Crown Gems Free Play in Demo Mode by Barcrest

Crown Gems review

Crown Gems is a video slot coming from Barcrest. At first look this is a simple 10 payline slot which doesn’t seem like it has much to offer. There are no Wild or Bonus symbols and the slot doesn’t come with any classic bonus features attached.

But once you carefully see what this slot has to offer and the overall payout potential it has you will notice that it can produce payouts of up to 5,000 times the total stake in a single spin.

Theme and Visual Details

The game has a Jewel theme with luxurious symbols across the reels. The visual details are not on the top level and there are hardly any animations available to give the slot a more appealing design.

Still the game symbols are enough to give the slot an aura of wealth and treasure waiting to be picked from the reels.

Gameplay

The gameplay in Crown Gems can be quite dull at times. The payouts come seldom so there’s not too much excitement on the reels.

But when a payout does land it’s usually medium or big and players can always use the Big Bet button for an instant dose of excitement.

Bet sizes and payouts

The bet size in Crown Gems can range anywhere from $0.10 to $500 per spin.

This is a medium to high variance slot where the RTP value can go from 95.05% up to 96.08%, depending whether you use the Big Bet feature or not.

Like we mentioned earlier the slot doesn’t have a classic bonus feature.

This is a 10 payline slot but what makes the game interesting is the fact that you only need 3 or more adjacent symbols on a winning payline in order to get a payout. It doesn’t matter if they start from left to right, right to left or on any other reel as long as they are adjacent one to another.

Working in favor of this design is also the fact that all of the symbols can land stacked across the reels giving the player a chance to land a bigger number of winning combinations.

The only somewhat feature in the game is the Big Bet Spins. This feature allows you to buy 5 Big Bet Spins at the cost of $20, $30, $40 or $50.

In accordance with your purchase the Big Bet Spins are played on 20, 30, 40 or 50 active paylines. This is where the biggest payouts in Crown Gems can happen.

Risking $50 on 5 spins may sound too steep for some players but the feature can pay a lot more in return considering the fact that you are playing on 50 paylines with a bet of $1 per payline.

Conclusion

At first look Crown Gems seems like a simple slot with low-level visual details and non-existing bonus features. But as in most other Barcrest slots the designers have something extra installed under the bonnet.

We can freely say that this slot is reserved for those players who aren’t afraid to risk a bigger balance in order to win more in return. The Big Bet Spins offer exactly this. You will need to risk $50 on only 5 spins, but this is when the biggest payouts can happen.
