About Brilliant Diamonds Hold & Win

Brilliant Diamonds Hold & Win Is played on 5 reels with 25 winning ways and is available on desktop and mobile devices from 25p up to £25 per spin.Inspired by a luxurious lifestyle where money is no object, the reels are framed in a diamond encrusted frame sat in the middle of a rather uninspiring purple background. Symbols include the low value royals, along with premiums represented by champagne on ice, cars, watches and a private jet worth between 6x and 16x the bet for 5 matching symbols.The Diamond wilds land stacked and replace all regular symbols, they also pay on their own, 5 on a payline are worth 16x the bet.

Gameplay

The Diamond Modifier feature activates randomly on any spin and diamonds rain over the screen. You’ll either get the Hold & Win respins or a prize of 20x the stake. Regular platinum diamonds may transform into gold multiplier diamonds.To activate the Hold and Win Respins you’ll need at least 5 platinum or gold diamonds. These become sticky and 3 respins are awarded. Only diamond symbols are in play, and each additional diamond symbol remains sticky and the respins reset back to 3. The game ends after all the respins are used or you have a grid full of diamond.  Both the platinum and diamond symbols come with cash values or a jackpot prize of up to 1,000x the bet.Gold diamonds could add a multiplier starting at 1x, each additional gold diamond landing increases the multiplier by 1+.

Verdict

Brilliant Diamonds Hold & Win is not as impressive as first thought. The design and theme are rather uninspiring and outdated, more in keeping with slots going back 20+ years. There are no free spins, but the game does ramp up with the addition of the diamond modifiers
