Nugget Slot Review

I don’t know if I’ve ever told the story of the poo nugget💩.

Back when I was a desk jockey, I worked in an office with co-ed toilets🚻.

One day, I walked into the first stall and almost stepped on what I thought was a cockroach. But on closer inspection, I literally bent down to figure out what this brown thing was😲.

I realized it was a perfectly formed Hershey's Kiss-shaped turd🤢.

I backed out of the toilet and went back to my desk, stunned. I didn’t want to believe that one of the people I worked with (who I mostly liked) was a floor pooper.

I went to HR and informed them what I had discovered, but minutes later another employee walked up to us and told us he had just had to clean human crap off his shoe. He had stepped right into the doodoo🤣.

I died laughing💀. And my kids always ask me to retell the story whenever they bring new friends home.

Hopefully you get as much joy out Nuggest slot from AvatarUX as my kids do out of the poop nugget story.

Gameplay

I’m not sure why the developer chose to design the symbols the way they did.

They’re supposed to look like old-timey photos taken during the American gold rush era, but the fuzzy blur really messed with my eyes while playing. And it’s even worse on my phone.

The fluctuating height of the reels and randomly triggering features during Free Spins also made it hard to keep track of everything going on.

And if that weren’t bad enough, the game is very sluggish. Maybe it's just me, but I don’t want to have to wait a beat after every spin is complete to press the spin button again, even with fast mode turned on.

And, one more thing, and I’m sorry to be the bearer of bad news, you can unfortunately not play this slot with Bitcoin.

Okay, this isn’t sounding very positive, but hopefully after you read this review before firing up Nugget slot, you’ll catch on quicker than I did and not be annoyed by all that I just mentioned.

The first thing to know is that this game has up to 531,441 ways instead of traditional paylines. So, you need to land matching symbols anywhere on adjacent reels, starting from the leftmost reel to the right.

Winning symbols disappear from the reels, allowing new symbols to drop in from above, potentially creating new winning ways (or move in from the left in the case of the Zap Reel).

You play on 6 reels with 4 rows in the base game. There is also a horizontal reel above the reels, called the Zap Reel. It has the same symbols as ordinary reels and can help contribute to wins.

The paytable has a Gunslinger symbol, which has a super high value. The high symbols are a prospector, a lady, and a mountain man. Medium symbols are a pick, two glasses of whisky (which I really need), and a cowboy hat.

There is also a special symbol called the Payday symbol, which is the face of a very happy cowboy.

Whenever this symbol lands, it activates one of the Wild West Rewards that are displayed off to the side of the reels. Check out the details for these in the features section below.

You can bet as little as $0.20 and as much as $10 per spin. If you’re betting at the top of the range and manage to hit the game’s 25,000x high multiplier, you’ll win the game’s biggest prize of $250,000.

Lastly, the average RTPRTP stands for “Return to Player.” The RTP describes the total bet amount that a game returns to players over millions of spins, and that figure is represented by a percentage. Table games, such as Roulette, typically have higher RTPs than many slots.

RTP needs to be considered in conjunction with a game’s volatility rate. is 96%, and the volatility is high.

Features

WILD WEST REWARDS

Whenever a Payday symbol lands anywhere on the reels, it triggers one of the following:

  • HOTX Gunslinger: When active, Gunslinger symbols gain a multiplier equal to the number of Gunslinger symbols on the reels. Plus, any Gunslinger symbol on the Zap Reel adds its own unique 5x, 10x, or 15x multiplier to their total multiplier value.
  • Mystery Symbols: This reward places golden nuggets over a random number of symbols on the reels and, at the end of the spin, transforms them into the same symbol.
  • Low Pay Removal: This reward does what it says and removes all low-paying symbols from the reels, allowing new higher-value symbols to drop in and fill all the gaps.

In the base game, the Wild West Reward comes with 1 to 4 lives, which count down for each subsequent spin. During Free Spins, the lives are bumped up to be between 1 and 5.

GOLD RUSH FEATURE

Once per Free Spins, this feature can trigger randomly at the start of any spin, which will award additional Free Spins and increase the number of Gunslinger and Payday symbols.

If the HOTX Gunslinger reward is already active, the multiplier is doubled per Gunslinger symbol on the reels.

PROSPECTOR WHEELS

Before Free Spins start, you’re presented with 2 Prospector Wheels to choose from: the Collect Wheel or the Gamble Wheel.

The Collect Wheel spins and randomly awards a number of Free Spins and starting ways.

The Gamble Wheel offers you a chance to upgrade your Free Spins to a higher number of Free Spins and more starting ways, but also the possibility of losing the Free Spins round completely.

If you spin the Gamble Wheel and land on the golden slice, you’ll be upgraded to the highest Free Spins game.

FREE SPINS

To trigger Free Spins in the base game, you need to land 3 Free Spins Bonus symbols to be awarded up to 9 Free Spins on the Prospector Reel.

During Free Spins, whenever you unlock a Wild West Reward, you’re also awarded additional Free Spins equal to the number of lives the reward has. You can unlock more than one reward at once.

If the same reward gets unlocked while it's active, it's granted additional lives.

Performance

Even after hundreds of spins, Nugget slot continued to play flawlessly (despite being slow). It remained completely unfazed when I switched devices and browsers.

Maximum Win

The stats are pretty impressive; there is a 25,000x top multiplier, which can award $250,000. And you can bet from $0.20 to $10.

Conclusion

You might be mistaken in thinking I don’t like Nugget slot. Truthfully, I enjoyed myself.

The action comes thick and fast in this game thanks to the Wild West Rewards, which can last up to 4 spins in the base game and 5 spins during Free Spins.

All you need to trigger one is to land the Payday symbol anywhere on the reels.

Free Spins is, as always, the aim of the game. You can trigger them naturally in the base game by landing the 3 Bonus symbols, or you can use the Buy Bonus feature.

There are 5 Buy Bonus options available, and the lower-tier Free Spins are rather affordable.

There are also Ante BetAn Ante Bet is an option that costs a percentage of your bet but increases your chances of landing triggering symbols that initiate a feature. options available to double, triple, or quadruple your chances of triggering Free Spins naturally. Or you can ensure Wild West Rewards on every spin.

If I had to say who this game is aimed at, I would expect it’s more experienced players.

Players who won’t struggle to follow the action and what is happening on the screen when Wild West Rewards or Gold Rush spins randomly fire off.
