It’s possible to get free spins, transferring wilds and expanding wilds in this high-variance game with a unique setup.

Introduction, including RTP and variance

Theoretical payout (RTP) of Fire Queen is 95.95%, which is good enough, but the main thing about this game is its high variance.

This is a slot game for those players who are looking for decent payouts combined with the creative gameplay we have come to expect (and love!) from WMS slots.

Fire Queen gameplay and paytable

Fire Queen has 11 reels and eight of them only have one symbol on them. The remaining three reels have six symbols each, for a grand total of 26 symbols on the board.

There is a total of 100 paylines possible with this setup, and basically, it’s no different than a regular slot as the maximum length of a payline is five symbols.

It’s just that the reels are distributed a bit differently, but these are the same old paylines. On the three 6-symbol reels, symbols can be stacked, and this goes for Wilds too.

Fire Queen bonus feature: three ways to trigger the free spins bonus

Fire Queen is the Wild symbol, and other than the fact that it can be stacked on three big reels, there is also a Wild symbol transfer feature. Any Wild appearing on the first four reels will get copied over to the same position on the other four-reel group.

There are multiple ways to trigger the bonus feature. One is to get four same symbols on reels 1-4 or reels 5-8. When you see the reel group consisting of four same symbols, you’ll know you triggered the bonus feature.

And, these four symbols will be held for the duration of the feature.

Another way to trigger the free spins game is a common way, Scatters appear on reels 9, 10, and 11, and you need to land all three. Five initial free spins are awarded. Any Wilds that appear on reels 9, 10, and 11 will expand during the feature.

If you combine the two ways, getting four same symbols on reels 1-4 or reels 5-8, and also get three Scatters on reels 9, 10, and 11, you have all but won this game as you be awarded 20 free spins, in addition to a 100x your total bet cash prize.

CasinoWizard’s verdict: 3 out of 5 stars

Fire Queen is a gorgeous online slot that changes the rules of what we know about slots. So a player should first get familiar with the setup and the game mechanics, and then see if this is the slot he wants to play.

With all the transferring and expanding wild and the significant number of paylines, the chance of a mega-payout is there. It does come at the expense of high variance.

Fire Queen is beautiful, different and, all in all, a very interesting slot to play.
