Pacific Gold is a six-reel, four-row video slot from ELK Studios with a ways-based format and avalanche-style wins. The game uses dropping symbols, vertically and horizontally stacked symbols, and large oversized symbols that can cover several positions. The reported RTP is 95.0%, with medium-high volatility and a bet range from 0.20 to 100.
The feature set includes the Ghost Box, which collects symbols involved in wins and later releases them back into play, plus Pacific Wave, a horizontal stack that can appear in sizes of 1x2, 1x3, or 1x4. Winning combinations can also interact with Power Stack, which grows when it is not part of an avalanche cycle. Bonus symbols trigger the Pacific Wave Free Drops bonus game, where at least one Pacific Wave is dropped in each free drop and the feature can retrigger.
A demo version is available for players who want to play for free and practice before playing for real money. The game also includes the X-iter system with multiple paid modes, including a guaranteed big symbol option and a Super Bonus mode with a persistent Ghost Box.
