If you are looking for a slot that has very little of the Vegas slot machine vibe (no dazzling animations, no sounds) and only offers the basics, then Black diamond, a 3-reel 9-payline slot from Texas game developers Everi is your best bet. It makes up for the lack of excessive glitz with incredibly decent payouts, which, after all, is what players really want from a slot machine. The fact that it was built for a land casino may explain its unique simplicity.

Theme

Black Diamond was designed to give a more traditional slot, with little input from the modern world. Unlike other slot designers who go all out with 3D animations and graphics to provide an aesthetic feel, the slot actually looks incredibly simple. The slot has a feel of the olden Vegas mechanical machines and only has the bare necessities. The designers seemed to focus more on the features of the game than the exterior. You will spot plenty of old school symbols (BARs, 7s, diamonds) and when you strike a winning combination, alarm bells will alert you.

How to play black diamond

Just like any other Everi slot, Black Diamond is a simple, easy to play game that both beginners and veterans will enjoy. However, there are plenty of extras to anticipate. The game has nine selectable paylines. You can stake anywhere between 1-27 credits per spin, and if you want a shot at the jackpot, playing max bet will be your best option. You can play the game for free to get an overall feel of the game or visit an online casino to play for real cash.

Symbols and bonuses to anticipate

Black Diamond has plenty of prizes waiting for its fans on the reels, starting with the higher paying triple blue 7s and gold double 7s, which will give you 300-150x your line stake if they land on an active payline respectively.  The second-highest paying are the red 7s and double BAR symbols with 90x and 60x multipliers. Blue 7s, gold double 7s and a red 7 plus three BAR symbols form a winning combination with a 30x multiplier. A mixed combination of BAR symbols is the lowest paying combination, with a 9x multiplier.

In this game, each symbol has a multiplier of its own which means that regardless of your winning combination, there will be a bonus multiplier of up to 30x for your accrued winnings. Each symbol’s unique multiplier may be added to another multiplier to increase your wins. The triple 7s, double 7s, and double BAR symbols have 5x multipliers, 7 and BAR have a 3x multiplier while a 2x can be given to a random symbol on the reels.

The black diamond is the wild symbol, and also comes with a unique bonus feature. At less than max bet, it may replace all but the symbols with multipliers, and pays out 300-5000 credits for landing three or more on an active payline.

On max-bet, the black diamond symbol is associated with the progressive jackpots (minor and major) where landing three black diamonds on lines 1-8 gets you the smaller jackpot while all three on payline 9 will award you the heftier major jackpot.

Conclusion:

Black diamond is a traditional Vegas-inspired slot that leaves out all the glitz and replaces it with plenty of lucrative features. This game is an excellent choice for players who prefer a straightforward game without confusing side shows or dozens of paylines to track. Again, with an RTP of 95.95%, you cannot go wrong with this Everi slot.
