Mighty Hot Wilds Slot Machine
Mighty Hot Wilds slots is a five-reel, 30-payline game developed by the team at Inspired Gaming. It is a classic-themed slot, featuring several fruit machine symbols. In descending order of value, the icons are; a crown, a watermelon, a gold bell, a burning seven, red cherries, a lemon, an orange, a grape, and a blueberry. There is also a wild, which is coloured blue, that will substitute for all other symbols. The game features one bonus round, the Hot Spins feature, which is essentially a free spins mode.
With the likes of NetEnt, IGT, and Yggdrasil Gaming knocking about, it’s easy to forget that there are other developers out there. Inspired Gaming might not be a household name, but a famous reputation doesn’t necessarily guarantee a great slot game. Mighty Hot Wilds is a classical slot; it is based on decades-old fruit machines and sticks to this theme in as authentic a way as possible. From the symbols to the interface and reel animations, this slot’s gameplay looks like it was taken directly from an old school fruit machine. Unlike most other games of this genre, however, it includes a bonus round that is quite complex but can still be greatly rewarding.
Visuals and Layout
Don’t start spinning with the expectation that this game will hold up against more contemporary styled titles. There are no cinematic intros, computer-generated graphics, or 3D animations, but Inspired Gaming has still managed to make the display engaging enough. The background is a static image with blue and orange fire, with some of the symbols exploding at the sides. Easily the most visually satisfying aspect of the game is the bonus round. This will see the number of reel sets quadruple so that there is a total of four, and each will spin simultaneously. The result won’t be the same on every reel, but it is delightful seeing so many reels and symbols all going at the same time.
Now you know the symbols look good, you’re probably wondering if the value is up to scratch. Well, most classic slots make up for their lack of features with high paying symbols and Mighty Hot Wilds is no different. The most valuable icon in the whole game is the crown, which will award a juicy payout worth 250x your stake for a five-of-a-kind win. The next highest is the burning seven, which will offer 50x. After that comes the watermelon, and the bell, both of which are worth 40x. The grape, and the blueberries will pay out 20x your stake, while the remaining symbols, the orange, lemon, and the cherries are worth 10x.
Bonus Features
Hot Spins
Instead of the typical triggering requirement of landing a certain number of scatter symbols, this feature is unlocked any time you land a win worth four times your stake or higher. You will then be treated to not one, but four sets of reels, all of which will spin simultaneously. Not only does this give you a much bigger playing space, but wilds take on a special effect in this round. Any you land will be duplicated on the other three-reel sets, thus increasing the chance of landing those all-important wins. A metre to the side of the reels will let you know how many spins you have left.
