The theme Reel Gems explores is likely to leave you unimpressed. Gems are pretty but what really shines here are the game mechanics. This video slot is very innovative and addictive. You will no doubt play it over and over again without realising it. So do not be put off by its simple design.

Overview

A 5-reel slot machine, Reel Gems does not use traditional payment lines. Like The Lord Of The Rings, Thunderstruck 2 and Ghost Pirates it offers instead different ways to win, 243 ways to be precise. On top of its Wild and Scatter which allows you to win free spins, its main feature is a Respin option.

Wild

The symbol with Reel Gems written across it is Wild. It only appears on the second and fourth reels and it can be a substitute for any other item in order to make up a winning combination. However, it cannot replace a Scatter.

Scatter and free spins

The ring inscribed with the words 'free spins' is a Scatter. It can make you win money if it appears 2, 3, 4 or 5 times anywhere on screen. You then win respectively 1, 2, 10 or 100 coins. On top of this, you also win 15 free spins during which you win three times more coins. During a free spin, you can win some more free spins as they are re-triggerable.

Respin

The main originality in Reel Gems, like in Retro Reels, is its Respin feature. It allows you to respin the reel of your choice after each game. This does not give you another chance as it costs you an additional bet. The amount to be bet depends on the configuration of the symbols shown. The more likely it is for you to win, the higher the bet demanded.

Thanks to this fun and original Respin feature, Reel Gems proves itself to be a very addictive slot machine. On top of this, its free spins with their x3 multiplier can be very lucrative as they allow you to win up to 120,000 coins on one spin.
