Trolls Gold Review

Nowadays, internet trolls are lurking everywhere, but the mythological cave-dwellers have their origins in Scandinavian folklore. Relax Gaming has captured this phenomena nicely in Troll's Gold, and there’s a hint of Grieg’s famous Hall of the Mountain King found in the excellent soundtrack. The creator of Money Train 1 and 2 has nothing to prove in the hold-and-win style genre, but it never hurts to remind everyone who’s boss on a regular basis.

Troll's Gold is not as complicated as the aforementioned installments, but it does come with a collector symbol you’ll see on rare occasions in the Treasure Trove Re-Spins feature. The base game is balanced out with a Lock-In Re-spins feature of its own, and combined with multiplying multiplier wilds things can become quite tense. While not up there with MT2, Troll’s Gold flies way above the regular hold-and-win releases we see all the time.

Troll's Gold Slot Features

The golden wild symbols land on reels 2 to 5 only, and they step in for all regular pay symbols to help you form winning combinations. The wilds can land with multipliers of x1, x2 or x3, and multiple multiplier wilds in the same winning combo means that the respective multiplier values are multiplied with each other up to a maximum of x81.

Landing a stack of matching pay symbols on the first reel triggers the Lock-in Re-spins feature. The triggering stack, plus any wilds and/or matching symbols on the grid, becomes frozen in place for a respin.

The Treasure Trove Re-spins bonus round is triggered when you land a stack of gold coin bags on reel 1. The reel set moves underground, into a cave filled with gold, as the regular symbols are removed while only the triggering gold bags remain frozen in place. The hold-and-win-style feature comes with a single respin life only.

You thus need to land at least one new non-blank symbol per respin to keep the feature going, and only gold bag money symbols, treasure chests collectors and blanks will land. The coin bags award multiplier prizes of 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x and 10x your stake, while the treasure chests collect all values currently in view.

All coin bags and treasure chests that land become sticky, and their gold is also collected in a meter on the right-hand side.

Non-UK players, or anyone living in permitted jurisdictions, can take advantage of the Bonus Buy option. You can thus purchase the Treasure Trove Re-Spins feature for 60x your total stake. This awards a full stack of gold bags on reel 1 for the spin that follows. The RTP also increases to 96.61 % if you buy the bonus round.

Review Summary

With the release of Troll's Gold, Relax Gaming is fortifying their position as the “uncrowned king” of hold & win style games. It’s far from being as massive and intricate as their mega hit, Money Train 2, but you get well-balanced gameplay combined with a solid math model. Multiplying Wild multipliers can lead to 1,215x payouts in the base game, and the occasional Lock-in Re-Spins feature is also a welcome break from the grind.

Once you’ve collected the first 12 symbols to fill the bottom rung on the Meter in the Treasure Trove Re-spins, it’s pretty much a thrill-ride going forward.

Pros

• Multiplying multiplier wilds up to x81
• Reel 1 symbol stacks Lock-In Re-spins
• Treasure Trove Re-Spins w/ bonus meter
• Win up to 10,000x your stake

Cons

• 60x Bonus Buy not for UK players

If you love Troll's Gold Slot you should also try:

Money Train 2 - is considered the best hold & win style game out there by a long shot, and it’s a true masterpiece by the hand of Relax Gaming. You get respins with progressive multiplier in the base game, and there are 9 modifier symbols that can benefit you to the tune of 50,000x your stake in the Money Cart bonus round.

Top Dawgs - is another excellent Relax Gaming release that comes with streak mystery respins in the base game. The bonus round awards sticky progressive multiplier wilds, and this can lead to solid payouts up to 25,000x your stake. The Hip Hop theme is unpretentious and fun, and we’re surprised this one didn’t get more attention.

Money Cart 2 - is a Money Train 2 follow-up made especially for those who don’t feel like waiting to trigger the Money Cart round. You will trigger the feature around every 5 to 10 “base game” spins, and it plays out the same as in the original MT2 except for the reduced 5,000x max win potential.
