Playtech has given its players a New Year’s gift in the form of the next video slot in the Age of the Gods series. The title is Mighty Midas, named after the king whose touch converted everything to gold. The slot game is live at Playtech online casinos like Omni Casino and Mansion Casino.

The reels are set in a huge hall in which everything has been turned into gold. The stricture is five reels and four rows with 40 fixed paylines. The high paying symbols are characters from the mythology that appear expanded over two rows. They are led by Mighty Midas that awards the top line payout of 500 times the line bet. The low paying symbols are some of the items that Midas turns into gold in the story.

The slot game has several innovative features. The Midas Touch symbol is a hand that points to the left. The symbol that it points to will turn into a golden wild symbol. All instances of that symbol on the reels will be transformed into a golden wild. Midas touch symbols collapse from the reels and are replaced by new ones. If a Midas Touch symbol pints to a golden wild it increases the multiplier, first to 2x and then to 3x. The Midas Touch symbols land only on reels 3, 4 or 5.

The scatter symbol is a pentagon with five different gems. When it lands on reels 1 and 5 in the same spin it randomly triggers one of five bonus features. The Emerald Bonus reveals a cash prize and a multiplier. Your payout is the product of the two. In the Ruby Spins the golden wild symbol automatically takes on a multiplier that can range from 5x to 25x. In case of multiple golden wild symbols, the multipliers are added together. However, the multiplier value will be capped at 30x. In the Amber Spins feature a randomly chosen symbol will act as the golden wild symbol. The Sapphire Spins feature adds wild symbols to the reel strips. The first spin adds 55 wild symbols to reel 2. The second spin adds 40 wild symbols to reel 3. The third spin adds 65 wild symbols to reel 4. You get 5 Sapphire Spins in total. All Midas Touch symbols appear double stacked during Amethyst Spins.
