Paydirt is the second slot game released by Real Time Gaming (RTG) this month. The other one was Aztec’s Millions. Paydirt is based on the theme of gold mining, which is popular amongst slots players. After all playing slots is somewhat like mining for gold. And like mining for gold Paydirt offers some excellent money making opportunities.

Paydirt has 5 reels and 25 paylines. The coin denomination varies from $0.01 to $5.00. The player can bet only 1 coin per line giving the slot a max bet of $125 per spin. The reels are set in a scene depicting the Gold Rush of 1849. The symbols on the reels include a gold mine, a gold trolley, dynamite, lanterns, pick axes, a gold miner, a bandit and a dog with a gold nugget in his mouth. The Paydirt symbol is the scatter and the Gold Nugget symbol is the wild. If the wild symbol appears on reels 2 and 4 in a winning combination the payouts are tripled. The slot has excellent animation and sound effects. The gold nugget symbol spins and glitters when it completes a winning combination.

5 gold mine symbols hit the fixed jackpot of 10,000 coins, which at max bet gives $50,000. Paydirt also has a progressive jackpot, which starts at a very modest level of $1,000. This is in stark contrast to Aztec’s millions that starts at $1 million. Another basic difference between the two RTG slots is that the progressive jackpot of Paydirt is hit randomly whereas that of Aztec’s Millions is hit by lining up identical symbols on all five reels.

Paydirt provides other winning opportunities. The pick a feature bonus game is activated when 3 or more Paydirt symbols appear on the reels. The Paydirt sign picked by the player directs him to one of the bonus games. The Gold Fever bonus game awards 5 free spins. The beauty of these spins is that reel 3 will always have the wild symbol. The free spins can be retriggered. The Strike it Lucky bonus game is very interesting. Players get to select a number of gold mines that reveal bonus symbols. The players are then awarded 10 free spins. In these spins the revealed bonus symbols are replaced with the wild symbol. Again the free spins can be retriggered. In the Gold Rush bonus game players are awarded 12 free spins in which grouped gold nuggets can appear on any reel. As usual the free spins can be retriggered.

Paydirt can be played at all RTG online casinos. CasinoAdvisor recommends Rushmore Casino, Cherry Red, and Slots Oasis. Find links to these top rated RTG powered online casinos here.
