Gameplay

The slot is equipped with a MultiWay Xtra feature introduced by IGT in their slots for online casinos worldwide. The slot operates by a 720 ways-to-win principle. Each spin you may win any of 720 ways, all of them are constantly on. A 50-coin bet per spin is not too much a price. Yet true high rollers are looking for exact the opposite: an opportunity to wager as much as possible.

Fire Opals accept coin values starting from $1 and running as far as one’s balance and gambling habits allow. The minimum bet is $50 and the sky is the limit! Mind that the slot pays both ways, from left to right and from right to left, up to x2000 a coin value.

Bets are made on winning ways which means that matching symbols pay when you land 3, 4 or 5 icons of a kind on adjacent reels, counting from either direction (from reel 1 and/or 5). The math is not so simple yet you do not have to worry, the slot is a perfect calculating machine. You do your bet, symbols do their job and the slot takes care of the rest and pays if you are a lucky gambler. If you get tired from clicking Spin all the time, select from 10 to 50 spins to play in an autospin mode and Fire Opals run all of them until you stop it or a bonus feature activates or the number of selected spins run out.

Slot symbols

There are eight non-feature symbols, a wild, a scatter and a Bonus icon. Regular imagery includes including 3 playing card values from J to K (pay from x5 to x100 a coin value), a Dragonfly, a Flower, a Volcano, a Girl and a Fire Opals logo (pay from x10 to x2000 a coin value).

The attraction is that these 720 ways to win slot pays both ways. This means that it does not matter if a winning way starts from the leftmost reel or from the rightmost reel, it pays anyway. Besides, a winning way stretching across all 5 reels increases your win significantly. The more matching icons you land on each reel the better because each extra icon of a kind multiplies your way wins. Each winning way awards the highest winning combination only.

To make non-feature symbols pay higher and easier, there is a wild symbol. The wild icon is easily recognizable as it says “Wild”. It appears on central reels only (reel 2, 3 and 4) and substitutes for every non-feature symbol. Though a wild does not appear on reel 1 and 5, it works perfectly well: Wilds come in stacked positions. This is how you score on many ways at once.

A Scatter resembles a Wild in terms of design because it bears a Scatter mark. Scatters pay out x3, x20 or x100 your total bet if you land 3, 4 or 5 of them in any position on any reel. A Scatter award is paid in addition to any way win in a triggering round. If you manage to land more than 5 Scatters in a spin, only the highest Scatter win is paid. So, if you land 8 Scatters you are awarded x100 a total bet as if you have landed only 5 Scatters.

Free Spin Bonus mode

There are 2 special bonus symbols, a Red Opal and a Blue Opal. Landing 5 Red Opals on the reels grants you 100 coins and awards 10 free spins. During free spins a Red Opal turns blue and becomes a Blue Opal. A Blue Opal Bonus icon is a symbol of generosity: 5 Blue Opals also pay 100 coins and award one more set of 10 free spins in addition.

A free spin mode is retriggerable in this video slot: each time you land 5 Blue Opals you get 100 coins and 10 extra free spins, up to 260 free spins in total. During free spins a different paytable applies: it features way wins from x5 to x1000 a coin value. During free spins Wilds appear more often and become plentiful. So, this feature is a sort of Eldorado, a Bonanza of Fire Opals if you play for real money! Yet it takes some effort to make it work at full swing.

A free spin mode featuring more plentiful Wilds and retriggerable free spins with Scatter wins is played at a coin value you set in a triggering round. Consider the chances and possible payouts and bet a higher coin value in order to get it all.
