Reel Gems Slot
It would appear that Microgaming must have been a little bit in a cloning frame of mind when they decided to design and launch the Reel Gems slot game, for to be perfectly honest it is quite similar, apart from its theme to many other slot games they have designed and launched!
The basic structure of the Reel Gems slot is as a 243 ways to win slot game and like many other similar slots from Microgaming if you want to play it you are obliged to pay 25 coins or an increment thereof to send the reels spinning with all 243 ways to win in live play.
However, that does make it one of their cheaper All Ways slots to play as most of the other ones require a minimum stake of 30 or even 50 coins before you can send their reels spinning!
Where to Play Reel Gems…
There are wild symbols which can be spun in to help you form standard reel symbol winning combinations, but those reel symbols are only found on the second and fourth reels.
Free spins are the only bonus game feature round that you will be able to trigger when playing this slot and to do so you have to spin in three or more of the scatter symbols, which is the fairly standard way of triggering those types of bonus rounds.
The number of free spins you will initially be awarded with is 15 of them, and x3 multipliers are in play for the duration of that free spins round on which the free spins may re-trigger a number of times. The maximum free spins bonus game payout you can win is a large 120,000 coins.
All in all, you are likely to have an enjoyable slot playing session if you do decide to give the Reel Gems slot game any amount of play time, however we are often asked by players which are the better paying slots by virtue of just how high the payout percentages are on each slot game.
Whilst certainly not one of the slots Microgaming have designed with a huge and above average payout percentage the Reel Gems slot does come with a very reasonable RTP which has been as Microgaming slots are always, fully independently certified as being a slot on which the RTP has been set at 96.52%.
Final Thoughts
If you like being in full control over the stake levels and the number of pay lines you will have in play on any online slot you do decide to play or you are a very low stake slot player, then you are probably not going to enjoy playing the Reel Gems slot.
You are forced to have all of the 243 ways to win in play per spin so are obliged to play it for a set increment of coins which does of course mean you will be forced to often place a wager of a much higher stake amount when you choose to send its reals spinning!
