Midas Golden Touch 3 Slot Review

Midas Golden Touch 3 - Slot Overview

When I first loaded Midas Golden Touch 3, it felt like Thunderkick had tried to smarten up the old palace rather than knock it down and rebuild it. The visuals lean more towards realism than the earlier games, with marble pillars, gold trim and more lifelike statues instead of the slightly cartoon look. The soundtrack still soars when the wins land, which helps carry what can be a very swingy experience.

The slot keeps the familiar 5x3 setup with 15 fixed paylines, so anyone who played the earlier Midas titles will feel at home. It is a high volatility online slot with a stated RTP of 94% and stakes from 0.10 up to 100 per spin. On paper, you can hit up to 20,000x your bet, but the base game can drag as it often feels like you are waiting for features to kick in.

Symbols in Midas Golden Touch 3

The paytable in Midas Golden Touch 3 sticks closely to the series template. Low-paying symbols are the 9 to A card ranks, which return between 5x and 7.5x your bet for a full line of five. Premium symbols are the treasure chest, chalice, crown and King Midas himself, paying from 15x up to 75x for five of a kind. The wild symbol shares the same payout as the King and substitutes for all regular symbols, while scatters are there to trigger the bonus.

Midas Golden Touch 3 Slot Features

Feature-wise, Midas Golden Touch 3 mixes familiar mechanics with a few extra knobs to turn. The core package consists of line wins enhanced by wild multipliers, the random Gift of Midas feature in the base game, and a free spins bonus with an Epic Wild that can climb to serious multiplier levels. On top of that, there is the now-standard Feature Buy and a Bet+ menu that lets you pay more to increase feature frequency.

In practice, the game tends to be quite binary. Regular spins can feel flat, then suddenly a Gift of Midas trigger or a wild-stacked line wakes everything up. The real action, though, sits in the bonus game where Sticky Respins and that Epic Wild multiplier can work together. When the features sync up, the slot shows why it carries such a chunky top win, but getting there takes patience and a decent bankroll.

Wild Symbol in Midas Golden Touch 3

The wild symbol in Midas Golden Touch 3 does more than just plug gaps. Any payline that includes at least one wild gets a line multiplier based on how many wilds sit in that line. One wild doubles the line win, two wilds give 4x, three wilds mean 8x, four wilds hit 16x, and a full line of five wilds rockets the multiplier to 32x. Because the wild pays like King Midas, that top line can be hefty on its own.

From a player’s point of view, these wild multipliers are where a lot of the slot’s punch is supposed to come from. In the base game I often found lines with a single wild felt decent, but you are really hoping to chain two or more together for meaningful hits. They feel more relevant in the bonus, as the Epic Wild can help build multi-line wins that all receive multiplier treatment, although even then the game can still throw plenty of dead spins.

Gift of Midas Feature in Midas Golden Touch 3

Gift of Midas is the random base game feature that stops everything feeling completely barren. When it triggers, the slot drops between one and nine wilds or between one and three scatters onto random positions on the reels. It can turn a losing spin into a strong win or drop in the last scatters needed for the bonus. This feature never appears during free spins, so it is strictly a base game helper.

When I was playing, sessions often felt shaped around Gift of Midas. If it stayed quiet, the balance ebbed away on small or non-existent hits, but when it turned up with a cluster of wilds the whole grid could light up. The scatter additions are handy too, especially on higher Bet+ modes where you are effectively paying extra in the hope that Gift of Midas or the bonus lands sooner rather than later.

Free Spins and Feature Buy in Midas Golden Touch 3

Triggering the bonus in Midas Golden Touch 3 needs three or more scatters, which awards five free spins. That sounds stingy, but an Epic Wild is active and moves around, replacing all regular symbols except scatters. Its starting multiplier depends on how many scatters triggered the round, beginning at 2x for three scatters, 5x for four and 10x for five. Landing scatters in the bonus upgrades this Epic Wild multiplier through a meter and can award extra spins.

Every winning spin in the feature activates the Sticky Respin mechanic. All symbols that are part of the win lock in place while the rest respin, and this continues for as long as new winning symbols join the cluster of locked icons. Each time the Epic Wild helps form a win, its multiplier value steps up, and you can get extra free spins from new scatters. On a good run, the multiplier climbs while the respins stretch out a single free spin into a long sequence.

If you are not in the mood to grind, Thunderkick lets you buy the bonus. Paying 100x, 150x or 250x your bet guarantees 3, 4 or 5 scatters and therefore different starting Epic Wild multipliers. The Bet+ panel also lets you raise your stake by 1.5x or 3x to increase the chance of triggering the bonus naturally, or pay 30x per spin to have Gift of Midas active every spin. From my experience, these options make sense only if you are comfortable with high variance and sharp swings.

Midas Golden Touch 3 - Slot Verdict

Having played all the Midas slots, I see Midas Golden Touch 3 as a polished yet familiar outing rather than a big step forward. The visuals and sound are nicely upgraded, and the feature set has some neat touches with the Epic Wild meter and extra Bet+ options, but the base game can still feel like a slog. For me, it is a game for players who enjoy high-volatility grinding and chasing those rare, wild-fuelled multiplier bursts rather than steady, regular returns.
