Gem Hunter Released By Inspired Gaming
Inspired Gaming has quite a few niche slots to its name and Gem Hunter may join their more obscure releases. This pokie seems to have mashed together a few themes into one experience and it certainly stands out amongst pokies released so far this year.
The lead character is the Gem Hunter from the title and he spends his time looking for treasures in an arctic wasteland. While hunting for gems our hero also needs to protect himself from roving packs of wolves who only see the Gem Hunter as a moving meal.
These wolves make up 3 of the reel picture icons along with a collection of valuable gems, a crossbow and trap, the Gem Hunter’s backpack and the game’s logo. The game logo makes out the most valuable symbol in the game and has a 100 coin jackpot prize.
The Pokie Design Features
Gem Hunter features a pretty standard 5×3 design for the pokie reels but Inspired Gaming has used 30 paylines across them for more chances of a win for players. The RTP is pretty low, topping out on 95.01% but the 250 000 jackpot is a very attractive proposition.
Gem Hunter’s off the wall design will definitely give it a fringe fan base but its bonus features will endear it to a wider audience. For a start there is random reel modifier feature. During any spin up to 3 reels will be filled with stacked frozen symbols which can reveal matching icons. These will only be standard reel symbols not bonus symbols.
For high rollers Gem Hunter includes a bonus bet feature called the Fortune Bet. When active you wager 50% more per spin but the bonus icon becomes a stacked symbol, giving you more chances to trigger the bonus feature.
Find Your Rewards
The main bonus feature in Gem Hunter is a free spins game. The name Gem Hunter refers to the fact that at the start of the game 3 symbols are chosen which will become the free spin triggering symbols which you must then attempt to land on the reels. The wild symbol will be limited to replacing these three symbols on the reels.
The wild will however become an expanding wild whenever it appears on the reels. When the free spins feature is active only the 3 chosen reel symbols will appear on the reels making your winning opportunities increase exponentially. Gem Hunter offers a unique pokie experience for players and as such it is perfect if you are burnt out on popular themes. Give it a few spins and see for yourself.
