Miss Midas is no longer available for real play at Wombat Casino. Have you tried the Midas Magic? An excellent game from Infinitiy Dragon Studio.
The wombat says: King Midas was that mythical Greek dude who turned everything he touched into gold. It sounds pretty awesome doesn’t it? But it didn’t turn out too well for the old king; legend has it that the poor sod starved to death, after discovering that any food he touched also turned into gold.
Anyway, we’re not sure if Miss Midas is related to the ill-fated King – but she really does like to turn things into gold including your reels! This wombat hopes the Midas Palace has got central heating though, otherwise Miss Midas will catch her death in that spangly bikini…She’s giving Lara in our original Tomb Raider slot a run for her money in the fashion stakes!
I can imagine our favourite mermaid in the Ariana Slot hitting the town with her. Like two peas in a pod!
Game Play
Miss Midas slot game has your standard 5 reels, 3 rows, and 25 pay lines. It’s a NextGen slot (those lovely people behind Dolphin Gold).
Your high value symbols are: romantic roses and fruit bowls (?), ornate thrones and big old peacocks, along with the standard 9, 10, J, Q, K and A. Miss Midas herself is the Wild symbol and she only appears on reel 3, but she also can pop up and turn the symbols next to her into golden Wilds on reels 2,3 and 4. Combine this with some very regal sounding trumpets that herald your spins, and overall you’ve got a right royal game, that even Queen Lizzy herself would approve of. Well, HRH does like a flutter apparently…
Free Spins and Scatter
Get 3, 4 or 5 of the Midas Palace Scatter symbols, and you’ll off trigger 15, 20 or 25 free spins – which should put a big smile on your chops. Although there are no multipliers in the Miss Midas slot, all the extra golden Wilds make up for it.
Superbet
One again NextGen have provided us with their trademark Superbet feature. It’s an easy way to lose your coins if you forget to turn it off, but worth a punt from time to time! Increase the number of symbols that can be turned into gold Wilds by spending some of your credits – there are 3 Superbet modes and here are your options:
-Off – Only peacocks and thrones become golden wilds (free)
-Superbet 1 – Peacocks, throne, and fruit bowl become golden wilds ( 10 coins)
-Superbet 2 – Peacocks, thrones, fruit bowls and roses become golden wilds (25 coins).
Choose wisely Wombat Fans…
Gamble button
Finally, if you’re really feeling lucky, you also have the option to gamble your wins after each successful spin. Simply guess the correct colour and you’ll get the chance to double your coffers on the turn of a card. If you feel like taking a risk then you can also try to pick the right suit to quadruple your win. But beware you’ll lose it all if you guess wrong…
Mobile Miss Midas Slot
No prizes for guessing what sort of phone our bikini-clad heroine has? Yup, it’s a gold iPhone of course. She actually bought an old Nokia 3310 on eBay, but then as soon as Miss Midas picked it up……well, you know how it goes.
Anyway, the whole point of this little aside was to let you know that you can play the Miss Midas slot on your mobile or your tablet. And on your desktop. And on your fridge. (You can’t play it on your fridge).
Conclusion
Not a bad little slot this one. The Midas Golden Touch feature means there’s more Wilds on the reels than you can shake a jewel-encrusted stick at, and we also like how the Superbet becomes more powerful (and lucrative) during free spins. But, the absence of a multiplier does impact your kitty which is a shame.
