Daniel Kalinowski, the Affiliate & Social Media Manager at Blueprint Gaming, sat down with us to uncover all the details that make this game so special and more.
In our little interview, Daniel spills the tea on the inspiration behind so many versions of this game and how an entire team brought one idea to life. You’ll also find out why players can’t get enough of it. Thus, are you ready for this revealing interview? Let’s roll!
There have been several games based on Midas in the past few years, what makes Midas King of Gold title stand out from the rest?
Games based on mythological rulers have always caught the attention of players, and other than Zeus, there’s nobody quite as iconic as Midas – The man with the golden touch.
This 6-reel slot can see the Midas Touch feature randomly trigger on any spin, this turns the adjacent symbol gold. Any winning symbol that appears over the marked position will then trigger a truly exciting mini reel that spins to reveal a cash prize, free spins, or a win multiplier.
In addition to this Midas King of Gold also boasts a strong free spins bonus that can see scatter wins multiplied by up to 500x. A King of Gold free spins feature can also offer some extremely generous winning possibilities.
Midas King of Gold features highly volatile gameplay with an impressive maximum win of 10,000x – What is it about volatile games that keep players coming back for more?
I think it’s fair to suggest that most people play slots because they have distant dreams of hitting one of an unimaginably large win. The reality is that high-volatility games such as Midas King of Gold offer those opportunities more so than others.
Of course, high-volatility gameplay comes with its own set of risks that players should always be aware of. But you know what they say, fortune favours the brave! Those seeking Midas’ fortune are in with a chance of winning a maximum 10,000x their stake, which is great.
Can you explain what Midas Spins and King of Gold Spins are and how they work?
Midas Spins are this game’s free spins. During Midas Spins any golden background in view will remain persistent for the feature. Scatter wins can occur during this that can be multiplied by up to 500x. Should 3, 4, 5 or 6 scatters land then 5, 7, 10 or 15 additional spins are awarded.
King of Gold Spins occur when players land 6 scatter symbols during base gameplay. This feature follows the same rules as Midas Spins, except that the lowest multiplier value possible from the Midas Touch mini reels is x10. Lucrative!
How important is the inclusion of an increased bonus chance and Buy Bonus feature in high volatility games such as Midas King of Gold?
They are hugely important! Not because the game is overly difficult when it comes to triggering a bonus feature, but because there are plenty of players out there that play online slots to experience the thrill of a bonus feature such as Mida Spins and King of Gold Spins. Taking that shortcut to get where they want to be can massively enhance the experience for many people.
What’s more, Bonus Buys are integral to ensuring that streamers take an active interest in your game nowadays. Ultimately streamers only have a short window of time to play so many games per stream, so being able to jump straight onto the bonus feature means they can showcase the very best of the game whilst also potentially winning big prizes!
