Exploding Fruits

Slot machines based on symbols like fruits and BARs have been around for over a century now, and simply taking that theme and molding it into an online game does not guarantee that something good would come out of that endeavour. 

However, the developers at Evoplay Entertainment are renowned for their creativity and innovation, and those qualities were surely put to the test when designing Exploding Fruits. It’s basically a video slot that takes fruits way up into space and blows them up. Sounds like loads of fun, right? 

Theme

This is probably one of the most creative reinterpretations of a classic fruit slot machine, taking the usual cherries, plums, grapes, oranges, watermelons and lemons way up among the stars. The paytable of Exploding Fruits also has the vintage BAR and Lucky Number 7 symbols, in line with the theme. 

However, the whole thing is spiced up by a spaceship that sits below the reels and shoots towards the symbols from time to time. The design of that bit was most likely inspired by the classic video game called Space Invaders, a huge hit back in the 1980s.

The soundscape is exactly what one would expect from such a fruity space utopia, nice futuristic sound effects coupled with an enjoyable electronic music tune. 

Betting Options and Functions

There are just 3 reels and 3 rows in this slot, with 27 ways to win available. Basically you need to have matching symbols on any positions on the three reels to form a winning combination, that bit is quite simple. 

This title has medium volatility, while the return to player percentage is 96. The game was developed using HTML5 technology, so it should run smoothly on any mobile device as well as on your desktop or laptop. 

Features

So far it looks like an extremely simple and even boring slot, right? Well, that is definitely not the case, because there will be plenty of action keeping you busy while spinning the reels. 

Firstly, every winning combination will make the spaceship shoot those fruits and blast them into stardust, they disappear and other symbols drop in their place. That can lead to avalanche wins, which are quite enjoyable in any shape or form. 

Moreover, each winning combination will add some juice to the Energy Bars that you can see on either side of the reels. Each symbol that disappears from the reels fills one notch on the bars, and if you get enough cascading wins to fill the meters all the way up you will travel to a new galaxy! 

That would be the Galaxy of Free Spins, a very special place in space where you get to enjoy three free rolls! There will be an extra row added to the reels, with a pair of Ultra Joker symbols added on either side. Those are basically Sticky Wilds, replacing any icon in the game to help you form more winning combos. 

That increases the ways to win from the regular 27 to a hefty 64, as the Ultra Jokers give you the chance to form winning combinations of five symbols during the free spins round. The maximum prize that you can land during this feature is 831 times the stake. 

Conclusion

Exploding Fruits is yet another innovative video slot from Evoplay Entertainment, they have taken an overused and boring set of symbols and created a game that is both entertaining and surprising. 

The simplicity that comes with the 3x3 layout is nicely complemented by the avalanche wins mechanic, while the Free Spins round with Ultra Jokers will definitely produce lots of fun along with substantial prizes.
