Gave it another go because I had the balance for it. Happy I got into the draw, game still sucks..

Review:
Not a fan.
Seems very volatile, but volatile should also mean the potential of getting huge wins. I am not feeling the potential.
As I said earlier the big dropping blocks screwing you over makes things even worse.
Visuals + sounds are fine.
Final verdict: 5/10

So since I didn’t get an answer I’ll just post my potential entry just in case...
Like I mentioned I wasn’t able to play Hot Gems Xtreme but since I only deposited money for this promotion I hope it‘s fine that I played the normal version (Hot Gems) instead. I have no clue why the new version isn’t available for germans, but there are weird regulations for us right now so there is nothing that can surprise me anymore.
The site is called PartySlots instead of PartyCasino for Germans now because Germans aren’t able to play live casino games anymore. So it‘s only slots and the name of the site wasn’t fitting anymore. If I go to partycasino.com I get redirected to partyslots.de.
Ofc I didn’t try to get a big win for the big win competition since it’s a different game but on the random prize draw where it only matters to get a 30x win I think it’s not too much of a difference if I grinded that on the Xtreme or on the standard version.
However, I can only give feedback on the standard version of the game. It‘s much like Gonzo‘s Quest in the Bonus with increasing multiplier on each hit you get in one spin but after the spin it resets. Just one difference: the Top symbol is a scatter that pays without being lined up, so it might be easier to get a good hit with a decent multiplier during the bonus.
Since I like Gonzo I also like Hot Gems. I actually like it a little bit more than the standard version of Gonzo.
I‘d rate it 7/10, nothing too exciting but a decent slot I wouldn’t mind playing more often and I actually would play it if I was allowed to get a big win for the competition on it.
So I hope this counts for the random prize draw, if not it‘s fine aswell. Just trying after I deposited money for this promotion anyway, hope you don’t mind, just do whatever you‘d say is fair.

This game doesn't fit my style of slots. For some reason I got bored of the sounds and graphics really fast.
Nevertheless gave it a try and after 2 bonuses this is my best result (from base game mystery symbol):

Feels like a bootleg version of elks gold series slots. Graphics are poor but the sound aint to bad, the random fire feature misses to much and the random block drop is crazy annoying as it also misses alot but can also break ur next winning combo for a lose.

feedback:
as mentioned already this game is a clone of the elk series games.
i had 3 bonuses in a couple thousand spins, one paid 0x, one paid 0,5x and the third one was pretty bad too sadly.
for a game thats hard to bonus thats not a nice return.
the flame and big symbol drops miss 90% of the time which doesnt make me like this more either.
graphics and sounds are ok but overall the elk games are better imo.

Was pleased to see the UK eligible for one of the comps.
Review:
A clone of Ecuador gold, in some ways better, in others worse.
Very fond of Ecuador/Tahiti Gold - The graphic theme of Hot Gems is not to my taste.
The random features are much better implemented in Hot Gems then Ecuador Gold in my opinion - countless times in Ecuador I have the mobile wild waste a load of time moving around the last reels without any win materialising. In my experience the mystery feature in Hot Gems seems to be a bit fairer, it is possible for it to fail to hit, but most of the times it made a connection.
I understand peoples annoyance with the large blocks breaking a win as the fall, Playtech could easily fix this so it isn't possible to have this annoyance play out. These games work a particular way, it is just pretty pictures we are watching so have the pretty blocks that fall down indicating a win is coming this cascade, only to be destroyed by a big block that breaks the connection, well, make it so those pretty connecting cascading blocks are ones which DON'tT make a win.
This way the player will be thinking: hmm, no little blocks are connecting
oh but wait, the screen is shaking!!! maybe the big block will fall in the sweet spot!!! cha-ching!!! - oh, it didn't connect with anything, sadface, cry.
This is much preferable to: Hmm, got a win and ways have expanded, here comes the cascade!!, ooooh some little blocks have connected, I'm gonna get another cascade, max ways here I come, ooooh! screen is shaking too!!! this could be sweet!! hey?? wtf?!? That 3x3 block broke my existing connection and didn't connect with anything, sadface, cry, why would they program it like this? WHYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!
I don't know why, I like the game, but I don't like it when I am playing and my only conclusion is a that Playtech have overlooked a design flaw.
Was very surprised at Vanhoof's win as I never expected that kind of potential - Blows the Elk games out of the water with their stupid 2500x win caps.
Not so lucky myself

This game took ages to get going. Took a few hundred spins to warm up.
Just like everyone else says. It remind me of elk games. The flame feature is great if it covers alot of the page.
All in all I don't hate this game but I don't love it either. I may try it once more

Another great promo! Congratz to the winners.
Actually a decent game with potential as vanhooff showed us. A weird mixture between elk and mystery reels, but it works. Most excitement comes from a single or double drop random symbol.
7/10
Random draw: Partycasino 144x 20.11.20 @ 07.11

Woo hoo hoo!!
Believe or not, first promo in ages that I am netting a profit on if I place first.
Feels so good to be on top of the hill
As a matter of appreciation I pledge at least GBP 100 of these promo winnings to charity, through Nickslots stream.
A big thanks to all who provided us this promo: Casinogrounds, Partypoker, Playtech. Special thanks to Skylined.
