The previous slot, Rabbit in the Hat 2, was never about miraculous spectacles, and neither is Gold Boom. Notably, the maximum potential win has climbed to 5,650.4 times the bet, surpassing the rabbit slot's 5,000 times threshold.

Gold Boom: Slot Verdict

Despite the simple gameplay, Gold Boom carries its own charm. Perhaps the allure of mining themes and characters adds a comfort level, softening criticisms towards the game. It's plausible that Slingshot Studios was inspired to recreate their previous concept set in a mining locale they enjoy. Whether it was hurriedly crafted or requested by partners, is unclear. Nonetheless, Gold Boom emerges more as an adequate, rather average game, easily set aside upon exploration.

Although it suffices, Gold Boom is a slot easily forgotten about when moving past your gaming adventure.
