Other than having a retro-focused design, Gem Blast puts the focus on - you guessed it, GEMS! It’s very satisfying to see the gems disappear in a laser of light when you make winning combos. Endorphina went with a simple yet refreshing design that seems to take place somewhere in the Great White North. We come to this conclusion as we can make out what seems to be the Aurora Borealis in the star-studded night sky.

The grid is almost non-existent, with only a slim sliver of neon purple to separate the reels and to outline the grid. Although it features gems instead of the traditional fruits, Gem Blast features gems in their place with the familiar BAR and Lucky 7 designs but in gem form.

The exterior doesn’t look like much when you give this game a glance, but let’s take a look at the figures to see the potential wins this game can yield.

Gem Blast Details

The 5×3 grid in Gem Blast will give you about 10 paylines. It doesn’t look great, but the 1,200x your payout as the maximum jackpot is acceptable for these numbers. The lower jackpot makes sense once you take into account the betting range of only 0.05 to 20. You can’t expect super high wins when the betting range is quite low.

Gem Blast wildAs for the RTP or return to player, you’re looking at a very neat 96%. Endorphina knows how to give you just enough to keep you going. You need a minimum of three symbol matches to create a winning combo, but we suggest aiming for more if possible since we know a lot of slot games are greatly hinged on luck and betting more.

The more you bet, the more you win, and the more winning combos you land, the better the prizes will be.

Gem Blast Features

For simple and sometimes overdone designs and themes, a way developers make their games stand out is to utilize different mechanics and to implement different features. So let’s take a look at what Gem Blast has to offer in terms of bonuses.

Similar to the old-school throwback slots, the Bars and Lucky 7s are the top grossing symbols, so you should cross your fingers and hope you land a ton of them. Ideally, landing five of each will get you either 500 or 1.000, respectively.

Its ability is the same as with most slot games, and it can replace regular symbols to increase your winning combos. However, be aware that the star symbol will only appear on the middle reels, in other words, reels 2,3, and 4.

One more thing the star symbol can give you is the respin feature. You can activate this game bonus when the symbol expands, but you can only get a max of 3 respins, so this part isn’t the moneymaker.

To keep things interesting, Gem Blast does have a bonus game where you play against the dealer by getting a higher card. It’s a gamble because you can take your wins from the first game and count your blessings or continue to rake in more wins. But keep in mind that you lose it all in subsequent tries if you lose.

Verdict

If you are someone looking for a simple design with straightforward features, then this is the game for you. There are no fancy mechanics that you will struggle to understand, just plain and simple winning combos and a bonus game. All in all, Gem Blast is a more modern take on a retro game that is definitely worth your attention.
