Fruity Face Slot by Fazi

Strip away the wild, the scatter, the free spins and the bonus round, and this is what you're left with: five reels, five fixed lines, seven symbols, paid left to right with only the single highest line counting. That's the entire base game. No symbol does anything clever, nothing expands or sticks or multiplies. You match three or more from the left and you get paid, and the bold red 7 is the one that matters, topping the table at 1,000x for five and still paying 200x for four. Below it, the gold BAR plate and the striped watermelon share second place at 200x for five, then the golden bell and the orange at 50x, and the cherries and lemon at 40x. The cherries are the soft landing here, the only symbol that pays from just two of a kind.

The look is the part doing the talking. A grinning, googly-eyed orange mascot beams out of the title banner over a bright red cartoon backdrop, all radiating pop-art rays and halftone dots, with glowing "5" badges flanking each side to mark the line count. The fruit is hand-drawn comic-book style rather than the usual glossy render, which is the one thing setting it apart from every other red-and-gold fruit board out there.

Two extras hang off the base game. Any win can go to a red-or-black gamble, double or nothing on a card flip, pushing up to a 50,000 ceiling before it caps out. And three mystery progressive jackpots, Gold, Diamond and Platinum, tick along the top off a slice of every bet. They drop at a random hidden point with no combination to chase, and the odds scale with your stake, so betting up is the only lever you have on them. Outside of those two things there's nothing to learn, which is rather the point of a traditional fruit machine.
