An absolute beauty of a slot machine designed by Quickspin. As you fire it up the visuals and sound effects are insanely entertaining. As a matter of fact, the game looks so good that at a first glance reminded us of Hearthstone, a computer game developed by a gigantic developer in the industry.
The 5x3 grid holds 9 active paylines and features a 5625x maximum payout. Furthermore, the game's theoretical RTP percentage sits at 96.05% with a quite decent hit frequency. Arcane Gems features adjacent pays, meaning that once the player hits at least 3 identical and connected symbols, they will pay regardless of their position on the screen.
The slot doesn't offer free spins or bonus games, however, it has a few special gimmicks which are rather interesting. The blue diamond is the top-paid symbol of the game followed by a variety of precious stones. Lowest paying symbols are the playing cards suites.
ARCANE LOCK FEATURE
Highest winning combination of at least 3 identical symbols is held on the reels for a re-spin. The re-spins continue until no new identical symbols land on the vacant areas of the reels.
ARCANE MULTIPLIERS
During the Arcane Lock feature, the X areas on top of the reels become active and will display various multipliers values. For each reel which fills up with the identical locked symbols, a multiplier between 2x and 5x is awarded.
PROS
- Great payout potential.
- Entertaining.
CONS
- No free spins or bonuses.
