Having recently been nominated for the EGR B2B Awards in 5 categories, hotshot game studio Swintt is picking up where it left off last month with the fresh release of its new Del Fruit slot.

The latest title to feature in the supplier’s popular catalogue of Premium Games, Del Fruit is a five-reel, five-payline release that draws its inspiration from classic, land-based slot machines. The game features an instantly recognisable line-up of fruit-themed symbols including cherries, lemons, oranges and grapes, while the higher value icons are represented by BARs, liberty bells and lucky red sevens.

The game features maximum wins of 5,000x players’ bet, a relatively low volatility level and two exciting bonus features. The first of these will no doubt be familiar to fans of Swintt’s other Premium releases and is triggered by landing three or more of the now-iconic Book scatter symbols, which also double as substitute wilds to complete further paylines.

Should players achieve this feat during any base game spin, they’ll instantly be whisked away to a new screen where a short animation will begin. Players will be presented with an open book, the pages of which will turn over one by one to reveal a Lucky Symbol. Any instances of the selected symbol that appear during the feature will expand to fill the reels, increasing the slot’s overall winning potential.

Once a Lucky Symbol is selected, players will receive an initial 10 Free Spins, with one further bonus game being added whenever a new scatter appears. Should a Lucky Symbol expansion take place, wins will be calculated from left to right on all active paylines providing the minimum number of combinations is hit, irrespective of whether or not the expanding symbols appear on adjacent reels.

On top of that classic Free Spins feature, Del Fruit also includes a secondary bonus game that is capable of awarding huge multipliers and instant payouts. Activated whenever three or more pearl symbols appear anywhere on the reels, a new mini-game will launch where players begin with three re-spins.

When the feature is activated, the triggering pearl symbols will lock in place and the reels will begin spinning. Whenever a subsequent pearl appears, it will also remain on the reels as the re-spin counter is reset to 3. The feature will only end when all re-spins have been used up or when pearl symbols completely fill the reels, at which point all values will be added together and awarded as a prize.

Being a Premium release, players won’t be surprised to discover that Swintt’s rewarding Risk feature is also available after any winning spin. An optional extra that can be activated by clicking the button to the left of the reels, the Risk feature allows players to double or quadruple the value of their current prize by guessing the colour or suit of a hidden playing card respectively. Multiple rounds of Risk can be played, with the game ending when an incorrect guess is made or the maximum win is achieved.

David Mann, Chief Commercial Officer at Swintt, said: “With their iconic graphics and casino-style gameplay, Swintt Premium Games have proved incredibly popular with slot fans all around the world.
“Our new Del Fruit slot will build on that success by providing another intuitive user experience that’s further enhanced by two rewarding bonus features and maximum multipliers of 5,000x players’ bet.”
