Hot Spin Deluxeby iSoftBet

In the world of slots, there is one thing that everyone likes. As welcome today as they were years ago and will be for years to come – the extra spin!

You probably already know, but an extra spin is a feature in which the slot plays out a number of spins while not taking away credit from the balance. That of course, is why they are so loved.

iSoftBet has made an offering, Hot Spin Deluxe, which is a long-overdue tribute to this favorite and time-honored special feature.

And…

…they added a certain twist.

Theme

Graphically the game is very loud and very bright. Neon lights everywhere and lots of special effects and sound effects too.

It puts you in the atmosphere of a very busy casino floor, which isn’t a bad atmosphere at all.

Dominating the screen is the special prize wheel just to the left of the grid. That’s the twist we’ve been talking about…

…as the wheel contains various special features that will become active when the extra spins mode is triggered, much the same as the original Hot Spin version of this refurbished follow up.

When it comes to the symbols…

…they are all homage to the classic slot fruit machines. In the low paying roles, it’s fruits – cherries, lemons, plums, and watermelon. Occupying the fancier and higher-paying role it’s the old standbys like bells, stars, lucky 7s, and diamonds.

It’s a very old-school vibe the game goes for and we’re here for it. Especially with the funky music that ramps up the excitement and the expectation of those extra spins finally hitting.

Betting Options and Functions

It’s a pretty standard set up on display with a 5x3 grid and twenty paylines. The bet level can be 20 cents at the lowest setting and 20 euros at the highest.

Other standard features are here too with autoplay letting punters automate up to 1000 spins. Players can also set the loss limit and the auto spins can also be stopped if the winnings exceed a certain number.

Special Features

And this is where things actually get HOT!

That’s because of the Hot Spin Wheel. Three bonus symbols landing activates the wheel and then it starts spinning.

Punters can be awarded up to 15 extra spins with a special effect determined by the wheel.

Mystery Symbols replace 6, 8, or 12 positions on the reels with a symbol of the same kind leading to a potential winning outcome.

There is a random wild feature as well and it’s just as the name implies – random positions on the grid can turn wild.

The Mega Reel is where things get interesting because reels 1 to 3 or 2-4 will turn into one giant position containing a single MEGA symbol.

Another of the possible features…

…is the In Sync Reels where 2 or 3 reels will be synchronized and contain the same symbols. Punters might also get the wheel to land on the Super version in which 3 to 5 reels will be in sync.

There are two more special effects in play:

The Wild Reels will add stacked wilds on up to 3 reels. That number increases to up to 5 in the super version.

Ultra Reel is the final of the features and it turns the whole reel set into ultra symbols. Ultra symbols are giant 5x3 symbols that occupy the entire grid.

There is more…

…because this is one feature-filled offering. Randomly, a Hot Spin can be triggered in the base game which activates the wheel and awards one of the aforementioned special features.

Our Take

It’s not the first time this developer has gone back to the fruit machine theme, as seen in Fruit Party.

But Hot Spin Deluxe is on a whole new level. The special features just don’t stop and neither does the excitement. If you like games that are flashy, loud, and filled with a bunch of gameplay gimmicks – this is the one for you.
