Day four - Fruit Fiesta

A beautiful winter day outside. Too bad it is supposed to be spring. Before I put on my winter jacket, hat and gloves, I thought I´d play the game of the day. Today I have some revenge lust and I let the most obvious game to be my choice. Fruit Fiesta. A more classic video slot, is hard to find.

The 5-reel version of the Fruit Fiesta has a progressive jackpot, although relatively small when compared with dragons like Mega Moolah and Major Millions. But the current value of £5.544 feels like a nice win anyway. By the way, I should perhaps explain why I always write jackpots in Euro. If you find these games on other casino sites, it is not certain that it is a Euro win, since the jackpots are customized so that you win in the currency you are playing in. This is one of the reasons that we at Videoslots.com have chosen to offer Euro currency only. To maximize the jackpots! What if you play in the Swedish krona at a site and win a jackpot of 1 million. Sure, great with a million krona, but had you played with us in Euros the win would be 1 million euros instead. 9 million krona. Yeah yeah, you got it.

Now it is time for Fruit Fiesta with five reels and a progressive jackpot. When you look around in our games selection you will also find the original of this game in the "slots" section, but then the three-reel version. A true classic slot, try it out as well!

Back to the game. The bets in Fruit Fiesta are much lower than in the games I've played so far in the game of the day. You can bet as little as £0.05 if you bet one single line, and if you bet max you play 15 lines for £0.75 per spin. Just like in Major Millions the coins are fixed to one per spin. To win the jackpot you need to have bet max when you hit five Fruit Fiesta symbols I a row.

Today, it´s all in from the beginning, and I bet max at £0.75. Hits three lemons in my first spin, £0,25 win. I find out that the Fruit Fiesta symbol is wild and it substitutes for other symbols to complete winning lines. A similar win in my second spin now. This feels like a game that I will like. Three in a row, now a £0,75 win. Four in a row. 5 in a row before my first blank spin. I continue and hope for bigger wins.

I win almost every time but slightly less than the bet so the bank roll is getting smaller. I hit a full line of plums which takes me back to the starting bank roll. This is a really simple and fun game. Stylish design and real Las Vegas feel. 22 minutes played. I find now that the "scatter" symbol gives money if you hit three or more, regardless of where they end up in the reels. This happens and I am still alive with £7.25. 26 minutes, now I'll win!

Towards the end now and I choose a bit of a tactical strategy and bet a bit less after several consecutive wins and a bit more after a few losses in a row. It pays off! Now the half hour passed and I am leaving Fruit Fiesta with £ 22.50. Nice.

Almost as good as Mega Moolah, Fruit Fiesta flies directly up as one of my favorite video slots. It was suitable for me who had only £10 to play with, since the stakes were so flexible.

Play well, smart and responsibly
