The Hand of Midas

The Hand of Midas Review

Pragmatic Play took an unfortunate fate of King Midas and turned it into a very fortunate slot where anything touched by his hand turns into riches. Wilds turn sticky and multipliers increase without resetting in between spins to bring you a max reward of 5,000x your bet. Themed on Greek mythology, The Hand of Midas is a 5×3 reel slot where you’ll come across the king himself, his daughter turned golden statue and Dionysus depicted as the highest paying symbols. The story ends well for Midas, but how will this game work out for you?

The Hand of Midas Bonus Features

Loosely based on a tragic legend, the game’s main bonus features are directly related to the famous King Midas. Scatters represent his cursed hand that turns everything to gold while the multiplier counter is also held in his extended palm. Just like the king’s golden touch, the free spins round here takes on a life of its own, turning any wilds sticky while boosting your multipliers, all at the same time.

Wilds

Wilds, appearing on reels 2, 3 and 4 aren’t just elaborate from the outside. Alongside their regular duties of substituting for all symbols but scatters, they also carry a random multiplier of up to 3x which gets added to your total wins.

Scatters

Emerging on all reels in the base game only and looking rather freaky, the golden hand of Midas performs the usual scatter action which is to activate the free spins bonus round.

Free Spins

You’ll need 3 or more scatters to activate this round. Each of the triggering scatters will then unleash 3 mini reels. The mini reels containing 1, 2 or 3 free spins will spin, and it’s purely down to your luck on how many you’ll receive from the total of 45 possible free spins.

On your right side, there’s another creepy Midas hand holding a multiplier counter. You’ll start with a 1x multiplier, and every time a wild logo lands, it will increase the starting multiplier by 1x, 2x or 3x. Plus, the wilds stay sticky throughout the round.

Also, this bonus game comes preset with a minimum win guaranteed. This means you’ll have a 10x, 20x and 30x your bet guaranteed win whenever you trigger the round with 3, 4 or 5 scatters respectively.

The Hand of Midas Jackpot

There is no jackpot feature included in the game, but the 5,000x your bet max prize still feels like a good deal. To win the top prize, collect the lucrative multipliers during the base game or the bonus round.

RTP and Volatility

Given its max potential and the volatility set to the max high, The Hand of Midas is a challenging slot. The wins will not be as frequent, but they’ll be pretty rewarding when they hit. At 96.54%, the RTP rate is also generous.
