How To Play Cool Jewels Mobile Slot
There’s a flurry of games being made to fit perfectly within the mobile and tablet world, and Cool Jewels mobile slot is just that.
With easy playing games like Candy Crush, Angry Birds and Bejewelled grabbing the mobile imagination, is it any wonder that every software provider is creating their own social type casino games?
There is Barcrests’ own Bejewelled slot, of course, then there’s the Energoonz slot, IGT Bubble Craze and Playtech’s Sweet Party. Then there is the incredibly detailed Gourmet Ranch Riches from Odobo, that beats them all hands down.
And now, we have the WMS version of a 6×6 reel with exploding gems, cascading reels, and special symbols.
Can it be more than just a game, and become a really great slot machine?
Actually, the Cool Jewels slot isn’t far off
With many of these slot games we mentioned above, they concentrate too much on the game aspect, and not enough on the ‘winning’ aspect.
It’s all well and good attracting the social players who are happy to play to spin, but us gamblers need to play, to spin, to win.
And the Cool Jewels video slot is higher variance than the rest, mostly because it has some interesting multipliers and a wide variety of special symbols.
Chain reactions, special symbols and free spins
For each successive win, where the symbols disappear and you get more from above, you can have a chain reaction of wins leading to an impressive 50 times multiplier.
Now don’t get too excited, at the bottom of the run each symbol win will only be worth 0.2 coins or less. But as you climb that multiplier trail, you can get some truly great wins, especially when it feels like you’re not even paying for it.
And then you can get a chain reaction of free spins, and sit back as symbols explode each after the other. The biggest win we got is 140 times our bet, but far more hides in these reels.
Thank-you WMS
You can always rely on WMS slots to bring big hits. This one isn’t as high as many of it’s more dangerous brothers and sister, and may not look as pretty as NetEnt’s Starburst, but who cares?
It plays beautifully as both an iOS and Android slot, and doesn’t eat your budget all in one go.
There are prettier ‘social’ mobile slots out there. But none that will actually give you the kind of wins you are use to in a slot machine.
