Golden Fever
A 2017 indie platformer that swings for the fences with a gold-rush theme but lands somewhere between quirky charm and rough-around-the-edges.
GamerScout Verdict
Quirky gold-rush platformer with personality but loose controls - skip unless you've played everything else.
Compare Prices(3 stores)
Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Golden Fever
I spent a couple hours with Golden Fever expecting either a polished retro platformer or a disaster. It's neither - it's a strange middle ground. The gold-rush setting gives it personality, and the action-platformer loop of jumping, dodging, and collecting is straightforward enough. The pixel art has personality, even if animation frames feel sparse and the difficulty curve can be jagged. What holds it back is lack of refinement. Hit detection feels floaty, level design doesn't always signal what you're supposed to do, and the whole thing feels like it needed one more pass in testing. It's playable and occasionally fun, but not memorable enough to recommend unless you specifically want a quirky indie platformer from 2017 and have exhausted the obvious choices.
