Midas Millions

Despite its particular panel form, “Midas Millions” is a video slot whose theme has nothing to do with bees and much to do with that fable character that turned everything he touched into gold.

Initially, I was attracted to this slot mainly for its shape, but I immediately realized that this was a quite popular and well-voted game in the casino where I was playing today, which is always a good sign to make the decision to try a slot.

Here “Ash Gaming” has broken some traditional schemes and decided that hits are done by grouping matching symbols instead of forming lines, so that a winning combination should have at least a group of 4 symbols located adjacent each other, and on the paytable they are contemplated payouts for groups until of 12 of a kind.

The main strength of Midas Millions slot is it has a set of three different wild symbols, all with the ability to replace regular symbols, but each has particular properties this way: Midas Millions Wild only replaces symbols, Gold Midas Millions Wild replaces but also multiplies by 2x your winnings, and finally, Super Midas Millions Wild is the star of the stage since although this symbol can only appear on the central reel, this makes King Midas appear in order to touch and turn up to 6 adjacent symbols into Gold Wild symbols, often generating big wins as a result.

This slot has also been equipped with a 10 free spins round with locked wilds, however, I think I am more satisfied by the performance of this slot during the base game than during this round since at that stage of the game I have achieved big wins up to 30x my total bet during a single spin assisted by the Super Midas Millions feature, much more than what I have been able to get so far in free spins.

I think that sometimes old slots have more unexpected surprises than many of the slots released in recent times, and personally, I think this is one of those cases because the Super Midas feature has an excellent winning potential and also occurs more frequently what we might expect; obviously this slot does not give us anything for free, but since its best feature occurs with some regularity, we could increase our betting level when we believe that King Midas is ready to arise.

Today I have felt satisfied with the performance of this slot and I think that at the moment this is a strong candidate to be included in my list of favorite slots.

When I was 5 years old (I was not even a school boy) I remember that downtown the city where I live there was a jewelry shop that had a showcase with an arrangement in hexagons similar to this game. Each hexagon had six watches, each watch on one side. Only one side of each hexagon was visible at a certain moment. The hexagons were rotating and formed different combinations of watches.I lost dozens hours watching fascinated to these arrangements. Each time the arrangement was different and was shining in another way.

I do not know if the designers of this slot were inspired by the same arrangement but the idea of “Midas millions” slot is lightning! With only 10 cents to have 118700 ways to win is amazing indeed. The idea is absolute new and it kept me glued to this slot for an hour and about 250 slot spins. So here, any combination from four adjacent symbols upwards pays. The symbols do not need to be horizontally adjacent on consecutive reels, they can also be on the same reel on the vertical direction. And of course this can pay quite a small sum of money (like the playing cards – minor symbols) or have an exorbitant payout (like the luxury items – major symbols of the slot).

What I liked here is that just as easily one can have combinations that bring a ridiculous payout and wining combinations of symbols that will really make you become a millionaire. To these combinations contributes of course the Simple Wild and and Super Wild symbols. When you have two Wilds on the reels the Midas King who reigns on the back of the slot will connect them with a Gold Wild, that will double the value of the combination it enters. Also when you have a Super Wild, the Midas King, will assign randomly in the adjacent boxes up to 6 Gold Wilds. The wins will be huge in this case. And take into account that these Simple Wilds and Super Wilds are very frequent here!

In addition there is even a round of Free Spins. During the 10 Free Spins at random the Midas King will assign Locked Wilds instead of symbols at almost every Free Spin. Imagine that you have 8 Locked Wilds.For 12 symbols of the same type (playing at the maximum bet) you will have a payout of 1 million coins!

I will not say here how much I won or I lost in total but as to give a reliable description of these amounts I will say: Just enough!I do this because my desire is that the player will discover himself the slot and its extraordinary possibilities. It is definitely one of the best slots from AshGaming casinos built on a totally now idea of playing.
