Fishin' Pots of Gold: Gold Blitz Slot by Gameburger Studios 🎰 Free Demo and Review

Fishin' Pots of Gold: Gold Blitz Review

You will recognize the characteristic soundtrack from the original Fishin' Pots Of Gold, but Gameburger has really gone to town when it comes to the visual presentation in this follow-up release. The Leprechaun is dressed up in a white suit with fancy purple sunglasses for the occasion, which seems like a strange choice for a river fishing expedition. The game will either lift your mood with all its colorful effects, or you will be completely turned off by it.

It’s also somewhat of a turn off that Fishin' Pots of Gold: Gold Blitz is, essentially, a remake of Fortune Factory Studio’s Gold Blitz. You can win up to 2,500x your stake from fish prize collection in the base game, which is decent, and the regular bonus round comes with multiplier wilds up to x5. The Gold Blitz™ feature guarantees a collector per spin, and only cash and/or jackpot prizes appear for a guaranteed win per spin. You have to be in the right mood to enjoy a far out game like this, but it can be good fun once in a while.

Fishin' Pots of Gold: Gold Blitz Slot Features

The premium symbols award between 2 and 5 x your stake for a 6 of a kind win, and the Mushroom Wild symbol steps in for any pay symbol to help complete and/or improve wins. Wilds can appear on reels 2 to 6 in the base game, and on reels 2, 3, and 4 in the bonus round. Wilds do not hold any value of their own in Fishin' Pots of Gold: Gold Blitz slot.

You can land the Leprechaun Collect symbol on any reel, and it will collect all cash and/or jackpot symbols in view. The cash symbols come with smaller prizes, while the jackpot symbols are worth 25x, 250x, and 2,500x your stake for the Minor, Major, and Mega jackpot, respectively.

You need 3+ scatters in view to trigger the bonus round, and this also awards a smaller scatter win payout. You can choose between 2 different bonus rounds in this game, and below is an overview of what you can expect:

• 3 triggering scatters awards 1x your stake and 8 FS or 2 Gold Blitz spins.
• 4 triggering scatters awards 2x your stake and 12 FS or 3 Gold Blitz spins.
• 5 triggering scatters awards 3x your stake and 20 FS or 5 Gold Blitz spins.
• 6 triggering scatters awards 5x your stake and 30 FS or 7 Gold Blitz spins.

In the Free Spins feature you’ll benefit from an x2, x3, or x5 multiplier when the wild symbol is involved in a win, and each wild applies its multiplier to the win if more than one wild is part of the same line win. You win 5, 8, 12, 20, or 30 extra spins when you land 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 scatters on the same free spin, respectively.

The Gold Blitz Bonus Round comes with fewer free spins, but only blanks, collect, cash, and/or jackpot symbols will appear per spin. In addition, you are guaranteed to land at least 1 Collect symbol per spin, and this equals a guaranteed win per spin. There is no way to retrigger the Gold Blitz feature, however, and extra spins cannot be won either.

The Bonus Buy feature is available in some jurisdictions, but not in the UK for sure. If eligible, you can pay 75x, 120x, or 150x your stake for 4, 5, or 6 triggering scatters, respectively. You can then choose between the regular free spins round and the Gold Blitz feature, and extra triggering scatters can land when you purchase 4 or 5. Either way, the small upfront scatter win gives you what amounts to a discount.

The 200 Spins Fishin' Pots of Gold: Gold Blitz Slot Experience

You get a brief taste of the base game, before we purchase a 6-scatters trigger, and we went with the Gold Blitz feature first. It starts close to the 1-minute mark, and we purchase 30 free spins at 4:18 into the 7:30-minute highlights video. You can check it all out for yourself by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

Instead of simply making a follow-up to their previous leprechaun and fishing slot mashup, Gameburger has decided to clone someone else's work. Fishin' Pots of Gold: Gold Blitz is a straight up reskin of Fortune Factory Studios’ Gold Blitz, and they don’t seem too shy about it either. The game is a psychedelic trip to say the least, with dancing mushrooms and rainbow colors all over the place, and the main character looks like a Leprechaun version of Elton John.

The audiovisuals are very “in your face”, so you either love it or hate it, as there is no in-between with this game. Solid cash prizes can be collected also in the base game, and you get multiplier wilds in the free spins round. The Gold Blitz feature is the main attraction, however, and it’s admittedly fun to collect prizes on every spin. How big the prizes are will vary a lot, of course, but total wins up to 5,000x your stake is possible. The remake choice is a somewhat strange one, as it doesn’t take that much effort to make something a bit more original to avoid the reskin stamp.
