It plays on 5 reels and 3 rows with just 5 paylines in the base game.

How 243 Crystal Fruits Reversed plays
The symbols are classic fruit machine icons and a lucky seven, all given a crystal finish. With only five paylines active in the base game, much of the interest lies in getting the wild into a win.
- 243 wild: lands only on reels 2, 3 and 4 and substitutes for every symbol.
- No scatter or free spins: the wild is the only special symbol, and the Reversed Respin is the game’s one feature.
Tom Horn Gaming rates the volatility as high, so results can swing more than in a lower-volatility fruit game.
The Reversed Respin
The respin starts whenever a winning combination includes the wild. The game then switches from its five lines to 243 ways, which opens up many more ways for the next result to pay.
The twist is in the name. In the original 243 Crystal Fruits, winning symbols exploded. Here they lock in place, the other symbols clear away, and new ones fill the gaps for a respin around the locked win. Each respin that lands a new win earns another, and the multiplier rises with each respin until it reaches 5x, which ends the feature.
That makes the five-line base game a stepping stone: the 243-ways grid and the multipliers only appear inside the feature.
