Fire Opals Offers Canadian Players an Impressive 720 Ways to Win
Fire Opals appears at first glance to be an effort by IGT to try a variety of new features all within a single slot, and the unique and interesting combination will definitely be something new for players in Canada while working extremely well. Admittedly, the mix of features and the unusual layout will not appeal to everyone, but very few slots that veer so markedly from the accepted norm do. For players that do like something different, Fire Opals is the perfect choice.
The first feature that players may be unaccustomed to is the reel layout itself. They are arranged in something of a diamond formation, with three rows on the first and last reels, rising to five in the middle and four on each reel in between. This gives rise to the unique 720 ways to win feature that was originally innovated by IGT. In practice and in terms of betting, rather than selecting win lines, the player automatically places a fifty coin wager on the board to activate all potential pay lines. Coin values range from $0.01 to $10, meaning that it is possible for high rolling Canadian players to wager a massive $500 on each spin, and reap the rewards accordingly.
The reels themselves feature all manner of fiery symbols, including the King, Queen and Jack commonly found on popular IGT games, together with a Volcano and Fire Princess among others. On the largest middle reel, players will also find a highly lucrative stacked wild, which has the potential to turn the entire reel wild. With so many ways to win, covering the entire reel can make for some truly excellent prizes. Stacked wilds can also appear on the second and fourth reels, making for even larger combinations.
Unlike many other slots, there are a total of three different scatter symbols: the Red and Blue Opals plus the standard Scatter icon. Each one contributes to the award of the free spins game, where players begin with ten free spins and can continue to accumulate more with additional scatters during the round.
Some Canadian players will most certainly fall in love with the unique gameplay of Fire Opals, and we highly recommend trying it out to get to grips with all manner of unique functionality.
