Game Overview

If you are an old-school slot player, online games with fruits, 7s, bells, stars, and diamonds will likely be up your street. Of course, you don’t have to be a golden oldie to play slots with these symbols, as they never went out of fashion, sticking around since the days of one-armed bandits. Today’s review brings these symbols back to life once again as we check out JDB’s 2023 Fruity Bonanza slot release. It comes with a fruity-diamond theme, 6 reels, 2,025-32,400 ways to win, and modern features that give you a chance of netting up to 5,330x your bet.

All 6 reels use a shapeshifting feature, producing a different number of symbols on each reel every spin, and after every winning spin, the reels cascade. Plus, an additional 4 symbol positions run horizontally across the top of the slot. While you spin, you’ll have a shot at 3 fixed jackpot wins via the Hold & Spin bonus game, where the Fruity Bonanza slot’s max win resides. And to add more flavour to the gameplay, there is a free spins bonus round with a bonus buy option and red 7 wildcard symbols.

Are you ready for some old-school fruit and diamond action on a slot with modern reel mechanics where you’ll have the chance to land big wins via two bonus rounds? If yes, give the Fruity Bonanza a test ride before you get into the real money action using the demo slot version below.

Fruity Bonanza Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols

Fruity Bonanza paytable

If you have ever visited a land-based casino or high street slot shop, fruit and diamond-themed slots are a dime a dozen. Moving forward into the online slots scene, classic slots to modern Megaways titles have adopted the symbols of the old into the iGaming environment of the new! You will also find other similar diamond-themed slot titles in the JDB Gaming collection, including Lucky Diamond. Plus, if you enjoy the gameplay JDB Gaming offers, you can try some of the brand’s latest title releases, such as their Treasure Bowl slot and Pop Pop Candy.

Before that, let’s look at the Fruity Bonanza slot paytable. As you have likely already guessed, combination wins, and bonus triggers come via fruits, 7s, bells, stars, and diamonds. Keeping in with the gambling theme, there are also the familiar A, K, Q, J, and 10 symbols, often used as the lower-paying symbols on most video slots today. The five highest paying symbols are the bells and fruits. Bells pay 100x your spin bet, whilst Melons, Oranges, Plums, and Cherries pay up to 80x, 40x, 30x, and 25x. A, K, Q, and J symbols will dish out 15x, 10x, 10x, 5x, or 5x your total bet, respectively. If you are wondering where the Diamonds, 7s, and Star symbols fit in, we’ll get to them in the sections below.

Looking at the betting range, on the demo slot version, you have the option of choosing 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 1 or 2 per spin. However, on the real money version of JDB Gaming online slots, you’ll likely have a more comprehensive selection of betting options. Of course, these numbers will also change depending on your currency.

Fruity Bonanza Slot Base Game

If you were expecting fruit-themed classic slot gameplay, this game couldn’t be further away. There are no paylines, as Fruity Bonanza uses an adjacent reel mechanism to determine symbol combinations. For example, a 4-symbol combination win would need the same symbol on reels 1-2-3-4. You’ll also notice each spin can produce 2, 4, or 5 symbols per reel. 2 symbols on every reel give you 2,025 ways to win, and 6 gives you 32,400 ways to win. On top of this, after every combination win, the reels cascade, giving you the chance to land more wins from a single spin. There is also a Red 7 wild symbol on reels 2, 3, 4 and 5, which substitutes for regular symbols.

Fruity Bonanza Slot Bonus Features

Fruity Bonanza bonus feature

There are two bonus features that can be triggered in Fruity Bonanza. Firstly, we have a free spins bonus, activated when 3, 4, 5, or 6 scatters land in view awarding 10, 15, 20, or 30 spins respectively, and secondly, the Hold & Spin bonus, triggered when 6 or more diamond symbols appear in view.

Free Spins Feature

The free spins round plays the same as the base game, but before it begins, extra diamond symbols are added to the reels, increasing your chances of triggering the lucrative Hold & Spin feature.

Hold & Spin Feature

When the bonus triggers, you’ll play on new reels that host only red and blue diamond symbols. You begin with 3 respins, and each time a new diamond symbol appears, it will stick to the reels and reset your respins back to 3. Each diamond symbol has a multiplier between 0.2x to 30x, whilst special jackpot diamonds containing ‘Mini’, ‘Major’ or ‘Grand’ pay 5x, 25x, or 1,000x. The bonus round will end if 3 respins produce no new diamonds. At this point, all diamond multipliers accumulate into one total multiplier applied to your total spin bet.

Bonus Buy

The bonus buy button triggers the free spins bonus round instantly, with this feature costing players 50x the current bet to activate it.

Pros

Perfect for fans of fruits and diamond symbols.
Free spins and hold & win features.

Cons

The 5,330x jackpot is low for a slot with 32,400 ways to win.

Fruity Bonanza Slot Review Final Thoughts

Modern slot players who enjoy fast and furious spins with action-packed features and bonuses will undoubtedly find JDB's Fruity Bonanza slot very appealing. However, with its Megaways style of play, you'll likely have seen all it has to offer countless times before.
