The object of Golden Tour is to obtain a winning symbol combination by spinning the reels.
To play the game:
· Choose the amount you wish to bet on each payline, by clicking on the + and – buttons on the right of the screen.
· Select the number of paylines you want to bet on by clicking on the Bet One button or the payline numbers to the left or right of the reels. When you click on payline number 3 for example, you also select paylines 1 and 2. Each click on the Bet One button selects one more payline. Click Bet Max or payline number 5 to select all paylines (if you do not have enough balance, the maximum possible number of paylines is selected). Remember that your total bet (the amount you spend on the game round) is line bet multiplied by the number of lines selected. Clicking Bet Max will also spin the reels automatically.
· Click Spin (if you did not press Bet Max) to spin the reels.
· If the reels show a winning combination after they stop (along a payline you bet on), you win according to the winning table. Click the Paytable button to see the paytable, if you wish. Close the paytable by clicking the Paytable button again. If you win on multiple paylines simultaneously, your winnings are added up.
Paylines:
The paylines are represented by lines that appear only when activated. You will see the shape of each individual line by activating the lines one by one by pressing the Bet One button.
Please note: a winning symbol combination must occur on an activated payline (a payline you have placed a bet on) for you to win!
The Scatter symbol and the Bonus round symbols are exceptions to that rule. Read more about the Scatter symbol and the Bouns round symbols below.
About the winning tables:
The tables show a certain number for every hit amount for every symbol. For example, if you have four symbols in a row starting on the leftmost or rightmost reel (that is four hits), read the number on the line “XXXX” and in the column under that symbol. Multiply your line bet by that number and you get the winning amount. If you have winning combinations on multiple lines, add them all up to get the winning amount. The symbols have to lie consecutively, starting from the leftmost or rightmost reel, to qualify as hits. If you have five symbols in a row, you are only paid once.
Scatter symbols and bonus game:
The gopher, duck and catfish symbols are scatter symbols – when you get 3 or more of these symbols (of the same kind) on the screen during one round, lying consecutively, you enter the bonus round. The symbols don’t have to follow any payline, meaning they can be on any position on the reel.
In the bonus game, choose a driver, an iron and then a putter. You will win a prize based on these three clubs you choose. If you entered the bonus game with four scatter symbols and not just three, your prize is tripled. If you entered with five scatter symbols, your prize is multiplied by ten.
