How to Play

The playing field has 5 reels in 5 rows. You can choose the number of TNT mines in advance, and the more mines you pass, the faster the cost of gold nuggets will increase. The goal of the game is to uncover as many gold nuggets as possible while avoiding the TNT mines that explode your wins, and you can cash them out at any time.

Before you start playing, you need to choose a bet size from 1 to 300 coins and the desired number of TNT mines: 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, or 15 to get 24, 23, 20, 15, 12, 8 or 5 picks respectively.

To start this exciting mining journey all you need is:

  • Open this new slot at your chosen casino
  • Read the rules
  • Choose a bet: from C$1 to C$300
  • Select TNT mines: from 1 to 15
  • Click on the positions of the playing field and have fun!

Theme

8.2 

All actions take place in a deep, damp mine lit in blue. Wooden cranes are visible in the distance and in the middle of the screen is a large playing field made of dark wood. In front of the grid, there are huge chunks of gold glittering here and there and to the left of the reels, you will see an old gold digger with glasses, a large white beard, and a torn cap. This jovial man peeks out from behind wooden sticks that display bet ranges and ranges of TNT mines. A calm positive melody plays in the background and from time to time you can hear the dripping of water and the sound of a pickaxe hitting a stone.

As you already understood, there is no paytable as such. All you will see on the reels are earth squares and you have to click on them to reveal gold nuggets with random values. You can also reveal TNT and lose this round.

You need to click on the position of the playing field to reveal gold nuggets. The more mines you pass, the faster the value of gold nuggets will increase! If you use each of your picks to reveal only nuggets you will receive a prize, but if you reveal TNT at least 1 time then you lose the round.

Overall Rating

7.6
Gold Digger: Mines is a pretty simple slot in a little-known Mine Games niche, inspired by the classic Minesweeper. We prefer regular slots as this "pick and click" concept gets boring after a few rounds. Using 2 TNT Mines, which activates 23 picks, is probably the best option if you want to maximize your potential max win, although 288x is hardly enough to give any player a gold rush. We guess the idea of this game is to make the players feel excited as they pick one by one. This slot may entertain for a while, but once the novelty wears off, most players will move on to more interesting things.

Games about mining and digging have been very popular lately. Well, that’s an inner explorer and a fan of explosions talks.
This one is a carbon copy of a famous Miner game. If there was an Olympics for office workers, Miner should be the main discipline, lol. It’s great to see a gambling version of an oldie.
The gameplay is very much the same as in classic miner – you have to avoid mines. U can stop the play anytime to collect current wins. The more positions u unblock, the bigger the win.

Gold Digger is a slot with unusual mechanics. It is similar to that in the Aviator slot. You just dig for the gold nuggets and each time your payout increases and the risk to uncover TNT and explode all your wins increases as well. The game is encouraging and you are able to get very regular payouts. You could choose the number of TNT in the field. The best working choice for me was 10 TNT. This is a kind of balance between payouts size and chance to get it actually.
