Gold Splash: Toots Fruits Slot Review
Haggling is an art form and, honestly, one that I’m not all that experienced in. I thought I’d Google some of the tips and tricks to make you – and me – an instant expert so we can both save money. 💸
According to the people who know things, you should always tell the truth when haggling. Because, god forbid, you wouldn’t want to compromise on your integrity 🙄 now would you?
Timing is a thing, too, and if you wanna pull out the big guns, be prepared to play the most powerful card in your arsenal: the walk-away strategy.
Why am I going down this particular rabbit hole? It’s because of the setting for the latest game from Playtech – Gold Splash: Toots Fruits slot.
Gameplay
This is an interesting take on what would ordinarily be just an Egyptian-themed game. The setting is a bazaar with exotic fruits and other items on sale.
I reckon you’ll need to exercise your creative thinking to link up the symbols and features that you’ll read about just now with this theme. My take is that they’re selling gems at the bazaar and I’m sticking with that.
The 5x4-reel grid is big, bold, and looks great, although the colors are the same as the background, which isn’t the best choice for legibility.
Playtech has combined some of the controls, so you’ll see that the variable Turbo setting and the bet selector have been merged. The Autospin is selected when you hard-press the SPIN button and you can’t customize it as you could in some other games.
OK so check these stats out: there are 30 paylines in Gold Splash: Toots Fruits slot. The volatility rate has been set to medium/high, so the max win comes in on the conservative side, at €168,500.
If you wanna play this lighthearted game, you’ll need to do so with fiat currency as crypto is a no-go. But at least all forms of crypto are accepted.
There are a couple of symbols we need to talk about. The first is the Scatter, which looks like a watermelon (more details on what it does below).
Then there’s the Gem Drop symbol, which is a stone with 8 sides. It appears on top of any other symbol or above the reels and I’ll describe the differences in a minute, mkay?
The Gold Splash symbol (you’ll know it by its name on the icon) appears on all reels and awards a prize when the Gem Drop symbol covers it.
Features
FREE SPINS:
If you land 3 or more watermelon Scatters, that’ll trigger the Free Spins round with 6 spins to start. Gem Drop symbols can… drop in during this round and they can even be 2x2, 3x3, or 4x4 in size.
These Gem Drop symbols will be sticky but drop down one row with each new spin, disappearing off the bottom row when the feature ends.
Now, if a Gem Drop symbol lands on top of a Gold Splash symbol, the value of all the former symbols will be paid out. I say this, but I must specify that I’m talking about the Gem Drops on the reels and not those above the reels – the latter is for Jackpots.
If a large (in other words, not a 1x1-sized) Gem Drop symbol lands on top of 2 or more Gold Splash symbols, the value of all Gem Drops in view will be paid once for each of the covered Gold Splash symbols.
GEM SPLASH JACKPOT:
You can randomly gain entry into the Jackpot game when a golden Gem Drop symbol with a question mark on it scrolls across all of the reels and then drops.
This can happen on any betted amount, but the larger the bet, the better your chances. However, I need to mention that simply getting into a Jackpot game doesn’t guarantee you a win.
The types of Jackpots available in Gold Splash: Toots Fruits slots are the Minor, Major, and Grand Jackpots and they can randomly pay out 10x, 15x, 20x, 30x, 50x, or 100x your bet.
Performance
There were no issues with Gold Splash: Toots Fruits slot during testing. I gave this game the beans on a couple of browsers and devices and it was all good in the hood.
Maximum Win
You might want to sit down for this: while the max win isn’t bad at all – at €168,500 – the 337x max multiplier is dismal. And that also means you’ll need to bet at a sustained €500 if you wanna chase the top prize. Alternatively, you can bet from just €0.10.
Conclusion
Gold Splash: Toots Fruits slot is an okay game, but the paltry max multiplier put me off. The features aren’t the most riveting, but I do like the random Jackpot mechanic.
There’s a slight sense of drama when that Gem symbol floats above the reels and then drops (I only nailed the smallest win for all the numerous times I snagged it, of course).
But to close off on a positive note, the Free Spins round came around fairly regularly and the game looks good on smaller devices. So, if you’re not a seriously competitive player and want something more chilled and aren’t bothered by the multiplier, this might be an option.
