Theme – riches forged in fire

The theme in the Gems Inferno Megawyays slot game is clear from the title. It’s all about gems, diamonds, emeralds and everything else in between. The reels are set in what looks like the underworld, with a firey background. The symbols on the reels are bold and stand out.

The soundtrack is dramatic and sort of hellish if that makes sense. It’s very suspenseful, but the audio only plays as you’re spinning the reels. If you don’t hit the spin button for a while, the audio is quiet until you hit the spin button again. Land the bonus feature and the audio speeds up a little to add to the overall intensity of the game. It’s fairly basic but it works well.

On the reels, the A-10 Royals are the lower-paying symbols. These are joined by higher-paying rings, necklaces and crowns. The crown symbol is the most lucrative, paying 0.6, 0.8, 1.2 or 1.5 x stake for 3, 4, 5 or 6 in combination.

The game’s Wild substitutes for all symbols. The scatters are the gem symbols, which can come in all shapes and sizes while offering different monetary values up to 2,000.

Gems Inferno Megaways mobile

With Red Tiger producing all their games with the latest HTML5 technology, the Gems Inferno Megaways slot has been fully optimised for play on desktop, mobile and tablet devices. With all the moving parts, a larger screen is preferable but it’s still perfectly playable on smaller screens. This includes devices using iOS and Android operating systems.

Gems Inferno Megaways Bonus Features

There are 3 bonus features in the Gems Inferno Megaways slot game. You’ve got gems that can land anywhere and offer instant cash prizes, you’ve got the Gem Sack feature and the Gemmed! feature where respins come into play. Let’s run you through how everything works so that you can fully understand what’s going on.

Gems

Gems can land anywhere on the reels and they are special instant cash scatters that come with a prize. Here’s what you could win:

• Magic Gem = 1x, 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x, 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 50x or 100x
• Diamond = 10x
• Red Diamond = 50x
• Pink Diamond = 250x
• Blue Diamond = 2,000x

It’s only possible for 1 Pink Diamond and 1 Blue Diamond to land on a single spin in the base game or the bonus feature. The prize displayed on the Magic Gem is shown as a monetary value based on the stake multiplier awarded. All other gems display the actual multiplier. But it’s important to note that Gems will not award their case prize until 6 or more land on the reels to trigger the Gemmed! feature.

Gem Sack

Gem sack scatters can only land on the horizontal reel, as shown in the above screenshot of the base game action. After it lands, a gem sack randomly drops up to 3 gems of any type into random positions on the reels.

Gemmed! Feature

Land 6 or more Gems on the reels to trigger this bonus feature. It’s essentially a Hold & Respin bonus round and you will start with 3 respins. All of the gems that triggered the bonus feature will stay locked in place, and any new ones landing on the reels will reset the respin count back to 3.

It’s possible for the gem sack to land on the horizontal reel during this bonus feature too. This means that up to 3 more gems will be added to the reels in random positions if this happens. But note that the gem sack does not lock in place like the other symbols once it lands.

The bonus round will end 1 of 2 ways – either once the respins have hit 0 or when the entire reels have been filled with gems. All cash prizes from the gem scatters at the end of the bonus feature are then added up and paid out to you.

Gems Inferno Megaways Summary – bling without the bling

There isn’t too much going on in the Gems Inferno Megaways slot game in terms of bonus features and the RTP rate is below average as well as the maximum win, which sits at 2,553.2 x stake. Although there are a few negatives to be aware of, the positives include volatility levels that are not maxed out and the gem symbols, which can have instant prizes of up to 2,000 x attached to them.

The 2,553.2 max win is very low to be honest, Especially when you compare it to similar slots on the market. Playtech’s Honey Gems slot is a different kind of slot but there are plenty of gems on the reels. The 2,500 x max win potential there isn’t that great either but it’s higher than this slot at least.

Overall, I like the theme here and the gameplay, but I just wish the max win was higher and there were 1 or 2 more bonus features. Feel free to try our demo first and decide for yourself whether it’s a game you want to use your own funds on.
