Stepping Diamonds

Stepping Diamonds Slot Review

How often do you come across fruit-themed slots? Probably not enough, thought Play'n GO. Stepping Diamonds makes it clear that diamonds are the key to big wins, especially when it comes to the Hold and Spin feature with tempting jackpots. Visually, the slot doesn't stir the mind; it's another fruity frenzy with familiar symbols like horseshoes and sevens, set against a rather unremarkable background. Fortunately, it's not all as ordinary as it seems.

Info

Let's start with the classic 5x3 layout offering 20 paylines. The maximum RTP sits at a modest 96.2%, while the medium volatility ensures manageable risk for equally moderate rewards. The betting range is also pretty standard, spanning €0.10 to €50 per spin.

Bonus Feature

Notice how the reel counter at the top can display numbers from 1 to 5 on each spin. Landing a special Diamond symbol will trigger the Step 'N Win feature. When activated, all Diamond symbols on the reels increase their values by the number shown on the counter. Only one special diamond can appear on the grid during this feature.

Additionally, landing 6 or more Diamond symbols will activate the Lock 'N Spin feature. The size of the grid depends on the number of Diamonds present at activation: 6 Diamonds unlock a 5x3 layout, 7 unlock a 5x4 layout and 8 unlock a 5x5 layout. You'll start with 3 re-spins, and any new Diamonds that appear will lock in place and reset the re-spin counter to 3. Filling the entire grid with symbols will trigger the Step 'N Win feature on the 5th step of the counter. Beyond the standard Diamond symbols, you can also look forward to Cash Pot Diamonds offering incredible rewards of up to x1500 your bet.

Verdict

At first glance, it's clear that Stepping Diamonds isn't quite the standout release we'd typically expect from Play’n GO. While the Step 'N Win feature adds a bit of excitement to the routine, it's unfortunately not enough to make this a truly remarkable release. The maximum win of x4000 is decent, considering that Diamonds Cash Pot will please you more often. Overall, the game doesn't bring anything particularly innovative to the table; it's just another fruit slot that the market is full of. However,  if you're a fan of the genre, Stepping Diamonds could still be a solid choice, in fact, the potential rewards aren't bad either.
