Golden Cobras
India is the destination for players of the Golden Cobras deluxe pokie from Novomatic. What do you think of when you think about India? The Taj Mahal, elephants, exotic women and mystic gurus? All present and correct here.
Despite the exotic setting, game play is very similar indeed to other Novomatic releases, and the Golden Cobras game is a standard five reel pokie with just ten possible pay-lines.

Special Features
Wild Symbol: the Guru is wild in Golden Cobras and can replace all other symbols except for the Scatters. Five Gurus will also mean that you have won a transcendental 500 times your bet.
Scatter Symbol: three baskets means that you enter the bonus games, heralded by the pungi playing snake charmer. The bonus games allow you 15 free spins along with a random bonus Guru Multiplier of three or five times your winnings.
Four baskets mean 20 free spins and add a possible x10 multiplier, and with all five baskets you not only get a very generous 25 free spins but could even nab x25 times your winnings with an appearance from the enigmatic Guru.
Bonus Multiplier Award: the Guru can lead you on the path to great riches, as when he appears on screen during free games awards then he multiplies the winnings randomly by either: 3, 5, 10 or even 25 times the value of the amount you have won. The maximum bonus increases depending on how many Scatter symbols you found before you entered the bonus game, as outlined above.
Maximum Win
There is no doubt that the image of the mystical Guru is the one you really want to see in the course of this pokie, as 5 of his symbols mean that you will win 500 times the value of your bet.
What’s more his appearance in the bonus game means that the value of winning lines are multiplied by up to 25 times, which will set anybody on the path to a very serene and joyous state of mind.
Overview
A middle of the road game from Novomatic, with a middle of the road Return to Player of 95.90%. The Golden Cobras game sadly does not utilise the potentially intriguing Indian theme to its fullest, and the game play suffers as a consequence.
While it is true that the prospect of winning up to 25 free spins is an enticing one, especially when you throw in that generous Guru multiplier, the lack of variety and visual excitement will probably cause most players to grow tired of this bland Indian dish before too long.
