Colossus Fruits Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

Colossus Fruits is a slot developed by Spinomenal with a conventional fruit machine theme. New Spinomenal demo slots appear every few weeks and their range now covers games of all levels of complexity, from the sophistication of Spinomenal's Year of the Monkey slot all the way through to games like Colossus Fruits. This growing portfolio of free slots is an impressive body of work. 

The layout of the reel is unusual. The 3 inner reels are bigger than the outer 2. It also turns out that the giant symbols which are mixed in with the standard ones will give you massive pay-outs.

Colossus Fruits uses 5 reels with 3 elements high on reels 1 and 5, and 4 symbols high on reels 2, 3 and 4, with 30 paylines. The stake size is from 0.01 and to 10.00.and the bet size ranges from 0.30 per spin to 300.00. There are 9 regular symbols, Lucky Seven, Bell, Watermelon, Bunch of Grapes and Cherries, plus ace to jack. The special symbols are wilds and free spins. All medium symbols have 2x2 and 3x3 versions across reels 2, 3 and 4. All wins pay left to right. Only the highest win on each winning line is paid. Wins are multiplied by bet per line.

Theme, Graphics and Soundtrack

Colossus Fruits is the epitome of pared-down traditionalism. The backdrop is a deep purple with the merest detail of an irregular spot pattern. There is no context beyond the interior world of the game, no characters, no incidental animation either to enhance or detract from the game itself.

The reel grid is just as simple, with very literal representations of the different symbols set in clean rectangular frames. There is extremely limited animation, the most striking being the way the symbols are set ablaze when you land a winning combination. There is a fairly dramatic effect when you hit the free spins, with the rest of the screen darkening and a rising tone from the sound effects system. 

The soundtrack doesn’t offer anything special. It’s hard to be inventive when there is no special theme and Spinomenal have simply opted for an inoffensive, slightly jaunty piece of muzak, indistinguishable from most other games that fall into this bracket.

Colossus Fruits RTP and Variance

Colossus Fruits Bonus Features

Any of the high symbols - Seven, Bell or Fruits - may appear on the 3 reels in the middle of the grid and fill 2x2 or 3x3 blocks. If any of these appears on the outer reels, 1 and 5, a large pay-out becomes very likely.

Wilds

A wild symbol substitutes for other symbols to complete a winning line. Five wilds across one payline will give you back 150x your stake. Stacked wilds can appear during any spin, on any of the 5 reels, increasing the chances of winning combinations.

Golden Bonus

One or more Golden Bonus Symbols can land at any time. At the end of a spin each Golden Bonus Symbol will reveal a prize which you receive immediately, whether or not you have landed a winning combination of other symbols. Golden Bonus Symbol pay-outs are not large, but they do guarantee a prize.

Free Games Feature

Free spin symbols can appear on reels 1 and 5 to launch a free games feature. You get ten free spins and you will see a prize box in the idle of the screen. Any win multipliers or extra free games that you are awarded will show inside the prize box on each free spin.

Buy Feature

If you do not wish to wait for the free spins round to trigger in the normal run of play you have the option to buy a free round. When you are playing with the minimum stake of 0.30 the function will cost 9.90 and at the maximum stake of 300.00 per spin the cost to buy will be 9,900.00.

Colossus Fruits Review: Our Verdict

There are some interesting extras in Colossus Fruits, particularly the Mega symbols function and the Prize Box and as retro fruit-themed slots go it holds its own. But at the end of the day it doesn’t offer much beyond the familiar elements of games in this field. Fun for a while but nothing special.
