Fruit Zen is an arcade type 3D video slot released by Betsoft Software providers in June 2014. It is similar to a fruit machine. It has 10 pay lines and 5 reels on a 5 by 3 grid layout. It has an RTP of 95.96% and is zen-themed, focusing on the relaxation aspect of moving water.
The symbols featured on the reels are fruit symbols which include cherries, watermelons, wild berries, raspberries, lemons, oranges, and the Fruit Zen logo. The Fruit Zen logo, which is the word Fruit zen surrounded by brightly colored fruits, represents the wild symbol. Fruit Zen features two bonus features as described below;
- Expanding Wilds
When the wild symbol lands on reels 2, 3, or 4 in Fruit Zen Slots, it expands, taking up the entire space on the reels. When the wild symbol feature is triggered, a free re-spin feature will be activated automatically after the first spin. Any recurring wild symbols will continue to trigger the free re-spin feature until no other wilds appear on the reels.
- Free Re-spin Feature
This feature is activated by the appearance of the expanding wilds. During the free spins bonus round, the wild symbol sticks to its place, increasing the number of possible winning combinations.
The game, however, does not offer any more bonus feature such as scatter symbols, bonus games, multipliers, and the double up option.
How to Play Fruit Zen
To start the game, you need to align the settings to your preference. Begin by choosing the coin value from a range of options between 0.02 and 1. After this is done, set the number of coins you need to bet per line. The minimum number of coins you can bet per line is set at 1 while the maximum number is 10. You then need to set the number of pay lines you would like to use. Pressing the spin button will set the reels in motion. You could also use the Autoplay option, which allows you to set the number of spins you desire. The reels will then spin automatically without interruptions until you land a winning combination.
The cherry symbol is the least paying symbol. The raspberry symbol has a similar value to the cherry symbol. The next highest valued symbol is watermelon. The grapefruits, sliced lemons, and the round orange have the highest values with the orange having the highest payout capacity while the grapes have the least among the three. Matching five of orange symbols could get you a payout of 250 coins, which is the jackpot amount. There are also prizes offered for matching 3 to 5 symbols for the rest of the symbols.
