[COMPETITION & TOURNAMENT] Black Gold 2™ Megaways™ (Stakelogic)

167x

It's an OK megaways game with a bit more going on than some. The random features keep it a bit more interesting and I like the gold bonus, it's a decent version of the money train style bonus.

Not sure on this game or whether you even really need the super button. Seemed to pay better without the button on. One day I'll get super lucky on one of these

Lots going on and will try again with the Super Stake at some point but randoms appear often without it, even if paying little when showing up. I Didn't trigger either feature, they barely teased and base game was quite harsh but can see how it can pay massive in the base.

I like that both bonus symbols appear on the reels and in the scrolling reels, and I like that it teases on a spin but strange it doesn't 'slow down tease' on a cascade. Will play again soon as want to see the bonus, seems decent that it gives extra spins and multiplier for extra scatters.

Thanks for the promo, here is my entry 535x (214e on a 0,4eur take). Just in case, below also the history record. Heads up @Skylined87, it could have been possible to make the 20eur bonus buy with super stake on, showing a payout with 0,4eur stake.

Feedback and thoughts of the game, I had some troubles in getting anything out of it during the first few 50-100x deposits. First deposit delivered free spins, picked mystery and was surprised to start with 12 spins with a 10x multiplier, sweet. All deadspins, no features (deadspin with the obvious last destruction), decided that the third deposit would be the final one for this game ever.

Third deposit hit the free spins, via mystery started with 12 spins 5x multi that went up somewhere 28x multiplier delivering the big win.

After the hit returned to the game to check it out more with random spins on various stakes. Shortly, for me it could have been one of the best megaways-slots ever made, yet it suffers from some handicaps towards the player and playing experience. Biggest problem after playing it extensively is that the basegame is quite worthless, regardless of hitting a few 50x wins via max megaways 117649.

Plusses:

The features are a great addition, few of which deliver the free spins or the gold feature instantly.

Bonus buys work well for quick action junkies.

The returns on the basegame are generally low, showing a level of high volatility, which I guess is okay for many players.

Minuses:

Sounds are quite buggy (browsers, Firefox, Chrome), visuals occasionally too show wrong symbols.

Both the super stake and picking spins and multipliers are not my cup of tea.

Super stake: The helpfile in Finnish only shows that (super stake enables really high payouts). For me as a player, I have no idea what that means. The provider should thoroughly elaborate why the customer is paying twice the stake, for which level of volatility, for which hit frequency and for what maximum payout. Biggest question is: can the max win or 10kx wins be won without the super stake. My conclusion is that the super stake increases the volatility too much due to insignificant payouts in basegame without features that deliver mostly the "Mystery"-option. Therefore, I would not play it with the super stake.

Picking spins and multipliers: This option is highly misleading due to the significance of the features triggered, best average returns obviously come with the 12 spins 1x multiplier that is my preference. If most of the 10x multiplier spins deliver no features, there really is no point to chase it. Therefore, the element of predetermined amount of features leaves the player in too big of a disadvantage.

For Black gold 3, I would hope it would be less buggy and tested comprehensively. Furthermore, I would hope to see one without super stake-option and picking, instead the amount of scatters would determine the potential (more spins=more potential). Black gold 3 could have a combination-feature: w.g. with scatters on screen the mystery would reveal more scatters and/or multipliers.

Def not my game. The game mechanics are B-grade, but that’s Stakelogic standard I fear. Lots of errors overall. No innovative features. Displaying a random feature on a secondary reel doesn’t add much extra. The ripped Gold bag feature is absolute garbage aswell. If ya steal a feature atleast try to add something. 2/10
