Spinning on reels as the highest paying symbol is the golden crown, delivering 8x the bet for 5 of a kind. Gold bullion, a bell and golden dices brings medium payouts, while royals A, K, Q and J are at the bottom of the paytable.
When it comes to special symbols, the slot features a Wild symbol able to appear on reels 2, 3 and 4, as well as 5 Scatters - S, U, R, G and E. Hitting all 5 Scatters and forming the word SURGE activates the free spins round.
The round starts with 4 free spins. However, before it begins, each triggering Scatter reveals either +1 free spin or +1x multiplier that adds to the total amount of free spins awarded and the win multiplier. During this feature, special reels are in play.
In the base game, a multiplier of 1x is present. Landing 4 Scatters on different reels at the same time increases the multiplier value by 0.5 times. When the free spins feature is triggered, this multiplier is applied in all of the free spins wins.
In addition, the game offers a progressive Money Award feature with different rewards:
- Minor Money Award - Starting value from 10x to 100x the bet, located above reel 1
- Mega Money Award - Starting value from 200x to 1,000x the bet, located above reel 2
- Ultra Money Award - fixed value of 5,000x the bet, located above reel 3
- Major Money Award - Starting value from 50x to 250x the bet, located above reel 4
- Mini Money Award - Starting value from 5x to 75x the bet, located above reel 5
To make things even better, the Lightning symbol is there to sweeten the deal. It can appear on any reel except the third one and it increases the value of the money award on the respective reel for 0.5x total bet each time it lands.
Also, the appearance of this symbol on reels can randomly trigger the Bonus Wheel Money Award feature. When activated, the wheel spins and stops on one of the money awards. After the win is paid, its progress is set back to its starting value.
Roshtein’s Take
Pragmatic Play loves to add fixed jackpots in its slots, like in Ride the Lightning slot, so it is quite refreshing to see a progressive money award feature instead. Add to that a bonus wheel and free spins feature with a multiplier and this game looks better and better. A Bonus Buy will be a much-appreciated option as the base game can get a bit dull, but all in all Cash Surge slot certainly seems to have a lot of potential.
