Gemix Slot

Released in 2014, the Gemix slot game has maintained a strong reputation amongst gamers and industry professionals due to the theme and mechanics that were ahead of their time. As the title suggests, gems are the central component of this Play’n Go slot release, and these bring a variety of unique game mechanics and features to play. At the time of its release, the user interface and game design of this Gemix title were unlike any other online casino games out there, and this release has stood the test of time because of it.

Gemix Game Background

The first thing that players may notice upon opening the Gemix game is the expansive paytable that Play’n Go have chosen to include. There are a total of 49 symbols per spin here, displayed in a 7x7 format, which utilises the cluster-pays mechanism as opposed to standard paylines seen in most online slots. This means that players can trigger base game prizes through landing 5 or more matching base game symbols, which are connected horizontally or vertically on the grid. 

The backdrop here utilises a fantasy-style cave setting with glowing gemstones protruding out of the rock wall on either side of the reels. Though the user interface and Gemix game title take up much of the screen, visual features can be seen behind them, including the wooden door, another section of the cave and ladders leading up to a ledge in the rock. All of the bet stake options, along with the paytable and spin button in Gemix, are located across the bottom of the screen.

Players who like the underground, gemstone-based imagery here may enjoy Hot Gems Cash Collect and the Mining Rush slot on site.

Gemix Slot Symbols

As you may already imagine, due to the title and visual features described already, the symbols that Play’n Go has opted for here are based around different coloured gemstones. As opposed to the traditional playing cards or fruit symbols seen in many of the Megaways and jackpot slots online, the paytable of Gemix is filled with gemstones. These symbols feature unique colours and shapes with prize values triggered from between 5 and 15+ landing in a cluster.

Lower Value Symbols:

• Blue gem

• Aqua gem

• Purple Gem

• Green gem

Medium Value Symbols:

• Orange gem

• Pink gem

Higher Value Symbols

• Red heart gem

• Golden star gem

Along with the base game gem symbols of Gemix already mentioned, there are bonus mechanics which can alter the setting of play and unique bonus symbols for each setting.

Gemix Bonus Features 

Firstly, the Crystal Charge feature is powered up each time a cluster is potentially formed in Gemix, with 20 symbols being needed for this bonus to activate. If this Crystal Charge feature is activated, the player could trigger one of 4 modifiers. These are:

• Nova Blast - A symbol that explodes on screen,  removing and changing adjacent symbols to it.

• Crystal Warp - A symbol is chosen, and all matching symbols on the screen are warped to something different.

• Light Beam - A symbol on screen shoots out beams of light, which hit others and transform them into different symbols.

• Chain Lightning - Symbols in 2 corners are connected by a chain, which transforms any symbols it touches to match one of these corners.

• Super Charge - If 40+ symbols fill the Crystal Charge scale, all prize values are multiplied by 3x.

At the beginning of play in Gemix, a pattern is visible on the reels with certain symbol segments featuring a grey backdrop to make a distinctive shape. Each cluster which may be formed in these pattern spaces will mark them off, and by filling entire patterns in play, the setting of Gemix can change. Each setting brings its own wild symbol, like those of Slingo games, which features unique mechanics. These include the following:

• Miner Wild - Can step in place for any base game symbol. A maximum of 10 miner wilds can land on any non-cluster-forming spin.

• Princess Wild - Is able to step in for any base game symbols and can spread from one side of the grid to the other if no clusters are formed.

• Wizard Wild - Features the same substituting capabilities as those already mentioned. A maximum of 8 sticky wilds can land on random positions in any round where no cluster is formed.
