The Ruby

This is a rather classic slot, with a NEW look to keep it fresh. There are plenty of features to keep the game interesting, though of course the game is still all about luck and rolling those reels!

The style is pleasing, and the general game qualities adhere to the iSoftBet standards. Though the game is not necessarily revolutionary by any standard, it still manages to present the player with a rather fresh feeling.

Enjoy the fruits and spin the reels.

Theme

The diamond has been replaced with a ruby. Otherwise, what you will find on the reels here are the classic symbols:

• Sevens
• Bars
• Bells
• Stacks of cash
• Cherries and…

Some other traditional images to inspire that old-school vibe most seasoned players can appreciate.

There is no music to speak of, but the sound effects are effective enough to banish the silence that has no place in a slot game. Both are of your usual quality when it comes to fruit machines.

Betting Options and Functions

The game fits well on mobile devices. The interface is easy to use, and all the usual options are one click or touch away.

You can mute the sounds, spin the wheels, set auto-play options or adjust the bet straight from the screen. The latter offers a range between 0.30 and 30 coins per spin.

For a classic game…

…this slot has quite a few pay-lines: thirty in total! All of them run from left to right. Three to five matching symbols will result in a win. There are eight basic symbols and five of these pay out rather miniscule wins. The three top symbols pay between 150 and 600 times the line bet for a five-symbol combination.

Features

The wild replaces any symbol except for the bonus symbol and the ruby. The Ruby on Fire feature fires at random during any normal spin. This will transform between one and three reels into wilds.

On the reels that are not wild, random symbols can transform into wilds. As you can imagine, when this feature fires wins are almost guaranteed. Likewise, the variance is quite high which makes the special features necessary for big wins.

Three bonus symbols will launch the MAIN feature of the game:

This is a simple round where the player gets one random bonus among many. Possible options include all the jackpots: ruby, topaz and cherry.

You can also win up to 100 times your total bet, or land up to 10 bonus games as well as an immediate win of five times your total bet. The jackpots in this game scale with your bet. During the bonus games, there are some additional options, such as extra wilds and instant wins.

Our Take

The Ruby is a solid slot that is worth having a look at. Classic slots are often unfairly labeled a bit too simplistic. While this is true to some extent, there is potent charm in simple games, and this is especially true for vintage reel spinners.

In this case, everything simply seems to fall into place. You know exactly what you are getting here, which is a chance to score some big wins IF luck is on your side.
