In the not-so-distant past, software developers tended to stay within ‘locked boxes’ when designing slot machines. When a developer wanted to design a retro-inspired slot, it did so by the book.
In the not-so-distant past, software developers tended to stay within ‘locked boxes’ when designing slot machines. When a developer wanted to design a retro-inspired slot, it did so by the book.
Likewise, those looking to design video slots did so by the book. Nevertheless, Play n’ GO chose to abandon that concept with Fire Joker. In designing the Fire Joker slot, it creatively blended elements from classic slots and those from modern video slots. Play n’ GO creatively blended elements from classic slots and modern video slots in designing the Fire Joker slot, resulting in a hybrid game that accommodates lovers of both types of slots. Quick sneak peek - the classic elements come as three reels and 5 win lines while bonus features evidence the video slot elements. For more info on the slot, let’s jump into the finer details.
Not surprisingly, Fire Joker’s graphics are nothing to write home about. In designing the game, Play n’ GO opted for a simple red wall, which is beautified by patterned gold lines. The 3 x 3 grid sits at the centre of the screen and it’s also wholly covered by a dark shade of red. The game’s Spin button, bet options tab and link to the pay table all appear beneath the playing grid.
Fire Joker is a medium to high volatility slot. All players who give this game a try, therefore, need to note that when spinning the reels, winning combinations will (relatively) not land frequently. However, once they land, handsome payouts are highly likely on each win line. As such, in preparing for a gaming session, players should ensure that their bankroll supports them for a sizeable long time. This, of course caused by the need to cover the dry spells that may occur.
In preparing the bankroll, players need to be cognizant of the supported bet options. You can find a paltry 0.05 coins at the lower end of the bet options tab. Essentially, this makes Fire Joker a true penny slot. Well, those who aren’t into wagering pennies can go all on and wager a high of 100.00 coins in each spin. There are many flexible bet options in between the minimum and maximum bets, which ensure that mid-range players can find something desirable and pocket friendly.
With spinning the reels, players can opt to spin reels manually or automatically. Those who prefer the former just need to click the Spin button after each spin. This is beautiful because it keeps players glued to the action every single second. Alternatively, players can enable the auto-play feature by clicking the corresponding button below the playing grid. The beauty of this is that it gives players the chance to take a back seat and relax as the reels spin automatically.
Well, you can do all the above, from properly structuring the bankroll to assessing the best spin option for free. Players looking to grab this opportunity should opt to play in demo mode. Doing so will see them receive free wagering credits to spin the reels for free.
With a theoretical return to player percentage pegged at 96.15%, players can expect great returns during their gaming session, as the RTP is above the industry average. The developers set the max payout at a cool 800x the bet. Compared with modern slots, the max payout is not so high, but when one considers that Fire Joker is a classic slot which was released several years back, its low max payout is understandable.
