Before you go bursting these bubbles, you should adjust your betting range. By clicking on "Total Bet" button you can set the coins denomination which ranges from 0.25 to 100. By clicking on "Autoplay" you will set the reels turning automatically without interruption for a chosen number of times. Just above autoplay button you will see "Spin" button which will set the reels in motion.
Wild symbol is wrapped in a rainbow-colored bubble, and it can substitute for all symbols except for the bonus symbol. Also, if you land 5 Wilds you will get 500 coins.
Blast bonus feature is triggered when you land 2 or more Bonus Wild symbols. During the bonus sequence all adjacent symbols to a Bonus Wild symbol will be blasted away in a wave. After the blast, new symbols will fall down to fill the empty slots and create new chance for a win. When there is no more Bonus Wilds on the reels, the feature will end.

Jewel Blast is another variety of Quickspin's Illuminous and some other similarly based games, having both regular Wild and Bonus Wild symbols, but without any Scatter symbols and without any Free Spins feature game. What the game offer is only the Respins feature when 2 or more of the Bonus Wild symbols appear on the reels. Basically the same, but Jewel Blast plays in a different way - blasting away adjacent symbols when appearing in any winning combination, and letting new symbols to drop into place to create new winning possibilities, ala Gonzo's Quest game. Personally, I like this kind of play, so this Jewel Blast game was indeed enjoyable for me to play, in a way.
What wasn't as enjoyable was the paytable, typical of all Quickspin games, with extremely low win values for all the regular symbols. In this instance, the regular Wild symbols pay slightly better, but still having a very low 20x the total bet amount for getting 5 of them, and the Bonus Wild symbols can only substitute for all the other symbols, nonetheless, meaning having a maximum win value of 20x the total bet. The regular symbols start at 2x down to just 0.4x the total bet for getting any 5 of them, so these values really sucks!
Even though Jewel Blast is nothing more than a simplistic game, but playing it can be exciting indeed, especially when lots of those Bonus Wilds keep appearing on the reels during each respin! I've had several rounds of those Bonus Wilds appearing, blasting away adjacent symbols, followed by more Bonus Wilds coming down onto the reels, so the respins kept on going for several rounds. Sadly though, no thanks to the blardy low paytable, the payouts that I've gotten so far have not exceeded 100x my bet amount, but I'm pretty sure that this is not impossible to achieve - just needing more and more plays on the game.
Nonetheless, I personally find that this Jewel Blast game is worth giving at least several tries, but not hoping to get any big wins from it. Quickspin game designers made sure that no big wins could be won by any player, unless playing with ridiculously big bets per spin! The amount won may be big, but the win ratio would still remain small! Well, I do like playing the game, but I don't think I would spend more money on it. There are many more better paying games out there, but none from Quickspin! Hehehe.
