Fruit Party review

Theme and Storyline

Fruit Party takes as its theme a kind of fairy tale hope-punk version of Candyland. All brightly lit and shiny fruit in boiled sweet colours.

The background world is a luminous green countryside with small houses, fairy mushrooms, and fruit trees hung with plump and juicy fruits.

It is a cheery, light hearted setting for a slot that reminds one of childhood television. And of the local Victorian style sweet shop.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

The graphics are excellent, provided you can cope with the sickly sick bright-pastels of every part of the screen.

The animations are bouncy and fun, and the music is oddly reminiscent of the Banjo Kazooie soundtrack.

Overall, the visuals are a little hard to get on board with fully, but they are executed with a great deal of skill by Pragmatic Play's designers.

Gameplay

Fruit Party is played on a seven by seven grid. Winning combos are made by five or more of the same symbol connected horizontally and/or vertically.

Every symbol in a winning group has a chance of having a x2 multiplier added to it.

Winning combos are removed from the reels and a cascade occurs where new symbols fall in from above.

Wilds, Bonuses and Free Spins

There is no Wild symbol.

The only special symbol is the Scatter symbol and three or more of them anywhere on the reels awards the player ten free spins.

During the Free Spins, 10 more free spins can be added to the total for three more Scatters. Each additional Scatter above three gets the player an additional free spin added to their total. I.e. 11 spins for four Scatters, etc...

All winning symbols can have either a x2 or x4 multiplier added to them. If more than one symbol in a winning combination has a multiplier, the multipliers are applied in sequence up to a maximum total multiplier of x256.

For example if a combination contains a x2, a x3, and a x4 multiplier the total multiplier is x24(=3*2*4).
