Crystal Rift

You don’t need to mine far to find the Crystal Rift slot, but once you have found it you might find its sparkling treasures rather alluring. What is more enticing is that if you play the reels right there are rewards of up to 1,000 times your wager up for grabs.

Old Arthur in the Avalon slot machine could do with a bit of that, although he has got the Lady of the Lake looking after him I suppose.

Rabcat Gambling and Microgaming’s Crystal Rift slot has lots of exciting extras to play with including cascading symbols and a Wild Grid feature to try your luck on.

The Graphics

The Crystal Rift slot is set in a dark and atmospheric underground cave  with the reels set against a pitch dark black background.

On each side of the reels is a shaft of daylight illuminating the slot play. It’s not as bright as other games like the Berryburst slot machine, but it’s nicely designed, a slick looking game.

The reels are transparent, and you will see faint grid lines in the shape of hexagons on each spin, all part and parcel of Crystal Rift’s bonus offering.

The game play is set off by the intermittent sound of crystal rocks falling down topped off with some rather dramatic music that keeps the gaming tension on the high side.

Crystal Rift Slot Game Play

Crystal Rift slot is set over 4 rows, 5 reels and 25 paylines. That’s more pay-lines than in the Agent Jane Blonde slot and a few other games, about average, we’d say.

A series of 8 different crystals of varying size, shapes and colours make up the icons on the transparent reels. The highest playing symbol on the reels is a tawny rock which is worth its weight in cash. Land five of this shiny crystal on an active payline and you will earn 2,000 coins.

The slot’s Wild is a giant white crystal which substitutes for all other icons on the reels. If you’re fortunate enough to land five Wilds on an active pay-line you can a 40x your wager pay off.

The games’ mechanism is cascading reels, as opposed to the traditional spin. When you hit the spin button the reels completely empty, with a new series of crystals toppling onto the reels.

The Bonuses

Bonus Falls
If you collect a winning combination of crystals on the reels you will see that the winning icons explode into dust only to be refreshed with a new set of symbols, ready to try to make you a new win. This nifty feature will continue until you stop making wins, it’s similar to the avalanche feature that you might have seen on some of our NetEnt slots like Gonzo’s Quest.

Wild Grid
Faint hexagon-shaped grid lines appear on the reels with each spin and these are key to the slot’s charms.

If you can land three cascading wins in a row, you’ll activate this clever grid: the legendary Crystal Rift of the games’ title. The grid lines become clear on the reels and then will transform, lucratively, into a series of Wilds.

Then you’ll get a re-spin with the new Wilds in place to help boost your win potential.

Summary

Top graphics and a couple of clever bonus extras makes the Crystal Rift slot a great game. We give it a monkey thumb’s up!
