Little Gem by Pragmatic — RTP & Analytics

Little Gem by Pragmatic Play is a 3-reel slot with 5 fixed paylines, requiring three-of-a-kind combinations from left to right for wins. Base game symbols include fruits, diamonds, and wilds; the wild substitutes for all except money symbols and expands vertically to cover its entire reel when part of a winning line, paying up to 50x the stake for three. The Hold & Spin feature triggers when three gold or silver money symbols (1x-20x bet) land on the middle reel, locking them in place while other symbols fade, awarding 4 respins that reset to 4 each time a new money symbol lands on outer reels. Diamond money symbols (100x-500x bet) appear only on reels 1 and 3 during respins, contributing to totals up to 2,460x stake. Visuals feature simple yet animated gems and sparkles against a classic fruit machine backdrop with bottom menus for controls. It stands out by blending retro 3-reel simplicity with a high-impact Hold & Spin mechanic, medium volatility for balanced hits (1 in 20 spins), and RTP around 96.7%, though variants exist down to 95.65%. No additional base game modifiers or buys are present, focusing payouts on the respin round.
