Lava Gold

Are you ready to visit a special island that’s believed to be the home of an immense treasure?

Be fast though, as besides the dinosaurs, there is also a volcano that’s about to erupt at any moment!

Lava Gold is an online one-armed bandit by BetSoft content developer that brings a 5x5 board with cluster pays to the table, but tense music and great graphics too!

As you explore around the island, you will also stumble upon features such as Cluster Wins, Free Spins and Volcanic Wilds!

Theme and Symbols

As soon as you power up this online release you will find yourself deep in the jungle that’s located on this mysterious island.

Taking a look at the reels will give you a chance to get familiar with various interesting symbols.

Representing the more lucrative symbols we have colorful flowers, dinosaur eggs, paws, flying dinosaurs and, of course, T-Rex, while the ones that award less lucrative payouts come in a more traditional form of card symbols A-10.

Betting Options and Other Functions

Unfortunately, when we get to the betting options, things take a turn for the worse for this online slot, which is not something that we’re used to seeing in BetSoft’s vast repertoire.

Betting range starts with a minimum bet of 0.25 credits and gets as high as 3.75 credits, which might be a deal-breaker for some high-rollers.

When it comes to payout potential, there’s a theoretical return to player of 95.99%, paired with the highest win that awards a payout of just a bit north of 150x your stake, which is not too impressive.

If you are into mobile gaming, you will be glad to hear that you will be able to enjoy this online product on your iOS and Android devices too!

Special Features

• Cluster Wins – Landing 5 or more Matching symbols will form a winning cluster that gets removed from the grid after awarding you with a payout, allowing new symbols to take their place! (see more here)

• Free Spins – In order to trigger the Free Spins feature, you will need to get a cluster win of all symbols from low to high, which will fill up the Lava Meter. After you fill the meter, you will be rewarded with 10 Free Spins during which the middle column is made of random identical symbols that will guarantee a win!

• Volcanic Wilds – The Volcano itself is a special Wild Symbol that will help you form winning clusters with greater ease as it comes with the ability to substitute all other symbols!

Conclusion

All things considered, while Lava Gold might seem like a solid product, it leaves us wanting for a bit more out of it.

While it does come with pleasant graphics and sounds, it also comes with a lackluster payout potential, which might be a tough pill to swallow for some players.

If you aren’t too fond of meeting dinosaurs, but still enjoy wild life, Stampede by the same provider might be more to your liking!
