In order to start the game, players should adjust their bet first. The activated pay-lines will be highlighted and vary from 1 to 25. The “Bet” box displays the amount staked per line and can be adjusted from 0.20 to 2. “Auto spins” button enables reels to turn without interruption ranging from 5 to 1000. The “Total Bet” shows the value equal to the number of pay-lines selected, multiplied by the bet per line value. Once you are ready to start, simply hit the “Spin” button.
The Wild is the Water Lily which replaces any other symbols but Scatter and surely helps the winning combination. Taj Mahal Temple is the Scatter. If you find 3, 4 or 5 Scatter symbols they will give you 5, 10 or 15 free spins respectively.
The Golden Princess is the Bonus and you need at least 3 Bonus symbols on any active pay-line to start the bonus game. You can choose 3 out of 6 plates and The Golden Princess will reward you with the rain of golden coins.
Any pay-line win will activate the Gamble Feature. Once it is activated, simply click on the Gamble control and start the Gamble Game. Your last win amount becomes the stake in the Gamble Game round. You can keep that amount or you can continue playing in order to increase it!
If you guess the color of the next card, your win will be doubled. In case you guess the suit, the winning will be increased 4 times! If you make a correct guess you will win, if you don’t, you will lose and will be taken back to the main game. You can always increase your winning, but remember maximum 5 rounds can be available per each Gamble game.

Back in those earlier years of mine, I was playing just about any game there was, regardless of which game provider it came from. However, after years of experience, some providers get left out from my regular playing list, simply due to unpleasant or unfavourable circumstances I had faced. GamesOS is one of them, and Golden India was one of the games that I had played when it was newly released many years ago. Now I'm back on it again, but playing it only for this once, just one last time, for writing a review sake, to refresh all the old memories on it.
In those days, I wasn't concerned at all about how the paytable would be. I was only concerned on how the game would play and pay out, either goodly or badly. Honestly speaking, when Golden India was still fresh from the oven, so to speak, the game played not too badly, as I can remember it, but I couldn't win on it, even after several tries. But now I'm back to blast the game in revenge, because my recent play on it was nothing short of a horrifying disaster!
Golden India plays with 25 paylines, with the Flower as the Wild symbol, substituting for other symbols except the Scatter and the Bonus symbols. It is a totally dumb Wild symbol as it does nothing else. It doesn't pay for itself, it doesn't double any wins with it, and it doesn't become stacked or expanded. The Taj Mahal is the Scatter symbol, again another dumb symbol that doesn't pay anything for itself, but getting 3, 4 or 5 of them triggers 5, 10 or 15 free spins without any multiplier. What the argh! The Princess is the Bonus symbol, yeah, the third dumb symbol in the game, that only award the Princess Bonus game by getting 3 or more of them on any active payline. As for the other symbols in the game, The Cow pays 500x, the Tiger pays 200x, the Peacock pays 200x too, and the rest pay from 100x to 50x, all per line bet for 5 of each kind. A ridiculously low paytable!
In the Princess Bonus game, pick 3 out of 6 plates to win instant cash prizes, but don't ever be surprised by the size of the prizes! They are simply ridiculously low! As for the Free Spins game, how much can 5 free spins without any win multiplier pay? Wanna know the answer? It's hardly ever more than 1x your total bet amount! My last play on the game gave me 3 Free Spins games, and they paid out 0.5x, 1x and 0.7x my bet amount! How's that for a super duper ridiculously outrageous low payouts? The Princess Bonus games were even worse! They paid me 0.15 EUR, 0.70 EUR and 0.35 EUR for my 0.25 EUR bets. The best I got was not even 3x my bet amount!
What do I dislike most about this Golden India game? All of it! The damn low values of the symbols, the non-paying Wild symbols, the non-paying Scatter symbols, the non-paying Bonus symbols, the rubbish prizes from the Princess Bonus games, as well as the rubbish payouts from the Free Spins games. Not one single thing is worth anything in Golden India. This game is meant to lay quietly in the deepest ocean, never to be disturbed!
