Overview

Go mining for riches in Playtech’s Hot Gems Xtreme slot. With 6 reels and 4,096 ways to win, it uses the Ways Boost mechanic and can be played at top UK slot sites from 20p a spin.

When you land a winning combination, the Growing Reels feature is triggered, with new symbols replacing the winning ones. Every win sees a new row of symbols added, which increases the number of ways to win: up to 262,144. There is a TNT symbol that transforms wild, Big symbols up to 3x3 in size and transforming Walking Mystery symbols.

In the Free Games feature, you begin with up to 25 free spins. With each collapse or TNT explosion, extra rows are added for more ways to win. However, the number of ways to win can only increase during the feature. There is also unlimited extra free spins to be won. With a 95.81% RTP rate and 10,000 x bet max wins, play the free demo version below. Want more games to play for free? Head to OLBG’s Demo Slots section for the best games.

Mine for Gold

Hot Gems Xtreme is one of hundreds of mining slots available online. With so many to ‘pick’ from (excuse the pun), I’ve whittled down all options in a dedicated guide. However, below are 3 of my favourites:

Bonanza Falls (Big Time Gaming): This sequel to Bonanza Megaways introduces the Megadozer mechanic, which drops Bonus Coins onto the reels for multipliers, symbol multipliers, extra free spins and multiplier increases for up to 93,540 x bet max win potential.
Mega Mine (Relax Gaming): With 5 reels and 32 ways to win, there are Nudging Mystery Stacks to nudge to take over the reels and increase the reel sizes for up to 32,768 ways to win. With more Nudging Mystery Stacks in the free spins that transform into wilds, max wins can reach 50,000 x bet.
Fire in the Hole 3 (Nolimit City): Following on from 2 superb games, it features NLC’s favourite dwarf, who is trapped inside the mine and drinks whiskey. With various mechanics including xHole, xSplit and xBomb Wilds, there are Lucky Wagon Spins and Frozen Wagon Spins with enhancers for up to 70,000 x bet payouts.
