Slot Mechanics, Features & How It Works
Played on a 5-reel grid with 30 fixed paylines, wins need three or more matching symbols starting from the leftmost reel. A flaming dollar sign acts as the Wild, while the Free Spins icon serves as the Scatter, triggering 10-20 free spins with a 2x payout multiplier and retriggers. The paid Re-spin feature lets players pay to respin a single reel for bigger wins.
RTP, Volatility & Max Win Potential
The default RTP is 97.5%, with bets ranging from £0.30 to £112.50 per spin. Max win reaches £14,666,666; a top £112.50 bet can trigger that full jackpot-sized payout.
Volatility is High, rewarding patient play with rare but massive wins atop a modest, nostalgic design. Lab Score: 9.3/10.
