Play More Like a Diamond for Free

The More Like a Diamond video slot is still a bit of a mystery, as there is only a little information available from EGT about how the game will work. However, we imagine players will naturally compare the new game to the original machine that this one is based on, especially since some of the early promotional material suggests that many of the features will be similar. Multi-denominational play should ensure that everyone from casual low limit gamblers to high rollers can get a taste of the action, and we also expect that a free slot games version will go up on the company’s website when the machine goes live.

In terms of gameplay, this is going to be a five reel game with up to 40 paylines of action. In fact, this may be the main difference from the first title in this series; that machine only offered 20 lines to bet on. Otherwise, we expect things to be fairly similar: you will still need to make matches of identical symbols from left to right across your paylines in order to earn wins, with a variety of rare and valuable stones making up the bulk of the icons. The more you match, the more you win.

Wild symbols can also appear on the middle three reels, offering the ability to substitute for any of the normal icons in order to complete winning paylines. But these aren’t ordinary wilds: instead, they will expand one space to their left and their right. This will frequently result in wins of four-of-a-kind or longer, making these substitutes a very welcome sight. There’s also a scatter that can earn prizes if you can find three or more anywhere on the screen. Finally, a gamble feature gives gamblers the opportunity to double up their winnings at the risk of losing everything earned on the last spin.

The More Like a Diamond video slot isn’t going to blow anyone away with an incredible list of innovative features. In fact, there’s not even a free spins game, nor any traditional bonus round – though if it is anything like the original, the random progressive Jackpot Cards game will probably be included as a part of the action. That makes this a great option for those that like the five-reel design of modern online slots, but would prefer not to have all the added features and special symbols that can cause new games to feel bloated.

It seems likely, then, that this won’t be a unique creation, but rather an updated version of one of the company’s best games, with the added lines possibly being the main difference between the two. If that’s the case, you may want to play the free Like a Diamond slot machine in order to get an idea of whether or not this new version will appeal to you when it is released later this year.
