Illuminous

Illuminous is a gem-themed video slot powered by Quickspin. Players can enjoy sharp graphics and engaging features. Gameplay includes two types of Wilds and two types of free spins, with a top prize of $1000.

This is one of the rare Quickspin slots without a creative theme inspired by popular films, stories or fairytales. There are only various brightly colored gemstones gracing the reels, in addition to standard card deck symbols. Despite the simple look, the design is still very attractive and the gameplay offers a lot of action. Illuminous has a decent pay-table and pays quite often too. There is a lot of potential for big wins within the bonus features, and you can count on a steady stream of smaller wins in the base game.

Illuminous is played over 5 reels and 20 fixed pay-lines. You only need to choose your preferred stake from the list found below the reels. The range of bets is reasonably wide, with the cheapest spin requiring only 40 cents, and the highest possible bet is $80 per spin. Although the top prize is not very lucrative, all types of players can benefit from interesting and rewarding features, no matter the reason for play.

Illuminous Slot Special Features

There are two different Wild symbols that will boost your winning chances. The regular Wild looks like a big golden letter W, and acts as a substitute for all other symbols except the Bonus Wild symbol, which is represented as the Pink Globe. Two Bonus Wilds landing anywhere on the reels in a single spin will initiate Hot Reel Respin feature, and three or more will award Hot Reel Free Spins. Both of these features are very rewarding and relatively easy to trigger, so players can look forward to some good wins.

Hot Reel Respin

As the name says, this bonus is all about free respins. For the duration of respins, the two triggering reels (that is, the reels containing Bonus Wilds) receive a special effect called Hot Reels. Additional Wild symbols will start appearing on them, increasing your chance to hit winning combinations. Players can expect up to 3 extra Wilds. Bonus Wild is also available, and if you are lucky you can win extra respins.

Hot Reel Free Spins

You will get 5 free spins initially, but they can be retriggered with additional Bonus Wilds landing on the reels. The Hot Reel effect provides more regular Wilds for the duration of the free spins. Keep in mind that there are now three hot reels active, each having up to 3 Bonus Wilds. If the two remaining reels get extra Wilds, they too will receive the hot effect, giving you a total of 5 hot reels and up to 15 Bonus Wilds.

Our Take on Illuminous Slot

Even though the main focus of this slot is essentially one big feature, it is still a highly entertaining game. It plays fast and smooth with all aspects well balanced.
