Jewellery Store Slot
Jewellery Store by Evoplay Entertainment is a brightly coloured slot game, dominated by rich reds, golds and sparkling gemstones in blues, greens and white. As the name suggests, it’s all designed to look like we are in a shop and in common with other games from this Malta-based online casino games developer, everything is beautifully detailed. It’s got a distinct Oriental look to the store, an impression that’s enhanced by the design of some symbols.
The jewels tumble down 5 reels and return wins whenever 3 or more of the same type stop across them on any of the 10 paylines running left to right. The amount won depends on which jewel made up the winline, and there’s a green dragon that awards bonus features such as wild substitutions and free reel re-spins.
These might not be the most advanced extras, but this slot can return a steady stream of reliable wins to punters, making it a relaxing game to play without too many distractions. The elaborate design of the store will make it a visual treat anyway, and it’s one of the more colourful slots we’ve seen. A decorative gold frame surrounds the reels, glinting in the light with each spin, while shelves packed with luxury items such as necklaces, rings and even a couple of cat statues give us the impression that we are standing in the store itself.
Spinning Up Sparklers
This no download slot can be played from a minimum of 0.10 per spin, and it’s got a high limit of 100.00, although all lines are permanently active, so there’s no option to test it out with real cash bets on just a line or two. There are however, free Jewellery Store video slot games, but clearly, there’s no real winnings from trying it out this way.
The paytable lists what each different jewel is worth when it lands across a line, and spinners get 3x their line stake back when either the pearls or blue sapphire land on reels 1, 2 and 3, while 4 of a kind pays out 8x, and a full line is worth 15x. Next up, we have a green emerald and orange amber, with both valued at 5x, 10x or 25x, while a diamond ring, decorated with a tiger emblem might not look very comfortable to wear, but we’ll be happy to see it anyway, as the payouts are 10x, 25x or 60x the line stake.
A tiara with green highlights is worth 25x, 60x and 120x when landing on 3, 4 or 5 reels of a payline and the top symbol is a multi-coloured ring that returns prizes of 50x, 200x or 250x when it’s in the right places.
Wild Dragon Features
There are a few hidden surprises in this jewellery store, all of them triggered by the green statue of a dragon that can land only on the middle 3 reels. It’s a wild symbol that can act as any other if needed, completing winning lines by plugging gaps in a sequence, or extending a win of 3 matching symbols across reel 4 for a higher-value coins payout.
This is pretty standard across most online casino slot machines, but in this case the wild will also expand across any reel that it lands on, making it much easier to complete a combination. It’s got one more trick up its scaly sleeve as well, as any time the dragon completes a winline, the reels re-spin for free.
If that creates another winning combination that includes the wild symbol, they re-spin again, and should the wild be part of yet another win, a third and final free spin takes place. That’s it for the bonus features, which will suit some gamblers who like simple games with a good winning ratio, but could put off those looking for multiple bonus rounds.
A Diamond Of A Slot Machine?
Like all games from this developer, the Jewellery Store video slot is a reliable game which can be trusted to deliver some good returns. It certainly looks nice, although the theme may not be to everyone’s taste and the tinkly soundtrack could get on your nerves before too long, but it’s just a matter of personal preference.
What’s more important is the potential for landing some nice wins and while standard gameplay should hopefully see you get plenty of winning combinations, it’s the dragon symbol that delivers the best chances to get some cash back.
It’s got lots to do here, replacing other symbols, expanding and triggering re-spins. There’s no scatter symbol, which is unusual, but none is needed as this game is designed to be easy to learn and play. The only downside we could find is that you can’t play Jewellery Store on mobile platforms.
