Diamond Storm Demo Slot - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Introduction

Diamond Storm is a five-reel, three-row online slot game with 20 fixed paylines.

This title is a fairly classically styled online slot, with traditional fruit, bar, bells and the lucky seven symbol appearing in crystallised variations here.

Watch out for the multicoloured crystal, which is wild and substitutes for all symbols with the exception of the spin scatter symbol. The scatter symbol holds the key to the free spin bonus game, which comes with an escalating multiplier. As your free spins tick down, the multiplier rises.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

There is no real storyline here, Diamond Storm is an old school online slot.

At first glance, graphics seem a little dated, but the animations and colour scheme look brilliant. Win animations are bright and leave you in no doubt as to which symbols have provided you with the win.

Diamond Storm has a very busy-looking screen, with lots of emphasis on flashing lights should you win on a spin. Anyone with any photosensitive conditions may wish to avoid this title!

Sound-wise, the main soundtrack comes across almost like a techno remix of the Countdown Theme. Sound effects are clear and well balanced. It is possible to turn either sound effects or music off, giving you a good level of control over what you hear.

Diamond Storm RTP and Variance

Diamond Storm has an RTP of 96.01%, which is a shade above average. Medium volatility means that there are big wins to be had here, but these will require patient play.

 
How to Play Diamond Storm

1. A great way to get started with any new title is to take a look at the paytable. The paytable details the winnings which are returned when matching winning combinations of symbols on paylines, as well as providing information about paylines, bonus features and some key game rules. You can find the paytable by clicking the menu button at the bottom left of the reels, then clicking the 'i' icon on the menu which appears.
2. Also in the settings menu is the ability to mute sound, music or both.
3. Speed up reel animations by clicking the turbo button, which looks like a flaming speedometer towards the bottom right of the reels.
4. You can change the bet amount by clicking the poker chip in the right-hand corner of the screen. Swipe up or down to set the line bet level, or click the max bet level to set your bet at the highest possible level.
5. To spin the reels once, click the circular spin button towards the bottom right of the screen.
6. To automatically spin the reels, click the autoplay button directly to the left of the reel spin button. This allows you to select the number of spins you wish to run consecutively.
7. Please play Diamond Storm responsibly. Set a budget for your session. Only gamble with money that you can afford to play with, and play for fun.

Bet Sizes & Paytable Wins 

The bet size in Diamond Storm ranges from 0.20 per spin (0.01 line bet for each of the 20 paylines) to 90.00 per spin (4.50 line bet for each of the 20 paylines). Bets are available at a range of different levels between minimum and maximum, so players can select the most appropriate level for their budgets.

Matching five of the lucky 7 diamond symbols on a payline gives a win of 200x the line bet

Matching five of the triple bar symbols on a payline gives a win of 100x the line bet

Matching five of the double bar symbols on a payline gives a win of 60x the line bet

Matching five of the single bar symbols on a payline gives a win of 40x the line bet

Smaller winnings amounts are won if three or four matching symbols appear on a payline.

The wild symbol substitutes for any symbol other than the spin scatter symbol.

All 20 paylines run concurrently, so it is possible to win more than one prize per spin. All winnings are totalled before being added to your bonus.

Diamond Storm Bonus Features

Landing three or more spin scatter symbols on the reels triggers the free spin bonus. Three spin symbols trigger 10 free spins, four spin symbols trigger 15 free spins and five spin symbols trigger 20 free spins.

During free spins, a win multiplier will be shown above the reels, which increases as the number of free spins runs down.

Diamond Storm Review: Our Verdict

The core game in Diamond Storm is engaging enough, with enough bright lights and sound effects to keep players interested. The bonus game, however, is where Diamond Storm comes alive, with a different soundtrack and rising multiplier which can bring you bigger winnings as your free spins progress.
