Juicy Gems

Juicy Gems Review

This studio consistently delivers in terms of technical aspects. They excel at designing a game from an audiovisual perspective, although the gameplay can sometimes be less impressive. This continues with Juicy Games, which will be discussed in more detail. The slot's layout features 5 reels, 3 rows, and 5 paylines.

Juicy Gems has a classic theme – fans of fruit slots will appreciate it. However, if you prefer more modern slots, this might not offer anything new. The production values are above average, and the game performs well on all devices!

The volatility of Juicy Gems is high, so bet sizing should be approached carefully. The hit frequency is only 13.75%, which means frequent dead spins. The max win is around 5,555x your bet, and the betting range suits both low and high rollers. The minimum bet is £0.10, and the maximum bet is £75 per spin. The theoretical RTP of Juicy Gems is 96.11%, slightly above average.

Juicy Gems Slot Features

The symbols in Juicy Gems are typical for a fruit slot. The low pays are cherries (which pay for just two), lemons, plums, and oranges. The high pays are grapes, gems, and diamonds. Symbol payouts are high; cherries award 50x your bet for a full combination of 5. Five diamonds will give you 1,000x your bet!

Besides pay symbols, Juicy Gems also has Heart Scatters and Gem Bonus symbols. The latter activate the slot’s only gameplay feature, while Heart Scatters pay from any position. Three will get 2x your bet, and five will get you 50x.

Gem Bonus symbols have values from 1x to 16x. These are bet multipliers, but they only function during the Bonus Game. To trigger it, you need 5 or more Gem Bonus symbols anywhere on the reels.

The Bonus Game is a simple Hold and Win feature. You start with 3 respins, and the reels only contain blanks and Gem Bonus symbols. Landing a Gem Bonus symbol resets the respins to 3. The feature ends when you run out of respins or fill the entire board. You then collect all winnings and return to the base game. This is also where you can win the slot’s 4 jackpots. Three can appear on your Gem Bonus symbols: Minor, Major, and Super, worth 20x, 50x, and 500x your bet, respectively. The Grand jackpot is worth 5,000x your bet – won by filling the entire board with Gem Bonus symbols!

Review Summary

In short, Juicy Gems is a classic fruit slot with just a Hold and Win feature. Whether that's enough is debatable, but the slot will likely find its fans. Its math model is fair, and production values are above average, but the lack of gameplay depth is the main downside.
