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

Bonus mode

Free Spins are triggered by the Griffin Emblem. Roaming Wilds become active in the bonus game: these special Wild symbols move across the reels and can participate in winning combinations. The Wild multiplier increases after successful wins, making the bonus round the main source of larger payouts.

Additional Scatter symbols can appear during Free Spins to retrigger and extend the bonus. Retriggers and increasing multipliers can create stronger sequences, although high volatility means these moments will not appear during every session.

Theme and style

Beat the Beast: Griffin's Gold uses a fantasy mythological style. The reels feature the griffin, golden artefacts, ancient symbols, weapons, musical instruments, Wild, Scatter, and classic card values.

The visual style focuses on ancient ruins, treasure, and a confrontation with a mythical guardian. This is not an overloaded slot with dozens of features, but a clear Thunderkick game with fixed paylines, bonus Free Spins, Roaming Wilds, and a high maximum win.
