This Fire Strike slot has 5 reels and 10 paylines full of classic 7s and Vegas symbols, with a wild symbol and a scatter that pays out huge.
Some slot games are so simple, one sentence is all it takes to describe the game. And the above really is IT. There’s no secret bonus, no special features, no free spins bonus to hunt.
What you see is what you get with this Fire Strike mobile slot, and there’s something wonderfully charming about that.
If you are bored of trying to figure out how Megaways slots work or trying to hunt down the 3 bonus games in the Conan slot review, then this Pragmatic Play machine is for you.
And we mean that in look as well as in feel. The high paying symbols are 3 different coloured 7s, which can also pay when three of any colour show up… as the lowest paying symbol.
Then you have the emerald, cash, casino chips, deck of cards and dice as the mid paying symbols, followed by the three low paying ‘Bars’.
In short, Fire Strike video slot looks like a classic fruit machine out of Vegas, and to be honest, other than the 10 paylines and the extra 2 reels, that’s what this is. A slightly bigger classic slot.
The confusing bit is that the Fire Strike logo is both the wild and the scatter. The only difference is that one has ‘wild’ underneath and the other doesn’t.
The wild symbol replaces any other symbol in order to create a win. The other one is the scatter and comes stacked. Great news you say? Well yes, but you need 6 on-screen, or two reels full of Fire Strike slot symbols, to get just 1x your bet.
Which is frustrating, but once you start getting more than 6 scatters things get very interesting. In fact, get 15 scatters on all 5 reels and you’ll get a decent 2,500x your bet.
It’s not easy, but for a mid variance game with a good paytable, that’s one hell of a jackpot that feels strangely achievable – for more than other in-game jackpots like the Aurora Wilds slot or Cirque Du Soleil Amaluna slot by Bally.

Fire Strike Wild: The word 'Fire Strike' with a 'wild' underneath is the wild symbol. You'll understand why we need to describe it so carefully in a moment.
It acts as all wild symbols do, which is to replace any other symbol in a winning line combination.
Fire Strike Scatter: Not the Fire Strike slot logo, on it's own, is the special scatter symbol which pays regardless of where it is on the screen. The more you find, the bigger your cash prize. They do come stacked across all reels.
It would have been nice to see some results with just 3 scatters on screen, but that's not up to us, but down to the how Pragmatic slots work.
We edged on the border of giving this Fire Strike slot review either 3 stars or 4 stars, and finally decided we had a good enough time to give it the higher grade.
It has a good paytable, that pays out big enough often enough that you have hope in your heart to catch those Fire Strike scatters.
But we'd also understand if you found this real money slot frustrating and a little boring, mostly because you only have wilds over 10 paylines and the occasional stacked scatter to keep you occupied. 10 payline slots tend to be simple, like in the Rich Wilde and the Book of Dead or the iconic NetEnt Dead or Alive game, but not this simple.
Fire Strike is an odd mix of a game. Meant for those who are able to enjoy classic slots, but fancy playing with a few more reels.
