Dynamite Riches Review
Dynamite Riches is a 5-reel, 20 payline cult classic developed by the extremely talented team at Red Tiger Gaming. This wild-west themed slot revolves around the iconic gold rush era, with players sent deep underground with their pickaxes, lamps and dynamite in search of gold.
This classic slot boasts a myriad of bonus features that can be triggered upon collecting enough dynamite wilds, these include random wilds, multipliers, mega wilds and gold spins.
Design
In terms of design, Dynamite Riches is a pretty good effort from Red Tiger Gaming. The reels are set deep underground in a gold-ladened mineshaft. As you would expect the reels are covered in symbols related to mining.
High-paying symbols include a lamp, a spade, a headlamp, a sack of gold and an old miner. Low paying symbols are purple, blue, red and green gems.
In terms of sound, there's not much to go by when the game is idle, there are some atmospheric sounds that replicate a working mine whilst a slow banjo tune plays. It's when the reels are being spun that the game ramps it up a notch.... A fast-paced banjo tune is strummed and bells toll when bonus symbols fall onto the reels.
Gameplay
Whenever players land dynamite wilds on the reels they light a portion of a fuse that slowly burns away, when it gets to the end of the fuse dynamite will explode unlocking one of the padlocks above the fuse, kicking off a bonus feature.
The rest of the game is laid out as you would expect from a Red Tiger Gaming slot. Players can change the stake (anywhere between 0.20 and 40.00) and set autospins (up to a maximum of 100) by pressing buttons on the left-hand side of the screen and spin the reels using the large yellow button on the right-hand side of the screen.
Win Potential
We'll be completely honest, Dynamite Riches isn't the most generous slot going... Not only is it massively volatile, but it has a below-average RTP of 94.76% and only offers players the opportunity to win a maximum of 5,000x their stake. It isn't exactly terrible, but it's certainly nothing to write home about, especially when there are games out there that can offer ten times (or more) than that nowadays.
Our Verdict
Overall we're a fan of this Dynamite Riches, it offers some classic gameplay with innovative bonus features that are genuinely captivating and fun to play. Unlocking each and every padlock as you spin the reels is incredibly rewarding, despite the pretty average win potential, we do rate this slot.
