Triple Juicy Drops

Triple Juicy Drops Overview

BetSoft seems to have developed a liking for creating juicy cluster pays slots, and this one looks like it will be the juiciest one yet. Taking the classic fruity theme to a more exciting 3D level, Triple Juicy Drops introduces you to a world of refreshing fruity madness with the chance to win some great jackpots. Mechanically, this game is a 5-reel, 5-row game with a cluster pays dynamic, meaning players only need to land clusters of three or more matching symbols to register a win.

The features for this game start with a cascading bonus that comes into play every time you register a win. When this happens, the winning symbols are removed from the reels and replaced by a new set to help you score more wins from the same spin. The next feature is the prize wheel, triggered when players collect randomly selected symbols. The more of these symbols you collect, the more wheels you will activate. These wheels then give you the chance of winning several jackpot amounts. Finally, this game also has a free spin round. All features will be explained in more detail later in the review.

Theme and Symbols

As mentioned in the introduction, the theme for this game is a modern take on the fruity. There are still distinctive fruits on the reels; however, they have been updated to be more varied and in high-quality 3D forms. The designers have effectively brought the conventional fruity aesthetic into the 21st century with better graphics and a fresher appeal. However, this does mean that the game looks a little like a children’s fruity drink advert with startlingly bright colours and a simple sans-serif font for the text.
The background is a swirling punchbowl of summery looking cocktail, full to the brim with fruits that appear on the reels. Whatever the concoction, the designers have made it look very tempting indeed. The only change to this background comes when players trigger the free spin round, and the normally light pink liquid is magically transformed into a deep orange. Presumably, this change indicates a new flavour of this drink. Both, however, look delicious and definitely do the job of keeping your eye transfixed to the screen.

The playing board is a standard rectangle with a colourful exterior matching its vibrant surroundings.
The symbols for this game are split into low-paying, high-paying and special symbols. The low paying symbols are the cherry, banana, raspberry and plum. The most valuable of these is the plum, paying out at 2.5x the stake for the top combination. On the other hand, the higher value symbols are the lemon, the orange, the watermelon, and finally, the diamond. The diamond is the most lucrative, worth 20x the stake for the top combination. The specials here are the juicy wild and the orange reel scatters that trigger the free spins round.

Game Play

Triple Juicy Drops is played on a 5-reel, 5-row cluster pays machine. This means that wins are found when players land clusters of three or more matching symbols on the reels in vertically or horizontally aligning patterns. The bigger the cluster, the more valuable the win.

Features

The first feature of this game is the wild bonus. This concerns the wild symbol. These symbols substitute for other icons on the reels to help form more wins. Wild are also just as valuable as the top paying symbol, making creating wins with them very lucrative.

The second feature is the prize wheel. To the left-hand side of the reels, you’ll see three-reel meters to monitor the collection of certain symbols. These randomly selected symbols are shuffled every twenty spins. Filling the meters will give you access to the various prize wheel features.

The most valuable of these is the Mega Spin prize wheel triggered when players collect 25 winning symbols in 20 base game spins. This could mean a win of up to 20,000x the stake. The prize wheels also have free spin sections on them, meaning that you can also boost the number of free spins you earn in the other feature.
Finally, this game also has a free spins game triggered by landing three or more of the scatter symbols on the reels at the same time. The more scatters you land to trigger the feature, the more spin you will be awarded. The free spins also award you with an instant cash win when you initially trigger the bonus in proportion to the number of scatters that you landed the feature with.

Conclusion

Triple Juicy Drops is an attractive game with enticing graphics and a fun, upbeat vibe perfect for summer gaming. The features are also engaging and potentially quite lucrative. Although the top win here is respectable, sadly, the RTP isn’t, and for that reason, the win potential is not where it needs to be to be a truly well-rounded slot. However, this doesn’t stop you from having a few low bet spins purely for fun.
