Everyone likes fruits. Not only are they nutritious and delicious, but they play a large part in the history of gambling and slot machines.

This is because, for reasons lost to time, the first symbols used on the old-fashioned one-armed bandits were fruits. Most famously the cherry, but over time it encompassed others to create a veritable fruit salad of images connected forever to the most popular kind of casino game ever – the mighty slot.

Red Tiger is now reinventing the fruit machine for the next generation with a game featuring a massive 8x8 grid, more fruit than you can shake a stick at, and an engaging cluster win system.

Theme

The visual side of this offering is very minimalist but still retaining the sophistication that’s expected from this kind of game. The color scheme is royal purple with the background consisting of squares of different shades that glisten and reflect light.

It’s a sort of presentation that doesn’t try to wow with big effects and flashy graphics but nevertheless remains engaging and interesting.

When the reels start to tumble there are sound effects and animations that up the excitement and make the players wonder what will come next.

The fruits form the low-paying roster…

…and the high paying symbols are stars, liberty bells, dice, diamonds, and the legendary lucky 7 without which it would all feel incomplete.

Betting Options and Functions

As mentioned previously the game takes place on a pretty imposing 8x8 grid which is just huge. Traditional paylines are replaced with a cluster system in which any 5 adjacent symbols vertically or horizontally create a winning cluster.

And since this is a cascading game (also called tumbling or avalanche) the cluster then disappears allowing for more symbols to appear and the chance for new wins to form a chain.

Punters can choose to stake between 20 pence and 20 pounds on a single spin, with autoplay and turbo mode being offered.

Special Feature

All the features in the game revolve around the cascading system. During each cascade, the meters at the top of the field are filed and they offer various effects. Wins involving a kind of symbol fill up the meter corresponding to that symbol.

If it’s high-paying the symbol doubles its value. If it’s a low paying one, that symbol gets excluded from the game to make way for more high paying symbols.

Finally, collecting three crowns activates the game’s extra spin mode where 10 spins are awarded.

That’s all when it comes to features, and it may look a little thin on paper. But when playing the slot, it creates a feeling of expectation as the player chases that big chain cascade in which features will be activated and big prizes won.

Our Take

Red Tiger is known for its innovative takes on classic games, and here they have knocked it out of the park yet again. Taking something as simple as a classic fruit slot and reinventing it for the 21st century by adding popular features is the right move as it creates something engaging and interesting that punters just shouldn’t miss.
