Big Time Gaming brings us a 6-reel, 3-row video slot with 5, 625 ways to win. Unlike other releases by BTG, which run on the MegaWays slot engine, this one uses the new Triple Action engine.
Theme
This slot takes us to outer space and it has a strong 80s feel to it. The background reminds us a lot of old arcades, where you set off to space to fight aliens. The grid is somewhat transparent with a background featuring a beautiful nebula.
The slot is quite colorful and it adorably reminds of Starburst. The sound in this slot has a solid synthwave sound, emphasizing the 80s vibe.
The feedback from the player base is mostly positive, stating that it is one of the most interesting games by Big Time Gaming recently.
Betting Options and Functions
Big Time Gaming’s Opal Fruits runs on the Triple Reaction game engine, in which you can benefit from 3x multipliers in the base game. With that out of the way, we can now talk about what makes this game so great.
A slot game would not be complete without an AutoPlay button. You will be able to set a desired number of autospins and select which events in the slot will cancel the AutoPlay option…
…you will always be able to cancel the AutoPlay option by pressing the stop button which will replace the play button while the AutoPlay option is on.
This Big Time Gaming slot has 6 reels and 3 rows with 5,625 paylines. We can see two extra reels, thanks to the Triple Reaction engine.
The minimum bet in this slot is 10 cents and the maximum is $20, making this a medium to high variance slot.
The lower-paying symbols are represented by the typical A, K, Q, J, 10 and 9 royals. The higher-paying symbols are represented by fruit; pears, plums, watermelons and grapes with the grapes being the highest paying one out of the bunch, paying you up to 50 times your stake…
…the symbol with the wild feature on it is pretty obvious and it can substitute all other symbols, with the exception being the scatter.
There are two types of wilds in thig game! The regular wild will appear in the base game and in the free spins feature and acts as a substitute for other symbols. The x3 Multiplier wild will appear only in the base game. This wild multiplies will multiply itself on different reels, possibly resulting in a great amount of x50 combinations.
Also, this game utilizes the reaction feature, a gameplay feature that blasts away the winning symbols and replaces those with new ones, all until a new winning combination lands on the reels.
The theoretical RTP for this game is 96.75%.
Features
The two types of wilds will definitely keep you on the tip of your toes but Opal Fruits comes with a Free Spins feature as well. This feature is triggered once you land 4 scatter symbols which spell out the word FREE. The feature starts with 10 spins and a x1 multiplier and every reaction will increase the multiplier by 1…
…once the multiplier count reaches a multiple of 10 (x10, x20, x30) the Free Spins feature will be triggered again and award you with 5 additional spins.
And that’s not all. If you trigger this feature with a scatter, you will get a x5 boost on the multiplier instead of adding 5 extra spins. Any additional scatters you land after this will give you a x10 boost!
Summary
Big Time Gaming combined all the ingredients a slot needs in order to make it. A bit nostalgic theme combined with fun-filled gameplay and a potential for substantial winnings will definitely win the hearts of many players. Being light on the bonus features part, this game offers a breath of fresh air.
