Alien Fruits Takes Matching Symbols Into Orbit
Fruit characters in spacesuits give this game an unusual look, but the important detail is how wins form across the screen. Alien Fruits comes from BGaming and replaces traditional paylines with a pay anywhere system. Matching symbols do not need to sit beside each other along a fixed route. This review covers the original release, where refilling reels lead into a separate multiplier feature during free spins.
Why Position Matters Less Than Quantity
The Alien Fruits slot machine counts matching symbols across the playing area. After a winning result, the relevant symbols disappear and replacements drop into the empty spaces. Further wins keep the refill sequence running until no new paying combination forms. One paid spin can therefore contain several results.
Check the paytable for the required symbol counts before choosing a stake.
Spaceships Open the Feature Round
The Alien Fruits bonus starts when at least four spaceship scatters land in one spin. The initial award depends on their number, and more scatters can extend the round. A Bonus Buy option is also part of the game, where available. Its displayed price changes with the bet, so check the full purchase cost before confirming.
| Trigger or feature | Result |
|---|---|
| Four scatters in the base game | Ten free spins |
| Five scatters in the base game | Twenty free spins |
| Six scatters in the base game | Thirty free spins |
| Three or more scatters during the feature | Five additional spins |
| Multiplier symbol during free spins | A random value from 2x to 100x |
| Several multipliers in one sequence | Values are added before application |
Each Alien Fruits freespin can produce a refilling sequence with multiplier symbols. These remain until that sequence ends. Their values are added together and applied to its accumulated win. For example, 2x and 5x make 7x, not 10x. The distinction matters when reading a payout, especially after several refills. A large multiplier still needs a winning amount to multiply.
Reading the Published Return
BGaming lists the Alien Fruits RTP at 95.97% and rates volatility as high. The percentage describes theoretical return over extensive play. It does not mean that a €100 deposit should leave €95.97 in your balance.
Wagers include restaked winnings and can exceed your deposit. Results can vary sharply between sessions. Check the active game’s information panel and set a spending limit before starting.
What Makes the Format Appealing
- Pay anywhere wins remove the need to trace individual paylines across the screen.
- Refilling reels let one paid spin develop through several visible stages.
- Scatter counts clearly determine the starting free spin award.
- Added multiplier values make feature calculations easier to understand.
- Spacefaring fruit characters give the game a distinctive visual identity.
Neither a long dry spell nor a nearly completed scatter trigger makes a feature due.
