THE SYMBOLS
Low value symbols are represented by the high end of a deck of cards, from 10 through to Ace. These symbols can offer between x0.3 and x1.5 the player’s wager, depending on the number of matching combinations that land on a single spin.
Meanwhile, spheres, diamonds, harps, sand timers and dodecahedrons depict the high value symbols, offering between x0.6 and x8 the player’s preferred stake.
Free spins scatters can also appear, triggering at least eight free spins if three or more drop in on the same spin.
THE DETAILS
This slot uses a TopHit mechanic, which places an additional reel above the board. With each spin, this top reel can reveal high value symbols or free spins scatters either partially or fully in view.
When fully in view, these high value symbols on the TopHit reel will cause their counterparts in the board below to transform into wild symbols.
As wilds, these symbols substitute for all paytable symbols, but not for the free spins scatters.
If multiple identical symbols appear on the TopHit reel, these wilds will gain multipliers that represent the number of identical symbols that landed on the top reel.
During the free spins, each symbol that upgrades to wilds due to the TopHit feature will stay persistent for the entirety of the bonus game mode. Multipliers for matching TopHit symbols will also remain active for the duration of the free spins.
Furthermore, players can buy access to the free spins feature for the price of a significantly increased bet.
WHAT THEY SAY
Mark McGinley, Chief Gaming Officer at Yggdrasil, said: “Our tenth GEM has been launched, and we couldn’t be happier. The TopHit mechanic means any spin can lead to multiple wilds landing on the reels, while this takes a whole new dynamic in the bonus round with seriously lucrative wins up for grabs.
“Boasting a max payout of x25,000, it’s a game that offers an easy-to-understand mechanic that brings a bold new flavour to the intergalactic creation.”
