The Hit ‘N’ Roll Bonus feature will be triggered when you drop 3 bonus symbols on reels 2, 3, and 4 per spin, you will then be awarded 1 spin on the bonus wheel, on which you can win a fixed cash prize, one of the six progressive cashpots (jackpots), or one of the three variants of the Free Spins mode.

Alternatively, you can buy this feature by pressing the “Hyper Bonus” button, you will then be able to choose between 2 options for the bonus feature, the first one excludes the Free Spins mode from the wheel, and only fixed cash prizes and cashpots can be won then, and if you go with the second option, cashpots will be excluded from the wheel, so you can only win one of the fixed cash prizes or one of the three variants of the Free Spins mode. Default values of cashpots range from x10 to x10000 of your bet, each cashpot value can be increased up to 5 times by playing the base game, and every won cashpot will be reset back to its default value. The minimum number of free spins, that you can win is 5, and it can be increased up to 25, while you are grinding the base game.

You will be awarded from 5 to 25 free spins when you activate the Free Spins mode, the number of received free spins depends on the number of spins you have done in the base game. Keep in mind, that the number of awarded free spins will be reset back to its default value of 5 after each activation of this bonus.

There are 3 types of this bonus, which can be won via the bonus wheel, each type is linked with a different feature, specifically, Scatter-Split, Paired Reels, or Expand ‘N’ Lock. If you have triggered the Free Spins mode with the Scatter-Split feature, then one of the regular symbols will be randomly chosen and will become a special one, which means you will get paid for dropping winning combinations with this symbol anywhere and not just on the adjacent reels, and not just left-to-right, and it will also always appear as Split, which means there will be from 2 to 3 instances of that symbol on one position, which will also be included in a winning combination when available.

When you trigger the Free Spins mode with the Paired Reels feature, from 2 to 4 reels will become linked and show the same arrangement of symbols. Selected reels will remain paired until this bonus ends. A regular symbol will be randomly chosen as a special one when you activated the Free Spins mode with the Expand ‘N’ Lock feature, and instances of the selected symbol will be placed over the selected reels for the remainder of this bonus, which increases the number of potential win ways. You will be awarded an additional free spin for each dropped scatter during this bonus.

Review recap

Goblins and Gemstones is a great slot both technically and visually. The graphics look magnificent and you will feel like a cog in a well-oiled machine. The technical balance is quite fair, 3 variants of the Free Spins mode and the max win of x49152 of your bet are balanced out by high volatility and 5 RTP ranges. The only “downside” of this slot can be considered the way you trigger the Free Spins mode, which can be only done via the bonus wheel. Overall, you should consider giving Goblins and Gemstones Hit n Roll a try, you will be excited during free spins, and you can also skip the grinding of the base game if you want to go straight to the bonus wheel on which you can also one of the fixed prizes or one of the progressive cashpots (jackpots).
