How to Play Catch The Gold Hold and Win

Select a stake that fits your bankroll (session sweet spot: 160–220 spins).
Spin for left→right line wins; Horseshoe Wilds complete premiums.
Land 6+ Cash Coins to start Hold & Win with sticky respins and jackpots.
Hit 3+ Nugget Scatters to launch Free Spins with the Prospect Multiplier.
Target boards where coins cluster on reels 2–4; base game often tees up back-to-back features.

Toronto tip: if you see frequent double-coin drops plus Wild nudges, the cycle feels “warm” — worth a few extra sets.

Hold & Win — Sticky Respin Bonus

Entry: 6 or more Cash Coins anywhere in view.
Respins: Start with 3; each new coin resets to 3. Non-coin spins reduce the counter by 1.
Coin Types: Cash (adds to total), Jackpot (Mini/Major), Adder (+ adds value to all coins).
Grand: Fill all positions to win the Grand (when available).

Vancouver hint: opening boards with 7–8 coins and a corner cluster have better completion odds — worth riding.

Free Spins & Extras

Free Spins + Prospect Multiplier

3+ Scatters award Free Spins. Consecutive winning spins increase a global multiplier; a dead spin resets it. Wild nudges happen more often, and coin frequency is elevated.

Gold Rush Re-Spin (Random)

On near-misses with 4–5 coins, a one-shot respin can drop extra coins to push into Hold & Win — a Montreal favourite.

Volatility & Session Strategy

Volatility: Medium-to-high — base is steady, coin/jackpot bursts drive peaks.
Session Plan: Budget 170–230 spins to see multiple coin entries and at least one strong bonus.
Bankroll Tip: After a big coin board or multiplier ladder (×10+), many players downshift stakes and reset — a Calgary classic.

Mobile & Performance

Bold icons and big tap targets read cleanly on phones/tablets. Portrait suits the Montreal Metro; landscape helps track coin counters and multiplier ladders on longer GO Transit rides in the GTA.
