Fruit Party Slots
Fruit-themed games abound in the slot machine world, and why not? Fruit is sweet, colorful, delicious, and, as Fruit Party shows, makes really great cocktails. This game has a decidedly retro, Vegas-style slot feel to it, from the graphics to the sounds to the generous payouts. With two types of Scatter wins and a Party Pick bonus feature, Fruit Party offers up five reels of fruity fun.
It’s 5’o Clock Some Where
As colorful as any tropical celebration, Fruit Party is sprinkled with confetti and ribbons that match the variety of fruits it showcases. Symbols begin with the lowly Lemon and continue to raise in value with the Watermelon, Grapes, Orange or pair of Cherries. While fruit is the main feature, the big-winning game symbols at the Fruit Party are the cocktails, which include a Blue Martini, a tall glass filled with a pink concoction and then a fun umbrella-garnished coconut shell beverage that also works as a general purpose Wild.
Sweet Features
Two Scatter symbols rake in similar winnings whenever 3 or more of a kind line up on 1 of the 9 winning paylines. Though the Party Scatter and the Mystery Scatter look different, they work in basically the same way, by awarding a random coin prize that can range from a minimum of 1 all the way up to 2,700.
The coconut-shell Wild symbol won’t substitute for the Scatter and Bonus symbols, nor does it fill in for any of the lower-valued fruit icons. However, it is helpful for completing combinations featuring the higher-paying cocktail symbols.
Party Pick Bonus Game
This fun little mini-game triggers fairly frequently and couldn’t be simpler. Just collect 3, 4, or 5 bonus symbols on adjacent reels and you win a multiplier based on how many symbols appear. A 1X multiplier comes with 3 symbols, 2X with 4, and matching 5 symbols will triple your winning.
In addition to that multiplier, a separate screen opens up and fun party music plays as you’re presented with a table covered with a selection of individual fruits and cocktails. Click on them one at a time to reveal a hidden multiplier. Keep clicking until the word “Collect” is revealed. At that time, all your multipliers are added up and you’re shown your total prize. This figure equals your win multiplier times your bonus multiplier, times the number of credits played and can pay as high as 2,700 credits. Also, if it turns out that the very first picture you click reveals the word “Collect”, you win all the multipliers at once.
Micro- to High-Limits
You can automatically bet on all 9 lines at once by clicking the “Bet Nine” button. You can go as low as 0.01 for your credit value, and bet only one credit per line, resulting in a minimum bet of 0.09, making Fruit Party a hit with penny bettors. On the upper end of the scale, you can choose a credit value of 5.00, bet five credits per line, for a maximum wager of 225.00. A handy little display at the very bottom of the playing window shows you at the end of each spin how much you wagered, what you won, and your net win or loss.
Fruit Roll Up
This is a fun little game for vintage fruit-loving slot fans. Simple, but cheerful, Fruit Party triggers its bonuses often enough to keep you interested for a while. Not often to penny slot players find a video slot that offers all lines for a mere 0.09 credits, so this slot gets a lot of fanfare from such players. Fruit fanatics will also want to check out Amaya’s Berry Blast, which includes free spins and a “Wheel of Fortune” style bonus game.
