Knowing your pick axe from your cactus is a good skill to have in this good old Wild West prospecting game: the Diamond Mine Megaways slot.
Blueprint Gaming – those slots gurus behind games like the Fishin’ Frenzy slot and Ted- have created a game that’s a winner for those of you who want to try their luck at hitting the big time by mining your own gems!
But watch out – this is a volatile slot with a Megaways mechanic. There are features galore here when you compare it to more traditional games like the Fluffy Too slot or even the Bar Bar Black sheep.
They have gone bonus mad on this one! That’s Blueprint for you.

Diamond Mine Megaways Look and Feel
The reels are set against a rugged red mountain mine with cacti framing the action on the reels. The whole vibe is the Wild Frontier with its characters trying to make their fortune pitted against the elements- and hoping for some big diamonds and some serious cash along the way.
The soundtrack is good, with twanging strings and good old Southern music which makes for a lively background to game play. It’s right up there with other Blueprint classics like the Magic Ian slot machine and King Kong cash.

Diamond Mine Game Play
The Diamond Mine slot turns the table on the usual game design rules with its expanded six reels and seven rows. The other twist in the action is that some of the icons are bigger than others.
And then there are the Ways to Win- a mind bending 117,649 of them- that’s sky high.
The icons are straight out of the Wild West playbook, with a big sparkling diamond (land 6 on a pay-line and earn a 50x your bet treat), a gnarly white bearded miner, a mining lamp and a pair of crossed pickaxes. The lower value icons are the Ace through 9 of the card deck in a colourful old fashioned font.
Wild West
The game’s Wild is a lit stack of dynamite which only appears on the top row of the slot and which substitutes for all icons except the Scatter – which is the overflowing bag of gold.
Look out for the explosive mystery symbol: a big barrel of TNT! While this sounds dangerous it’s a bit of a gift because it can land at random in both the base and bonus games and will transform into other icons to help you to make wining combos- so let the fireworks begin!
Cascading Cash
After a winning combo lands, the winning line crumbles, cascading to reveal a new line of icons.
Frontier Free Spins
You can unearth more riches by landing four Scatters across the reels, which will unlock twelve free spins- if you’re lucky and land further Scatters in this mode then each one will gift you a further five spins. Kerching!
And then there’s the Endless Multiplier. During the free spins round you earn a 1x multiplier each time you win and cause a cascade of icons to fall- and this will keep accumulating if you’re on a winning streak- which could be a pure gold rush!
Conclusion
The Diamond Mine Megaways slot is a volatile game that can churn out some decent runs with those re-spins, with the Endless Multiplier feature and the cascading wins.
When a game is designed with this many Ways to Win it’d be rude not to have a go.
