Fire Strike Slot Review

Released in October 2019, this game can be played at online casinos such as Rizk, Casumo or Guts.

Theme and general information

In many ways, Fire Strike is a very classic slot. The setup is simple across 5 reels and 10 paylines, which is not quite as classic as with most fruit slots. But the symbols, for the most part, are classic.

The prevailing colour scheme in this game is a deep red. Flaming fires burn in the background and we could either be staring into the pits of hell or simply at a fire pit whilst out camping. The whole setup is accompanied by swinging lounge music that is surprisingly lively.

The red, purple and blue 7 are the highest value symbols, paying out 100x, 50x and 30x our stake for 5 on a payline, respectively. The green diamond is still worth 25x our stake for such a win. There are also wads of cash, casino chips, card decks and dice on the reels as well as various bar symbols. Interestingly, a combination of all three 7 symbols still pays out 5x our stake for 5 of them.

The Fire Strike Wild symbol replaces all other symbols on the reels.

The Fire Strike symbol is a special symbol that we’ll explain below.

You can play this game from 0.10 to 50.00 per spin.

Collecting Fire Strike symbols for the jackpot

Most classic slots or fruit slots have one feature that allows you to win some sort of jackpot. In Fire Strike, it’s very much the same. The Fire Strike symbol itself pays out as soon as you get at least 6 of it anywhere on the reels.

The more you manage to get on the reels, the higher the payout will be.

• 6 of a kind awards 1x our stake.
• 7 of a kind awards 2x our stake.
• 8 of a kind awards 8x our stake.
• 9 of a kind awards 25x our stake.
• 10 of a kind awards 50x our stake.
• 11 of a kind awards 150x our stake.
• 12 of a kind awards 500x our stake.
• 13 of a kind awards 1,000x our stake.
• 14 of a kind awards 2,500x our stake.
• 15 of a kind awards 5,000x our stake.
• Jackpot: 15 Fire Strike Wild symbols awards the jackpot of 25,000x our stake

The problem, of course, is that you don’t get re-spins of any kind that could make it even remotely achievable to get more than 10 of the Fire Strike symbols in one spin. You will be able to get 6, 7 or 8 of the symbols at a time.

So, there are no free spins or bonus games, which is hardly surprising. And the jackpot seems to be rather elusive. But realistically it is possible to manage 500x our stake, which is already pretty good.

Conclusion: A simple slot that can be effective or frustrating

The theoretical RTP (Return to Player) of Fire Strike is 96.5%, which is pretty good for a slot of medium volatility. Generally speaking, you’ll see wins often enough, even if you don’t get all those Fire Strike symbols on the reels that you’ll be hankering for.

Your budget will take you far, if you play it right. With a little luck, you can take great wins home and despite its simplicity, the game can be quite effective.

But in the long run, it can also be very frustrating when you have played hundreds of spins without ever getting more than 10 Fire Strike symbols at a time.
