Wheels of Flame

The Wheels of Flame slot is a simple game with 5 reels, 4 rows, and 30 paylines. This grid is set against a background of what looks like a temple wall with a stone-carved phoenix. Above the grid, you will see three different prize wheels spinning. These are the Wheels of Flame, the big bonus feature of the game.

The developer, Playtech, has kept it simple in terms of gameplay as well as presentation. The base game is straightforward, and there are no special features active in the Free Spins, although the background does change to reveal a desert. 

The betting range is wide enough to accommodate all types of players, from 0.10 to a maximum of 1000 per spin for the high rollers. All possible wins are calculated according to the line bet, which is the total bet per spin divided by 30, the number of paylines. The highest single potential win on Wheels of Flame is 500x the line bet. 

The lower-paying symbols are card ranks J to A. These all give the same payouts, and the maximum they will award is 75x the line bet for five on a payline. The mid-range symbols are. necklaces, rings, crowns, phoenix eggs, and princesses. These pay between 105x and 300x the line bet for five-of-a-kind wins. 

The two most valuable symbols in the game are the Wild and the phoenix. These both give payouts of 6x the line bet for just two, and these go up to 450x the line bet for combos of 5. The Wild symbols can also substitute for any of the regular symbols to help form line wins. 

Any of the regular symbols can appear on fire, and these flaming symbols are key to triggering the Wheels of Fire bonuses.

When 3, 4, or 5 fire symbols land adjacently on a row, one of the three prize wheels will trigger. 

Three flame symbols trigger three pins on the small wheel. The prizes on offer are 4–5 Wilds, 5–8 free spins, a fixed prize of 15x–30x, or level up to a middle wheel.

Four flame symbols trigger four spins on the medium wheel for the following prizes – 5–6 Wilds, 8–12 free spins, a fixed prize of 40x–60x, or level up to the big wheel

Five flame symbols trigger five spins on the big wheel where players can win 8–12 Wilds, 12–50 free spins, or a fixed prize of 100x–500x

The Free Spins are played at the same bet level as the spin that triggered the Wheel of Flame bonus. During these, the chances of landing flame symbols and triggering the wheels are higher.

Wheels of Flame offers pretty straightforward gameplay without any innovative features, but the Wheels of Flame bonuses keep the action fast-paced and fun. The prizes on offer aren’t huge, but with multiple spins of the wheel, they can accumulate. Just remember, this is a gambling game, so no wins are guaranteed. That is why you should always set a loss limit for each session. Playtech have developed many popular slots like Sweet Bonanza Candyland, Buffalo Blitz Live and Sahara Riches Cash Collect. You can play all of these at Gala Bingo. Good luck!
