Gold Fever has 5 reels, 4 rows and 20 fixed pay-lines. There are 3 types of wilds in it. The dynamite wilds you will collect in a special meter and use to trigger 4 special features. They give you wilds, multiplier boosts, and removing of low-value symbols from the game.
The Gold Spins you can re-trigger and have a total of from 8 up to 18 from activating and re-activating the feature. You can play the game with wagers from 0.10 to 20 credits per spin.

The game takes place in a mine shaft piled with flickering gold nuggets. The reel set has a wild dynamite meter above and 4 padlocks over it for each extra modifying feature. Once you unlock any of the four extras, one of the padlocks is replaced with the respective symbol. The tune is pleasant and merging into the action when you trigger more boosting features. The symbols are well-designed, full of colour and look nice. There are lamps, helmets, bags of gold nuggets, picks and shovels.
The symbols at the low end of the pay-table are the 4 card suits styled as gemstones each with a different colour. The bearded gold miner is the best-rewarding one. The dynamite wild, the gold bar and the dynamite symbols are all wilds. The soundtrack is country music with dynamic tunes playing at the more suspenseful moments. It is in American style and fits perfectly in the gold mining theme of the slot. Gold Fever is a dynamic, well-styled and pleasant game as far as graphics and music are concerned.
The low-value symbols are the 4 card suits which 4 gemstones represent. The picture ones are the premium symbols. They include gas lamps, helmets, pouches of gold, picks and shovels. The most rewarding symbol is the miner with the beard, which gives you 15 times your stake for 5 of it on a pay-line.
There are 3 kinds of wild symbols, which include the dynamite, the gold bar and the diamond. All of them substitute for missing symbols and pay a 15x stake for 5 identical symbols in a row. Every time you land of the dynamite wild on the reels, it will light and burn a length of the fuse on the meter. This progresses you through the dynamite meter above the reels. After you land enough dynamite wild symbols this will make the dynamite explode. As a result, it will unlock one of the 4 special features, padlocked above. These are:
Once you trigger any of the above features, it comes into play for the next spin only. After it the spin ends, the game goes on normally.
