9 Blazing Diamonds Review

There seems to be a wave of 9 Masks Of Fire spin-offs coming down the pipeline these days. Just yesterday we reviewed a similar title from Snowborn called Egyptian Tombs, but today it’s all about SpinPlay’s 9 Blazing Diamonds. Punters familiar with the scatter jackpot concept knows what to expect, but the bonus round twist makes this release somewhat unique.

With a classic fruit slot appearance, you’ll benefit from scatter jackpots up to 2,500x during base game play. The math model is solid enough, offering casual medium volatility, combined with an unusually high 41.97 % hit rate. Plenty of smaller wins to keep you afloat in other words, as you aim for the double, triple or quadruple jackpot prizes in the bonus round.

9 Blazing Diamonds Features

The flaming red wild symbol steps in for all regular pay symbols, and it’s also the highest value symbol in the game. Land 5 on a payline, and you win 40x your stake. In comparison, the top premium symbol, the flaming triple 7, awards 10x for 5 on a payline.

With that out of the way, we’ll take a look at the main features below.

The diamond scatter can land anywhere, and you need between 3 and 9 on the same spin to win an instant cash prize. More precisely, landing 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 diamond scatters awards 1x, 5x, 10x, 50x, 100x, 500x or 2,500x your stake, respectively. You can win the Blazing Diamond jackpots both in the base game, and during the bonus round.

You trigger the Blazing Wheel feature whenever you land 3 flaming wheel symbols on reels 1, 3 and 5 on the same spin. The wheel awards either a Blazing Diamond Jackpot, or up to 30 free spins. If you trigger the Bonus Round, the inner wheel spins to award a multiplier of 2x, 3x or 4x.

The multiplier you get applies to all wins during the bonus round, including the Blazing Diamond Jackpots.

This means that the top jackpot is worth 10,000x your stake if you get the 4x multiplier. Other than that, the bonus round plays out the same as the base game.

The 200 Spins 9 Blazing Diamonds Experience

We kept landing smaller payouts on every other spin at first, but at 1:23 we landed the 5 diamond scatter jackpot. Not exactly life-changing perhaps, but still decent. Not long after, at 1:38 into the 4-minute highlights video, we trigger the bonus round. You can see for yourself how we fared by hitting the play button.

Review Summary

SpinPlay has obviously been inspired by the success of Gameburger’s 9 Masks of Fire, and 9 Blazing Diamonds is a decent enough spin-off. The 41.97 % hit rate, combined with medium volatility and the above-average RTP of 96.33 %, makes this a pretty forgiving jackpot hunt overall. The 2,500x base game potential is already higher than in the original game, but the bonus round multiplier can really make things interesting.

As long as you trigger the free spins round, and not a Blazing Diamond Jackpot directly, you’re guaranteed to at least double all the cash prizes (and any bonus round winnings). This gives you something to look forward to, while the regular jackpot prizes are large enough to keep things tense also during the base game grind.

Nothing revolutionary to see here perhaps, but this is a pretty solid release from budding developer SpinPlay.

Pros

• Base game scatter jackpots up to 2,500x
• Bonus wheel w/ free spins and jackpots
• Bonus round w/ up to 4x higher jackpots
• Win up to 10,000x your stake

Cons

• Max bet is “only” £25 per spin

If you appreciate 9 Blazing Diamonds you should also try:

9 Masks Of Fire - is Gameburger’s mega hit. It has spawned many spin-offs, both from themselves and other developers. It’s all about the scatter jackpots up to 2,000x your stake, but you also have a bonus round with a 2x or 3x multiplier.

9 Pots of Gold - is a great alternative to the above, if you prefer the irish luck leprechaun theme instead. It’s Gameburger’s own reskin of their success game, and everything is thus the same except for the audiovisual presentation.

Egyptian Tombs - is a Snowborn title that’s pretty similar to the game at hand. You can land up to 10 scatters at any time, and the top scatter jackpot is worth 10,000x your stake. You get random super spins with extra scatters, and these trigger more frequently in the bonus round.
