Lion Gems: Hold and Win
Overview
Far from civilization, deep within the African continent, lie the vast territories of the savanna. This is where Playson's new 5x4 game, Lion Gems: Hold and Win, takes place. The world is exciting and full of adventure, and animals are the main heroes across 30 paylines. At the top of the hierarchy is a wise lion, who also acts as a Wild symbol. He shares all resources equally among his subjects through the Free Spins and Bonus Game modes with the "Hold and Win" mechanic. During the Free Spins mode, the Wild symbol gains a x2 multiplier, and during the Bonus Game, four types of Jackpots in the game lead players to big wins. There are several ways to win these Jackpots: three of them can appear on the reels as Mini, Minor, and Major symbols or as Mystery symbols, and the Grand Jackpot is awarded when all the empty spaces on the reels are filled with symbols. This land is filled with ancient magic that is as unpredictable as the lion's temperament. Each time a diamond symbol appears on the screen, there will be an opportunity to start the Bonus Game by activating the Diamond Peak feature, which adds extra excitement to the game.

Game graphics and theme
In the shade of the African acacia, the king of the jungle summoned his loyal court to discuss the urgent matters of his kingdom. The heat is immense and is palpable simply by looking at the different shades of orange in the background. All the animals have a say: rhinoceroses, jaguars, zebras, warthogs, and flamingos, which are represented as symbols of higher payouts. These animals had never been used in Playson games before. The lion is the symbol for Wild, and the African acacia, the symbol for Scatter.
The design of this slot machine is greatly enhanced by its clever use of contrasts. In addition to the yellow, red, and orange color palette, bright blue diamonds are used as Bonus symbols, immediately catching the player's eye. Playson paid close attention to the Bonus Game Jackpots and the Mystery symbols, which also appear as diamonds of varying colors. Like a gift box, this game is accompanied by a beautiful and contemplative soundtrack.
