Instant Inferno Slots

Instant Inferno was released in early 2021 to positive acclaim. The graphics are modern and stunningly designed. The animations are enticing, and look polished. Instant Inferno draws its inspiration from old-school slot games, and brings to mind lucky 7 and bar symbol-based slots with updated graphics. The main background of the game is vibrant, but not overly complicated. It'll catch your attention without monopolizing it, The background music is blues adjacent, almost traditional rock and roll.

The game features a plethora of memorable symbols. They're all old fashioned and include cherries, bar symbols, bells, lucky 7s, and more.  The game is played on five reels and features three rows of symbols. There are 30 total pay lines, and these lines cannot be adjusted at any point. Winnings are awarded from left to right on any valid line. Like most games, the highest-paying combination will award a win.

Symbols 

As previously stated, this is an old-school-style slot machine. To land a match, you need to trigger three matching symbols. They have cherries, bells, bar symbols, single bars, double bars, 7 combos, double 7s, triple 7s, and wilds. The wild symbol will sub for any symbol except for the instant scatter, the premium scatter and any other bonus scatters. The premium scatter is represented as a 'Premium Inferno' symbol, and they can appear anywhere on the reels. The scatter symbol is represented as a flame and reads 'instant inferno' on it. This symbol appears on any reel. Landing three symbols will multiply your bet by 1.5x, while landing nine symbols will multiply your bet by 3000x, and there are other rewards in between the two extremes, naturally. The bonus symbol is displayed as a flaming cauldron, and this symbol appears on reels two, three, and four. If you decide to auto play, you have plenty of options. You can kick back and auto spin 10, 25, 59, or 100 times before you have to press the space bar again! The minimum bet is 0.30 cents, while the maximum bet is $150 per spin.

Special Features

This game has a Pick Me Mini Game, which I briefly mentioned above. When you trigger the Pick Me Mini Game, you'll be presented with 20 tiles. Players need to pick one at a time to reveal their prizes. If three tiles are uncovered with the same prize on them, the player is awarded that prize along with a multiplier and some free spins. The amount of free spins along with the multiplier will vary with each tile uncovered. It's also possible that you'll retrigger free spins, too. The round ends when the player has no more free spins, or when they reach 50 free spins.

Final Thoughts

Instant Inferno is perfect for the casual player who wants to try out a simple slot with modern graphics. The theme is fun, and the soundscape compliments the general game play and overall slot very well. Fire and fruit symbols are nothing new, but Instant Inferno incorporates their unique style into the cliche theme.
