Stakelogic has launched its latest collaborative effort, Hot Chilliways, with partner Hurricane Games by way of its popular Greenlogic Program and you can bet the new release is muy caliente, with its exciting Super Stake feature and €480,000 max win! Can you handle the heat of this high volatility spinner?!
Delivering red hot wins, the 6-reel, 3-7-row Latin America-inspired video slot has 729-117,649 paylines, 96.01 percent return to player (RTP) and a x30,000 max multiplier. Regular bets range from 20 p/c to £/€10, and doubles when activating the Super Stake feature, which increases the likelihood of winning free spins.
To start, there are 3 rows and 729 win ways, and as per the norm, winning combinations are formed by landing at least three matching symbols from left to right on consecutive reels starting from the leftmost reel. Regarding symbols, in ascending order they are 9-A card ranks, followed by a tomato, corn on the cob, a cactus, Mexican sombrero, and a calavera/skull. Landing a three to six-of-a-kind symbol combination awards 0.80 to 7.20 for the low pays, while the high pays are worth 4.00 to 80.00 the same way.
As wining combinations are formed, the cascade feature removes those symbols involved from the board, filling the empty positions with new symbols which drop down into place. This process continues until winning combinations no longer form.
Sizzling Game Features:
In addition to the regular pay symbols, the game also offers a few extras, including the Wild Red and Wild Green Chilli and scatter symbols.
During base gameplay, the Wild Red Chilli symbol can land anytime and when they do, the 3 symbols on the reel drop down and 4 symbols are deposited overhead. Now there are a total of 7 symbols on the reel and more ways to win.
Once the reel has expanded, the Wild Red Chilli becomes a wild and substitutes for all symbols except for scatters. Still in the base game, the Wild Red Chilli also sees an x2 added to the total Multiplier, and then applied to wins at the end of that particular round.
Moving on to the Wild Green Chilli, when this symbol lands, the number of symbols on that particular reel increases from three to six. The three symbols on the reel are split into two, including the Wild Green Chilli. Once the adjustment to the reels has been made, the Wild Green Chilli acts as the wild. The reel is set back to three symbols high for the next spin.
Free Spins:
Turning up the heat even more, the game also features a Free Spins bonus, which can be triggered by landing 3, 4, 5, or 6 scatter symbols on the same spin. When that happens, players are awarded 12, 16, 20, or 24 free spins, respectively. Prior to Free Spins starting, players can choose to gamble them via the Gamble Wheel in an attempt to win even more.
If the dial stops on the Green segment of the wheel, the player is awarded additional free spins, up to 30, however, if the dial should land in the Red segment, the player loses free spins, with the worst case scenario would be all of them lost.
While in the free spins bonus round, the Wild Red Chilli symbol sees the addition of a multiplier ranging from x2 to x100. If additional scatter symbols land in the bonus round, free spins can be retriggered. And, depending on the region, players who don’t want to wait for the free spins bonus to be activated naturally can choose the Buy Bonus at a cost of 100x their current stake.
Feel the Fire:
Commenting on the new online slot, Olga Bajela, Chief Commercial Officer for Stakelogic, said the following via company news…
“Phwoar. Hot Chilliways packs some serious heat but for those that can handle it, some really spicy wins await. This is a slot that cooks up tremendous big win potential through the game’s bonus features, and will absolutely leave a slight burning sensation.
“It is also another great example of what can be achieved when two studios collaborate through our Greenlogic® Programme, so congratulations to the Hurricane Games team for coming up with the recipe for this one. It really is a spicy slot indeed.”
