Intrepid Adventurer Kane has found the lost Temple of Luck, but only you can climb up to 262,144 ways to win staircase and get the riches in this Ecuador Gold mobile slot?
There is something about traversing a thick South American jungle in search for lost Inca treasure that gives us a tingle in our slot playing finger.
Don’t know what it is about it, but we love adventurer games like Gonzo’s Quest slot and the Temple Quest Spinfinity game. And Elk Studios have sure done a good job of catching that thrill in this 6×4 reel machine.
And we mean that literally. Because this Ecuador slot game has avalanching reels, on a win more symbols not only drop from above but also adds an extra row.
The easiest way to get there is with a little bit of luck, a whole load of wild symbols (which can spread across the reels).
More importantly, you have the possibility of catching symbols that are 2×2, 3×3 or 4×4 in size, crushing symbols on their way down like in the Asgardian Stones slot machine.
The thing is, we would have had fun playing on this slot machine just with those roaming wilds, mega symbols and expanding reels.
But the free drops is what really kept us interested and made this into a 5-star slot review. Because during the free spins, not only are the reel expansions permanent on every win, but the wilds don’t explode on a win and stay on screen for any further symbol drops.
Who doesn’t want to play with 262,144 ways to win full of possibilities? Granted, that possibility is ‘only’ 2500 x bet, but that’s on a single round of wins. The next drop and the next free spin could get you as much.
Probably our next favourite of the Elk Studios games next to their Vegas Diamonds slot and Poltava.

Avalanche and increasing Reels: Every single time you get a win on any symbol, those symbols will explode and more symbols will drop from above. Every win will also add an extra row of symbols above, increasing this 4096 ways to win slot into a maximum of 262,144 ways to win.
Once you get a loss, the game goes back down to 4096 ways.
Ghosting Wilds: At any point, a ghosting wild might appear in the base game, and when it does, it moves a random number of steps in any direction. It leaves behind it a trail of wilds, including any super symbols.
Super Mega and Epic Symbols: All symbols exist can drop on screen in the following sizes.
Better yet, they clear away the smaller symbols and crash their way down to the bottom of the screen.
Free Games: Three bonus symbols award 10 free drops. Four gives you 15 free drops, five awards 20 free drops and 6 gives you a huge 25 free drops.
Unlike the base game, a win will increase the number of symbols and ways to win, but unlike the base game, a loss won't bring the number of ways down. It can continue until the maximum 8th level and can be re-triggered again and again.
Better yet, during the free drops, all wild symbols become indestructible and remain for all avalanching reels.
We suspect that this Ecuador Gold slot on mobile is one of those love it or hate it machines.
You will either love how these avalanching reels give you more and more symbols, increasing the potential for wins... or get incredibly frustrated when you never manage to get more than an extra row or two.
But stick with it and you might just get into the temple and unlock the real treasure; mostly thanks to those mega symbols and free spins that lets you climb up higher and higher.
If this feels too out there for you, maybe stick to a more regular Aztec game like the Aztec Warrior Princess slot by Play'n GO or the Aztec Gems game by Pragmatic Play.
Ecuador Gold is a 5 reel 6-row slot with 4096 ways to wins, but on every win, an extra row will be added up to 8 rows and 262,144 ways to wins. You also get free spins, mega symbols and spreading wilds.
