Aloha: Fruit Bonanza Slot by TrueLab Games 🎰 Free Demo and Review

Aloha: Fruit Bonanza Review

Aloha: Fruit Bonanza is the latest addition to TrueLab Games’ portfolio, and as the slot’s title hints, it’s the studio’s own take on the popular genre. The guys from TrueLab are known for their creativity, but this time, however, they’ve taken a somewhat common approach, sticking to a traditional Sweet Bonanza concept. Therefore, expect pretty much a similar gaming experience, but in a new fancy tropical wrapping.

As far as the only room for developers to get creative here was the skin, let’s start walking you through the exteriors of Aloha: Fruit Bonanza, as this is where the studio has put most of their effort. Once you load in, you’ll find yourself at a serene tropical beach on a some distant island sitting amidst the vast ocean, and you’ll quickly get immersed into this lovely peaceful atmosphere thanks to sharp cartoonish graphics and a classy relaxing soundtrack. Overall, the Aloha: Fruit Bonanza slot receives 10 out of 10 for visual presentation.

Aloha: Fruit Bonanza Slot - Reel Screen

Much like the legendary Pragmatic Play’s release, the one from TrueLab Games makes use of a massive 6x5 reel matrix, where 8+ matching symbols landing anywhere in view create winning combinations. This is also linked to the cascading wins mechanic, which allows you to score multiple wins on a single spin. Whenever you achieve a payout, all winning symbols get removed from the reels, and new ones tumble down to fill the gaps, with the process going on until there are no new winning combos available.

On the reels, we see a bunch of familiar fruit symbols that we usually come across in classic fruit-themed games, as well as a bunch of least frequently encountered tropical fruits, which is not surprising given the theme. What is though is the red lucky seven that is a top-tier symbol here, which really feels like an odd duck. Aside from that, the symbol collection includes in ascending order cherries, lemons, oranges, plums, grapes, watermelons, coconuts, and dragon fruits.

The Aloha: Fruit Bonanza slot caters to any kind of punter with its abundance of stake options, starting from £0.2 at the lowest and going up to £200 at the highest. The volatility is in the medium-high range, and the maximum you can get from a single spin is 7,500x the bet. What’s most impressive is the above-average RTP, which is solid at 97.01%.

Aloha: Fruit Bonanza Slot Features

Central to the gameplay of the Aloha: Fruit Bonanza slot is the Free Spins feature, triggered when 4 or more Scatter symbols appear simultaneously anywhere in view on a base game spin. Players receive 10 spins to start with, and landing another 3+ Scatters during the bonus game awards +5 additional spins.

The free games feature operates in a similar way to the base game, but there’s one major difference. New bonus symbols are added to the reels, called the Juicy Multipliers, which can appear with values from 2x to 100x. When a Juicy Multiplier symbol is present on the grid, the total win of the current spin is multiplied by the shown value at the end of the cascades. If there is more than one multiplier in view, their values are summed up.

Players can use the Bonus Bet feature to increase the odds of hitting a bonus. When activated, your chances of triggering the free spins are doubled, but the trade-off is a 25% increased bet.

Finally, players can opt for the Buy Feature to skip the less exciting part and jump straight into the action. For the fixed cost of 100x the base bet, you can trigger the free spins immediately from the base game.

Review Summary

All up, Aloha: Fruit Bonanza is an enjoyable slot, but it doesn’t really have anything new for players to offer. The theme is undoubtedly the main reason why players might feel drawn to spin the reels on it, as there are hardly any other advantages when compared to Sweet Bonanza, especially when considering the three times lower max win capability.
