The main mechanic centres on the Griffin Emblem symbol. It acts as both Wild and Scatter, helps form winning combinations and triggers the bonus mode when three or more such symbols appear. In the base game the slot remains a classic 5-reel machine with fixed lines, while its main potential is revealed during Free Spins.

Bonus Mode

Free Spins are triggered by Griffin Emblem. During the bonus game, Roaming Wilds become active: special Wild symbols move across the reels and can take part in winning combinations. When successful matches occur, the Wild multiplier increases, making the bonus round the main source of large payouts.

Additional Scatter symbols can appear during the free spins and extend the bonus mode. Retriggers and increasing multipliers can produce stronger sequences, although high volatility means such moments do not occur in every stretch of play.

Theme and style

Beat the Beast: Griffin's Gold uses a fantasy and mythological style. The reels feature a griffin, golden artefacts, ancient symbols, weapons, musical instruments, Wild, Scatter and classic card values. The game falls into categories such as mythology slots, griffin slots, fantasy slots, adventure slots and video slots.

The visual style focuses on ancient ruins, treasures and confrontation with a mythical guardian. This is not an overloaded slot with dozens of features but a straightforward Thunderkick game with fixed lines, bonus free spins, roaming wilds and a high maximum win.
