The Wombat says: A bit bored of the usual slots Wombat Fans?
Then try this fruity number from Games Global (formerly Microgaming) and Skillzzgaming! Explode your way to some lucky wins in this multi-level game called Fruit Blast.
We’d put this game in a similar category to the Bonanza Slot from Big Time Gaming. Collect stars and complete missions to level up, where you’ll find eight different bonus features that can prove very entertaining.
It’s a sweet fruit-matching game that hands out juicy wins! Let’s give it a whirl.
Fruit Blast Slot GamePlay
The first thing you’ll notice about Fruit Blast is that it’s brighter than the Dropz slot machine and there are no reels.
It’s more like a skill game than a slot and is played out on a 5×5 grid of symbols with a couple of friendly cocktail makers.
When you match up three or more of the same symbol (including lemons, cherries, grapes, watermelons and pineapples) you can blast them away to pick up points, while new fruity symbols will replace them. It’s a lot like Candy Crush!
The aim is to collect stars which enable you to ‘level up’ and you can do this by playing the game and completing achievements. This unlocks a new bartender who will whip up some bonus extras for you – which if you’re lucky could mean prizes, hurrah!
When you have filled up fruit-o-meters to the left of the grid, you’ll also scoop a cheeky little prize… Keep your eyes peeled for the Jackpot Symbol, too. Land 3x of the blighters and you could win x1000 your bet!
We have a few of these different games here at Wombat Casino- there’s Beehive Bedlam Reactors, for example, or Fruit Warp. Give them a spin if you fancy something a bit different.

Meet the Bartenders!
There are nine bartenders in the game. Each (except for the first one) has a unique bonus that is set off by blasting a cluster of bonus tiles.

You will unlock new bartenders by advancing Levels.

Conclusion
Fruit Blast is a lot of fun, Wombat Fans, with its multi-level play and unlockable features. It’s certainly different from the standard slot experience, and a medium variance game – so if you’re looking for more volatility, it might not be for you. The rest of you will love it though!

FAQs

How do you trigger payouts in this game?
When you spot cluster of three more matching symbols, either horizontally or vertically, you select one and you will blast them away. New symbols will drop in from above. To the left are fruit meters. Every time you blast a cluster, it fills the corresponding meter. Repeat until there are no more matches. When you fill a meter, you trigger a prize. Watch out for the Bonus and Jackpot symbols.
