Description
Haven’t we all played and loved classic fruities?
Think of Fruit Bonanza as one of your five a day! A fruit-themed game is always stacks of fun, especially when it also has four progressive jackpots of different sizes. This progressive five-reel slot has three rows with a maximum of nine Paylines.
A Play’n GO release, available across all casinos listed as leasing this operator’s software, it’s cast in the traditional mould, and some have found it somewhat lacking in the Wilds and bonus features side of things. But you should find the sheer quality of the game, designed to work across mobile devices, makes up for that.
How to play
How to Play Fruit Bonanza
Fruit Bonanza has been praised for being a realistic-looking game which plays heavily on nostalgia and old-school charm. Its colourful reels curve away at the top to look like a physical machine. Equally, the classic slot-game sound effects only serve to heighten this impression.
Meanwhile, the lush green background is full of climbing plants, and, of course, plenty of fruit.
You’ll see eight symbols in all, four fruit-related ones including an orange, cherries, strawberry and pineapple, alongside four luck-associated icons such as bells, horseshoes and four-leafed clovers.
And you can bet up to five coins on a single Payline.
The Scatter icon is clearly the most important one – it’s the word ‘Scatter’ on it that gives it away! Meanwhile, the jackpot symbol is the Horn of Plenty. This apparently depicts a fruit tumbling from a giant shell.
Customise your play
Decide whether you want to try Fruit Bonanza for free, or play for real money. Choose how many coins to bet, and the number of active Paylines.
Play for a number of times without stopping thanks to the Autoplay feature. Use Bet Max to turn the reels at the maximum bet.
Bonus features
Win progressive jackpots by turning the reels using the maximum number of coins. Landing five Horns of Plenty on the ninth Payline bags you the Super jackpot. But the Bonanza, Juice and Fruit jackpots are also all up for grabs.
Here’s what you need to get to win those (in descending order of value):
- Bonanza jackpot – Five Horns of Plenty on any Payline other than the ninth
- Juice jackpot – Four Horns of Plenty landing on any active Payline
- Fruit jackpot – Three Horns of Plenty landing on any active Payline
Return to Player
In Fruit Bonanza, admittedly the Return to Player or RTP is a little low at around 93% – although we don’t reckon that’s reason enough not to play.
Verdict
While many reviewers have been full of enthusiasm for Fruit Bonanza, one or two others have described it as being a little bland and somewhat lacking in excitement. Equally, the wager is quite high in return for relatively low chances of a win.
But, of course, there’s only one way of knowing for sure: try it out for yourself!
