Gem Elevator, launched by Pragmatic Play on August 29, 2024, takes players deep into a vibrant underground mining adventure where dazzling gems and innovative features await. Set within a 6×5 grid, this high-volatility slot comes with a Cluster Pays mechanic, where clusters of five or more matching symbols can lead to multiple wins on a single spin. Boasting a max win potential of 10,000x the bet and a default RTP of 96.53%, Gem Elevator is a thrilling addition to Pragmatic Play’s diverse slots portfolio.

About Gem Elevator

Gem Elevator captures the essence of a mining expedition. The reels are set against a deep, gem-laden mine shaft, giving a sense of depth and adventure. The visual elements are polished, with colourful gems sparkling across the screen. A burly, bearded miner stands to the side of the reels, occasionally pulling a lever to activate the unique Elevator Nudge feature.

On the reels are the low payers represented by small blue, green, orange and purple gems. The larger green, blue, purple and red gems are high-paying symbols. A golden nugget is the wild symbol and can land with multiple values from 1x to 10x. The scatter is a drill symbol with the text ‘Bonus’ and helps trigger the Free Spins.

This slot features a 6×5 grid and utilises the Cluster Pays mechanic instead of traditional paylines. It’s available on desktop and mobile devices from 20p to £240 per spin. It is classified as highly volatile with a default RTP of 96.53% and a max win of 10,000x the bet.

Gameplay and Features

Gem Elevator features Tumbles, Wilds, an Elevator Nudge, Free Spins, and a Bonus Buy option.

Tumble Feature

The Tumble feature is a cascading mechanic that triggers after a winning combination of 5 or more matching symbols. The winning symbols disappear, and new symbols fall into the vacant positions, potentially creating multiple wins from a single spin.

Wilds

The Wilds substitute for regular symbols, barring the Scatter symbol, to help create winning combinations. They appear on all reels and, during the Elevator Nudge feature, can land with multipliers attached, worth 1x to 10x.

Elevator Nudge Feature

After a Tumble ends, the Elevator Nudge feature can trigger randomly. A rugged miner beside the reels selects one or more reels to nudge up or down up to 5 times. If the Nudges result in a win, a payout is awarded, and the nudge continues. During the feature, Wilds can appear on the grid. If they have a multiplier attached, it is applied to all wins it is involved in. If a Wild nudges without creating a win, its multiplier value doubles on each nudge.

Free Spins

You’ll need 4 or more Scatters to trigger up to 20 free spins. During each Free Spin, one or more reels are guaranteed to nudge up or down one or more positions. The Free Spins can be retriggered by landing 4, 5 or 6 scatter symbols for 5, 8 or 10 additional Free Spins.

Bonus Buy

If you want to enter the Free Spins straightaway, you can buy in for 100x the bet for between 10 and 20 Free Spins, with an increased RTP of 96.58%.

Conclusion

Gem Elevator combines an immersive mining theme with innovative gameplay mechanics. Thanks to its highly volatile nature and substantial winning potential, it’s perfect for those who enjoy high-stakes games. As always, Pragmatic Play has delivered an excellent slot with solid gameplay mechanics and innovative features that tick along nicely from start to finish.
