Diamond Match Slot by Playtech

The layout is the hook. Two 5x4 grids sit stacked on top of each other, but only the bottom one spins. The upper grid is a static board of prizes, cash values and jackpot coins locked in diamond-cut plates, waiting to be claimed. Diamond Match symbols do the claiming: land one on the lower reels and it collects whatever prize is parked directly above it on the top grid. So the bottom set is your spinning mechanism and the top set is the payout you're reaching for.

Base wins pay left to right across 40 lines on the lower grid alone, topped by a shining Star, then a golden Horseshoe, a Bell, red and blue Sevens, and gem-cut A-K-Q-J royals underneath. The upper grid only pays out through those Diamond Match symbols and the coins they pull down. Cash coins run from about half your total bet up to roughly 15x each. The four jackpot coins are fixed rather than progressive: Mini at 10x, Minor 25x, Major 100x, and the Grand at 500x total bet. Wild stands in for the paying symbols but never the Diamond Match, the coins, or the feature symbols, so it can't shortcut a collect.

Free Games changes how the collect works. Instead of a stationary Diamond Match symbol, one moves. It travels with red and green arrows that shove it around the reels position by position, so a single symbol keeps sweeping prizes off the top board through the round rather than collecting once and stopping. There's also Mega Match, a stepped-up version that widens the collection or multiplies what the coins are worth.

No buy button, so both Free Games and Mega Match have to land on their own. Everything is dressed in diamond white over deep blue and violet with gold accents, the four jackpot pills glinting down the side of the reels. The top end works out around 1,185x total bet.
