Gonzo’s Treasure Hunt

Evolution Gaming is back and as innovative as ever with the latest of their live dealer casino games – Gonzo’s Treasure Hunt. This brand-new release is taking inspiration from one of the legendary online slots games in Gonzo’s Quest and combining it with the live experience of picking objects to reveal treasure, the likes of which could see you off on your very own dream adventure. There's also the ability to use a VR headset to enhance the iGaming experience. It feels as though you're standing in front of Gonzo and the dealer, as well as venturing to a wall of stones where all the action unfolds.

Evolution Gaming is on a hot streak, having recently released a slew of very successful live dealer games, with Deal or No Deal Live and Live Football Studio being ones that our casino site was particularly impressed with. Their ability to create casino games that manage to get an actual dealer live streaming directly to your device, as well as the digital special effects super-imposed into the picture, is quite remarkable. In Gonzo's Treasure Hunt, the screen opens with the dealer standing next to an animated Gonzo, both of whom stand before a giant wall hosting various symbols. As Gonzo’s Quest is a slot online, Evolution Gaming has tried to keep as much of the look and feel of the original game as possible.

On the wall behind the dealer and Gonzo, you’ll see a selection of different symbols. These symbols all represent different values. The values of the symbols are as follows:

• Silver – 1x
• Gold – 2x
• Purple – 4x
• Green – 8x
• Blue – 20x
• Red – 65x

In order to play Gonzo’s Treasure Hunt, it's actually straightforward. All you need to do is pick which symbol you want to hunt for. What will happen is that the wall behind the dealer and Gonzo will then turn blank, meaning that all the symbols will be removed off the stones, only showing grey stones. You will then need to pick from these grey stones to hopefully reveal the symbol you selected. Remember, you would have wagered a specific amount to go on the adventure and search for your chosen symbol. If you pick a stone that reveals your chosen symbol, then the multiplier value that symbol carries will be applied to your wagering amount.

As is to be expected, the lower the multiplier of the symbol you selected, the better the chances are of finding the symbol on the wall. The red symbol with a value of 65x your bet, for example, will be pretty hard to find but reward you handsomely should you discover it on the wall.

You will be able to select how many picks of stones on the wall you can have, with a maximum of 20 picks available. The more choices you select for around, the higher your wager will be, much like when you choose how many paylines you'd like active in online slot machines. The stones are all revealed right at the end to see if you managed to pick your symbol and how many times.

There’s bonus play in Gonzo’s Treasure Hunt, and it starts with the Prize Drop. Gonzo will turn the big golden key at which point prizes appear in the top row of the stone wall, and you’ll see the prize symbols start dropping down to land in openings, giving hidden stones bonus values. The highest value you can potentially have awarded is £20,000.

There is a real element of anticipation when playing Gonzo’s Treasure Hunt, as you go about picking the stones on the wall and only discover right at the end whether your treasure hunt was successful. What also makes it entertaining, should you have the device, is playing through a VR headset. While you’ll always have games such as online roulette and baccarat to win 1:1 payouts and higher, Gonzo’s Treasure Hunt makes the hunt for these payouts far more entertaining.
