Nugget Ridge

Nugget Ridge Demo

In the Nugget Ridge demo, no reel position can multiply a win by more than 5x, but multiplier Wilds on the same win line multiply against each other. All of them arrive on one spin, the last of the free spins. Until then, the game stores each Bonus symbol that triggers the round or lands during it, and on that final spin, the stored symbols convert.

The game is Relax Gaming’s September 2026 gold-rush release, a 15-line slot on five reels and three rows.

The splash puts a red-rock canyon desert behind the logo, “NUGGET RIDGE” in gold block letters on a stone and wood plaque topped by gold nuggets, a pickaxe, and a shovel. Its third panel tells the player to “WAIT FOR THE LAST SPIN!” Past it, the reels are wooden mine frames with metal plates, and this is a mining-camp slot of carts and pickaxes, with a red wooden mine cart heaped with nuggets, a steel pickaxe on a green tile, a silver oil lantern with a glowing orange-red globe, and a large faceted gold nugget as the top symbol. A parchment sign pinned by a spike reads “BUY” and “FEATURE” on the left of the frame.

Gameplay Options

The Re-Spin

The Bonus symbol is a round rusty-gold bomb with a rope band, a short fuse, and the word “BONUS” across it in gold. Two of them outside Free Spins start the Re-Spin feature. The pair converts to Sticky Wilds, and the reels spin again around them. Each additional Wild that lands awards another re-spin, and all Wilds stick. Three or more Bonus symbols go to Free Spins instead.

TNT Detonator

The TNT detonator is a Wild of its own, a red wooden box with a brass plunger and a red T-handle grip, lettered “TNT” in black and “WILD” in gold. When it lands during regular play, the detonator expands upwards to create more Wilds. The rules attach a condition to that. If there would be no win, it does not expand, and the box keeps its single position on the reel.

Colossal Wild

The rules also list a colossal Wild that takes up 4 normal symbol positions when it lands on the reels.

Free Spins

Three Bonus symbols trigger 7 free spins, four trigger 9, and five trigger 11. Landing 3 or more Bonus symbols during the round awards an additional 3 spins. The regular Wild, a wooden “W” engulfed in orange flames, can replace any symbol other than the Bonus bomb.

Storage starts at once. The Bonus symbols that trigger the round are stored when it begins, and any Bonus symbol that lands during it is stored too, each one marking a position on the grid. The splash’s Free Spins panel shows the idea, with small bomb markers on the symbols beneath them.

The Final Spin

On the final spin, the stored Bonus symbols explode and convert to Wilds. Each Wild’s multiplier corresponds to the number of Bonus symbols stored in its position, and the highest multiplier one position can reach is 5x. Where several multiplier Wilds share a win line, their multipliers act on each other.

The game caps the win from each spin at 10,000x the bet, and the rules add that this cap is effectively only applicable during the final spin in Free Spins.

In the rules’ own example, each number is the count of Bonus symbols stored in one Wild’s position on the same line.

2 × 3 × 4 = 24x.

Buy Feature

Buying Free Spins costs 60x the reference bet, and the Buy Feature can only be activated in the base game. It guarantees a minimum of 3 BONUS symbols and entry to the round. A bought round has a theoretical return of 97.00%, higher than the standard game’s.

Nugget Ridge stands or falls on its final spin, and a player who doesn’t want the whole bonus to wait for one reveal won’t find enough in the Re-Spin or the TNT Wild to make up for it.
