Features

  • multiplier wild
  • free spins

A short explanation of the The Hand of Midas features:

  • In The Hand of Midas multipliers raise a win several times; the biggest payouts usually come when they pile up during free spins.
  • Free spins usually start with scatter symbols. They are played without a bet, but the winnings go to the real balance; in volatile games most of the payout happens in this round.
  • A wild replaces other symbols. In this game the wild has special behaviour (sticky, expanding, with a multiplier or random), which makes it worth more than an ordinary wild.

What to expect from the volatility

With high volatility, dry spells are long and most of the winnings come from bonus rounds. It makes sense to play with a budget of 100-200 bets.

Bet by budget

A rough rule for The Hand of Midas: keep each bet near 1/200 of the budget. The table turns that into concrete numbers:

BudgetSuggested betSpins/rounds
20 ₼0.10 ₼200
50 ₼0.20 ₼250
100 ₼0.50 ₼200
200 ₼1 ₼200
500 ₼2 ₼250

Playing The Hand of Midas with a bonus

Because it is a slot, The Hand of Midas normally counts in full towards bonus wagering. When playing with a bonus, watch the maximum bet limit, usually around 5 ₼. Offers with low wagering are compared on the bonuses page. Spin offers sorted by wagering: free spins.

Demo and real money: the difference

In demo mode The Hand of Midas runs on the same maths as the real game: RTP, volatility and features do not change. The difference is that you play with virtual credits and cannot withdraw winnings. The demo shows the pace of the game and how often the bonus comes, but a few hundred spins are not enough to predict a result.

The Hand of Midas on a phone

The Hand of Midas runs on HTML5 and opens in a phone browser without extra software. In portrait mode the interface is simplified and the buttons move to the bottom. The game uses little mobile data, but a stable connection is better for bonus round animations.

Common mistakes

What players often get wrong in The Hand of Midas:

  • Raising the bet after a win: earlier spins do not affect the next one.
  • Waiting for the The Hand of Midas bonus because it is «overdue»: every spin is independent.
  • A bet too large for the budget: high volatility needs a reserve of 100-200 spins.
  • Treating bonus buy like a normal spin: one buy costs dozens of bets.
