After the success of my business venture I had decided to take some time off and have myself another adventure. This time I was to go back in time to the 1880s to the time of Butch Cassidy and Gold Mines. I thought mining for gold and diamonds would be a great adventure and so off I went back in time.
Equipt with my 1880s clothing, a lantern and a pick and shuvel I set off to find some work. I came upon a small town and got me some lodgings and started to ask around for some mining work. There was a valley near by where they were looking for men to work in the diamond and gold mines. This sounded perfect to me. A little hard manual work was just what I needed.
I was told to report to the Diamond Valley the next day for work, in the mean time I headed to the nearest saloon for a shot of whiskey ans a bit of gambling. I was up early for work and soon I was hard at it digging and minig for diamonds and gold. It wasn't long before I found my first diamond and by the end of the week I had mined my fair share of diamonds.
During the coming weeks I had mined diamonds and gold and on one particular day I found something that was rather odd. As I dug deeper I noticed it to be some kind of small statue made out of gold and diamonds. The more I dug the more treasure there was and soon the whole gang was finding treasure. I was given a big pay rise at the end of the week and I was glad to have found work at the Diamond Valley.
My adventure came to an end and I found myself back in the future. I decided to go and play in my favorite online casino and head for the slots to play on Diamond Valley. Playing on the slot game reminded me of the great time I spent back in the 1880s, I also won a few dollors too. Try your luck on this thrilling game at your nearest Playtech casino today!
5-Reel Slots with a Progressive Jackpot
The object of Diamond Valley is to obtain a winning symbol combination by spinning the reels.
To play the game:
Select the number of paylines you want to bet on by clicking on the Bet One button or the line numbers to the left or right of the reels. When you click on payline number 3 for example, you also select paylines 1 and 2. Each click on the Bet One button selects one more payline. Click Bet Max or line number 5 to select all paylines. Remember that your total bet (the amount you spend on the game round) is line bet multiplied by the number of lines selected. Clicking Bet Max will also spin the reels automatically.
Click Spin (if you did not press Bet Max) to spin the reels.
If the reels show a winning combination after they stop (along an activated payline), you win according to the winning table (click Paytable to see the winning table).
Paylines:
Active paylines are represented by lines that appear over the reels. You can activate paylines and see their shape by progressively clicking the Bet One button.
Please note: You only win if a combination occurs on an active payline.
The Scatter symbol is an exception to that rule. Read more about the scatter symbol below.
About the winning tables:
The tables show a certain number for every hit amount for every symbol. If you have four symbols in a row starting on the leftmost reel (that is four hits), read the number on the line 'XXXX' and in the column under that symbol. That number is the winning amount. If you have winning combinations on multiple lines, add them all up to get the total winning amount. The symbols have to lie consecutively, starting from the leftmost reel, to qualify as hits.
The red gem in the lower left part of the winnings table is a scatter symbol - if you get three or more red gems on the screen simultaneously, you win the corresponding amount, whether the gems lie on any paylines or not.
Please note: There is a difference between the line bet and the total bet. The line bet shows how much you're betting on a single payline. The total bet shows how much you're spending in this game round. The payouts shown in the paytable are multiplied by the line bet, not by the total bet. If you get winning combinations on more than one payline, the winnings for each payline are added up.
Progressive Jackpot:
Jackpot
One of the possible wins in this game is the progressive Jackpot. A small percentage of each bet, by every person playing this game in each of many online casinos, is added to a common pot. When a player gets the right result, that player wins the entire Jackpot (in some games you can also win part of it).
After a Jackpot has been won, a new pot is started, with the casinos contributing a base amount of money (called a seed). This ensures that even if you get a Jackpot result in a game right after someone else has won the Jackpot, you will still get a large win.
Each game has its own Jackpot, built up by all the casinos that offer the game.
Please note:
In some games you have to make a specific bet to be eligible for the Jackpot.
If you get disconnected in the middle of a game round, your game does not change the value of the Jackpot. The state of the game up to that point is remembered by the casino; the next time you log in you can finish your game round with the same odds and without placing a new bet.
If a Jackpot is being discontinued (a game is closed and removed from the casino client), you will be notified of it by the casino.
