Get into the mood for Halloween with the Red Hot Devil slot

No doubt if you answer your door to Trick or Treaters this coming Halloween, then you are going to have your fair share of devils dipping their fingers into your bowl of sweet treats.

Well this is one devil that many hot-blooded males would love to knock on their door as the Red Hot Devil from the Microgaming slot of the same name is a rather buxom babe.

The game isn't overtly biased in this direction. It is sultry more than sexual to be brutally honest and you'd have to push things hard to be offended by any element of the game. What you have here is a 25 pay lines lot that has the standard 5x3 reels on a hot, sexy red hot devil theme.

So is this one devil worth opening your door to and enjoying a few spins with? We decided to take a closer look and find out.

Presentation

The presentation of the Red Hot Devil slot is very simple. It is rather sexier and sultrier than a true horror pic with the bust Red Hot Devil the centre of attention. The reels are decorated with flames with embers drifting up from them and the symbols on them all reflect the theme.

A great touch is the heavy rock soundtrack which really does give the game a lift and has you tapping your foot along as you play. Overall, although the presentation is simplistic, it is also very effective and the way the different elements work together makes it a very appealing slot visually and audially too.

What is on the reels?

There are a total of ten symbols on the reels and the good news is that we have no playing card low symbols. The symbols on the reels include a Cherry, Dice, Scorpion, Snake and flaming trident as the lower value symbols. These offer wins from a fifth of your bet up to 10x your total bet. Each of the symbols is also embellished with fire to fit in with the 'flaming' theme of the slot.

The higher value symbols include roses, playing cards, a Lucky 7, a pair of lips and the Lucky Red Hot Devil herself and these offer wins from 0.5x up to 80x your total bet depending on the symbol and number of symbols landed. Each symbol is also predominantly red to fit in with the theme of the game.

Wild features

The Red Hot Devil logo is the Wild symbol in the game and this can appear across all the middle three reels, but not on the first and fifth reels. It operates solely as a substitute for other symbols, apart from the Scatter.

Free Spins features

To trigger the Free Spins bonus game, as well as the two other bonus features, you need to land three or more of the Blazing Heart Scatter symbols across the reels in any position. Two or more of the Scatters triggers a cash prize ranging from 1x and 2x your bet up to 20x and 200x your bet for four or five Scatters across the reels.

You then have a choice of three different bonus games to play, one of which is a Free Spins bonus game with a multiplier, another is another Free Spins game with up to three reels turning Red Hot Wild and lastly, there is a Wheel spinning game called the Wheel of Fire. Players can freely select which of the three bonus games to play.

In the Free Spins with the Red Hot Multiplier, you get 10 Free Spins and each time you land a Scatter symbol on the first or fifth reel of the slot during the Free Spins bonus round, you will increase the value of your multiplier. How much it increases by depends on how many Scatters you landed to trigger the bonus. If you landed three, it increases by one each time, from1x. up to a maximum of 6x. However, if you landed four or five Scatters then you can increase up to 10x the stake, with the increase in multiplier being greater for five Scatters than four.

Furthermore, if you land a Scatter on the first and fifth reel on the same spin, you will re-trigger 10 Free Spins, but you won't double the value of the multiplier. It is possible to win up to a maximum of 50 Free Spins in this bonus.

The Red Hot Wild Reels bonus sees you land 10 Free Spins and on each spin either the second, third or fourth reel will turn Wild at random. Furthermore, if you land a Scatter on the first or fifth reels during your Free Spin, this will turn these reels Wild too. Land the Scatter on the first and fifth reels on the same spin, and it will turn both reels wild and also trigger 10 additional Free Spins.

The Wheel of Fire bonus sees you able to win up to 160x your total bet for three or four Scatters triggering and 240x your total bet for five Scatters triggering. All you do in this bonus is pick one of the symbols on the reels to reveal a heart. If you do, you win a cash prize and can pick again. One of the hearts is a bonus multiplier which multiplies all wins by the stated multiplier amount (either 2x or 3x depending on the number of Scatters triggering the bonus).

Watch out for the Jester though as if you pick him, he will end the bonus feature.

Best feature of the Red Hot Devil slot

There's no doubt that the Red Hot Devil slot is all about the fantastic choice of bonus games you can play once you land your trio of Scatters across the reels. The fact you have a free choice of game to play and such a wide selection of enjoyable games to play through, gives the slot longevity and also means that players that like different bonuses are well catered for. It is fun to try each of the bonuses though but I do feel the Free Spins bonus options are more fun than the Wheel of Fire bonus, though I feel the payouts are lower, but more consistent in the Wheel of Fire game, though that may have just been from the sessions I played, rather than a general way the slot plays.

Conclusion

The Red Hot Devil slot is a fantastic and enjoyable game to play. It is a simple slot in many ways, with a rocking soundtrack and some fantastic symbols on the reels. The fact that there are so many bonus games to play makes this a must play slot and the size of the potential jackpot win is also tempting, although it is very difficult to land a really huge win on the slot. Even so, it is still a game well worth taking a closer look at.

You can play Red Hot Devil slot at any of the Mega Moolah casinos.
