The shimmering design in Glitter Gems has an over the top feel - the reels include the usual lower value A to 9 playing cards alongside a selection of gemstone-themed symbols. In order of value you’ll see egg-shaped gems which award up to 150 coins per payline, gem encrusted dice and a dollar sign which pay up to 200 coins. Next come the purple and red 7 which award 300 or 1,000 coins respectively if you land a 5 in a row combination. Helping you to create those winning lines is the Glitter Gems logo which is the wild as it substitutes for everything bar the scatter.
The top paying symbol is the blue diamond which is the scatter - land 3, 4 or 5 of these and you’ll receive an award of 2, 10 or 100 times your total stake as well as triggering the Free Games feature where you’ll get 8 free spins. The red and purple 7s can combine to make winning combinations during the feature. Any win that includes the Glitter Gems logo wild sees the payout doubled. Landing another 3 scatters on the same spin will add another 5 free spins to your total.
Glitter Gems is a very simple game - the design certainly has a glitzy, in your face feel. This isn’t the most sophisticated imagery you’ll see. The gameplay is equally basic. The only extra on offer is the Free Games feature - the 2x multiplier is a welcome addition but this stripped back affair makes Novomatic slot games look feature heavy.
If you’re looking for a classic fruity style game with a flashy look, by all means dive in. If you’re after anything else then Glitter Gems will likely leave you a little underwhelmed. If you like gems and jewels, Fruit Spin by Net Entertainment is recommended.
