It’s not often that you play a slot with what is essentially a whole mini board game inside it, but 5K Gold Mine Dream Drop has this feature, amongst others. Let’s take a look at them all.
Gold Rush Trail
All around the edge of the play grid is the Gold Rush Trail. You’ll notice that a little mining cart sits on it, hoping to be filled with gold. The good news is, you can move the mining cart a step closer to its goal every time scatter symbol modifiers are revealed.
When a scatter symbol lands, the reels spin to reveal one of the following effects:
- Move X – move a certain number of spaces in the specified direction.
- Restart – the cart moves to the start and you get the prize that’s shown on the start square.
- Cash Prize – you get a surprise cash prize.
- Dream Drop – you get to play the Dream Drop jackpot game.
- Collect – awards the whole value of the prize square, then sends the cart back to the start.
Further note on the collect symbol: If the collect symbol lands then you can win cash, free spins, a mystery prize of the DD jackpot game. The mystery prize displays three gems, pick one to reveal any of the prize types above.

If you win the free spins bonus round then you get 10 free spins. If scatters land, they give you a cash prize or a move-and-pay instruction for the mining cart. If the mining cart hits a collect square during this round then it’s instantly won and the cart doesn’t return to the start. Free spins squares are also instantly collected, giving you an immediate +5 or +10 free spins.
