Fruit Slot

2019 was definitely a crucial year for iGaming industry. In addition to revolutionary releases we have witnessed, important structural changes have occurred to some providers. 

Formerly part of the GiG, and today known as Spearhead Studios, is one of the younger providers whose main goal is to boost the production of table games and slots in order to fill their catalogue.

They were one step closer to achieving their goal the moment they released Fruit Slot – a game that is special in many ways.

First of all, we are talking about roulette-inspired video slot, so do not expect to see reels here.

But wait, what happens when you hit the spin button!?

There will be a highlighted marker that will spin in circles and stop on a random position. Each of 24 positions has its own symbol and this is how you get prizes or triggering features.

Theme and Symbols

Considering the fact that we are talking about a classic arcade game, you will need to prepare for an explosion of colors.

Blinks and occasional jingles fit the theme perfectly and will keep you engaged for quite some time.

We have to admit that we have expected more when it comes to graphic solutions. The setting is pretty simple – a big machine set in front of wrinkled red drapes.

On the paytable, we have only 8 paying symbols that can be found in most fruit-themed slots - cherries, oranges, lemons, melons, stars, bells, lucky sevens and BARs.

It is well known that providers like to make the slots appear ‘’poorer’’ to emphasize the implemented content.

Is it the case here too? Stay with us and find out!

Betting Options

The betting range, set between 0.05 and 100 credits per spin, or 0.40 and 800 credits in total, will definitely fit both low-rollers and big-shots.

The maximum win that you can get here is set at 100x the bet, which isn’t that bad considering the maximum available bet.

One of the guiding ideas of Spearhead’s work is to make games that will have theoretical return to player (RTP) above 96% and here it is set at 96.84%.

As we mentioned, the game does not feature the reels. The wins will be awarded when the marker stops in a random position – the symbol on which you placed a bet or the Free Spin icon.

Features

When the marker stops on the Free Spins icon, you are awarded an extra re-spin. This may certainly be disappointing to you, but do not rush to conclusions.

On the positive side:

There are always 2 Free Spins icons on the grid which increases your chances to get that re-spin, and in the testing phase, we found that it was not difficult to obtain it at all.

Our Take

Well, shall we?

Fruit Slot by Spearhead Studios is definitely a special title. It plays like a standard roulette and has a pretty high RTP.

Some of you may think that it is totally not worth a spin because of its low paying potential or the lack of certain features, but...

...we must disagree!

Although we are aware of the potential drawbacks, we think that this offering is much needed as it represents a successful reincarnation of some highly popular classic slots.

On the other hand, if you can’t forgive all those stuff, then we suggest to check out other reviews of Spearhead Studios releases such as Midnight Madness or Book of Souls.
