Golden Goddess Slot

The beautiful colours, the realistic symbols, the fabulous background image and the little decorations everywhere makes this game’s look very attractive. Some say this is a fantasy slot and like to create a story around the young lady and man, white dove, red rose, horse (and card) symbols, but I don’t see it that way and to be honest I really don’t care about it at all I just want to take pleasure in the sight of it.

Fortunately, IGT didn’t stop there creating such appearance and offers a great Super Stacks feature by the slot. It means before each spin every reel has a randomly selected symbol that becomes stacked format and if it appears the whole reel transform to the same symbol. Every figure may pop up on every reel so it can happen that all five reels contain the same emblem giving out a huge winning.

I think this slot is very simple and too complicated at the same time and the game rules and facts are not necessary mean anything to players (at least for me) because of the 40 lines, the stacked symbols and accumulated winning combinations so the best figure’s (Golden Goddess that is also the Wild) ability to give out 1000 coins is basically not relevant. 7 free spins are triggered when the all 9 positions of the inner reels contain Red Roses and we have to pick a Rose to reveal one of the 4 most paying symbol and that icon will be the Super Stacks figure on all reels during the free spins.

See? I always just focus on how many same symbols appear on the screen and big surprises can’t catch me. I usually play with from minimal €0.40 to €2 total bets and can say the super stack feature really does its job. I had some great returns and could collect good money and the free spins’ power to have more stacked appearances is also realized when all positions of the reels except 2 showed the young man and with other winnings of that session I won around €200. I find it really profitable slot despite the fact there could be many non-winning spins but suddenly a lucky accumulated stacked appearances really can turn the whole things over.

I played here for about an hour and a half and I left this slot only a very big regret even if I had not won something extra, and there was a moment when I finished almost all the money available initially for playing, and just a very lucky spin made the difference between total disaster and the ability to continue the game.

To explain just a bit why this slot is so appealing, I need to say that this is the only one I had played until now, that has the so-called “Super Stacked Symbols”. Which means that a reel, as long as it spins, it has the same symbols on it. And so 2, 3 and rarely 4 or 5 reels, land all on the same symbol.In general just two reels will stop having the same symbol on them at the same moment, or even worse, reels 2, 3, 4 will land on the same symbol but on reel one will be different symbols and thus again the win be zero. In the overwhelming majority of wins for a bet of 40 coins, you will be paid between 120-200 coins, once every 5-10 spins (i.e. a win of 3 x-5 x only), which is not enough, of course. However, from time to time about once every 15 minutes of playing (150-200 spins) you will obtain a “Big Win” of 600-1200 coins.

Everything would be fine and probably the money would be just enough, if the entry in the Free Spins round would not be so difficult. It is necessary that 3 different reels land all on "Roses", fact almost impossible (because the "Rose" is a not common symbol of the game). In 500 spins only once I triggered the Free Spins and despite of the large wins (1,000 coins) still I have not managed to get back on track with the money. Maybe someone luckier than me, because of these wins so big, would be able to gather something extra.

The game itself is still beautiful for its overwhelming brilliance and greatness, and perhaps with a little more generosity would have gone without a doubt to the top 5 ever. Like this is just a slot a bit better than the average.

That Blonde Goddess in the game isn't the most beautiful I've seen, but she has a certain attractiveness that instantly catches your eyes. Or was it just me? Hmm, never mind. Women tend to do that to me, all the time! Hahaha.

The logo 'Golden Goddess' is the Wild symbol, paying a low 1000x the line bet for 5 of them. It doesn't double any wins but substitutes for all symbols except for the Red Rose Bonus symbol, which only appears on reels 2, 3 and 4. Unfortunately though, the Scatter symbol doesn't pay anything for itself, which is such a shame. Less winning chances from its absence. But fear not, and worry not, because all symbols come fully Stacked on all reels, both in the base game and in the Free Spins game too, so more chances of wins are indeed possible. The Goddess is the highest paying symbol besides the Wild symbol, paying 50x the line bet for 5 of her. The Man or God, whichever, pays 40x the line bet, whilst all other symbols pay from 30x to 11x the line bet for 5 of each kind. Hmm, the values for all symbols are very low indeed, grouping this game with a few other games that has a very very low paytable.

One would expect getting 3 or more Red Rose Scatter symbols to activate the Free Spins game right? Not in this game. You need to get 3 full reels of them to activate the Free Spins game, or 9 Scatter symbols to be precise. Oh boy! That certainly sounds too much to get, and without getting any payout from it either. Only 7 free spins are awarded, damn, and without any win multiplier either, double damn! Don't know if the Free Spins can be retriggered or not, I didn't see any such indication in the paytable, or perhaps I had missed it. Nonetheless, I never got it anyway. The only way to get good wins in the Free Spins game is to get all-of-a-kind wins, which is possible when the symbols get transformed into one same symbol, if you're lucky enough. I wasn't.
