Diamond Blitz

Prepare for a TBT moment coupled with shiny gems on the slot from R7, powered by Red Tiger Gaming. Diamond Blitz is bringing fruit machines from yesteryear back to live on a reel set with wild substitutions, Falling Wilds and a random Blitz Mode that can lead to wins of up to 800 times your bet on a single spin.

Slot Details

Diamond Blitz is a video slot with five reels, three rows and 20 fixed pay lines. Wins are awarded for three to five matching symbols on a line from left to right only. You can collect shiny diamonds on desktop or mobile from 0.20 to 50 credits per spin. The game has medium volatility with a mediocre RTP of 93.74%, which includes the jackpot contribution and reserve. Red Tiger is known to offer a variety of RTP values and some operators might offer the game with a lower or higher setting, always check the help files to find out which version you will be playing.

That you will be taken on a journey down memory lane becomes apparent the soon you load the game as you will be greeted by a generic structured background and a traditional fruit machine game window. Equally traditional are the pay symbols on the reels, ranging from cherries and melons to bells and 7s. The design is completed with a vibrant orchestra soundtrack that is regularly interrupted by the win count noises.

All regular pay symbols can appear stacked at any time and start at the low end with traditional fruit symbols – cherries, lemons, grapes and melons – awarding 1.3x to 3.5x your bet for a single five of a kind. The premiums are bars, stars, horseshoes, bells, red 7s and ultimately the diamond wild. Hit five on a line to win 4.2x to 40x your stake. The wild substitutes for all other symbols. There are no scatters on this slot.

Diamond Blitz Slot Features

The game has clearly the jackpot chase at its core as the included features are rather simple and won’t break the bank. Central to the action are the shiny diamond wilds which will turn into Falling Wilds when they land on any reel, moving down by one row on the following spins until they drop off at the bottom. Worth noting is that the spins with shifting wilds on the screen are not free.

Watch out for lightning strikes as it announces the random trigger of the Blitz Mode. You will get 5 free spins with any wilds landing shifting downwards as well but locking in place when they reach the lowest free position. Plus, each locked wild will add +1 free spin to the tally. Once the feature is over, the sticky wilds will be unlocked and start shifting again until they disappear. A full screen of wilds will pay the maximum win of 800 times your bet.

Last but not least are the three progressive jackpots – Hourly Drop, Daily Drop and Big Drop Jackpot. The Daily Drop is time-limited and will trigger guaranteed before a set time while the Hourly Drop Jackpot is a ceiling jackpot that will trigger guaranteed before the set threshold is reached. The final and most desirable is the Big Drop Jackpot which is unlimited and can trigger at any time.

The chances of winning a jackpot are relative to your bet size. You will need to hit three jackpot symbols anywhere on the reels in one spin to start off the random jackpot game. The selector will jump between the three jackpots and will award the one which stays highlighted at the end.

Final Verdict

Well, Diamond Blitz is not a hardcore slot, nor will it break the bank as the math model will get you plenty of playtime for your buck. It almost felt like playing Starburst for a moment, feel-good gaming with no big win potential. However, there is a distinct difference, the three progressive jackpots. The main one can easily go past the one million mark, so worth winning any time of the day or year.
