Alien Fruits 3 at Duell: what a sequel's help screen tells you
The cover of Alien Fruits 3 is hard to forget: a red strawberry with octopus tentacles, wide eyes and yellow glasses against a deep-blue background. The "3" suggests the game belongs to a series. That is about all the title tells you. We have no confirmed source for the studio, payout rate or features, so this guide sticks to what you can check yourself.
Sequels do not inherit their numbers
It is tempting to assume a third instalment works like the first two. Studios often change the reel layout, features and maths between versions, and even the same title can be installed with different payout settings at different casinos. Treat any figure you remember from an earlier game as unknown until you have read this one's rules.
Finding the help screen
Look for a small "i", a question mark or a three-line menu icon. Open it before the first spin, not after something surprising has happened. It usually lists the payout rate of the installed version, the paytable at your current stake, the rules for any features and often a maximum win.
| Write down | Why |
|---|---|
| Payout rate (RTP) | Long-run average; distinguishes versions |
| Minimum and maximum stake | Decides how many spins your budget buys |
| Feature rules | How bonus rounds trigger and what they can pay |
| Maximum win | A very high cap usually means many empty spins |
What a payout rate really means
A payout rate of 96% means the game returns 96 of every 100 staked over a very large number of spins; the remaining 4 is the house's share. Over one evening anything can happen. The figure is not a promise of what you get back, but a description of what the game keeps on average.
Go to the offerA simple session plan
Worked example: set aside 30 units and play 0.10 per spin — that is 300 spins if nothing came back, usually more because small wins stretch a session. Decide two exit points before you start: when the balance hits zero, and when it reaches, say, 60. The second is the harder one to keep.
