BerryBurst Slot

This way, they successfully showcased 2 slots at once, achieving different goals:

• The players attempting to play a low- medium variance game with basic mechanics were satisfied using the original version;
• The players, eager for fiery features, full of risks and dangerous spins, were content with the higher variance game – as the MAX is always bringing eminent and edgier potential; and
• The casino operators – could drive one single marketing campaign for both slots (i.e. low costs, and a timely onset of 2 instead of 1 new title).
• The original version: BerryBurst, has an RTP of 96.56%, while the MAX version has 96.23%.
• The original version: BerryBurst, is built with Low-Medium Volatility, compared with the MAX mode’s higher volatility.
• The summary of the payout contrast between the MAX revamp, and the casual version is that:
• One renders higher payments (MAX), while
• The other pays more often (original slot).

Personal testers’ opinion about the BerryBurst slot

Our whole team of testers directly liked the machine, without any reservations or doubts about lacking Free Spins. The main contrast between this slot from its revamped version is that the MAX can provide a larger value for the symbols and better pay for the winning combinations.

The combinations here give variable rewards per nominal bet, but at the same time, losing the balance is not so easy. In case you lose a big chunk of your balance with one large winning via Wild symbols and Re-spin feature – you can swiftly be back in the “business”!

The prospect to get a good winning on this slot is great, as the provider claims up to 5000x the stake. Not so shabby, we may say. Of course, this does not happen often, but massive winnings have occurred and are admirable for a Low-Medium variance game. Although the slot’s RTP is set at the high 96.56%, if you are only going to play a few spins, you are not getting anything close to that. (The figure is theoretical and is on a long-distance base.)

Slot’s symbols and features

For both BerryBurst slots, the pay symbols are:

1. Diamonds, spades, and hearts at the low end,
2. Limes, blueberries, and oranges on the middle level, and
3. Raspberries at the high end of the paytable.

• The wild symbol is replacing all other symbols and is a letter “W” frozen in an ice cube that shatters when the Wild is expanding. So, basically, you have a reel of wilds. If you win, the wild reel will be locked into its place, and the other reels will automatically Re-spin.
• The Wild symbol pays 5000 when hitting a 15-symbol cluster.
• There are no scatters on this slot as it does not have a bonus game with Free Spins.
• Moreover, there are also no rough mathematical solutions in this slot, as with the original, which is nice and lucrative. Thus, the slot will pay plenty, without the feeling that it is cheating you.
• Many reviewers are seeing the similarity between both BerryBurst slots and the Starburst slot from the same provider. Sure, but besides the distinct theme and design, there are two other definable differences:

1. The ability to get an expanding wild symbol not only on 2, 3, and 4 reels but on all reels; and
2. The payment combinations are not formed by playing line, but in a cluster- a group of 5 and more connected tiles (horizontally and vertically) which score you the coins – the same as in the Aloha Cluster Pays slot also from NetEnt.

• The entire functionality is in the usual spins, and it essentially reduces to the expanded Wild symbol and the Re-spin feature.

How to win at the BerryBurst slot? (Conclusion)

• Our first advice in the ‘How to’ section is to practice with the game in DEMO mode before playing for real money.
• Also, you need to be attentive to not accidentally launch the MAX slot, thinking it is the same as the original BerryBurst.
• As we have stated above, the MAX revamped model has higher volatility. Be aware! Despite often rendering payouts, the BerryBurst slot is not keeping the balance well, so it is not suitable for playing with bonus money.
• The bonus hunters can try to complete the requirements here but will be disappointed. BerryBurst slot is recommended for playing with real money; however, be attentive and manage your capital, keeping track of how much the slot is compensating your losses.
• If you hit a long string of empty spins and your initial bankroll is reduced by 30%, it is advisable to leave the slot.
• With most of the slots, you are holding your breath in the expectation of triggering the bonus rounds, hoping that they will reward you greatly. Well, not with BerryBurst. Here you are getting the wins straight from the base game!
