Aztec Gems Deluxe (Pragmatic Play) slot review

Aztec Gems Deluxe slot (Pragmatic Play) is an entertaining slot that takes you on an adventure in the Aztec jungle.

Aztec Gems is set in the Aztec jungle, where you’re hunting for gems and masks. Luckily we see some beautiful tree leaves and the rainforest in the background. It’s comforting to know you’re not lost.

Pragmatic play loves to boast its successful features, once in a while.  So also now, with the Money Respin Feature. It’s indeed a compelling feature, we have seen before with Pragmatic Play’s blockbuster Wolf Gold or Pyramid King.

The slot tops it off with four jackpots.

I’ll tell you all about it below.

Aztec Gems Deluxe slot – Gameplay and Features

Aztec Gems Deluxe has 9 fixed paylines and 3 reels with 3 symbols per reel.

The symbols are the five gems (red, purple, green, blue and yellow).

Furthermore, you have a Wild symbol (Golden Mask). It replaces all symbols except the Money symbols.

The Money symbol is a kind of face on a blue background. But if it were a stamp of the 19th century, I would have believed it.

Money Respin Feature – cash prizes and jackpots

Here’s where the real action is.

You activate the Money Respin feature, if you get (in 1 spin), at least 4 Money symbols. You’ll notice that all Money symbols have either a cash prize or one of four jackpots.

The jackpots consist of the Mini, the Minor, the Major and the Grand Jackpot. These are good for wins of respectively 25x, 100x, 500x and 1000x the bet.

Now you get at least three respins. The Money symbols you already spun remain; all other symbols disappear.

When you spin a new Money symbol, the respin counter is reset. So only if you fail to spin a new Money symbol for three consecutive times, will this feature end.

At the end of the feature, all the money wins, and jackpots are added together. You may add that total to your balance.

Continuation Money Respin Feature – an additional multiplier or a wheel

If you are lucky enough to fill the entire screen with 9 Money symbols, you get either:

• An extra multiplier.
• A spin on a giant wheel

With that extra multiplier, you may multiply the total value of all Money symbols (including the jackpots) by x2, x3, x5, x8 or even x10. Yes, that is indeed incredibly lucrative.

If you don’t see the multiplier, you get a giant wheel instead. Now you can win additional cash prizes of 18x, 28x, 58x, 88x, 108x, 128x, 188x, 288x and 388x. But it is also possible to land one of the four jackpots.

In short, there are plenty of options to boost your balance!

Payout percentage (RTP)

The RTP of Aztec Gems Deluxe is 96.5%, which is fine.

Aztec Gems Deluxe slot – a medium to high variance

According to Pragmatic Play, the variance of Aztec Gems Deluxe is “medium to high” (score is 4 out of 5).

I expect that most top wins will be around 1,000x to 1,200x. The Grand Jackpot is good for 1,000x the bet, and it’s not only there for decoration.

The max win of a blistering 22.500x? Forget it, unless you do a billion spins yourself.

Pros and Cons

Advantages:

• The Money Respin Feature that we have seen in Wolf Gold continues to appeal.
• Great win potential.
• The slot plays fast and easy.

Disadvantages:

• You’re not going to land the sky-high wins.
• Graphically it’s not bad, but I would not say it’s excellent either.

So, who’ll like the slot/ And who won’t?

This Pragmatic Play slot is straightforward to play and easy to understand. Many players love it.

The slot, strangely enough, has something attractive and exciting, thanks to the Money Respin Feature.

However, players who are looking for massive wins won’t find them here.
