Golden Tour Playtech

Golden Tour Slot Review

Golden Tour is a great 5 reel slot game. I don't even like golf myself, but still I found the graphics to be quite endearing, and the game it be very entertaining. Especially as there is a bonus round to get to! There are 5 paylines and a top jackpot of 2000 credits for this game. There are also scatter symbols which are the key to getting to the bonus round. You need to get all 3 different scatters and you'll get to the bonus round. In the bonus round, you'll need to choose 3 golf clubs after which you'll see a guy make a shot and award a prize to you accordingly. This is really good fun, and a nice bonus round to go after.

Golden Tour Scatter symbols and bonus game

The gopher, duck and catfish symbols are scatter symbols – when you get 3 or more of these symbols (of the same kind) on the screen during one round, lying consecutively, you enter the bonus round. The symbols don’t have to follow any payline, meaning they can be on any position on the reel.

In the bonus game, choose a driver, an iron and then a putter. You will win a prize based on these three clubs you choose. If you entered the bonus game with four scatter symbols and not just three, your prize is tripled. If you entered with five scatter symbols, your prize is multiplied by ten.

The two balls symbol can stand in for both the orange and the white ball, whichever makes for a better winning combination. For example, if you get a combination of orange ball – orange ball – two balls – white ball – white ball, the two balls symbol acts in both combinations and you get two payouts: one for three orange balls, and one for three white balls.

Golden Tour Dollar Ball

This is a lotto-type progressive sidegame where you pick 5 numbers out of 49. Then once you start the main game, five numbers will be drawn randomly. The more numbers match your selection, the more you win. If all five numbers match, you win the Jackpot.

Dollar Ball resides in the top right part of the screen. Click Enable to play it. You will see a set of numbers, from 1 to 49. Click on any five of them to select manually (click again to deselect), or click on Random pick to have it done for you automatically. If you want to change the selected numbers, click on any of the already selected numbers to uncheck them, and then click the new ones. Click Activate to hide the numbers and confirm your selection. While the Dollar Ball is activated, an additional Jackpot bet is automatically made each time you make a bet in the main game. The value of the Jackpot bet is fixed and you can find it in the Dollar Ball interface. If you want to cancel the Dollar Ball game, click Disable.

Dollar Ball will be played along with every main game round, with the same numbers, until you either change the numbers or disable the sidegame.

Your numbers will be shown in a row of white circles at the top of the screen. Once you start a round of the main game, the drawn numbers will appear just above them. If any of the numbers match your selection, the circles containing these numbers will change color to green and your win amount will appear below. It will be added to your balance along with any winnings from the main game round. Dollar Ball wins are paid according to the paytable for Dollar Ball which can be found in the main game paytable. Wins received from 1, 2, or 3 correct numbers are fixed wins and their winning amounts calculated by multiplying the Jackpot bet by the corresponding multiplier.

In addition to the fixed wins, the Dollar Ball includes progressive wins. A small percentage of each Jackpot bet is added to the common pot by every person playing this game. When a player gets the right result (the five numbers selected match the five numbers drawn), that player wins the entire Jackpot. It is also possible to win part of the Jackpot (1% of the Jackpot) if four out of the five numbers selected match four of the numbers drawn.

After a Jackpot has been won, a new pot is started, with the casino contributing a base amount of money (called a seed). This ensures that even if you get a Jackpot result in a game right after someone else has won the Jackpot, you will still get a large win.

Please note:

  • You have to make a Jackpot bet to be eligible for the Jackpot.
  • You do not have to win the main game round to win the Jackpot.
  • The Jackpot contribution applies only when you play with the Dollar Ball enabled.
  • All paytable wins and multipliers for the Dollar Ball game correspond to the Jackpot bet only.
  • If a Jackpot is being discontinued (a game is closed and removed from the casino client), you will be notified of it by the casino.
