After Nero’s Fortune and Diamond Duke, it’s time to greet another fun and thrilling release by Quickspin, a Swedish software company with a recognizable style and charisma when it comes to slot development.
The studio is getting ready to launch Arcane Gems on June 9th featuring a typical 3x5 configuration with high definition 3D graphics and special features. Its plot is based on a treasure box filled with diamonds, jewels and other valuable riches, while Arcane Lock Mechanics and Multipliers provide wins up to 5,625x total bet.
Quickspin’s next trendsetting video slot is taking players on a journey in the deepest of jungles, where they get to hunt for some bling – Indiana Jones style. To navigate the treasure box and compile a fruitful collection of riches, one must focus on Lock Mechanics, as they are triggered whenever a winning combo is made. During this mode, the board will lock in place high value symbols and pay out other prizes instantly.
Furthermore, the respin will continue until there are no more locking symbols in game, ultimately leading to cashout. Again, filling a reel with locked images will assign a random multiplier between 2 to 5 and bring new rewards to players, but the maximum of wins can even be raised up to 25x if the entire screen is covered with locked symbols.
Clint Andersson, producer at Quickspin, explained the creative process behind Arcane Gems and stated the following:
“The game contributes with a whole new standard of rendering graphic fidelity in a game for the portfolio. Initially, the story behind the game comes from one of my personal favorite 3×5 slots, but the game is old, and I wanted to add improvements to it while still maintaining the true feeling of the original.”
Andersson added that the team took some inspiration from AAA-produced games to create Arcane Gems, adapting the style of it for players with preference to casual gaming. It goes without saying that the company’s designers and developers used only the latest technologies and standards for web rendering, thus increasing the richness of symbols and their value.
“The game is made fully in 3D and boasts cool features such as the Arcane Lock, which locks symbols of the same type and Arcane Multiplier, where a random multiplier is given to the player any time a reel is locked which adds for extra excitement,” concluded Andersson.
In spite of studio’s current engagement with Arcane Gems, there are already plans to launch another hit on July 14th, named Vampire Senpai. The producer is once again bringing a colorful and blooming world like in Nero’s Fortune, only this time it’s filled with undead creatures inspired by the Chinese folklore. Notwithstanding, the supplier’s design team has also interwoven a bit of comedy into the story, enriching its darker theme with plenty of suspense, anticipation and good humor.
The game’s mechanic is enhanced with eye-catching effects, Jiangshi Wilds, Talisman Wilds and a 5x5 layout. In addition, players will be able to trigger 7, 9 or 12 Reanimated extra spins by landing 3, 4 or 5 scatters anywhere on the board, increasing their chances of forming a stronger win potential.
