7 Gold Fruits: Slot Overview

You know, in some ways, if industries were people, you'd be hard-pressed to find one healthier than the online gambling business, what with all the fruit constantly flying everywhere. Then again, there are a lot of sweet slots, too, so maybe not. Anyway, the point is, here's another fruit slot for fans of the healthy stuff, flying off software provider 4ThePlayer's production line going by the name of 7 Gold Fruits.

You might want to turn the brightness setting on your monitor down before 7 Gold Fruits lights it up. Or, if you're the sort of gambler who wears their sunglasses indoors for luck or whatever, all the better. The reason why is 7 Gold Fruits is a rather bright game, not only chock full of juicy-looking fruit symbols but it has been plonked in a bank with a shiny golden vault door, surrounded by shiny gold coins and banknotes. Even the fruits turn gold at certain points. The finishing touch is a thin but funky backing track doing its darndest to create a positive atmosphere.

By pressing the + and – buttons, players can pick a stake as low as 20 c or as high as $/€20 per spin. When in motion, 5-reels spin, landing 4 symbols on each reel, where there are 10 paylines for evaluating wins. Interestingly, paylines are used during 7 Gold Fruits' hold 'n win respin feature and are one of the game's most exciting moments. Locked deep in the vault is 7 Gold Fruits' medium-high volatile math model, shooting out a default 96% RTP when playing the regular way, though rising when buying features.

7 Gold Fruits' paytable consists of, you guessed it, 7 fruit symbols – strawberries, grapes, lemons, oranges, plums, cherries, and watermelons, plus a bell and a '7'. Hitting 5 matching fruits or bells pays out 10 to 50 times the bet; however, it's not clear what a line of 5 '7s' is worth since that bit was missing from the paytable during the time of writing.

7 Gold Fruits: Slot Features

7 Gold Fruits' fruity bowl of features includes Gold Cash Stacks, Cash Bombs, respins, free spins, Big 7 prizes, and bonus buys.

Gold Cash Stacks, Cash Bombs & Vault Scatters

  • Gold Cash Stacks - Any fruit symbol may appear as Gold Fruit Stacks in the base game – only 1 type of fruit will do so on any given spin. Gold Fruit Stacks land fully or partially in view, displaying cash prizes, and can make line wins with matching normal fruit symbols. Any Gold Fruit Stacks involved in line wins award the cash prizes attached to the relevant stacks.
  • Cash Bombs - Cash Bombs can spin in on any base game spin. Each Cash Bomb that hits creates a random Gold Fruit Stack on the entire reel. The Gold Cash Stack will be of the same type as the fruit symbols that can form Gold Cash Stacks on the spin.
  • Vault Scatters - Hitting 3, 4, or 5 vault scatter symbols pays out 0.2x, 1x, or 20x the bet while also granting access to the bonus round. Once the bonus is triggered, players pick either a free spins round or a respins round. As well as triggering the bonus, vault scatters are also wild, so they substitute any regular pay symbol.

Free Spins

For free spins, a random fruit symbol is selected at the beginning of the feature to be the Gold Fruit Bomb. This will be the only Gold Fruit symbol in the round, and only 1 may land per reel. If 3 or more Gold Fruit Bombs land, they each explode to form a stack of Gold Fruit symbols with cash prizes filling their reels. After any line wins are awarded, players win all cash prizes in view, even if they are not on winning lines.

Respins

During this feature, each position on the grid lands either blanks or Gold Fruit symbols holding cash values. To begin with, 3 respins are awarded, and when a new Gold Fruit symbol is locked to the grid, the respin count is reset. The total of all cash prizes in view is awarded at the end of the round. First, though, if a line win is created, any cash prizes on that line are multiplied by x2. A symbol can be multiplied more than once if more than 1 line win forms through it. Also, filling 15 positions guarantees a Big 7 prize in the final position.

Big 7 Prizes

Four Big 7 prizes may appear on '7' symbols on the rightmost reel. A Big 7 prize is awarded by creating a line with other '7' symbols in the base game or in free spins or by locking them in place during the respins round. The 4 prizes are the Big, Super, Mega, and Ultra, bearing values of 100x, 250x, 1,000x, and 5,000x the bet, respectively.

Buy Feature

From here, players can buy a Bomb Spin, which is a guaranteed win with 1 or more Cash Bomb symbols for 40x the bet (RTP 96.5%), or access the bonus round for 80 times the bet (RTP 96.1%).

7 Gold Fruits: Slot Verdict

There was a thought that 7 Gold Fruits might have been related to 7 Gold Gigablox, also by 4ThePlayer, but aside from the glitzy classic slot exterior, both games are quite dissimilar from each other. While 7 Gold Fruits might initially feel like 'Here we go, another fruit slot', it possesses a few intricacies which help set it apart. To be fair, 4ThePlayer is pretty good at doing that. Oftentimes, the team comes up with something radically different, 9K Kong in Vegas, 10X Rewind, or 60 Second Heist, for example, or they're equally good at taking on something popular, a bit mainstream, then tearing it down to see how they can inject pieces of their unique personality. Oh, and finally, put a number on the front of the title to help with the rankings, presumably.

7 Gold Fruits flies its freak flag in a number of ways. In the base game, players get Cash Bombs and Gold Cash Stacks, for starters. It might be tempting to see Gold Cash Stacks as somehow wild in the beginning, but no, they need other symbols of their kind to create winning lines, and winning lines are also needed to award the cash values they display. It's a bit fiddly, perhaps, but novel, too, and something to help speed the base game along. The free spins round is more or less another altered run-through of the base game, with extras, which leaves the respins feature. At a glance, the respins round might seem like any old hold 'n win feature where money symbols hit, lock, reset the count, and then tally up their prizes at the end. That is basically the gist, but the add-on 4ThePLayer has squeezed in, doubling prizes when they are part of a winning line, is actually a pretty good one and may flip an initial so-so result into something more fulfilling.

By its very nature, being a fruit slot with a hold 'n win feature means it might be hard for 7 Gold Fruits to dazzle its way to greatness. Can't say it really does so, but if the brief was to design a mightily bright, glitzy slot with fruit, respins, new bits and more, then 7 Gold Fruits achieves its mission.

Fair

A collection of classic slot parts and mechanics have been hit with a modernising brush to help push 7 Gold Fruits a notch or two above the regular fruit slot bowl.
