Midas Golden Touch 2 Slot Review

The Midas Golden Touch 2 Slot Game

Midas Golden Touch 2 is Thunderkick's sequel to the popular original, and it sticks closely to the same mythology theme. You are back in King Midas's palace, with glossy marble pillars, gold everywhere and a dramatic soundtrack driving the spins. The layout stays classic, with 5 reels, 3 rows and 15 fixed paylines running left to right on every spin.

Stake sizes in Midas Golden Touch 2 range from 10p up to £100 a spin, so it suits low and mid stakes but can handle the odd bigger punt. The default RTP is 94.27% with medium volatility and a hit rate around 19%. On paper that looks a bit tight, but the headline 15,000x max win and packed bonus round still pull me in.

Symbols and Payouts in Midas Golden Touch 2

Symbols and payouts in Midas Golden Touch 2 follow the same structure as the first game. Line wins land when three or more matching symbols hit from the leftmost reel across one of the 15 paylines. The low pays are 9, 10, J, Q, K and A, paying up to between 5x and 7.5x the bet for a full five-of-a-kind.

The premium symbols in Midas Golden Touch 2 are a treasure chest, silver goblet, golden crown and King Midas himself. Hitting five chests pays 15x, goblets pay 20x, crowns pay 25x and a line of Midas pays a chunky 75x your stake. Visually they look sharper than before, with richer colours and a bit more depth, which helps wins feel that bit more satisfying.

The wild symbol in Midas Golden Touch 2 is the pair of golden hands, which subs for everything except the palace door scatter. A line of wilds pays the same as Midas and wilds also come with built-in multipliers when they form part of a win. Scatters do not pay much on their own, but three or more are your ticket into the feature, so they matter a lot.

Midas Golden Touch 2 Slot Bonus Features

Midas Golden Touch 2 slot bonus features lean heavily on the multiplier wilds that made the first game so popular. Any payline containing wilds gets multiplied, with one wild giving 2x, two giving 4x, then 8x, 16x and up to 32x if you land five. On top of that, the random Gift of Midas feature can drop 1 to 9 extra wilds or 1 to 3 scatters in the base game.

The free spins bonus in Midas Golden Touch 2 is where the slot really comes alive for me. Three, four or five scatters award 8, 10 or 12 spins with Sticky Respins after every win, so symbols that form a line lock while the rest reroll. An Epic Wild lands before each free spin with a 2x multiplier that can climb in stages up to 32x, while retriggers hand out extra spins each time the meter fills with three scatters.

How to Win at Midas Golden Touch 2 Slot

Winning on Midas Golden Touch 2 comes down to lining up those multipliers in the right spots. I treat the base game as set-up, aiming to trigger free spins where Sticky Respins and the Epic Wild can snowball simple lines into serious hits. You can raise the chance with the Bet+ options or even buy the feature for 100x your stake outside the UK, but I only touch those once my balance feels comfortable.

Midas Golden Touch 2 Slot RTP & Volatility

Midas Golden Touch 2 slot RTP and volatility will be a sticking point for some players. The default RTP is 94.27%, which sits well below the 96% figure I usually look for, although medium volatility keeps the ride manageable. Bet+ means staking 1.5x or 3x for about double or fivefold bonus odds. Using Bonus Buy or Bet+ nudges the theoretical return higher, up towards about 94.55% to 94.75%, but long sessions still feel tougher than on the original Midas games.

The Final Thoughts on Midas Golden Touch 2

The final thoughts on Midas Golden Touch 2 from my side are mixed but mostly positive. Visually it is a clear step up, with the palace now feeling more like a proper throne room dripping in gold. Gameplay-wise Thunderkick has kept the core intact, so if you enjoyed hunting Wild Multipliers and Sticky Respins before, this sequel will scratch that same itch with a bit more polish.

Where Midas Golden Touch 2 falls short for me is that trimmed RTP, which weighs on longer sessions, and the fact the new Gift of Midas feature does not appear that often. On the flip side the higher 15,000x cap, Epic Wild in the bonus and the option to pay for faster access make it a slot I still circle back to when I fancy structured, multiplier-driven play.
