Gems Inferno Megaways

Gems Inferno Megaways Review

This game has a unique approach to gemstone mining, keeping the theme minimal with a generic visual presentation. Chain Reaction wins occur in the base game, allowing for winning streaks, but the symbol values are often too low to make a significant impact.

The Gem Sack symbol appears on the top reel, like the wild, awarding up to 3 cash prize gem symbols. This can activate the hold and win style bonus round, where cash prize symbols up to 2,000x your stake may land. This is the only feature, and the 2,553x potential is underwhelming. Overall, this release feels weak.

Premium symbols pay between 0.8 and 1.5 x your stake for 6 of a kind wins. The Wild symbol substitutes for pay symbols to help form wins. The wild symbol only appears on the top sliding reel. The Chain Reactions mechanic removes all winning symbols from the grid. New and/or existing symbols drop down from above to fill the gaps. This continues as long as you win.

The Magic Gem symbol has cash prize values between 1 and 100 x your stake. Diamond symbols pay 10x your stake. Red Diamonds pay 50x the stake, while Pink Diamonds are worth 250x your stake. The Blue Diamond is worth 2,000x your stake. Only one Pink and Blue Diamond can land on the same spin. Magic gems have a monetary value while other prize symbols have a bet multiplier.

The Gem Sack scatter can land on the top horizontal sliding reel, and it gives you up to 3 gem scatter prize symbols placed on the main grid. None of the gem and diamond symbols pay anything in the base game. You need to trigger the bonus round for that.

The Gemmed! Feature triggers when 6+ gem prize symbols of any kind land in view, activating a hold and win style bonus round. You start with 3 respins, with the triggering gems sticky on a cleared grid. The grid is similar to the triggering grid in how many positions per reel you get. Any new gem prize symbols that land become sticky, resetting the respins tally.

Gem Sack symbols can land during the feature, awarding extra gems, but the Gem Sack symbol doesn’t become sticky on the top sliding reel. The Gemmed! Bonus Round ends when you run out of respins, or if you fill the entire grid with gem prize symbols. All gem prize values are summed up and paid when the feature ends.

The Bonus Buy feature is available in some jurisdictions. If available, you can purchase the Gemmed! Bonus Round for 80x your stake, increasing the RTP to 95.73 %.

The video showcases a brief base game glimpse, before the Gemmed! Bonus Round is purchased at 0:35 into the 2:36-minute video. It begins with the minimum 6 triggering gem prize symbols, and the video shows how it plays out.

Review Summary

Gems Inferno Megaways resembles something another developer might create on a bad day, but with a weaker math model. The game is also light on features, even compared to other Megaways releases. The mining theme is fairly generic, although the symbol explosion from the grid is satisfying.

Theoretically, due to the 117,649 ways to win, decent base game payouts are possible, but how often do you see a full grid Megaways win? The pay symbol values are generally low, and cascading wins rarely top you up. The hold and wins style Gemmed! Bonus Round lacks extras, and the top-tier 2,000x symbol is not impressive. The 2,553x potential is equally underwhelming.
