Features
Hearts Desire is a throwback to old-school fruit machine slot games of yester year. However, there's so much more to this one than those vintage three-reel games.
You'll find:
- A randomly triggered progressive jackpot, networked with other BetSoft games
- A Wild symbol, that substitutes for all others except the scatter
- Mystery symbols - that can appear stacked over multiple reels
- Golden heart scatters, which award exactly your bet for one to five. But hit all five, and you'll enter the bonus round!
- A special Gem Heart scatter in the bonus round
That's quite a lot of stuff, but it's all good for sure. This is a medium variance game, so some of the base game symbols do pay well for 4 or 5x - but not all of them. A fair amount of value is locked away in the bonus game, but that's quite usual.
There's also that tasty progressive jackpot too. With four levels, starting at $10,000. Not bad eh!
Bonus
Hearts Desire slot bonus round is a uniquely interesting one definitely. It starts when you get 5 gold heart symbols on the main reels.
Each one pays 1x your bet automatically by themselves. However, when you pull 5 of them - these have a chance to upgrade.
The 5 hearts values are then added together, for a minimum of 5x your bet. That number becomes what the new Pink Gem is worth in the bonus round!
Not bad! You then get 5 free spins with expanding mystery symbols and more gold and pink hearts.
Each gold heart you get adds another free spin. But not only that it also stacks another 1x onto the pink heart symbol value! During our playtest we scored an absolutely huge win in the bonus round, with each Pink Heart worth 10x our bet. Mad!
Verdict
- Cool old-school fruity theme updated for the modern day
- Unique bonus round with massive win potential
- Progressive networked jackpot starting at $10,000
If you like the vibe and feel of old-school fruit machine slots, with the features and design of a truly modern game, you'll enjoy Hearts Desire.
The addition of the progressive jackpot and a1,150x maximum win is just the cherry on top!
