Gold Rush Johnny Cash is a 5×3 video slot from B Gaming that follows the adventures of the main hero, Johnny Cash, a cowboy who longs to strike it rich on a gold claim. Luckily Johnny Cash doesn’t have to do everything on his own. During his quest for treasure, he will be assisted by free spins, wild symbols, a gold respin feature, and a massive jackpot. With so many advantages at his side, what could possibly go wrong?
Symbols
| 3 | 4 | 5 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gold Cart | 25 | 100 | 500 |
| Gold Sack | 15 | 50 | 200 |
| Lantern | 10 | 40 | 150 |

| A | 5 | 10 | 50 |
| K | 5 | 10 | 50 |

There is also a Johnny Cash wild, which can replace any of the base symbols, and a Dynamite Scatter that appears only reels 1, 3, and 5. The wild pays out at the same value as the Gold Cart, 3×25, 4×100, 5×500.
Free Spins
Three Scatter symbols trigger a 10 free spin bonus round. During the free spins, an additional 10 free spins can be earned if you get three Scatter symbols on any spin.
Golden Respins
Six or more gold coins will trigger Golden respins. During this bonus game, the only symbols that appear are gold. Once your spins are exhausted, the values of all the gold symbols are tallied up and awarded. There is also a dynamite symbol that only appears during the Golden respins bonus game, that will add an additional respin per dynamite symbol that shows up.
Aside from the normal coins, there is a green gold symbol that can appear during the Gold Respin minigame. This symbol collects the value of all the gold coin symbols that are on the screen.
Coin values can range all the way from x1 to x20.
Fill all 15 positions with golden coins and you will trigger the jackpot feature, winning 5000 times your initial bet!
Buy Bonus Feature
Both a “Buy Free Spins” and a “Buy Golden Respins” feature is available in this game, allowing you to jump directly to the Free Spins or Respins rounds immediately.
Conclusion
At first we thought this game was going to be about Johnny Cash the singer, after all B Gaming did do a frog Elvis game, but it turns out the hero’s name is cash because he’s a bit of a gold bug. Actually a slot based on Johnny Cash the singer might be even better. C’est la vie.
Anyway, despite that mix up, this is still a pretty good video slot. The game play is pretty nice, you have multiple bonus features and a jackpot possibility, which should be enough to keep even the most discerning of video slot fans interested.
The overall look and feel of the game is pretty good, it has a very light / happy mood which is nice, and which complements the colour scheme. The special effects are decent, and the background music is actually quite catchy and fun to listen to. All in all, this is definitely a pretty good slot game that should offer an enjoyable diversion to the players who gamble on it.
