Deal or No Deal Golden Game Review
An impressive number of slots based on this concept exist. Fans of the genre know pretty much what to expect, and the “big twist” this time is the Golden Multiplier Ladder that becomes active during the bonus round.
The DOND Bonus Game determines your number of free spins, and the Banker is also involved if you want to gamble to win larger cash pots up to 5,000x your stake. The stats are decent except for the below-average RTP of 95.5 %, and you can win up to 50,000x in total from the bonus round (capped at £250K). Players who enjoy this concept now have yet another option added to the mix.
Deal or No Deal: Golden Game Features
The wild symbol steps in for all regular pay symbols to help you form winning combinations. It’s also the highest value symbol in the game, awarding 125x your stake for 5 on a payline. Other than that, this game is all about the DOND feature, with the possibility of instant cash prizes to boot.
Landing at least 3 of the red ‘Deal or No Deal’ scatter boxes awards an instant cash prize up to 500x your stake. The 8 fixed cash prizes are on display on the left-hand side and, depending on how many scatter boxes you land, you can choose to exchange your smaller cash prize for a DOND feature that can lead to payouts up to 5,000x your stake.
The black phone scatter triggers the Deal or No Deal Bonus Game, whenever you land 3 on reels 2, 3 and 4. You will choose your lucky box from a numbered selection of 22 boxes, and then you have 4 more picks to make. Each pick eliminates free spin possibilities from 5 to 30, and the banker will offer you a deal after you’ve made your picks.
You can either take the deal, or see how many free spins your lucky box contains. The revealed lucky box number will be randomly chosen from the remaining free spin possibilities that have not been eliminated by your 4 initial picks. The Golden Game Free Spins round then commences.
You’ll see the Golden Upgrade Multiplier Ladder on the right-hand side, and all symbols that land will come with a regular or golden background. Each golden background symbol that land moves you up the multiplier ladder that starts at 2x by default. You need 7 golden symbols to reach the 3x multiplier, 10 to reach 4x, 12 to reach 5x, 14 to reach 10x and filling the screen awards the top 20x multiplier.
You can win the instant cash pot prizes during the bonus round also, but these are not affected by the multiplier. The multiplier is only applied to regular symbol wins in other words, and it’s possible to retrigger the bonus round with no upper limit.

If this all sounds a bit confusing, perhaps our highlights video can help clarify things for you. We land some smaller instant cash prizes initially, before the Deal or No Deal bonus round is triggered at 0:55 into the 3-minute video. Whether or not we took the bankers deal can be seen by hitting the play button.
Review Summary
Many games based on this concept are being released, and Golden Game sticks out because of the Golden Upgrade Multiplier ladder you get during the bonus round. Fans of the genre will probably not be disappointed about what’s on offer here, and the instant cash prizes help keep the base game somewhat interesting.
If you’ve tried these kinds of games before, you understand pretty well how it all works. For new players however, the whole DOND concept can come across as a bit confusing. It doesn’t take long before you get the gist of it with a bit of experience though, and this is a kind of game you either like or you don’t. Fans of the TV game show are the obvious target audience, but the market is getting a bit oversaturated with different versions at this point.
