Diamond Strike-an online slot from Pragmatic Play

Diamond Strike slot is another title whose theme involves images of precious stones and treasures. This theme is ideal to draw the player's attention and alert them to the great prizes they can win. Although it is not innovative in this respect, Diamond Strike includes new features and extra features, with which it hopes to surprise its players.

On the surface, this slot resembles a classic game from the 50s, even having the fruit symbols, the classic 7 and the jewelery. However, to make the game more current, updated graphics and animations have been added, as well as interesting music and a color palette in a style reminiscent of the 80s.

The game uses the typical 5-reel model, with 15 paylines. Coins can have a value of 0.01 credits, minimum, or 0.5 credits, maximum, (also having a feature that changes between credits and the currency used by the player).

Diamond Strike is very reminiscent of the old slots that gave Las Vegas its image. However, it includes a bonus round, which gives you a unique difference.

Game symbols

As less valuable symbols we have the fruits, which all have the same value, so 4 Symbols (lemon, plum, watermelon and cherry). The cracked bell and 7 symbols have almost the same value, except that the 7 awards a bigger prize if it appears 5 times in a row. These are the “nuclear” and traditional symbols.

The bonus symbols, which assign the extra features, are the most interesting and complex, and they somehow give the soul to the game.

First, we have the representative symbol of the game, the diamond. This works as a Wild and just does not replace the other two bonus symbols. These symbols are the Golden 7, and the “FREE SPINS " symbol.

The Golden 7 is essentially the same as the ordinary 7, except that it will trigger the bonus round if it appears 3 times or more on the screen, regardless of where it appears. The "FREE SPINS" works as a Scatter, and when appearing on the first, third and fifth reels, it offers the player 8 free spins.

Bonus rounds and free spins

The Diamond Strike bonus round is triggered by three Golden 7's scattered across the screen. This round is called "Jackpot Bonus Game". In a grid 12 diamonds will appear. You will have to choose three of these diamonds and in order to win one of the 4 jackpots (which are distributed as “Mini”: 10x the total bet; “Minor”: 30x the total bet; “Major”: 100x the total bet; “Mega”: 1000x the total bet), you will have to be lucky enough to choose 3 identical diamonds, from among those that will be hidden in the grid.

During the free rounds, more free spins can be unlocked. In addition, these spins activate a feature known as the “Free Spin Feature” where extra diamonds will be added to the reels and where Jackpot bonus rounds can be triggered.

If you found the weaknesses section rather short, know that it's no coincidence. There is not much negative to point out about this game, except for some inconvenient features, but that in little change your experience. It is a well-developed game, not necessarily original in concept, but interesting and creative, being good enough to become fun for a while.
