The introduction

There will be a lot more free slots from G Games in the coming months. While G Games has its headquarters in Gibraltar, they also have studios in Spain, Germany, and the UK, giving the games a truly international feel. And fruit-based slots are one of the most recognisable themes. These games are reminiscent of a time when players received fruit-flavored chewing gum for prizes.

Many software developers have a unique take on the classic retro fruit-themed slot. Some, such as Big Time Gaming, update it with a fresh modern twist, as seen with the fast-paced Opal Fruits slot. However, G Gaming has kept the retro vibe going throughout, which is sure to appeal to die-hard fans.

Graphics, Soundtrack, and Theme

In Cheeky Fruits, the loading screen is a riot of pinks, purples and yellows, so it seems promising. However, the game's graphics are absolutely fine, but there's nothing new to see here. Once the reels appear on screen, it's clear G Gaming hasn't made any meaningful changes to the fruit theme. Cherries, plums, watermelon, stars, and Lucky Red 7s appear on the reels, all of which are as expected.

The theme has been around for decades, and it's a shame that G Gaming didn't take the initiative to really make it their own. It's not the graphics but the gameplay that make or break an online slots game, and for that, I believe G Gaming can't be faulted. The reels spin smoothly, and the game works seamlessly across a variety of devices, including desktops and mobiles.

The game's sounds are not what you would call a soundtrack since they are merely generic slots machine sounds. This is familiar territory, but many players find the noises annoying.

Volatility & RTP

A 96% RTP gives the house a 4% edge over the player, which seems reasonable enough to us. But be warned - this is a high-volatility game, so wins don't come around very often. You could end up losing your bankroll before you can start winning again if you're playing with a modest bankroll.

To determine your chances of spinning up a cash prize, we recommend playing the game extensively for free in the first instance.

Cheeky Fruits: How To Play:

1. Choose the amount you wish to wager on each spin.

2. The reels will automatically stop after pressing Spin.

3. You can speed up gameplay by hitting the lightning arrow just to the right of Spin.

4. Use the 'I' button at the top right corner of the screen to view the paytable.

Paytable Wins & Bet Sizes

There is a minimum wager of 0.20 per spin on Cheeky Fruits, and a maximum wager of 200.00 per spin.

There are several different payout levels depending on how many matching symbols you get across a payline. Depending on how many matching symbols you get across a payline, you can win multiples of your wager.

- Plum, Cherry, Orange, Lemon = 4x, 10x, 20x

- Star, Watermelon = 10x, 25x, 50x

- Lucky Number 7 = 20x, 50x, 100x

In place of the other symbols in the game, Scatter symbols do not have to conform to payline structures, so spinning up two examples in any position on the reels will pay 0.5x your wager. For three Scatter symbols to appear on the reels, you'll receive 3x your bet, and the bonus round will be initiated.

Free spins on Cheeky Fruits

Whenever the Scatter symbol appears on all three reels simultaneously, it triggers the Free Spins bonus round. Before you begin your Free Spins, one randomly selected symbol becomes super-sized, taking up the entire central three reels. And not surprisingly, this can result in hefty cash prizes.

Review of Overall

Those fans of traditional slot machines who crave some classic gaming action are likely to enjoy Cheeky Fruits warmly. From the graphics to the soundtrack, everything in the game is reminiscent of the earliest fruit machines. Despite the super-sized symbols of the bonus round, gamers who are looking for something a little different from their online slots will be better off looking elsewhere.
