Play Hot Fruits for Free

Seeing as everything about its looks are simple, it makes sense that this basic quality has been applied to every inch of the game, turning the interface into a seamless joy with which to play with. If that sounds too good to be true, it really isn’t, it’s just the no nonsense software of the brand.

To place a bet you need only select either the increase or decrease widgets, stylised with the universally recognised plus and minus symbols. Depending on which one you select, your stake will steadily increase until it maxes out at 50 credits, a reasonable but large sum of money for a lot of people.

Although you may be put off at the thought of playing with such funds, bear in mind that the amount of cash you can win is dependent on your bet. This happens in a lot of slot machine, but players are left out of the loop, gaming without knowing what could have awaited them if they’d done their homework. We do the gritty work so you have all the facts in front of you.

Once you’ve sorted out your punt, you can select whether to game with the Auto Start or the Spin widget - both start the reels turning, but the former does so on a continued cycle, only ever stopping for a win or loss. Some games allow you to set how many rounds you wish to play, but Hot Fruits doesn’t. Not that it matters all too much, as you can stop the option whenever you want if you find it doesn’t help your gaming experience.

The last helpful toggle to explore is the Show Lines one, and it’s a very basic control. When you select it it will highlight all the paylines on the reels, showing you where and how they fall. Why is that helpful, you ask, well it informs you of how easy or hard it’s going to be to make the combinations, which in turn can help you determine the amount of money to bet with.

Hot Fruits doesn’t go to town with special features; it only has a scatter available to players, which doesn’t actually reward anything other than money. That’s right, you’ll get no free games with this slot. While this would normally cause us to shake our fist at the screen, we found we actually enjoyed the lack of bonuses, leaving the 5-reels to do all the talking rather than extras needing to up the ante.

Out of all 8 of the icons, the 7 is the most rewarding, reaching dizzying heights of 50,000 coins, though this payout will only apply for those playing with the maximum bet. If you’re playing with a small bet of 1 credit, the total figure will look more like 1,000, which is still good but nowhere near as impressive.

Hot Fruits did it for us in a big way. It came to life from the moment it started spinning, bringing vintage magic to our devices as it scrolled through all those endless possibilities. It won’t be an activity for everyone, but it doesn’t need to be, for it’ll be loved by those that appreciate it properly.
