Ray of Light happens to be one of the most recent releases from Section 8 Studios. While the game’s name comes from the brightly coloured gems that fill the reels, the bonus rounds and jackpot are just as likely to make you see the light at the end of the tunnel with its massive wins. Graphically, the game is simply designed and straightforward. It uses a space like atmosphere, which appears behind the reels. This choice of colour is meant to blend in with the games symbols and tone down the brightness, making it easy for you to play for hours on end.
About Ray of Light Slot
Space themed slots might be becoming very common, with nearly 90% of all software developers having a title or two with the space theme in their catalogue. However, Ray of Light Slot seems to be something different, and immediately you play this game, you’ll realize that there’s something extraordinary about it.
The game is one of the few that can bring sunshine in your life by giving you an opportunity of winning a fortune! Firing up the reels will reveal the valuable gemstones that keep coming and going on the game’s 5 tumbling reels. These symbols appear as if they are floating around the dark hole; and like any dark hole, no one knows the end.
However, there’s one fact – the game’s sky blue diamonds, purple amethysts, yellow pentagons and red rubies will work in harmony to ensure you walk away with the game’s top prize, which is offered by the jackpot. Also, we know that classic slot lovers will enjoy playing Ray of Light as it also features symbols from the classic machines such as the BARs and 7s symbols.
Ray of Light Slot Mechanics
Ray of Light follows the same layout found in most of the other video slot games. It has 5 reels, 3 rows and 10 paylines (which you can easily adjust to fit your style of play). Placing a bet on Ray of Light slot has been made easy, using the controls found beneath the reels.
You can choose to stake from a low €0.01 per spin and increase the bet up to a maximum of €400 per spin. With the Autoplay and basic spin control buttons, Ray of Light is an easy and straightforward game to play and offers impressive wins from time to time.
Unlike most of the other slot games developed by Section 8 Studios, Ray of Light uses the ‘both ways win’ mechanism. This means that all symbols in the game pay right to left and left to right as long as they are lined up on successive reels starting from either the rightmost or leftmost reel. This increases your chances of winning more even while playing with the lowest bet.
In-game Features
Ray of Light Wild Symbol: Majority of the slot games online have a wild symbol, but few can offer a unique expanding wild like Ray of Light slot. Unlike most of the other games that need the wild symbol to be part of the winning combination to expand, in Ray of Light, the wild needs only to appear anywhere on the 2nd, 3rd or 4th reels to expand and start forming winning combinations by substituting for all the other symbols.
Once the wild symbol has expanded, it triggers the re-spin feature, and they hold their position on the reels. Should another wild symbol appear on the reels, it will again trigger the re-spin feature as well as expand to occupy a whole reel.
The expanding wild and re-spin feature can go on up to a maximum of three times after which all the wins are calculated and credited to your account.
In addition to the expanding wild feature, Ray of Light slot also has two other special features.
- The progressive jackpot that’s randomly triggered
- The Ray combo feature that combines different symbols on the reels using the ray feature to create more wins
Conclusion
We enjoyed playing Ray of Light slot, which incorporates a theme seen in NetEnt’s Dazzle Me slot or Starburst Slot. However, Section 8 Studio has taken the game to a whole new level with their unique expanding wild feature, which lands from time to time. Therefore, if you are tired of having to play the same old NetEnt Starburst, Dazzle Me, Neon Staxx or Twin Spin Slots, we recommend that you try this one.
