Gameplay Mechanics

Golden Empire is a slot game that features 6 reels and 5 rows, and has more reels above reels 2-5 that allow up to 32,400 ways to win.

Core Mechanics:

• Variable Symbol Sizes: The reels 2, 3, 4 and 5 symbol are allowed to occupy 1, 2, 3, or 4 symbol spaces each. Payouts are calculated using each symbol as one symbol no matter the size.
• Cascading Reels: With each spin, all winning symbols become erased. The other symbols fall to the floor. Empty spaces are occupied with new symbols falling down. There are other reels above the other reels (reel 2-5) and these reels have blank spaces which are filled by new symbols falling at the right hand side. This is done till there are no more winning combinations available.
• Golden Wild Transformation: A winning combination that contains a Golden Frame Wild Symbol on the reels 2-5 will turn into a Wild symbol and will fall down. The Wild will take the same number of the symbol spaces (1 to 4) as the Golden Frame it became transformed into. The Wild has a number showing the number of times it can fall.
• Wild Persistence System: In case a winning combination contains a Wild symbol the number shown reduces by 1. The Wild is never eliminated unless the number shown is 1 or less (when the figure becomes 0, it is killed on that cascade).

Beginner's Guide:

• Begin with small bets (₱1) to know the gameplay of the cascading system and Golden Wild well
• Note the symbols on the reel 2-5 that can be of bigger sizes (1-4 spaces) and turn into Wilds
• Note the value of Wild symbols, the higher the numbers, the more cascades there will be before they get wiped out
• The winning symbols should be shown in a series on the left side to the right
• Auto-cascading wins will be made until no more winning combinations are made
• 4+ Scatters (trigger) 8 Free Games with an unlimited multiplier accumulation
• Rapidly spin the sample with options of custom stop conditions
• The Buy Bonus option enables a 42 time bet Free Game
• This is appropriate in different playing styles because of medium volatility and 97.06% RTP

Theme & Graphics

Golden Empire is a grandiose blend of the ancient civilization motifs, which incorporates the elements of imperial palace and mystical items of temple treasury. The game makes the player plunge into the world of the luxurious wealth, holy objects and the mythical riches that are supposed to be found.

Visual Setting:

The scene is set by the stunning architectural backgrounds with gold-rich ornaments, and the air of authority, affluence, and enigma is provided by this scenery. The design is symbolic to the idea of the search of ancient temples and imperial courts where the golden treasures were stored centuries ago. The color scheme is very rich in golds, deep reds, jade greens and royal purples that are very luxurious and opulent.

Symbol Design:

The symbols are exquisitely made of high quality:

• Premium Symbols: A face mask that was densely decorated in one of the colors (red, purple, green, blue, yellow), a representation of one of the ancient gods or kings
• Thematic Icons: Ancient civilizations Golden artifacts, carved totems, and mystic emblems
• Card Symbols: Stylized playing cards (10, J, Q, K, A) carved out of stone in the style of the ancient theme
• Variable Sizes: Visual patterns with reels 2-5 can consist of 1x1, 2x2, 3x3, and 4x4 blocks

Special Symbols:

• Golden Wild Symbol: This is a symbol with a golden frame on reels 2-5 which change to numbered Wild card
• Scatter Symbol: Temple icon that is sacred and it appears in all 6 reels to activate the Free Game option

Visual Effects:

The graphics are in high definition and every bit of the elements is detailed. The animations are smooth and involving, and the special effects are exploding with glamour in case of big wins and bonus round. There is something especially severe about the Golden Wild metamorphosis--the symbols are glowing with gold as they turn into Wild cards and their cascade counters. The cascading effect is smooth and pleasant as the symbols fade away and new ones roll in their places. During the landing of larger symbols (2x2, 3x3, 4x4) a spectacular visual effect is generated and it changes the entire grid arrangement.

Audio Experience:

A genuine soundtrack involves the use of traditional instruments and dramatic orchestral sounds and sets the soundtrack as an intense sound experience. There are sound effects such as the contented clicking sounds of spinning reels and the fanfares in the cases of major wins, all attentively aimed on the part of the producers at improving the atmosphere of ancient treasure-hunting.

Golden Empire Features & Bonus Games

Cascading Reels

The Cascading Reels feature is triggered on each spin and goes on until it does not create any more hits.

How It Works:

1. The winning symbols are stripped off after every spin
2. The symbols that are left either on reels 1-6 are cascading to the floor
3. New symbols are falling down on blank spaces
4. There are also reels above reels 2 to 5 with blank spaces that are filled with dropping new symbols on the right to the left
5. The number of symbol spaces occupied by every new symbol is one
6. The process will go on till there are no combinations left to win
7. The winner is decided to award all the consecutive winnings with the base spin

Strategic Benefits:

Cascading system is a system that vastly enhances the chances of winning as it enables a successive payout when a single bet is made. Cascades can form vast winning combinations when used with Golden Wild transformation feature which causes Wilds to continue and assist in the formation of more than one combination until they are destroyed.

Golden Wild Symbol & Wild Transformation

Golden Empire has a characteristic feature known as the Golden Wild Symbol system which can only be found on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5.

Symbol Size Mechanic:

The reels 2, 3, 4, and 5 (including Wild and Scatter symbols) can be taken up by symbols in any spin in a number of 1 to 4 symbol spaces. The payment is counted based on the number of symbols per symbol, and this is based on the number of symbols in a payout; however, larger symbols have more stunning visual appeal and have the ability to occupy more spaces.

Transformation Process:

In case there is a winning combination that contains a Golden Frame Wild Symbol:

1. It becomes a Wild symbol and falls down
2. The Wild uses an equal number of symbol spaces (1 to 4) as the Golden Frame it has evolved out of
3. The Wild shows a figure that depicts the number of times the Wild can cascade
4. The Wild replaces all the symbols except Scatter

Wild Persistence:

In the event of winning combination which contains a Wild:

• The figure on the Wild reduces by 1
• The Wild is not cleared unless the number shown is at least 2 or less
• On the cascade where the counter will be removed, it will be removed when it takes part in a win
• This adds depth to the strategy because Wilds with high values have the ability to be used in multiple consecutive wins

Example:

When a Golden Wild is converted to a Wild with 5, it can be used in a maximum of 5 winning combinations when going through cascades but will be removed. It assists in creating a win 5 times, 4 times, 3 times, 2 times, 1 times, removed.
