Endorphina’s newest release; Fresh Crush, is as fresh as the dew that has formed on the mountains in the background of the game itself.
Taking the cascading reels and scatter symbol slot game format, this game transcends you to the crystal clear skies and waters of an idyllic mountain range.
Everything you see on your hike is in high definition because colours are so much brighter in nature.
Theme and Graphics
The vivid colours of the fruits and jewels scatted across the mountains helps you to feel bright and alert as you hike across mountain terrain, thick forests and wade through crystal clear waters.
The symbols have a great sense of familiarity, yet every so often the most fabulous sparkling blue jewel appears and rewards are oh so much more vivid.
The music is really enjoyable to listen to, giving you a sense of tranquillity as you was symbols appear and burst as they produce fruitful wins. It evokes a lovely relaxing atmosphere and gives you that sense of casually trekking along as you admire the scenery.
How To Play
The game features are really easy to navigate. Simple press each box , for example bet amount and it will allow you to increase or decrease you bet amount. The spin button gives you the option to do turbo spins (only accessible in certain countries – it wont allow you to press if not available). Auto Spins allows you to sit back and watch, counting up how many spins you have done as they pass, this being different to other auto options where you decide how many spins you would like first. To switch off auto spin, just press the auto button again.
The reels will spin and if you get a certain quantity of the same symbol appear, you will get a win. Different symbols require different quantities of them to appear – in most cases you need at least 8 of the same symbol to appear anywhere on the grid to enable a win. If you are lucky to see the blue crystals; you only need four of these of a win.
The symbols do not need to be in any particular formation – they just need to appear. If you do get 8 or more of the same symbols, they will simultaneously pop, adding your win to your pot and there will be new symbols falling or cascading down, giving you another opportunity to collect 8 of the same symbol – this then sparking a chain reaction of more wins.
