Ganesha Boost Hold and Win Review

The Hold and Win genre is overflowing with new releases every month, and there seems to be no end in sight. Booongo is a big contributor to this never-ending trend, and Ganesha Boost Hold and Win is far from the worst installment in their ongoing jackpot series. Visually, it’s not all that convincing perhaps, due to the strange mix of Hindu and Chinese-style visuals.

The Boost feature is a refreshing touch however, as it allows otherwise “useless” bonus cash symbols to be collected at random times also in the base game. This Boost collector can do the same in the Hold & Win feature as well, and the free spins round comes with x2 multiplier wilds. The 5,000x potential is stronger than usual, making this installment one of the better alternatives in the range.

Ganesha Boost Hold and Win Features

The pink Genesha Wild steps in for all regular pay symbols, and it’s also the highest value symbol in the game. Landing 5 on a payline awards 12x your stake, while the top-tier Green Dragon symbol pays 10x for the same in comparison.

The Free Spins round is triggered whenever you land 3 Temple Scatters anywhere in sight, and you get a 1x scatter win up front. You’re then awarded 10 free spins for starters, and landing 3 scatters during the feature awards +10 extra spins.

The Ganesha Wild lands with an x2 multiplier during the bonus round, and the Hold and Win Bonus Game can be triggered during the feature or directly from the main game.

The Hold and Win Bonus Game is triggered whenever you land 6+ bonus cash symbols anywhere in view. The triggering cash symbols become sticky on an otherwise clean grid, and only cash symbols, jackpot symbols, blanks or special Boost Symbols will land during the feature. The cash symbols are worth between 1x and 16x your stake.

Each non-blank symbol that lands resets the respins tally to 3 again, and it also becomes sticky on the grid. The Boost symbol can land anywhere during the feature, and it will collect all cash values currently present on the grid. The feature goes on until you either run out of respins, or you fill the grid with 15 non-blank symbols.

Filling the screen with sticky cash symbols (and jackpot symbols) awards the Grand Jackpot worth 5,000x your stake.

The Mini, Minor and Major Jackpots are won by landing the corresponding symbols, and these pay 20x, 50x and 150x your stake, respectively. You can land more than one of the smaller jackpots per round.

Finally, we should also mention that the Boost Feature can benefit you in the base game as well. Anytime the Boost symbol lands together with cash Bonus symbols, all present cash values are collected. The Boost symbol will only appear on the middle reel during the main game and in the free spins round.

The 200 Spins Ganesha Boost Hold and Win Experience

You get to see the Boost feature in action at the start of the almost 3-minute highlights video, and the Free Spins round is triggered close to the 1-minute mark. Not too long after, around 1:46, we trigger the Hold and Win Bonus Game, and you can see for yourself how it all went by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

Booongo continues their Hold and Win range with a Hindu mythology installment, although most of the symbols seem to be inspired by asian cultures. This creates a bit of incongruency, and it would have been cooler with a straight-up Hindu gods release, as this is something you don’t really see all that often (not to say ever).

Other than the somewhat schizophrenic theme, Ganesha Boost Hold and Win does not stick out much from the run-of-the-mill efforts we see all the time. You get a x2 wild in the bonus round, and the Hold & Win feature comes with a collect symbol. You’ll still most likely need the 5,000x Grand Jackpot to do serious damage here, although decent total payouts are possible from the bonus round also.

Pros

• FS w/ x2 multiplier wilds
