Katmandu Gold is a medium-high volatility slot from ELK Studios with an RTP of 96.2% and a payout structure that can expand from 4,096 to 531,441 ways to win. The game forms part of the ELK Gold Series and includes Big Symbols, the Ice Climber feature, and the Expanding Win mechanic.
Three or more bonus symbols trigger the Multiplier Free Drops bonus game, which uses a persistent multiplier that increases with each additional bonus symbol collected during the round. The Buy Bonus option can send players directly into the bonus feature, offering either a standard entry or a super bonus that starts with an x10 multiplier. The bonus game can also be retriggered.
In the demo version, players can play for free and practice before playing for real money while observing how Big Symbols fill empty spaces, how Ice Climber converts positions into high-value symbols and wilds, and how Expanding Win spreads across the reels. Avalanches can widen the layout to nine rows, creating the game's largest pay structure.
