Update March 2021: The game is exclusive at Pokerstars but you can find other Pragmatic Play slots at our tested casinos.
Slot Details
El Dorado The City of Gold Megaways is a cascading video slot with six reels and up to eight rows as well as 324 to 200,704 ways to win. You can go on a reel expedtion on desktop, mobile and tablet from 0.20 to 100 credits per spin. The game has maximum volatility (5/5) with an RTP range between 96.47 – 96.58% depending on whether the Ante Bet is activated.
Thanks to the Megaways engine there are virtually unlimited combinations of rows and ways to win between the minimum 324 ways and the maximum of 200,704, which makes each spin a unique event. The number of ways is randomly determined at the start of a spin sequence by selecting between two and seven pay symbols for all main reels. Additionally, the game has an extra reel at the top of the game window with four positions, extending from reel 2 to 5, where more symbols appear on every spin. A small display in the top right corner will show the current number of active Megaways.
Wins are paid for two to six matching symbols on adjacent reels from left to right only. The symbols from a winning combination will set off a chain reaction and disappear to make room for new symbols to drop into place. This continues as long as a new winning combo occurs after a tumble.
The pay symbols start at the low end with the card royals from 10 through to A, awarding 1x to 1.5x your stake for a single six of a kind. They are followed by frogs, toucans, leopards and an Aztec princess. Hit six across the reels to win 1.5x to 50x your bet for a single six of a kind. The Aztec tribal chief is the wild symbol, appearing in the horizontal reel only and substituting for all regular pay symbols. A typical Aztec temple acts as the scatter.
El Dorado The City of Gold Megaways Slot Features
El Dorado The City of Gold Megaways is an exclusive slot produced by Pragmatic Play for Pokerstars. And they simply chose to clone Great Rhino Megaways, which is not unusual in the industry. Well, let’s take another look at the features.
Core to the gameplay is, of course, the Megaways reel mechanic with 324 – 200,704 ways to win and tumbling symbols. While you can score big wins purely because of the sheer amount of ways, the most potential to reach the cap of 20,000 times bet lingers in the bonus round. Having four gold coin scatters in view at the end of a spin sequence will trigger the Free Spins feature with four options to choose from.
- High Volatility: 5 free spins with an x10 starting multiplier
- Medium Volatility: 10 free spins with an x5 starting multiplier
- Lowest Volatility: 15 free spins with an x1 starting multiplier
- Mystery Choice: Click on the mystery tile to see the game randomly choosing 5, 10 or 15 free spins and an x1, x5 or x10 starting multiplier. Be lucky and get 15 free spins with the x10 starting multiplier or unlucky when only five free spins with the x1 starting multiplier are revealed.
Each extra scatter landing on the triggering spin will add +4 free spins to the tally. The game will then start the bonus round with the selected amount of free spins and multiplier. During the feature, scatters appear on the main reels with three on a spin awarding +5 free spins, no limits. The main attraction though is the unlimited multiplier. It will start at the selected value and increase by x1 after every winning reaction, again, no limits.
The Ante Bet is making another appearance. Activating it will add 25% extra on top of your default bet for which the game adds more free spin symbols to the reels.
Final Verdict
El Dorado The City of Gold Megaways won’t have you jumping into your explorer gear or heading for the South-American jungle, but it provides solid Megaways play with the added suspense should you decide to take the mystery option on the feature selector screen.
