Extreme Fruits Ultimate - Review for Canadians, Demo Play & Payout Info

Extreme Fruits Ultimate review: introduction

Extreme Fruits Ultimate features some truly dazzling symbols, each ringed with fire and ready to burst into flames! Since this slot is fruit machine themed, expect to see high-paying clovers, bananas, grapes and cherries followed by oranges, blueberries, lemons, melons and strawberries. 

There is also a bell scatter, which pays out in any position; however, it is the expanding wild that steals the show and makes Extreme Fruits Ultimate a must-play game. The wild is a barrel with a lit fuse. When it lands, it can explode, bathing the reel in flames and covering every position.

The wild is not only spectacular but also serves a purpose that is much more than just cosmetic. By filling multiple positions, it links symbols in new combinations and can award much larger wins. Add to this an excellent 20 paylines and a top win of 5,000x that is awarded during the base game rather than being hidden away inside a bonus game and you are guaranteed a wild ride on Extreme Fruits Ultimate.

Best of all, you can leap into the action of this and other Playtech slots right here at Slots Temple.

Theme, graphics & design

The best way to describe Extreme Fruits Ultimate is as a fruit themed slot that has been supercharged! All the traditional elements of a classic slot are here, but they are multiplied close to infinity. This makes Extreme Fruits Ultimate a sensory bombardment that more than lives up to its name!

For a start, the background is bathed in flames. The colour scheme is visceral and the action appears to take place against an exploding supernova, with fountains of fire burning bright red against an otherwise black backdrop. Entire reels catch fire when the expanding wild comes into play.

Even the paylines are illustrated with a slash of flame. Playtech has done a wonderful job by keeping things simple. The neon-drenched fruits, flaming background and high energy, spacey soundtrack are proof that games don’t always need extravagant animations or heaps of bonus features to stand out.

Extreme Fruits Ultimate RTP and variance

The only information we had available when we wrote this review related to the top win, which is 5,000x. The RTP and variance remain a mystery; however, Playtech slots are often medium-high volatility. This should give you some idea of what to expect.

How to play Extreme Fruits Ultimate

Even though Extreme Fruits Ultimate is a classic slot, it can still be intimidating to beginners. These hints and tips will get you started:

1. Extreme Fruits Ultimate conveniently places all the relevant information on a single screen, so press ‘info’ to learn about the bonus features, the paylines and the paytable.
2. The bets are easy to adjust. Just use the purple arrows underneath ‘total bet’ to tweak your wager.
3. Turbo play can be selected if you want to speed up the rounds.

Bet & win sizes

The minimum bet on this slot is 0.20 and the maximum is 500. Extreme Fruits Ultimate doesn’t include many bonus features, which inevitably shifts all the emphasis onto the paytable. This means bigger standard line wins, the highest of which is 5,000x for five clover symbols.

The full paytable for five matching symbols is as follows:

- Clovers = 5,000x
- Bananas = 1,000x
- Grapes = 1,000x
- Cherries = 250x
- Oranges = 250x
- Blueberries = 250x
- Lemons = 100x
- Melons = 100x
- Strawberries = 100x

Extreme Fruits Ultimate bonus features 

Extreme Fruits Ultimate might be termed a ‘bonus lite’ slot; however, this isn’t necessarily a bad thing! It just means that extra effort has gone into the bonuses that it has, so let’s take a quick look:

- Golden bell scatter

Although not a bonus feature per se, the scatter is nonetheless notable for its ability to pay out from any position. This makes the symbol exceptionally versatile and takes paylines completely out of the equation.

- Expanding wild 

A barrel complete with glowing fuse is the wild in Extreme Fruits Ultimate. When this symbol appears, there is a chance that it will explode and cover an entire reel. This, of course, means more positions covered, multiple combinations, and hopefully some bigger wins!

Our verdict

Extreme Fruits Ultimate packs a massive visual punch. It blazes onto the screen in an array of explosions and fiery colours, and the action only intensifies as you start spinning.

Our favourite feature is the expanding wild. Not only does it look spectacular as the reel bursts into flames but also it promises some big combinations and great wins if you get lucky. We also loved having the top win of 5,000x available in the base game rather than buried in a bonus.

This injects much more tension into every spin and ensures that the standard gameplay isn't devalued at the expense of bonus features. Extreme Fruits Ultimate rewards players simply for spinning; in doing so, it harks back to the days of much simpler games.

The Extreme Fruits 20 online slot is also part of the Extreme Fruits family, so we recommend taking it for a spin!
