Advantages
- Cascading Reels
- 19 773 paylines
- Hold and Respin function
Disadvantages
- Low RTP
The reels in Fruit Gemz Splitz slot are 5 by 3, and there are an additional three symbols located at the top of each of the three middle columns. The number of symbols has the potential to grow as a result of the Splitz mechanism, and there is a chance that a single spin might provide as many as 19,733 different chances to win.
Due to the relatively low RTP of 95.5%, it is not the kind of slot machine that offers really large winnings. Because there are a dozen distinct bet levels from which to pick, you have the ability to pay anything from 0.25 CAD to 50 CAD on each round. The Splitz system, Wild symbols, a Collection function, and Re-Spins all make appearances as major aspects in this game.
We are glad that Yggdrasil has chosen a slightly different look for this slot, namely, we don’t see just plain fruits but diamond ones, which is not often seen these days. The potential win opportunities are huge, but this has taken on the status of being standard for this developer. It seems a bit strange that all the action takes place in space, but of course, the most important thing is what kind of profits this slot will generate.
Features of Fruit Gemz Splitz Slot
- Cascading reels have been introduced, which means that winning symbols are replaced with brand-new symbols that cascade down from the top of the screen.
- The Splitz mechanism is going to be a significant part of this slot game’s gameplay. There are unique Splitz symbols that may appear anywhere on the reels, and they are represented by the game’s logo. When they do appear, they change into between two and four of the normal symbols. This will increase the number of symbols on the reels, which in turn will increase the number of possible winning combinations (up to 19,733 ways possible). These Splitz symbols have a chance of appearing on reels 2, 3, and 4.
- The Wild sign on the reels is the Fruit Gemz logo, which is also seen on the reels. It is a replacement that may only be used in conjunction with symbols that are considered regular. It is possible for it to land on columns 2-5.
- If a Collect icon falls on reel 1, it will give all of the prizes that are currently being shown on the special Coin symbols. There is a 1x to 888x payout potential for each Coin.
- In addition to that, there is a Hold & Respin feature that becomes active whenever there are six or more coins in view. It has 3 respins, and they are reset whenever new Collect or Coin symbols show on the screen. The prizes vary from the usual ones (which can be worth up to 10x) to the set jackpots, which can be worth up to 888x.
Our opinion
Overall, the game performs well. Thanks to the split symbol, it pays frequent but small wins. As we’ve always said Cascading Reels give much bigger wins when the rows on the playing field are more, but here unfortunately there are only three. We didn’t see the bonus buy feature, which is in almost all new slots lately.
Naturally, the biggest wins come from the rounds with Free Spins. Here we rely on the Respin feature, which always brings satisfaction. Unfortunately, the low RTP and average volatility level would turn off many avid players beforehand, but this is definitely a game to try.
