Ecuador Gold Free Play: Try Ecuador Gold Pokie in Demo Mode

Ecuador Gold graphics

Set within the Temple of Luck, this game has a gold and dark green colour theme, with sandy reels featuring a range of Incan symbols. Low scoring symbols include a sun, cross and star, whilst the mid-scorers include a snake, leopard, bird and alligator. The highest scoring symbols include three masked totem faces and Kane the explorer. In this game, you are joined by your host Kane, an intrepid modern-day explorer hoping to find both historical artefacts and some buried loot. The pan pipes and drum music in the background is inspired by traditional Central American music and sets a tranquil atmosphere.

How to play Ecuador Gold

Players make a wager by clicking on the coin icon to the lower left of the screen. This will open a pop-up menu where you can choose both a wager and if you want to, a betting strategy (see below). Wagers are a ‘Total Bet’, ranging from $0.20 to $100. There are four betting strategies available that players can select from- or you can choose to play without a betting strategy. These strategies automatically adjust your wager as a result of previous wins or losses. The four betting strategy options are as follows:

Jumper

In the Jumper strategy, your wager is increased by one level after every win, up to four times. It resets to your original wager after a loss.

Optimizer

In the Optimizer strategy, players choose between 1%, 2%, 5% or 10%. The bet adapts with each spin in order to wager with your chosen percentage of the total in your pot. High rollers can opt for 10% whilst low rollers can go for 1%.

Leveller

In the Leveller strategy, your bet automatically increases by two steps after five consecutive losses. It resets to your original wager after a win.

Booster

Booster raises your bet by one level after every loss, up to four levels. Again, this resets after a win.

Ecuador Gold payout ratio

This game has a sturdy payout ratio, or RTP, of 96.1%.

Ecuador Gold volatility

This game is a rarely seen high volatility game. A high variance game is ideal for high rollers (risk takers). Payouts might not come that often, but the chances of a really high payout is greater.

How to win at Ecuador Gold

Wins in this game come with three or more matching symbols appearing on a payline. The higher scoring the symbol, the bigger the win. The many bonus features increase the likelihood of wins, and these include the Avalanche, Ghosting Wilds and Big Symbols. However, like all Pokie games, each spin is powered by an RNG (Random Number Generator) that ensures the randomness of the outcome. There is nothing a player can do to hack or manipulate this outcome to their own advantage. This ensures fair play and allows pokie games to continue to be as exciting as they are.

Ecuador Gold bonus features

Look out for the Ghosting Wild. This compass symbol moves around upon landing, changing its direction as it goes according to what the compass says and leaving a trail of wild symbols in its wake. When it has finished moving around the reels, the total win will be calculated. The Avalanche feature triggers after every line win. Winning symbols explode and are replaced with new ones, and one new row is added on, increasing the ways to win in the base game to 15,625. Any wins as a result of these new rows and symbols are added to the win pot for that spin. This will continue until there are no more winning lines. For the next spin, the reels will return to 4,096 ways to win with four rows. A Big Symbol which takes up the space of either 4 symbols (2x2), 9 symbols (3x3) or even 16 symbols (4x4) can drop at any time. These Super, Mega and Epic symbols can clear other symbols on the way down.

The highest paying symbol is Kane the explorer, who pays out 300x your wager when he appears five times in a payline.

Free spins on Ecuador Gold pokies

Free spins, or free drops as they are named in this pokie, are triggered by three or more bonus symbols appearing anywhere on the reels. 3 bonus symbols = 10 free drops, 4 bonus symbols = 10 free drops, 5 bonus symbols = 10 free drops, and 6 bonus symbols = 25 free drops. During the Free Drops feature, the Avalanche feature is still in play, but it’s better and bigger than in the base game. Not just one, but up to four additional rows can be added (making a total of 8), bringing the maximum Ways to Win to an absolutely incredible 262,144. Unlike the base game, each new row stays in place for the following free drops, allowing it to rise all the way to four by the end of the free spins feature. During free drops, any wild that lands will stay in place for the remainder of the feature. The Free Drops feature can be re-triggered.
