We Check Out the Tasty Looking New Fruit Party Slot From Pragmatic Play!
Mr Green Casino will be adding the newest Pragmatic Play slot titled Fruit Party to their casino on the 28th of May 2020, along with the Hot to Burn slot, which gets released on the 21st of May.
The Fruit Party slot is a 7×7 grid-based cluster pays machine with added multipliers on the symbols; initial impressions seem to be that this slot seems like a fusion of the popular Sweet Bonanza slot mixed with some gameplay elements and the colourful fruit theme of the Jammin Jars slot from Push Gaming.
Winning combinations are formed by landing matching clusters of 5 or more symbols anywhere on the grid; these wins, once awarded, remove the symbols from the grid and tumble down with new symbols being added from the top. There is also a chance of special multipliers being added to the symbols.
These can multiply together to create much bigger wins. The more matching symbols that form a cluster, the bigger the wins, and when multipliers are connected, this can quickly boost the wins!
The main bonus feature is triggered by landing 3 or more scatters anywhere on the grid; additional scatters award extra starting free spins; during the main bonus round, the added multipliers are much more frequently added to the symbols and allow for some crazy multipliers that can go up to 256x!
Given that the top paying symbol can pay 150x without any multiplier, you can see that landing this along with Multiplier that also multiplies together can quickly provide some insane hits. There is a max win limit enabled on this slot for this reason!

Overall Opinions
The Fruit Party slot from Pragmatic Play is a reasonable release that will appeal to players who already enjoy the grid-based style of tumbling reels slots, the gameplay is slightly disappointing, and even with high variance, there isn’t the same level of suspense and anticipation that is found on slots such as Jammin Jars where you can see the multiplier wilds moving around the screen.
Instead, you are just hoping that when the symbols tumble into view that they already have multipliers on the symbols. In our playtests, we also struggled to get wins over 100x, so whilst this does come with a high variance volatility rating, we struggled to really see this slots full potential in our playtests.
Certainly, this isn’t a Jammin Jars beater of a slot release, but it should still appeal to fans of grid-based slots who want some decent win potential!
