Slot Features
King of animals, the Lion is the Wild symbol in the game that is able to sub in for all the symbols to help form win combos, except for the Scatter and Bonus Diamond symbols, and it appears in the base game only. However, Wild with the Multiplier attached will appear in the Free Spins only and when it occurs it will double up the win which it helps form.
Free Spins
Savannah is the Scatter symbol that will trigger Free Spins symbols when you land at least 3 of them anywhere on the reels. Once gathered you will get awarded with 8 Spins to start the feature with the chances of landing Multiplying Wild that will double up the wins created.
Bonus Game
Diamond is the Bonus symbol and if you land 6 or more on the same spin, you will trigger the Bonus round. Bonus symbols will display the random value taken from a predetermined set that ranges between x1 and x16 the bet. All Bonus symbols will stick to the reels during the feature and only bonus symbols will appear.
Once the feature starts, the round will award 3 respins, and every Bonus symbol that lands will reset the counter back to 3. The feature will run until you either run out of respins or the entire grid is filled with Bonus symbols.
Bonus Jackpots
The game features 4 different Jackpots and three of them can land as a part of values in the Bonus game only as a different coloured diamond. The Red Diamond is Major jackpot, Green is Minor and Purple is Mini jackpot. Landing one of these will award a corresponding Jackpot, and if you fill the entire grid with diamonds, you will get awarded with the Grand Jackpot.
Mystery Symbols
Multi-coloured Diamond will appear on the grid only during the Bonus game and when it hits it will randomly transform to one of the Jackpot Diamonds. There is a chance that several Mystery symbols can land throughout the round, and their value will be revealed at the end of the feature, one by one.
Summary
Lion Gems: Hold and Win is another beautifully designed and awesome looking animal-themed slot with the hold and win mechanic featured, but that does not make it anything less interesting than any other slot with this mechanic if nothing more it is even more interesting because of the twist added in the form of a Mystery symbol. Max payouts could be a bit higher if you ask us because it’s capped at the Grand’s Jackpot value of x3000 the bet, but it’s still worth a couple of spins especially if you are not an adrenaline chaser.
