Often online casino games suppliers release video slots around the same time with similar themes. This could be by design or coincidental. The material news is that close on the heels of Gold King from Play n Go, Red Tiger has released a video slot titled Midas Gold. Features wise it is much simpler than the Play n Go slot, but it is more in tune with the tale from Greek mythology that warns against greed. You can play Midas Gold at online casinos like InterCasino.

Midas Gold is a 243 ways online slot and therefore you should expect low variance. The high paying symbols begin with a royal lady. Going by the story this should be the princess, the daughter of King Midas. A combination of five symbols pays 8 times the total bet. The other high paying symbols are throne, statue and bowl of fruits. The low paying symbols are the playing card icons crafted in Greek calligraphy style. There is no wild symbol or scatter symbol.

The gaming feature is triggered when a single King Midas symbol appears anywhere on the reels. The King Midas symbol does not award any payouts. In the story Midas had received a boon that anything he touched would turn into gold. At some time he touches all the items that feature in the high paying symbol. When he is hungry he touches an apple and the fruit bowl turn golden. When he touches his daughter and turns her into gold he realises that the boon is actually a curse. But in the Midas Touch feature in this slot game the boon remains a boon and is the route to big wins.

When King Midas appears on the screen he randomly touches any symbol. All instances of that symbol turn into gold and remain fixed. You will be awarded one free respin. If more of the same symbol again appear on the reels you get another free respin with the additional symbols also getting fixed. The process continues till there is no addition of the selected symbol. Payouts are awarded only after the final respin. Since the princess awards the highest payouts you will want King Midas to touch her and turn her onto gold.

Gold King can also be played at InterCasino. Midas Millions is another online slot game with this theme. It was developed by Ash Gaming and is live at Playtech powered online casinos. Miss Midas from NextGen does a gender reversal with the lady turning things into gold.
