Fruit Stack Deluxe Slots
Go back to basics with this arcade style slot machine and you will find plenty of the same exciting bonus features that you would with any big action video slot. Fruit Stack Deluxe is a new title from the Bulgarian based software company, Cayetano – a game development firm that is a wholly owned subsidiary of Paddy Power PLC.
With 5 reels, 10 paylines and a 10,000x line bet multiplier jackpot, this retro style game is provide plenty of entertainment to many a punter, especially considering that there are free spins with bonus multipliers up to 30x, a wheel of fortune style bonus side game and in-play gambles which could quadruple the size of ordinary wins.
Arcade Classic
There are classic slot machines, and then there are truly classic slot machines. We're inclined to put Fruit Stack Deluxe by Cayetano straight in the latter category going on the timeless simplicity and elegance of the game's aesthetics. Because, as the reels begin to spin, players of this game will notice that each symbol is taken straight from the arcade archive, with fruit icons such as cherries, lemons, oranges, plums, and watermelons, not to mention the customary BAR symbols presented in singles, doubles and triples.
Other symbols in the slot machine include a wild diamond icon which is particularly useful because it will substitute for all normal paying symbols to make winning sequences. However, that is nothing compared to this game's other wild icon – the golden “deluxe” symbol – which also replaces paying symbols to complete wins but will appear in large stacks on the reels to potentially trigger multiple wins at once.
Not only does this slot machine pay homage to the great classic slot machine with its choice of game symbols, but it also places players right into the heart of the action by presented the game upon a realistic arcade machine. That machine itself is set within a vibrant casino floor environment, and there are plenty of flashing lights and authentic slot machine sound effects to give spinners that true retro buzz.
Spin It To Win It
Nothing quite beats the buzz from a winning spin, however, and in order for players to spin a winner, they will have to line up at least three of the same symbols upon one of the 10 paylines which are permanently fixed upon the reels. Achieving that will result in a line bet multiplier prize being awarded, as you can see for yourselves in the following paytable:
The available wagers in Fruit Stack Deluxe are listed as overall stakes, as such: 0.10, 0.20, 0.30, 0.40, 0.50, 1.00, 2.00, 3.00, 4.00, 10.00, 20.00, 30.00, 40.00, 50.00 and 100.00. So there is sufficient room for manoeuvre to allow casual spinners and high rollers to get the most out of the slot machine. However, players should remember to divide their chosen total stake by ten to work out the value of their line bet.
Go for the Gamble
No matter how much you win in the base game of this slot machine, you will always have the chance to boost your betting balance further with a card based gamble game. Simply guess the correct colour of the face down playing card to double your winnings, or guess the correct suit to quadruple them.
Bonus Bonanza
We said that we would categorise this slot machine as a classic going from its appearance but the same can not be said when it comes to this game's gameplay. That is because Fruit Stack Deluxe boasts a number of extra bonus elements that any video slot would be proud of.
First of all, there are a couple of bonus-triggering scatter symbols to take note of – a golden bell and a “Bonus” wheel – both of which will activate their respective features when three or more appear scattered on the reels in any position. So, three golden bell symbols, for example, will initiate a round of 12 free spins with random multipliers up to 30x awarded to the wins on the board.
The “Bonus” wheel icon, on the other hand, will activate a special side game with a wheel of fortune, in which spinners can claim extra wins worth up to 250x their total bet.
Fruity and Fresh
Fruit Stack Deluxe gives the best of both worlds. The Cayetano slot machine is designed to emulate the genuine classics with its fruit machine symbols and arcade room setting but it plays like any modern video slot with its offering of stacked wilds, free spins with multipliers, and bonus side games. So, we reckon that this game is going to be very popular among retro spinners and big bonus hunters alike.
