Goblins and Gemstones Slot

Goblins and Gemstones Slot challenges you to unlock the Goblin Treasure Vault for unimaginable riches. This New Slot from Kalamba Games comes equipped with different features via three new unique mechanics in one big adventure that might just leave an impression.
The statistics of the game certainly indicate that the vault is bursting from the seams with gold…see if you can crack it.

Kalamba Games are one of the lesser known Casino Software Providers, developing since 2016 and on this occasion, they’ve partnered with the reputable Relax Gaming yet again for another hopefully gripping adventure.

Goblin Gold

Goblins and Gemstones Slot has obviously taken some inspiration from the Harry Potter universe here with what looks to be a spin on the famous Gringotts Wizarding Bank.

The music is certainly a little bit magical, and sounds like it could be from such a universe, and the bank itself looks to be brimming with gold. It’s a pretty nice theme, and the design quality looks high-end.

Betting and Symbols in Goblins and Gemstones Slot

Betting options in Goblins and Gemstones Slot seems pretty extensive, but whether intentionally or not, Kalamba games might have missed out on a demographic of people that prefer to play games at an ultra-low stake, as £0.50 is the lowest bet available.

It doesn’t sound a lot, but it’s enough of a gap from £0.10 or £0.20 to put people off. People who play on the higher end of the scale are okay, with bets of up to £30, and lots in between if you prefer something in the middle.

Our Goblin bankers make up the high paying symbols in this game, with the Yellow, Red and Green Goblins as the highest paying symbols.

The Scales and the Keys are also high paying, and the low paying symbols are A, K, Q, J, 10 & 9. A Wild symbol is also present in the game, and is represented by a chest.

The Base Game and Features

Goblins and Gemstones Slot uses the ever-popular ways to win mechanic. There are 1,024 ways in total, and you’ll need 3 or more matching symbols on consecutive reels, starting from the left-most reel to form a win.

Goblins and Gemstones Slot doesn’t offer too much in terms of excitement in this part of the game, but you’ll attentively notice that 3 different coloured gems are present on the side of the screen with counters on them, which will eventually lead towards Collection Spins.

Collection Spins

Accumulating Collection symbols trigger one of the Three Collection Spins Features. You’ll need 20 of each Gems to trigger them, and you’ll be awarded 5 spins

• Green Gem – This is the Scatter Split feature. In this feature, a symbol is chosen randomly to be the special symbol. These special symbols now pay anywhere, and will have variants covering only one space, while counting as 2 or 3 symbols.
• Red Gem– This is the Paired Reels Feature. In this feature, adjacent reels will be chosen, and all of them will spin in synchronisation. Showing the same symbol across all of the synced reels.
• Blue Gem – This is the Expand ‘N Lock Feature. In this feature, a symbol is chosen, and instances of the chosen symbol will appear above selected reels outside the usual boundaries of the play area, where they’ll stay for the duration of the feature. This essentially increases the ways to win in a sense.

Free Spins

Free Spins in Goblins and Gemstones Slot work the same way that the collection spins do, with the only difference being that you’ll be awarded extra spins. You’ll need 3 Scatter Symbols, which will also pay 2x your bet, and you may choose which route you go down.

You’ll get 10 spins if you choose Scatter Split, 7 if you choose Paired Reels, and 8 if you choose Expand ‘N Lock.

Extra Spins may be obtained during the bonus by landing more Scatter Symbols. You’ll be awarded an extra spin for every 1 you land.

Goblins and Gemstones Slot is a Bonus Buy Slot and may be bought by those outside the UK, all conditions in terms of the amount of spins will be the same, and it costs a rather unusual 49.4x your bet to buy your way in.

Goblins and Gemstones Slot Verdict

It’s nice to see a little bit of innovation from a game with a different theme and different features to go along with it, as well as some impressive statistics. It’s possible to win 38,890x in this game, though via which feature is unclear.

It’s nice that you may collect gems to trigger one of the features without the Scatters, although it’s a dumbed down version with less spins…but it’s certainly pivotal in making sure that the game doesn’t get boring.

There are a few gripes with the game, such as the Paired Reels feature being locked in the position it was initially set with, meaning that you’re stuck with whatever configuration you went in with, good or bad, and the expanding symbols can sometimes be really poor in what it sets you up with, and again you’re stuck with the configuration you go in with.

There’s plenty to love about the game though, if you catch it on a good day, the stats certainly back that up with what it can be capable of.

Your impression of the game I suppose will depend entirely on your experience, but try all the features if you can and decide for yourself what your personal favourite is.
