Juicy Gems Review

Evoplay are a mid-range studio that always delivers in terms of technical performances. These guys just know how to design a game from the audiovisual point of view, though they are sometimes a bit lackluster when it comes to the gameplay bits. This trend continues with Juicy Games, but we’re obviously going to go into more detail. For now, however, we have to start by saying that the slot’s setup offers 5 reels, 3 rows and 5 paylines.

The theme of Juicy Gems is all classic – if fruit slots are your kind of thing, you’ll like what’s on offer. If you like your slots with a bit more freshness, though, there’s nothing you haven’t seen before here. At the same time, we have to give it to the designers – the production values are above average and the game works like a charm on all devices!

Juicy Gems Slot – Reels Screen

The volatility level of Juicy Gems is high, so you need to be a bit careful with your bet sizing. The hit frequency is only 13.75%, so you are bound to go through plenty of dead spins.

The max win is somewhere in the region of 5,555x your bet, while the slot’s betting range caters to both low rollers and high rollers. The least that you can play for is £0.10, but you can take that up to £75 per spin if you want to. Finally, the theoretical RTP of Juicy Gems is 96.11%, which is slightly above average.

Juicy Gems Slot Features

The symbols of Juicy Gems offer your typical fruit slot assortment. The low pays include cherries (which even pay for a set of just two), lemons, plums, and oranges. The high pays, on the other hand, show grapes, gems, and diamonds.

The symbol payouts are quite high, as even cherries will bring you 50x your bet for a full combination of 5 symbols. For 5 diamonds, meanwhile, you’ll get 1,000x your bet!

Aside from pay symbols, Juicy Gems also has Heart Scatters and Gem Bonus symbols. While the latter activate the slot’s lone gameplay feature, Heart Scatters pay out from all positions. You’ll get 2x your bet for a set of 3, while a set of 5 will bring you a juicy 50x payout.

Juicy Gems Slot – Hold and Win Bonus Feature

Gem Bonus symbols can come with various values, ranging from 1x to 16x. These are bet multipliers, but they don’t do anything outside the Bonus Game. To trigger it, you need to find 5 or more Gem Bonus symbols anywhere on the playing field.

The Bonus Game works like a fairly simple Hold and Win feature. You’ll begin with 3 respins and the reels hold only blanks and Gem Bonus symbols during those respins. Hit a Gem Bonus symbol to reset the tally back to 3, with the feature ending only once you run out of respins or fill the entire board with symbols.

Then, you’ll collect all winnings and return back to the base game. Note that this is also where you can win the slot’s 4 jackpots. Three of them can appear on your Gem Bonus symbols. These are called Minor, Major, and Super. They are worth 20x, 50x, and 500x your bet, respectively. Meanwhile, the Grand jackpot is worth 5,000x your bet – and you’ll win it if you fill the entire board with Gem Bonus symbols!

Review Summary

In short, Juicy Gems is a classic fruit slot with just one Hold and Win feature.

Is that enough in this day and age. Probably not for mainstream success, but we’re confident that the slot will find its fans. Its math model is entirely fair and the production values are above average, so the lack of gameplay depth is the only objective minus.

Pros

• Above average production values
• Hold and Win feature with 4 jackpots
• Fair math model

Cons

• Fruit theme not for everyone
• Not much depth
• Low 13.75% hit frequency
