This game is no longer available at Wombat Casino. Sorry about that chaps! Why not have a spin on ELK Studios’ Zulu Gold slot instead?

Voodoo Gold is another slot from ELK Studios, one of our favourite developers, with top games such as Taco Brothers, Hong Kong Tower and Dropz slot .

This ELK Studio’s game comes with up to 4096 Ways to Win. If you’re used to playing 9 pay-line games like Thunderstruck 2 slot this can feel a bit daunting, but just get stuck in and you’ll soon pick up the key differences.

But that’s not all. Thanks to ELK Studios’ expanding game mechanic that pushes the play onto 8 reels– there’s also the possibility to boosting the Ways to Win up to 262,144 .

But enough of the chat. Let’s play, before this Wombat loses his marbles with anticipation.

Look and Feel

Voodoo Gold slot is set deep in the green mangrove swamps of Louisiana, so this game is jam packed with man-eating crocs, eerie black magic and a light sprinkling of Deep South Bluegrass guitar.

In short, all of the paraphernalia you might see in the Dio Killing the Dragon slot only with less heavy metal.

Some bloke called Kane (you’ll see him on the reels with a bandana round his head) has entered this scary-ass place in search of secret riches. But it’s no big deal as apparently, he’s a daring treasure hunter – though we reckon he looks more lot like Big Pete, the barman from the Outback pub.

Mangrove trees with skulls embedded on them flank the reels, and a creepy wooden house sits behind the game play. The whole slot is shrouded in a green mist that is guaranteed to get your fur standing on end.

As always from an ELK Studios title, the controls are transparent making this slot a cinch to play on mobile.

Hats off again to ELK Studios – this is one good looking game that ups the ante on the creep factor from games like Granny vs Zombies slot and other fright fests.

Voodoo Gold Slot Game Play

Voodoo Gold is a  six reel slot with four rows. Winning combos are made by landing three or more matching symbols across adjacent reels, starting from left to right. But, as we mentioned, the size of the reels can increase and with it, the number of ways to win.

How? Well let us explain. It’s all thanks to the avalanche mechanic that helps to cascade symbols into view from the top on every spin.

Any winning combos that land are paid out before they explode, to make room for new symbols to drop into place from above.

After each avalanche win, an expanding game mechanic becomes active, adding another row to the reels on each win, and increasing the game from 4 rows and 4,096 ways to a mind-blowing 8 rows with a crazy 262,144 ways to win. Land a no-win spin and your expanding days are over.

Got it? Good. Cos it’s a ripper!

Look and Feel

Screenshotvoodoo gold screenshot

Your symbols on the reels in Voodoo Gold slot include a host of nasty voodoo-type artefacts: blue satanic stars, red hearts, green crucifixes, and yellow rams’ skulls.

You’ve also got bottles of poison, a severed chicken claw, a shrunken mummified head, a woman who looks like she loves a bit of voodoo, plus some dodgy dice and a top hat. And of course, our intrepid adventurer Kane.

The Wild in this slot is a voodoo doll and the Bonus icon is a green bomb-type symbol.

Just to make things even more exciting, the symbols will land as 2×2, 3×3 or 4×4 tiles– and any empty spaces that these symbols leave will become Voodoo Wilds.

Which, if you are lucky, could mean some nice runs!

Free Spins and Bonuses

Grab a cuppa Wombat Fans, as you’re going to need to be alert for this bit – there are plenty of extras in the game.

According to the game’s blurb, Voodoo Gold slot has three unique features, the Bomb, the Dual Bomb and the Big Voodoo symbols that generate voodoo wilds. So, let’s take a look at them all…

Bonus Bomb

Bonus symbols can land on any symbol drop, and when they do, all active symbols within a diamond- shaped area around the bonus symbol (except wilds and big voodoo symbols), explode to make way for brand new icons.

The Dual Bomb

This cool feature is triggered when two bonus symbols land on the reels at the same time. Any symbols that are touching the line made between both bonus icons will explode to be replaced by new symbols (except for the wilds and big voodoo symbols).

Big Voodoo Symbols

As mentioned, game icons can land as 1×1, super 2×2, mega 3×3 and epic 4×4 icons – with these epic symbols being made up of 16 (yes, 16) standard 1×1 tiles.

The Free Drops Bonus Game

This is triggered by landing three or more bonus symbols anywhere on the reels. Three bonus symbols trigger six free drops, four bonus symbols nine free drops, five bonus symbols award twelve free drops and if you get lucky enough to scoop six bonus symbols you’ll get fifteen free drops.

That’s more spins than a Tasmanian Devil.

Plus, during the Free Drop round, all non-winning wilds are collected and will become sticky, increasing the potential of seriously epic wins.

I need to have a sit down on my furry bottom to be honest: it’s all too much.

Betting Strategies

As with all ELK Studios slots, players can also set a betting strategy via the game’s Bet Level selector, which is a nice touch… Just click on the coin and + icon to the left of the reels. This feature is not available in all countries.

Jumper

After any win, the bet level will increase by one, up to four levels above the original bet (that means x10). After a losing spin the bet level will reset. So, for example if your original bet is 0.15 per spin, in case of four consecutive wins the bet will go to 0.30, 0.60, 0.90, up to 1.50

Booster

Well, this is the opposite of Jumper. The bet level will increase by x1 after each losing spin, up to four levels. After a winning spin the bet level will reset.

Leveller

The bet level will increase by x2 after five consecutive losing spins. It can happen twice. A winning round will reset to basic level.

Conclusion

This is a great-looking slot and all the extras mean it’s non-stop action. In fact, this Wombat feels quite dizzy!

Voodoo Gold is high variance, and what with the creepy theme too, it’s not one for the faint hearted. But if you’re made of stern stuff and can wait a while for the Free Drops, you could go on some nice runs. We LOVED the expanding reels.

Wombat score: 4.5/5

It’s a great slot but its pretty complex.
