Gameplay

Whatever cartoon-like the characters and the reels look, the slot touches your heart immediately. The theme does this magic regardless of the fact that this is just a game online. The thing is that firefighters are those next door heroes whose chest-thumping and jokes accompany their everyday risking their lives. So the slot wins your heart from the first glance.

The game is always played at 30 paylines and a cost of a spin is fixed at 40 coins. You may adjust though a coin value within quite a broad range from $1 up to a limit you like. Thus your total bet starts at a minimum of $40 and runs as far as your budget allows. This means that high rollers are gladly welcome to try this firefighting slot and may enjoy really high stakes and terribly huge wins! No more adjustments are needed to click Spin and set the reels in motion and excitement on fire. All the rest is done by Firehouse Hounds and they are good at what they do. Prepare to meet winning lines and lavish features!

The slot is equipped with an autoplay feature. Select from 10 to 50 spins and it plays them one by one unless you stop it or a bonus feature is won. An autoplay feature runs at a bet you place in a base game or a bet you select specially for an autoplay game.

Slot symbols

The gameplay and features are running with 11 non-feature symbols, a wild icon and a scatter. Non-feature symbols are represented by all sorts of essential firefighting stuff including Axes, Firehose reels, Fire Extinguishers, First Aid Kits filled with bones, Fire Hydrants and Firefighter’s Helmets. These non-feature symbols pay from x5 to x 150 a coin value. There are also 5 Sevens of 5 different colors and patterns, which are also non-feature symbols with higher payouts running from x15 to x500. Besides, there is a feature similar to that realized in IGT’s Double Diamond slot: any five Sevens in a combination pay x40 a coin value. This means that 5 non-matching Sevens pay you the minimum of $40.

In all game modes non-feature symbols pay out either way, from left to right or from left to right, but not both ways. This means that when you land 5 matching symbols on a line, you win once and earn a payout for 5 matching icons. In a base game non-feature symbols pay when you land 3, 4 or 5 matching icons on a payline. To help you win as much as possible there are Wild symbols, Wild reels and a bonus free spin.

Firefighter’s aid: Wild icons and Wild reels

A Wild icon substitutes for any non-feature symbol. Yet there is more you can get from a Wild. In this slot it is equipped with the improved functionality. It is a Wild Fire feature: on any spin reel 1 or/and 5 may turn Wild. Firehouse Hounds pour water on the reels and water transforms them into Wild reels. The feature happens at random regardless of any combinations or triggering symbols. Firehouse Hounds aim their hoses at the reels and make reel 1 or/and 5. This feature is especially helpful in view of the fact that the slot pays either way, from the leftmost to the rightmost reel or vice versa, from right to left. Besides, this feature is always on during a free spin bonus mode.

Wild Fire Free Spin Bonus feature

A Fire Alarm is a Bonus Scatter with extended functions. A Bonus Scatter appears on central reels only, that is on reel 2, 3 or 4. Landing 3 Bonus Scatters in any position on any 3 central reels triggers a free spin bonus mode. You are offered a selection of fire poles, make your choice and reveal 4, 5 or 6 free spins.

These 4, 5 or 6 free spins are played with reel 1 and reel 5 made completely wild (and the slot pays either way, so a win is almost inevitable). Secondly, Scatter is a paying symbol in its own right. Each set of 3 Scatters you land on the reels in a triggering spin or during free spins pays you x30 a coin value in addition to all possible line wins! Thirdly, the feature is retriggerable in a free spin mode: every time you land 3 Scatters on central reels you are awarded 4, 5 or 6 free spins and a cash prize (x30 a coin value). The number of free spins is capped at 200 free spins in a row. Entire reel 1 and 5 are wild during free spins. This is a great and rewarding feature designed to help you win as much cash as possible.

A free spin mode runs with reel 1 and 5 entirely wild and you have the chance to retrigger free spins. However, you cannot change your bet: a coin value is adjustable only in a base game but not in a free spin mode. Having weighed the chances and winning capacities of the slot, it becomes clear that you have to target a free spin mode. Yet it pays really well if you place really high bets. Think of it and make a right choice when setting a bet for a base game. This is why you play for real money in an online casino: to win it big and real!
