Purist players looking for an authentically styled fruit machine will enjoy EGT’s latest offering. The free 10 Burning Heart slot not only looks great, it has a fertile medium to high variance pay table that will have those high rollers with bulging pockets purging to get its 5 reels spinning. It is mobile optimized so you can keep the heart burning with you wherever you go.
It features 10 fixed paylines which helps take the headache out of placing a bet. Clicking on the gears will take players into the settings. By default, the lowest bet is in place when first loaded, but this can easily be changed from 10 coins in preset amounts to 20, 50, 100 or 200 coins on the maximum bet. The credit level can be adjusted when playing for real money, but for the demo it is set to 1.
The 5 by 3 grid layout is extremely well designed to keep the heat on. It’s not overflowing with ambient sounds, and that’s a good thing because it adds to the classic slot spirit. Not only does it feature super 3D symbols that look good on any screen, but the animations for them are on point too. The Heart symbol is wild and can stack and boost payline wins as it lights up everything it touches. For the straight payline wins, the fruits will also light up to highlight the winning combination. Aside from the wild symbol, there are 2 other special symbols to look out for and these are the scatters; star and dollar sign. Although there are no free spins on offer from these, they still have a use to bring some nice payouts multiplied by the total bet.
Spinning on the reel are mouth-watering fruit combinations of melons, plums, oranges and lemons, and cherries. The trusty bell and 7 symbols help complete the group in true fruit machine style. Prizes vary according to bet size, with 7s being the highest paying of the regular symbols and 100000 for 5s to complete a payline on maximum bets.
With no free spins, there are still plenty of opportunities to strike it big with the help of a jackpot card bonus feature. Each progressive pot, which grows based on the percentage of the player’s bets, is aligned to a card suit and the chance to grab one is determined by a randomly triggered feature. This can be done after any single game has been played, and there is no need to worry if you are playing in Auto Play, as this is also automatically stopped for the feature. Players must match 3 suit symbols from a deck of 12 cards to win the corresponding prize pot.
There is also a gamble feature for 10 Burning Heart, should players feel brave enough to risk their winnings to possibly double them. It’s a typical card gambling game where you pick black or red to be the next card shown. The maximum amounts that can be won are shown in the paytable, but with no way to safely stash half of your winnings, there is a lot to be won, but also a lot to be lost. Simply click the 2x button to play or the tray icon to collect.
EGT likes to heat things up on their fruit machines. In the free 40 Burning Hot slot, they take 40 fixed paylines to play 5 x 4 reels of fruity goodness. While some might say it’s almost the same game, they wouldn’t be far wrong, but it still retains enough differences to broaden the appeal to a diverse audience. The betting range is from 40 to 800 coins per spin. It features jackpot cards and the Gamble game and also plays with medium variance. Its style is given a different look.
It retains the same great quality seen in EGT games, but for this outing the graphics are more cartoon style than the real appeal of Burning Heart. Red gives way to a lot of green, with an Irish feel to the wild being a four leaf clover, along with a distinct Irish jig feel to some of the winning sounds. Fire is still an integral part of the aesthetic with winning combos coming to life with flames.
All in all, 10 Burning Heart is a fruit machine themed slot with reasonable bets to achieve a reasonable return to player of 95%. The payout table is generous and high rollers can do well to add to their balances. With a low limit of 10 coins, it still has good prizes on offer to make this game appealing to all levels of players. The autoplay is only on or off, so new online slots players will need to keep a close eye on their balance to make sure it doesn’t run away with them when playing with high stakes.
There’s no turbo button, but clicking the start button again will bring the reels to rest more quickly. The jackpot cards are a nice bonus feature, but we played for some time with no sign of it triggering, so don’t rely on these wins when planning your sessions.
