Hot 7 Wheel Slots

PlayPearls is well known for creating unusual slot machines, with Lizard Disco being a primary example of this, but they also do classic designs just as well. Better in fact, and so we bring to you Hot 7 Wheel, 25 paylines and 5 reels of retro gaming that you can play anytime anywhere. 

With a lot of slot machines that fall into the classic market, they can look quite flat and barely stimulate us, but not here, oh no. Here we have flaming reels of vivid hues alongside some fiery cash prizes. Dripping in red and burning up into a frenzy, this matrix will have you experiencing heat like never before. 

Low Boil

These simmering reels aren’t going to spin themselves (well actually they can do that, but shush), so let’s start the betting with a nice and easy 0.10 on every payline, working out at 2.50 overall. If that doesn’t sit well with you and you want a roaring inferno you can up the ante to 2 every line, equalling to 50 credits. The minus and plus widgets are going to be your new best friends, especially as there’s no maximum bet option to make getting started quicker. 

Also proving to be invaluable are those payline digits surrounding the 3x5 grid, they may look like they’re just there for decoration, but they actually turn the paylines on and off. If you’re not happy with playing with the full amount, click the figure that you’d prefer and the title will alter your bet accordingly. 

Another handy feature of the control panel is that autoplay option, for it makes the process of bagging those rewards all the more easier, and who doesn’t like a simple game? There are no settings to fiddle about with, you merely select the button and the reels will start up. If at anytime you decide you want to return to manual play, click it again and everything will stop and wait for you. 

Besides the full screen, volume and help section, there is nothing else to explore when playing Hot 7 Wheels, which makes these settings some of the most basic we’ve come across, an attribute that has won Play Pearls a lot of praise. If you’re looking for a slot machine that allows you to customise and tailor everything to fit you, it may be best to keep on looking elsewhere for your gaming needs. 

Turning up the Heat

Sometimes the gameplay of these machines can be very hit and miss - some offer quite a few surprises while others do very little, thankfully this particular title falls into the former category. 

Depending on how much you bet, your jackpot can be x75 or x1,500 of your initial bet, this is because the game adapts its payouts to suit your pay-ins, which is very clever indeed. Regardless of how you decide to approach the activity, the tiles will still look and function in the same way. 

The BAR icon is the highest ranking and paying symbol, while the two BAR icons and the yellow 7 are the lowest. However, you’ll not be looking for them when you see what the free spins ruby has to offer you - players can get up to 40 extra spins, on the house! All they have to do is find five of the tiles. If they don’t manage this but get three, the rewards drop down to 8 bonus spins. 

We’re guessing you want to know about the bonus, about that big wheel that the title is named after? Well to get it you need three or more of the bonus icons. When you make this winning combination you’ll be taken to the rainbow wheel itself; you spin it and your prize will be revealed, with some outcomes more favourable than others. You may only get 50 credits but you may get 2,000, nobody knows. 

All Aflame

Hot 7 Wheels had us burning up in no time with its considerable cash prizes and fun loving bonus features. And man that design, it puts you in the mood to fly out to Vegas right there and then. This is a keeper and should be on everyone’s top ten slot list.
