Ripe Rewards Bonus Features

Though there are not a lot of features over here, Wild Multipliers in the Base & Bonus FS Game and Free Spins are at your disposal. 

Wild

The Wild lands anywhere on the playfield in the Base and Bonus Game. It pays x15 by the stake for 5 such symbols on the win line. Yet, the most beneficial specialty of this picture is its ability to replace any other paying symbol in winning combinations. Moreover, each Wild comes with a randomly chosen Multiplier (x1, x2, x3, or x5) that applies to the prize of those winning sequences it is part of. On top of that, if there is more than one Wild in the winning sequence, their Multipliers are summarized before utilization.

Scatter

The Scatter (The Three Sevens) lands only on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th reels. You will need 3 simultaneously landed Scatters to start the Bonus Game. Yet before Free Spins begin, the player gets a reward (x2 by the stake) just for the appearance of those 3 Scatters.

Free Spins 

The initial number of Free Spins is 7. Yet, there is a possibility of extra FS provided:

The Scatters during the Bonus Game are gathered by the special right-positioned meter. As you have noticed from the table above, FS retriggering also causes Wild Multiplier values to rise. By the way, the Multiplier size rising isn't spread only to those Wilds that can fall during the following Free Spins, but also to the currently on the playfield ones. Therefore, immediately after getting extra FS, the Win Multiplier of all Wilds on the screen will change to the bigger value — x2, x3, or x5.

Sticky Wilds

Each Wild that appears on the playfield during Free Spins stays in the place landed at for the whole Bonus Game duration. That allows you to count on considerably bigger wins than in the Base mode.

Ante Bet

The 'Ante Bet' feature doubles the chances of the Bonus Game triggering due to more Scatters on the play grid when it is enabled. Activation of this function will cost 50% of the current bet per each spin it is on. Yet, despite overall x1.5 stake per spin, all wins will be calculated as if there is still x1 bet.

Buy Free Spins

Purchasing Free Spins is a convenient way of triggering the Bonus Game any moment you want. Using this option will cost you an amount of x100 to the current bet. 

Our Experience Playing Ripe Rewards

Before sharing with you a trustworthy conclusion about the game, we gave it a try to gain our own experience of playing this video slot using real money. For the sake of this goal, we have deposited as much as €200, planning to play 300 rounds. And for each spin, we used the €1 stake. 

During the 1st hundred spins, we did get the first Bonus Game activation. As a result, overall, 12 Free Spins allowed us to reap a sum of €126.5. Also, there were as many as 29 regular wins, varying in a broad range of €0.1 — €27.5. The most elongated pause between wins totaled 12 spins. So, upon the 100 spins, we had €310.8.

Sadly, the second hundred spins didn’t please us by FS Round triggering. Luckily, there were 30 Base Game prizes from €0.1 to €8.1. Precisely half of those turned lower than the chosen stake. As a result, after the 200th spin, we had the €261 balance.

The last hundred spins delivered as many as two Bonus Games, which earned us as much as €107.55. Also, we had 30 Base game prizes, including the two relatively big ones of €15.75 and €11.25. Sadly, 18 of those wins were less than €1. so, upon the end of the 300 spins, we had €320.2 balance instead of just €200 initially deposited. Hence, we earned as much as €120.2.

Here are all the statistics:

Our impression after Real Money Playing in this slot is most positive because of big wins that happened frequently enough during the Base Game and well-profitable Bonus Game, which also trigger sufficiently often. Within Free Spins, Wilds equipped with Win Multipliers stick to the landing place for a whole Bonus Game duration, allowing you to increase the size of your potential prizes.

Our Verdict

In conclusion, this slot looks attractive from the point of view of appearance and delivers a thrilling gambling diversion and hugely big wins up to x10,000 by the stake. Without any doubt, using Wild Multipliers looks like an efficient method to increase the amount of your potential wins, especially in the Bonus Game, where Wilds stick to the place and raise the values of their Multipliers each time when extra FS are awarded.

Yet, the most notable drawbacks of this video slot are customizable RTP value (96.02% — 94.02%) and also the fact that many wins in the Base game are less than the currently chosen stake. Although Free Spins, which are quite profitable and trigger enough frequently, partially compensate for the last con. Concerning the problem with RTP, just pick the game with the highest ‘Return to the Player’ value, and you will not be disappointed.
