game machine is for the true fans of Microgaming. From first glance, one thing becomes obvious – the release is very-very old. But for everyone willing to reset to simple wagering, this may just be a nice break amidst modern and sometimes overcomplicated slot machines. ...

It landed me about $13 and I decided to play more on Winter Gold to get more knowledge about it. For $0.75 / 5 coins a spin it pays really well. There have been returns that had $1 or more back to me after I placed bets.

The bonus is a Chance Wheel. A random spin could land Free spins, prize credits or a sport's event which pays bonuses credits. Whenever I trigger this bonus wheel, I always receive Free spins or an event like Speed Skating! 11 Free spins at 3x are commonly what I get sometimes it's 15 Free spins at 4x. For 11 Free spins at 3x, my total win resulted for $10.65 only...however when it came to 15 Free spins at 4x I received a better sum of $28.80! The Speed Skating round is a choice for me to choose a skater to race for 1st place. This allows for really good credits to be won here. I would pick the skater in blue or the skater in yellow. Luckily I never hit 3rd, 4th or 5th place, only the 2nd and 1st places! $26.25 were my wins for 2nd place but when it becomes my choice to be granted 1st for the correct skater to win gold then my prizes would range somewhere in the $50 areas.

It's hard to pin point what I will get because these bonuses are so random! The other bonus events I haven't gotten but I will stay to see if they are any different then Speed Skating.

I can play this game for a long time with out loosing interest or getting bored. There are 15 lines in this game so my usual bet is €0.45. On this bet i can monitor my money and also have a chance to win a lot. The first time i played this game i did not check the pay table and kept on playing on the smallest bet (€0.15) after about 15 spins i hit five wilds and won €50, in total on that spin i won over €60. Since that i have been addicted to this game and play it till this day.

Another great thing about this game is the feature. There are four bonuses, cash prize and free spins in this game. They are all on one wheel and you need to spin it to find out what you are going to be awarded. To get to the wheel i had to get three or more gold medals. I never managed to get five but i did get four a couple of times. I played all of the bonuses and got the cash prize and the free spins. I like free spins best. You can get up to 20 free spins with 4x. I got them few times and my max win was over €100 on a €0.45 bet.

Over all the game is just awesome.if i was to rate this game i would give it 10 out of 10.

Playing this Winter Games game from Microgaming rekindles a little bit of those excitement and thrill, whilst comfortably seated in a warm home environment. Ah, the wonders of modern technology, hehehe.

I like the look and size of the individual sporting icons. They are nicely presented, are big in size and not looking cluttered, not like the icons in Break Away, the ice hockey game, with some icons being cluttered and looking messy. That snowy animation of the background scenario in this Winter Gold game completes the winter atmosphere very nicely indeed, making me feel very cool, relaxed and comfortable playing the game. Only a very few Microgaming games can do this to me.

The logo 'Winter Gold' is the Wild symbol, paying 5000x the line bet for getting 5 of them. Sadly, it only does substitution of other symbols except the Scatter symbol, and doesn't do anything else like doubling of wins, becoming stacked or expanding on the reels. Still a dumb symbol to me. The Gold Medal is the Scatter symbol, paying a very good 400x the total bet for 5 of them, and getting 3 or more of these Scatters trigger the Bonus Wheel Feature. A spin of this Bonus Wheel determines the prize to be awarded, either an instant Coins win, a Free Spins game, a Bobsleigh race, a Biathlon race, a Ski Jumping race or a Speed Skating race. The Free Spins game can be up to 20 free spins with up to 4x multiplier, and can be retriggered too. Nice! Win up to 18,000 coins, or 60x the total bet amount, in any of the 4 race event.

As for the other symbols in the game, the highest paying symbol is the Bobsleigh, paying 1250x, followed by the Speed Skating symbol paying 1000x, then the Ski jumping symbol paying 750x and the Biathlon symbol paying 500x, all per line bet for getting 5 of each kind. The lower symbols pay from 150x to 60x the line bet for 5 of each kind. A good paytable.

Playing this Winter Gold game was indeed fun and entertaining for me. I have played it many times over the years, but not quite getting any nice big wins from it. All my previous and current wins could not exceed the 100x total bet amount. Maybe it's just not my luck, which never seems to be good with any of Microgaming games, strangely enough, or those big wins were simply eluding me all this while. But the consistent payouts of between 25x up to 50x the total bet amount aren't so bad and should be quite satisfactory enough for most. For me, it must always be more! Hehehe.
