Down in the fiery pits of hell, there’s a set of chilli peppers ready to give you Hot, Hot, Hot wins in this Hot Pots slot.
Hot Pots is a 5×3 reel 20 payline slot game with wild symbols and three types of scatter, which can trigger 8 to 16 free spins where you can get random wild boosts and lots of respins, but all with a low RTP of 93.31%.
An RTP that low should mean a high top win, but it doesn’t. The Hot Pots mobile slot only has a top win of 4,000x your bet. Now, that’s a good win in any high to mid variance game, which this is.
But usually, you get an RTP of over 95%, not unlike the Rich Wilde and the Book of Dead slot or the Pacific Gold review. At 93.31% is there any hope of getting any wins at all?
We know this may sound like a weird thing to say when we gave this Hot Pots slot review a low 1 star, but hear us out. There’s a little super stake button that when you turn it on doubles your bet and double your chance of catching the bonus features.
And in the base game you can randomly get a single hot chilli symbol and get:
It definitely helps elevate what is a pretty poor paytable to start with. But really, all it does is make you forget, for a little while, that you are not actually winning very much at all.
What do you get if you find 3 scatters on reels 1, 3, and 5 in this Hot Pots slot game? You catch 8 to 16 free spins. About the only addition is that if you find that little devil, you’ll get the wild boost symbols as above with but 1, 2 or 3 respin.
That’s it.
On the bright side, it means that you can win the Hot Pots slot top win of 4,000x your bet in the base game or in the free spins. It also means that it doesn’t feel that thrilling when you catch the bonus games.
All in all, with having to double your bet to get half the result of mobile slot games such as the Secret of Dead slot or Warp Wreckers Power glyph slot… well, you know what to do.

Wild: The Demon is the wild symbol and substitutes for all symbols except for scatter, super scatter, mega scatter, and hot chilli symbol.
Hot Chilli Symbol: The Hot Chilli symbol in view triggers 1 of 3 different wild boost bonuses:
Bonus Scatter Symbols: The hot pot is the scatter symbol and appears on reels 1, 3, and 5. The super scatter and the mega scatter appear on reel 3 only.
3 scatters during the bonus will retrigger the free spins. After a wild boost features, respins will also be awarded.
Super Stake: Double your bet for extra chances of hitting insanely valuable winning combinations. You are more likely to hit special reels, wild boost, and scatters.
Gamble Feature: After every winning combination, the gamble feature can be activated, you can play a simple game to bet on the next card on the deck. Guess the colour and you'll win double your bet. Guess the suit and you'll quadruple your original wins.
These Demon chillis try and capture your attention, and for a short while, they just about do it. Until you go into the details of this Hot Pots slot.
A low RTP of 93.31% and the fact you have to double your bet just to make this game pay out, makes it impossible for us to recommend it.
It's a shame because on paper it really works. You have four wild boost bonuses and you have free spins with re-spins giving you value for money.
Except it doesn't. Time to go play on the Candyways Bonanza slot or read our Fruits Gone Wild Supreme review.
