It is part of the Beat the Beast saga which includes a total of 5 different slot games. The creature to face here is the Griffin, a terrifying mix between an eagle and a lion, all in a Greco-Roman universe.

As for the other creations of the same saga, the grid format remains classic, with 5 reels of 3 rows. To really discover the potential of this slot, you'll have to reach its bonus, as there are no particular features to list in the base game.

The different connections in Beat the Beast : Griffin's Gold

How the Beat the Beast: Griffin's Gold bonus works

The base game is interesting, but quite limited. To really discover the potential of Beat the Beast: Griffin's Gold, you'll have to take on the Griffin by reaching the free spins bonus. All you need to do is get 3 Scatter symbols on a single spin. You will then be awarded 10 free spins and we will see later that it is possible to increase this number. A symbol appears during the bonus: the winged Wild and its multiplier. In addition to making it easier to connect, it increases its multiplier by +1 for each paid connection. It starts with a x1 multiplier and can reach up to x5. The Wilds remain present throughout the bonus and move each round. When multiple Wilds are used on a single winning connection, their multipliers multiply with each other, allowing for huge payouts on a single spin.

Getting a connection with 3 Wilds x5 triggers a 125x win multiplier! In addition to these features, every time a Wild is used in a paying connection, an extra free spin is awarded. As is often the case, getting 3 Scatter symbols during the bonus triggers a retrigger, thus offering 10 extra free spins.

Our opinion on Beat the Beast: Griffin's Gold

Considered as pillars of the Thunderkick catalog, the Beat the Beast slots are often very similar in many ways. However, Beat The Beast: Griffin's Gold offers a radical difference in its approach to volatility. Although the other slots in the saga are quite volatile, they are still incomparable to the last of the 5 that can potentially multiply your bet by 22,222! The graphics remain neat as is the case with the rest of the saga. The theme is fun and the animations are fluid. We just expect a little more from the base game which remains quite sober, but that's what Thunderkick got us used to. In the end Beat the Beast: Griffin's Gold has all the reasons to please the volatility fans and it is not for nothing that it is very often played, whether by streamers or regular players.
