Diamond Collector — AP Overview
AP Checklist
- Start with the fast scan: Diamonds 12+
- Diamond Collector features a free spins bonus that gets triggered once 15 diamonds are collected.
- The free spins bonus feature can either be triggered by collecting 15 diamonds or by landing two free spins scatter symbols on reels two and four.
- Diamond Collector has five RTP settings that range from 85.28% to 94.26%. So the settings for the particular game you are playing could have a big impact on the playable numbers. I’ve seen other recommendations from APs to play this at 10 or 11 diamonds, but I think sticking with 12 is a safer play unless you know the machine you are playing has one of the higher RTP settings.
Exit Rule
Walk away after the free spins bonus triggers, then re-check the diamond counter before continuing.
