Play’n GO’s Diamond Vortex Stirs Up the Video Slots Community
Experience the latest release from Swedish iGaming software developer Play’n GO – Diamond Vortex, a thrilling hexagonal grid video slot. Following the success of their previous hit, Honey Rush, it’s no surprise that the makers have jumped on the trend of grid-slots.
Diamond Vortex takes players on an intergalactic journey with its space-themed layout, a format popularized by Play’n GO in some of their best-selling games. The game features three concentric circles that spin and rearrange symbols with every cascade, triggered by special Zones and Spots that offer exciting features such as free spins and symbol transformations.
The highlight of Diamond Vortex is the Core Wild Vortex located in the center of the grid. This powerful bonus absorbs all other wilds on the screen, increasing their value for even bigger wins.
Bonus Features
Similar to Honey Rush, Diamond Vortex has a unique grid formation of 4-5-6-7-6-5-4. However, this time players will find themselves among stars and galaxies as they play for buy-ins ranging from €0.20 to €100 per spin. The game boasts an impressive RTP value of 96.20%, although this may vary in different versions. To ensure the best results, always check the in-game specifications before placing a bet.
The Zones and Spots on each ring play a crucial role in Diamond Vortex. While Zones remain fixed at the top of each ring, Spots rotate from the bottom until a winning sequence is achieved. This triggers the Rotate feature, which moves the innermost ring clockwise, the middle ring anti-clockwise, and the outer ring clockwise. Non-winning symbols shift with the rings while new symbols appear in their place for potential wins.
Another exciting feature is the Wilds – Diamond Vortex boasts two types, Core and Sticky Wilds. The Core Wild sits at the center of all rings while Sticky Wilds appear during cascades. When part of a winning combination, Sticky Wilds move to an inner ring closer to the Core Wild with each consecutive win.
Scatters and Payouts
As Sticky Wilds move towards the Core Wild, they trigger Diamond Vortex’s Consume feature which doubles their value for every one consumed thereafter. The game caps this multiplier at 20x – still an impressive bonus! However, it resets to a 1x total stake at the start of every new game.
Additionally, when Spots reach Zones they activate Transform, turning all symbols on that particular ring into matching pay symbols – potentially leading to massive payouts! In free spin rounds triggered by bonus symbols reaching Zones, Spots do not return to their original position between spins.
