This Nucleus Gaming slot is quite different from their usual games. A mix between magic and mining, your sole mission is collecting those lumps of coal that might turn into valuable gems. Of course, there are plenty of other wins on the line too. As usual, the game offers quite hefty wins that can even rival some of the smaller jackpots. It’s not all about just waiting for that one lucky win though, as the normal prizes are quite enticing too.
Theme
The theme is one of adventure and exploring, even it is mines instead of dungeons. Gems, lumps of coal, pickaxes, torches and such are the featured symbols here. The music lays a bit of magic on the reels, whereas the sound effects bring forth the noise of miners at work. The background has a few animations but could use more. The theme and style work quite well both on mobile and desktop devices.
Betting Options and Functions
The playing field compromises of a seven times seven grid setup. Like with all similar reel setups, here to it means that the game uses cluster pays instead of usual paylines. This means that whenever symbols are clustered together they could as prize combinations. The maximum number of symbols is 25 or more, whereas the minimum needed for a win is five symbols.
Betting is done by selecting coin value and bet level. This means that the range is between 0.60 and 150 coins per spin. The low end of wins starts from just three times the bet and goes all the way into fifty times the bet. On the other end of the scale, with 25 symbols, you have a range of 100 to 1500 times the bet. Quite enough to be a considerable win on any slot.
Features
The usual double up gamble is present, with the same 50-50 chance to either win or lose as always. The namesake symbols come into play every time there is a lump of coal net to a winning combination. In these situations, the coal turns into rubies which pay up to 3000 times the line bet when there are more than 25 of them.
These ruby symbols are not available during free spins, but they do trigger them. A minimum of five ruby symbols are needed, and the effects stack all the way into 25 or more symbols. You can score between seven and fifty free spins.
Our Take
Cluster pay symbols are always a difficult beast. The wins can grow quite massive, but the chances of scoring 25 similar symbols on the screen are very low. In the balance of it, Ruby Jade offers quite big wins for when luck is on your side. The volatility is somewhat high, as is the minimum bet, so check out some of our bonuses to make the most out of the game.
