Fruit Drops Slot
As the fruits drop, your wins have the opportunity to rise. This fruit themed slot machine by Mazooma offers a unique way to spin with its special “Lock and Drop” gameplay feature, which could reward up to 5,000,000 credits worth of winnings. As such, Fruit Drops is a vintage game with a juicy twist. That said, this 5-reel slot with 10 paylines doesn't offer any conventional free spins – something which might well put many a punter off playing.
Lock and Drop
The lack of any big bonuses may be alleviated by this slot machine's unique “Lock and Drop” gameplay element. This feature is activated in the normal game after any spin reveals a winning combination of symbols, causing the symbols in question to be locked into place. The reels with then be re-spun free of charge and all matching symbols which better the win value of the already locked icons will be also be locked into place. The reels will keep on re-spinning until no more matching symbols appear to better the value of the previous win.
This re-spin element is sure to provide plenty of enthralling action. Especially since it offers the potential for players to fill the reels with 15 matching symbols – an occurrence which rewards some whopping wins. What's more, every re-spin will re-calculate the already locked win sequences. So even if you don't find 15 identical icons, you could still be in for some hefty winnings.
Fruit in Abundance
We shall not hold you in suspense for any longer, because we bet that you are eager to discover just how much this slot machine has to offer in prizes. Well, you can in fact win up to 500x the amount of your total bet if you were to find 15 of the game's most lucrative symbol – the big red 7. Fifteen watermelons will pay back 100x the total bet while grapes with offer 50x. Fifteen plums makes for a 40x multiplier, whereas oranges, lemons and cherries equate to multipliers worth 30x, 20x and 10x respectively.
Don't worry, because you don't have to line up fifteen symbols to benefit from Fruit Drops, because there is a standard pay out table. The symbols are accordingly valuable in the same order as above and five of each lined up on a pay line going from left to right will pay out the best rewards. Five 7s, for example, will pay 50x the total bet and five watermelons will pay 10x. The other fruit symbols get increasingly lower in value from here on in. Five grapes equals a 5x multiplier, five plums equals 4x, five oranges equals 3x, five lemons equals 2x and five cherries will simply pay back the value of the stake.
There are 10 paylines in play for every spin, therefore the only variable value is the size of the total bet. Even though this might seem to limit the scope for different betting strategies, there are still plenty of different wager denominations on offer. The smallest possible stake is limited at 40 credits but the options going up are as follows: 50, 80, 100, 150, 200, 300, 400, 500, 800, 1,000, 1,500, 2,000, 3,000, 4,000, 5,000, 8,000, and 10,000.
A Fruit Machine with a Twist
There are loads of classically themed slot machines in the world of online gambling, all of which are unique in their own little ways. The main differences between these retro games are often found in the gameplay department, but there is often some slight variation when it comes to visual aesthetic. Not only do the fruit symbols of Fruit Drops take on a stylised cartoon form, but the symbols literally drop into place rather than spinning in the conventional manner. What's more, the fruits will splatter and disappear using some nifty animation during the “Lock and Drop” feature.
Play Your Cards Right
Players can increase their winnings by playing a double or nothing gamble game. In fact, you can win up to 500x the size of your total wagering amount if you play your cards right. All that you have to do is guess whether a turned over playing card is black or red. Guess correctly to double your winnings and have a chance to guess again. Guess incorrectly and all of your winnings will be wiped.
In a Class of Its Own
Despite what many people might think, classic slot machines can come in many interesting shapes and sizes. Fruit Drops is a prime example of this with its unique bonus feature which gives spinners the chance to win a whopping big jackpot. There may not be any “conventional” extra elements such as free spins, but this slot machine will do just fine with its own unique “Lock and Drop” bonus action.
