Rake It In Pots of Gold by Red Rake Gaming uses a Chinese fortune setting of temples, lanterns, lotus flowers and gold coins. Its five-reel, four-row board pays through 30 paylines. The central attraction is a locked-coin bonus in which colored FU coins can double, collect or add values as the board develops.
Quick take: Colored FU coins give the locked-coin chase more to follow than filling empty spaces.
Theme and Gameplay
Ordinary play begins with selecting a stake and spinning for matching-symbol line awards. The boy Wild can substitute to complete combinations, while Bonus and FU coins build toward a separate feature trigger. That gives each stop two useful readings: the paid symbol combinations and the count of qualifying coins.
The gold-coin theme becomes more purposeful in the bonus. Coins hold their positions, leaving a visible set of spaces still to fill. Their colors matter as well as their placement, because a newly arrived FU coin can affect values already on the board.
Slot Features
Six or more Bonus or FU coins in any combination trigger the bonus. The triggering coins lock and three respins begin. Each new coin also locks and resets the counter, with play ending when the spins expire or the grid fills.
Green FU doubles other coin values. Blue FU collects other coin values, while Red FU receives a random value that can include a Mini, Minor or Major prize. These effects can operate together, so progress involves more than increasing the number of occupied positions. A developing board can change value through the colored coins as well.
Fortune Pot randomly becomes a green, red or blue FU coin and may activate an additional bonus feature. The transformation offers another possible effect; it does not guarantee that every colored-coin function will appear.
Feature focus: After a FU coin lands, read its color and the values it affects before judging the benefit of the newly occupied space.
RTP and Win Potential
The bonus includes fixed Mini, Minor and Major prizes, while filling the grid awards the 2,000x Grand. That full-board prize gives the remaining gaps a concrete target. The reset rule keeps the round alive when another coin lands, but it does not ensure that every space will fill.
My Thoughts On This Slot
What works here is the distinction between board growth and value growth. A normal coin advances the filling process, while a colored FU coin can change what the existing collection is worth. That gives an established hold-and-respin format a useful extra layer.
There is more to track than in a plain cash-coin bonus, particularly when several colored effects operate together. The game should suit someone who enjoys watching held values develop and wants the next coin to matter for more than its own amount. Visitors who prefer an immediately settled result may find the resetting respins less appealing.
Final Take: A coin bonus where color can matter as much as another filled space.
