- Another mining slot but some original features
- Stacked miners can lead to decent rewards
- Fairly low maximum win potential and nothing too exciting
Drill That Gold is a new, miner-themed game that, for me at least, is starting to get a bit old and look rather dated. I think they could have been a bit more adventurous here to help the slot stand out. That said, at least some of the features tie in with the theme so I’ll let them off. To start things off, all you need to do is spin the reels and try to get a winning combination from left to right using the base symbols. These are as follows, ranked in ascending order based on their value:
- 10
- Jack
- Queen
- King
- Ace
- Pickaxe
- Lantern
- Cart
- Diamond
- Miner
There’s a wild symbol as well that substitutes for all other symbols apart from the bonus symbols.

Drill That Gold Slot Bonuses and Features
Drill Feature. If you manage to land a full stack of miners on any reel, it turns into a silver drill. This then turns into a wild, revealing a reward up to 100x your stake.
Spin Modifier. If you get a non-winning spin, it may, at random, award you a cash prize or trigger the free spins bonus.
Gold Spins Bonus. This is triggered when you land 3 or more bonus symbols, shown as a drill, anywhere on the reels. You’ll get 6, 8 or 10 free spins of 3, 4 or 5 bonus symbols. Here, in addition to the silver drill feature, you can also get a golden drill. Both drills can award you prizes up to 1,000x now, instead of just 100x. Additionally, whenever a miner lands it will nudge up or down to fill the reel, helping you to get more drills. Lastly, you can land 2, 3, 4 or 5 bonus symbols to give you another 4, 6, 8 or 10 free spins.
Conclusion
Drill That Gold slot from Pragmatic Play certainly has an appropriate name, as drills in this game are what will make you the money. In the base game, these trigger less often and only award up to 100x so don’t expect anything crazy to come out of it. The free spins bonus is much more rewarding, with far more triggers as only one miner is needed, and a higher win potential up to 1,000x per drill, though you’ll need a few to reach the maximum win of 5,000x. All in all, a pretty nice and unique idea behind the drills but the slot overall isn’t anything that special.
