Hand of Midas

Ancient Greek myths are a rich source of inspiration for slots developers, and Pragmatic Play has contributed to this genre of games with Hand of Midas slot. This high volatility slot has an RTP of 96.54%, and you can bet from 20p up to £125 per spin. The action takes place on a 4x3 grid with 20 paylines, and the top prize on offer is 5000 coins. I certainly enjoyed trying Hand of Midas online slot UK, so read on to find out what I discovered!

Theme & Graphics

Hand of Midas slot graphics are richly detailed and of high quality. They have the look of a high-quality fantasy animated movie. The reels are set in front of a shadowy scene that looks like it might be the palace of King Midas. The higher value symbols on the reels all relate to the story of King Midas in some way. If you don’t know the story, he could turn everything he touched into gold until he realised that there were certain disadvantages to having this skill. Therefore, one higher value symbol is the god Dionysus, from whom the gift of gold came. You’ll also see a golden girl, a bowl of fruit and a cup of wine, as well as King Midas himself. The lower value symbols are all numbers and letters.

The wild symbol is a golden W, and it can only appear on the second, third and fourth reels. In addition to substituting for other symbols, it will also add multipliers to any wins it helps create. I’ll tell you more about the important role the wild plays in other bonus features later. The golden hand of Midas is the scatter symbol. Hand of Midas slot mobile players will enjoy the same graphics quality as desktop players, which I discovered when I tried the game on my phone. Overall, the graphics are pretty good while probably not quite hitting the top rank possible.

Slot Game Statistics

Like many other seasoned slots fans, I like to know about the hard facts before I decide to try it. If you're like me, here are some of the game's key facts and figures for you.

I found that I could set my bet levels from 20p to £125, so there is plenty of scope for all types of players. The action occurs on a 5x3 reel grid on which 20 paylines are in Play. Pragmatic Play has given the slot high volatility, so patience was a key quality as I waited for the larger wins to spin in. I didn't get close to winning the top prize of 5000 coins, but the free spins feature was fun to play, and sticky wild symbols and additional multipliers nicely complimented it.

Hand of Midas Bonus Features

 There are three features of Hand of Midas slot that can improve your chances of winning. Here are the details I discovered about them.

Wild Multipliers: Wild symbols are really important in Hand of Midas slot. When they appear on the reels in the base game, they activate a random multiplier of x1, x2 or x3. This is then displayed in Hand of Midas statue adjacent to the reels. This multiplier is then applied to any wins that appear on that spin, even if wild symbols do not contribute.

Free Spins: Hand of Midas slot's main bonus feature is the free spins game. This is triggered when at least three scatter symbols appear anywhere in view. A set of mini reels will then appear and spin to determine the number of free spins you receive. The number of mini reels will be the same as the number of scatters. If three mini reels are used, you can get up to 27 free spins; for four reels, it's 36, and for five reels, the maximum is 45.

Sticky Wilds: Any wild symbols that appear on the actual reels during the free spins will lock in place and increase the multiplier on offer by x1, x2 or x3.

Should You Play Hand of Midas Slot Online?

Overall, I have given Hand of Midas slot a rating of 7/10. The graphics are solid without being spectacular. I certainly enjoyed playing the free spins feature, and the sticky wilds and multipliers were very handy when it came to boosting my winnings. The game did not quite hit the heights of other Ancient Greek-themed slots I’ve played, but I’d certainly recommend heading over to Slots Racer and trying it for yourself!
