, there is a chance for a random shape to appear on the reel set at the end of each spin. All symbols inside this shape transform into one random symbol, which appears on the reel set. Multiplied by a random multiplier of 1x to 10x.
Landing 3 or more scatter symbols during a base game spin will trigger the Free Spins feature. Awarding 8 Free Spins, during spins, shapes can randomly appear. These shapes will have a random multiplier; this multiplier is added to a general multiplier that is applied to the wins of current and all future shapes that land. Each scatters that lands will award 1 extra Free Spin. This feature can be purchased for 85x for your chosen stake.
Conclusion
Overall, I think this slot shows off well detailed visual aspects but does not showcase anything new to us visually. With the number of releases by Pragmatic Play each month some themes become more and more familiar with us. That is unfortunately the case with the jungle/Aztec theme for me personally. I still do love the depth within the game background and the level of detail you can see. All aspects go well together to create the ultimate user friendly experience, for all Aztec lovers especially. Now onto the visuals and features;
There is a unique mechanic on each base game spin, a random shape can appear. All symbols within this shape transform into one random symbol. Plus a random multiplier is awarded between 1x to 10x. The main attraction is the Free Spins feature, with these shapes appearing and Multipliers being added to a general multiplier. Plus a bonus buy option for those who do not want to spin the base game. Be sure to try out the game for yourself and check out our exclusive casino offers.
