Get Fruity Slots
You've played them at the arcades, you've played them on your desktop computer, and now you can play them on your mobile phone or samsung tablet device. Slot machines are becoming increasingly optimised for mobile platforms and this is no more evident than with this classically themed game by Nektan.
Get Fruity provides players with some straight up retro spinning action at their fingertips with 5 reels, 9 paylines and a feast of juicy fruit symbols. There are also a few special features such as wilds, scatters and free spins to help you win on the move.
A Fruity Spectacle
Spinners need not doubt the quality of the graphics provided by this mobile tailored game, because the graphics are just as good as any slot machine which is playable on your windows mobile device. That said, the visual effects of this vintage themed slot aren't exactly overly demanding. The symbols are all 2D in design, taking on a timelessly retro aesthetic which is clean and simple yet bright and colourful. In fact, all of the classic fruit machine icons are on show, such as cherries, oranges, plums, lemons, bells, bars and sevens.
Thumbs at the Ready
As this is a mobile slot machine, you will obviously have to get those thumbs out to operate the spinning action. The first thing that you will notice is that the game screen is a lot less cluttered than your usual desktop slot game – which helps to keep the gameplay simple while optimising the smaller screen space available.
Before you spin, you can tap the “Stake & Lines” option to the right hand side of the reels, after which you can scroll your thumb to set the preferred wager. You can choose to have 1 payline in play, all 9, or any number in-between. The possible stakes per line are 0.01, 0.05, 0.10, 0.50 and 1.00. Therefore, the most that you can wager for any one spin is capped at 9 coins. Spins can be spun by tapping the circular arrow symbol, or you can arrange to have up to 100 “Auto Spins” if you want to give your thumbs a rest!
Juicy Wins
Get Fruity states in its “Menu” that the Return To Player percentage is 96.34% - a reasonably decent return if you ask us. As for the pay out values, punters could end up spinning themselves a jackpot which is worth 2,500x the value of the bet per line if they happen to find five “Get Fruity” watermelon icons in a row. Even finding two of those symbols will return a line multiplier worth 10x. The five-in-a-row pay out values drop rapidly, however, as you go down the pay schedule with 7s offering 1,000x and bells 750x. The fruits are next on the list: oranges will pay out no more than 500x, lemons up to 300x and plums will give 150x. You will also find a 150x line bet multiplier for five triple bars while double bars reward 110x and a single bar makes for 50x. Five cherries also offer a 50x line bet multiplier.
Find the Jester's Hat
Even though this slot machine is devoutly retro in style and design, it does mix things up a bit with a couple of bonus features. There is a wild symbol, for example, which will replace all other paying game symbols to complete winning sequences. This icon is depicted as a jester's hat and it can prove to be very useful indeed to help you find those payline combinations. However, when three wilds symbols are involved in a winning line, only the highest value win will be paid.
Some Fruity Freebies
There is one more icon left to mention – the “Free Spins” symbol – which, believe it or not, offers some free spins! In fact, 10 free goes of the game will be triggered whenever three or more of these symbols appear on the reels. They don't even have to align on an active payline since they operate like scatters. There is no direct payout value for these “Free Spin” icons, but they could lead to some stake-free juicy winnings, especially since they can be retriggered indefinitely.
Retro and Modern Together in one Slot Machine
This game lacks a few gameplay elements which many slot machine players will be accustomed to, such as a gamble game or a special bonus round. However, the aim of this game is to simply thrill players with some classic spinning action which has every potential of leading to some monetary wins. And Get Fruity achieves this objective without fault. Plus, the fact that the game is specifically optimised to be enjoyed on mobile platforms makes it a very attractive option for players who want to play a vintage calibre slot machine on twenty-first century technology.
