The Queen of Embers slot has an imaginative theme and some great wins, but can you ride the tiger out of this boiling lava? It’s not going to be easy.
That’s right. A tiger. Which is the wild symbol in a land surrounded by lakes of lava, mountains of fire, meteors, and red crystals that sparkle in blood.
This is not a friendly land, but boy is it good to look at, not unlike your host, the Queen of Embers herself who is the scatter symbols. We’re not sure what slot theme this is meant to be, but it sure looks good, and that’s all the matters to us.
Could it have done with a few more animations to animate the base game? Probably. But then, this isn’t about wandering around the lava looking at Ace to 10 symbols. This is about catching that tiger and riding out of here as fast as you can.
In the base game, the stacks of wilds are impressive but hard to catch. They show up on all reels except the first one.
Without them, the base game feels a little slow, mostly because this Queen of Embers slot game has 243 ways to win, and you need multiple 4 or 5 of a kind wins to get the kind of high thrill wins that will have you dancing around the campfire.
Thankfully that’s where the free spins bonus comes into play. Get 3 or more scatters and you’ll get 8 to 16 free spins, but what makes this exciting is that the reels are now littered with wild symbols.
They don’t grow like in the 50 Dragons slot or the Xmas Magic game review. Instead, you’ll get a set number of 65, 70 or 75 extra wilds to your bonus games, increasing the chances of catching wins of over 1,000x your bet.
The thing about this queen is that she may look beautiful, but she’s a dangerous one to play with. This is not the most volatile of slot games (that belongs to the likes of the Dead or Alive II slot or Bonanza Megaways slot), but it will burn you if you’re not careful.
Ultimately, this Queen of Embers slot review only gets a 3-star is not because it’s simple, but because getting those tigers to line up took more effort than we had patience or money.
There are plenty of fiery wins here, and we can certainly see ourselves returning on the odd day when we have 5 minutes to dance in lava.
But make sure you set yourself a number of spins or a budget and walk away if this lady and her pussycat are being difficult.
