How it plays
7 rules screens from the game
Midas Golden Touch – Reborn runs five reels and three rows across fifteen fixed paylines, paid from the left for the longest win on each line. King Midas returns 10x the bet for three, 20x for four and 75x for five, the Golden Crown 5x, 7x and 25x, the Silver Goblet 4x, 6x and 20x, the Treasure Chest 3x, 5x and 15x. The Ace pays 1x, 2.5x and 7.5x, the King 1x, 2.5x and 7x, the Queen 1x, 2.5x and 6.5x, the Jack 1x, 2x and 6x, the Ten 1x, 2x and 5.5x and the Nine 1x, 2x and 5x.
Wild duty falls to the Golden Hand: it substitutes for everything but the Scatter, pays like King Midas when it forms a line of its own, and every Hand inside a winning line multiplies that line: x2 for one, x4 for two, x8 for three, x16 for four and x32 for five. Three, four or five temple Scatters open ten, fifteen or twenty free spins, and another three inside the feature add ten more.
Before every free spin one Golden Hand is placed at random on the reels. Any win then starts a sticky respin: the winning symbols lock in place and everything else respins, repeating for as long as a new winning symbol joins the lock.
Thunderkick lists 96.17% as the return on ordinary play and 96.43% for the feature purchase, which costs 80x the bet and opens ten spins. Rounds are capped at 10,100x the bet; bets run EUR 0.10 to EUR 100.00, and the volatility, by the studio's card, is high.

Verdict
Three Hands on one line, rarelyThree Golden Hands on one payline, the x8 step, turned up once in 480 natural free spins: five Kings in round 4735 paid EUR 56.00, and the twelfth spin that held them finished at EUR 74.00 after four respins. Fifty purchases reached that step four times, and ticket 49 made the most of it, five Golden Crowns at x8 for EUR 200.00 on a single line, EUR 228.00 on the spin and EUR 251.50 for the EUR 80.00 ticket, the only purchase past three times its price.
Single and double Hands did the everyday work. On ordinary spins 715 lines through one Hand paid EUR 2,479.00 and 94 lines through two paid EUR 1,148.00, the largest of them five King Midas doubled to EUR 150.00 in round 3976; the one three-Hand line outside the feature was worth EUR 16.00. Inside the 46 natural features, x2 lines paid EUR 1,383.00, x4 lines EUR 790.00 and the single x8 line EUR 56.00 of the EUR 2,638.00 the free spins returned.
The sticky respin ran on 169 of the 480 natural free spins, the ones that paid, and the other 311 ended blank despite the Hand placed before each. A feature averaged 7.85 respins and the busiest ran 22; two Hands on a line was the ceiling for 23 of the 46 features and one Hand for 22. Features arrived once per 217 rounds, 4.6 bHz, and paid 57.35x the stake on average, median 44.5x; only rounds 4262 and 4735 earned a second temple trio and twenty spins.
Fifty EUR 80.00 purchases returned EUR 3,234.50 of their EUR 4,000.00, 80.86%, a median ticket at EUR 45.75 and 35 tickets below the price; six of them retriggered to twenty spins. The 10,000 ordinary rounds came back at 87.66%, with 8,204 rounds paying nothing and the balance down from EUR 5,000.00 to EUR 3,765.50 at the end.
- Ticket 49 put five Golden Crowns through three Golden Hands for EUR 200.00 on one line, EUR 228.00 on the spin and EUR 251.50 for the EUR 80.00 purchase.
- Lines through a single Golden Hand paid EUR 2,479.00 on ordinary spins, and five King Midas doubled by one Hand returned EUR 150.00 in round 3976.
- Round 4735 earned a second temple trio, ran twenty spins for EUR 205.00, the best round of the test, and held the only natural x8 line.
- Free spins returned 57.35x the stake per feature on average, with a median of 44.5x across the 46 features.
- A placed Golden Hand paid on 169 of the 480 natural free spins only; the other 311 ended blank.
- Thirty-five of the fifty EUR 80.00 purchases came back below their price, and ticket 27 returned EUR 4.00.
- Forty-four of the 46 natural features never left their ten spins; rounds 2037 and 8871 paid EUR 2.00 each.

FAQ
8 questions · answered from the logGolden Hand on a line: what does one add?
It doubles the line, two Hands quadruple it and three multiply it by eight. On the ordinary spins of the test 715 lines ran through one Hand for EUR 2,479.00, 94 through two for EUR 1,148.00 and one through three for EUR 16.00; the largest single line, five King Midas with one Hand, paid EUR 150.00 in round 3976.
Was the EUR 80 bonus buy worth it in this test?
No, not as a group. Fifty tickets returned EUR 3,234.50 of their EUR 4,000.00 price, 80.86%, with a median of EUR 45.75 and 35 tickets below the price; six of them retriggered to twenty spins. Ticket 49 alone returned EUR 251.50 on the strength of one x8 line worth EUR 200.00.
Inside the free spins, how does the sticky respin work?
After any win it locks the winning symbols and spins the other positions again, repeating while a new winning symbol joins the lock. In the test 169 of the 480 natural free spins set it off, a feature averaged 7.85 respins and the longest run was 22, and the twelfth spin of round 4735 grew EUR 56.00 of x8 line into EUR 74.00 over four respins.
Is a Golden Hand placed on every free spin?
Yes, one is placed on the reels before each free spin, but it only pays when it completes a line. That happened on 169 of the 480 natural free spins; the placed Hand lined up with two others only once, on the twelfth spin of round 4735, where five Kings paid EUR 56.00 at x8.
Does 87.66% mean the demo of Midas Golden Touch pays less than its 96.17%?
No, it means this sample landed 8.5 points under the listed figure: 10,000 rounds at EUR 1.00 returned EUR 8,765.50, and the approximate 95% CI of 75.43% to 99.88% around that mean reaches past 96.17%. The 8,204 rounds that paid nothing are where the balance went, not a changed setting.
Over 10,000 rounds, how many times did the temple Scatters open free spins?
Forty-six times in 10,000 rounds, 4.6 bHz or one feature per 217 rounds, and free spins made up 30.1% of all money the series paid. Forty-four features ran the standard ten spins; only rounds 4262 and 4735 collected another temple trio inside the feature for twenty.
Can one round of Midas Golden Touch exceed 10,100x?
No. The configuration caps a round at 10,100x the bet as its maximum exposure, and nothing in the test came close: round 4735 topped the ordinary series at 205x, and the best purchase, ticket 49, reached 251.5x the EUR 1.00 stake.
Which symbol paid the biggest single line of the whole test?
The Golden Crown: five of them at x8 paid EUR 200.00 in purchase 49. In ordinary play five King Midas doubled by one Hand paid EUR 150.00 in round 3976, and in natural free spins five Treasure Chests at x4 paid EUR 60.00 in round 9651.
