Reel Gems Deluxe Slot Review

How to play

Reel Gems Deluxe video slot has 20 paylines that are fixed. It also provides either a quick bet feature or an advanced bet feature. The quick bet feature simply allows you to choose between different preset values. Alternatively, the advanced feature allows you to select precise values using sliders. The minimum bet is €0.20, and the maximum bet is €100.00. 

This video slot from Alchemy Gaming also has five reels and three rows in each reel. The game controls are easy to understand, and you can see the radiant trail icons down the left-hand side of the game. We also like that this game has a simple autoplay feature. It doesn’t have advanced options, but you can choose from 10 and 100 spins.

In the game settings, you can also turn on or off the quick spin option to speed up the reel animations. At the bottom, you can also see your current account balance, and your current bet value together with the previous winning combination. 

Symbols and payouts

In the Reel Gems Deluxe paytable, there are just 8 basic symbols and 2 special symbols. The basic symbols are different cards and different precious gems. Of these, the low-tier icons represent the cards - these are a jack, queen, king, and ace. 

The jack has the lowest multiplier of the paytable - 3x of this symbol, and there is a 5x bet per line multiplier. In contrast, the Ace has the highest multiplier of 35x for 5x symbols based on the bet per line.

The high-tier symbols are a blue gem, a green gem, a red gem, and an orange gem. The orange gem has a fantastic multiplier of 300x for 5x symbols and represents the highest basic paying symbol in the game.

This classic slot also contains two unique symbols - the scatter symbol and wild symbol. The scatter symbol gives free spins, and the wild icon replaces all other symbols except the scatter. Both of these also have a payout multiplier of 2000x and 1000x respectively for 5x symbols based on the bet per line.

Best Reel Gems Deluxe bonus feature

The Reel Gems Deluxe bonus feature is the radiant trail. This has several features including the radiant respin and Reel Gems Deluxe free spins. You can win 5, 7, or 10 free spins if you get 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols. Also, the radiant respin feature may trigger randomly during any spin. During this respin, a random symbol is activated on the radiant trail and stacked on reels 1 and 2.

As you progress through the radiant trail and activate the different gems, you are granted a multiplier listed on the symbol. For example, the orange gem provides up to a 300x multiplier.

RTP & volatility

The Reel Gems Deluxe RTP is 96.36%. This is pretty good and sits just above the benchmark figure for online slot games which is at a minimum of 95%. In terms of volatility, Alchemy Gaming has not currently listed any volatility rating for this game.
