Play Lemon Cherry for Free

To match the simplicity of the gameplay, the team at Novomatic have given this game some very basic design features. A plain black backdrop with a yellow border to each reel and the game title above is pretty much all the visual flair on offer, and the symbols are just as straightforward. This no-frills design suits the style of the game and should appeal to gamblers who like older fruit machines. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the series of sound effects that accompany each spin are just as old-school.

A review of the pay table of Lemon Cherry reveals what each symbol combination is worth when you land at least three of a kind across a line. If you see three cherry symbols across a payline, you win just three times the line stake, with four cherries worth a prize of ten times and full lines worth 15x. Lemons are valued at ten, 25, or 75x the per line bet when seen on three, four, or all five reels. The only symbol remaining is the bronze-effect number 7, which pays out 20x, 50x, or 100x the amount you have on each payline.

Having just three symbols on the reels would make it a little too easy to land winning combinations, so you will also see lots of purple diamond-shaped symbols. These are not worth anything, and their only purpose in life is to fill out the reels. Any wild symbols? Nope. Free spins? Nope. Mini games? ‘fraid not. This slot is all about the simple mechanics of spinning up regular wins, without any real distractions.

There is, however, the option to gamble each win. After each winning spin, you will be given the choice to ‘Take’ the prize or click the ‘Risk’ button which opens up a second screen. It’s a classic gamble feature that will be familiar to many players. The aim is to click on a red or black button as a face-down playing card flashes between the colors, doubling the initial win if you get it right and losing it if you get the timing wrong.

You can keep doubling the amount over and over until the gamble high limit is reached, or when you get a wrong pick and lose the round. It’s a game of chance really, as the card is flipping between red and black so quickly that there’s not much chance of predicting the right color.

The command buttons are in an equally simple style as the rest of the game. You have a wide range of bet options though, with real cash wagers starting at just 0.03 per spin and going up to a maximum of 30.00. That might not be enough for serious high rollers, but it should be fine for most of us. There’s the option to play free Lemon Cherry video slots right here on this page, but there isn’t much to learn from the fun mode.

The ‘Auto’ button sets the reels spinning on their own for as many times as you like. But in keeping with the very simple nature of this game, you can’t decide beforehand how many automatic spins to activate, nor set any limits that will stop them. Just click the button again when you want them to end.

Although much of this slot machine looks like something from the last century, you can play it on all the popular mobile platforms, since it’s compatible with Android smartphones and tablets, iPhones, iPads and Windows devices.

The easy gameplay of Lemon Cherry is replicated across a number of slot machines. All That Cash from High 5 Gaming is another five-reel, three-line game that has some basic symbols in play. Instead of pieces of fruit and sevens, this game uses banknote symbols to create winning combinations.

If you insist on fruit symbols, then perhaps Purple Hot from Casino Technology would be more your style. It has five paylines but very similar symbols to Lemon Cherry, including the cherries, lemons and high-paying sevens. There’s also the small matter of a progressive jackpot, which is yours to claim if you land a full payline of sevens in any spin. Players only qualify for the jackpot feature at wagers of 2.00 or above and with all paylines activated. But even without the progressive feature, this is a fun, reliable game that Lemon Cherry fans should check out.

You’ll probably know whether you want to play this game or not as soon as you see it for the first time. Some gamblers are put off by the simple fruit symbols, but everyone should at least give it a chance. It might not be very complicated, but that’s the whole point of slot machines like this one.

Just spin the reels and start collecting regular payouts at online and mobile-optimized casinos which feature Novomatic games, and you will soon see why games such as the Lemon Cherry video slot have remained so popular for so long.
