Gold Trophy 2 Introduction
Gold Trophy 2 is a retro-inspired online pokie from Play N' Go for desktops and mobile or tablet devices set on a pristine golf course. As a successful golfer and pokie player you'll probably have only one thing in mind: winning the titular gold trophy for big prizes! But don't be so hasty there - with a wide range of other prizes and scatter play that promises free spins and a multiplier, this is one competition that has some serious replay value.
Welcome to the Club
The style is clean and bright and retro-inspired in places and similar in its appearance to some stand-alone pub pokie machines. This is contrasted by more contemporary flourishes like the scrolling bird across the top of the screen and the smooth motion of the reels, plus some novel winning animations such as coins flying out of the screen.
The golf-course theme looks open and inviting and, perhaps more importantly, does not clash with the game in the foreground or make it difficult to see important information. Sound effects are brief and unobtrusive. Outside of the ambient gold course soundscapes punctuated by occasional swings and applause, only the spins are accompanied by music and loud effects.
The lack of a soundtrack may also make a refreshing change for some, as there are already a great number of free pokies and online games that feature a single looping piece of music as the soundtrack. As with a number of online pokies, Gold Trophy 2 comes with auto-play as a feature which can be used to play the game for you. This feature is easily controlled with parameters for total winnings, losses and number of spins among others.
Eyes on the Prize
Gold Trophy 2 features five reels and twenty different line combinations, which, combined with its wide range of prizes awarded for two, three, four and five reel matches, means that there are a lot of ways to win. Chances are you will probably be aiming for the Gold Trophy wild symbol, which offers a maximum prize of 5000 coins when you find five in any configuration and doubles that current win.
The Gold Trophy can also be used to substitute for any other symbol in a winning line except the scatter symbol. The scatter symbol in this game is the key to unlocking some massive prizes. Finding three or more triggers the bonus round, where you start off with 15 free spins, but that can increase to a maximum of 60 with consecutive scatter wins.
Additionally, any bonus round wins will have a 3x multiplier added on, allowing you to accumulate some truly wild winnings from just a single regular bet Of the regular symbols, the highest-value types are the hole-in-one/flag and golden jacket symbols, which both offer maximum prizes of 750 coins each, followed by the golf caddy symbol which is worth 500.
Do not despair if you don't hit the jackpot straight away, as with this many winning opportunities, even the smaller prizes can soon add up!
