9 Blazing Diamonds WowPot Gameplay

9 Blazing Diamonds WowPot takes its inspiration from traditional fruit machines. Cherries, bells, dollar signs, BARs and flaming 7s fill the reels alongside the special Blazing Diamond and Blazing Wheel symbols.

Despite the simple appearance, there is more happening behind the reels than you would find in a traditional fruit slot. The main attractions are instant scatter prizes, Free Spins with multipliers and the chance to trigger one of the four WowPot Progressive Jackpots.

Symbols and Payouts

The regular symbols include cherries, bells, dollar signs, BARs and single, double and triple 7s. The Blazing Diamond and Blazing Wheel symbols activate the game’s main bonus features.

Blazing Diamonds act as scatter symbols. Landing three or more anywhere on the reels awards an instant prize based on the number of Diamonds in view.

These instant prizes can become considerably larger during Free Spins because the active multiplier is applied to Blazing Diamond wins.

Blazing Wheel Bonus

Landing Blazing Wheel symbols on reels 1, 3 and 5 triggers the Blazing Wheel Bonus. The wheel can award Free Spins with a multiplier or provide access to one of the game’s progressive jackpots.

Free Spins awards can range from 10 to 30 spins, while multipliers of 2x, 3x or 4x may be applied to wins throughout the feature.

Free Spins

The Free Spins feature is particularly useful because its multiplier remains active for the entire bonus round. Blazing Diamond scatter prizes can also be triggered during Free Spins, with the applicable multiplier increasing their value.

A nine-Diamond 2,500x scatter prize combined with a 4x multiplier can therefore produce the game’s maximum non-progressive win of 10,000x the stake.

9 Blazing Diamonds WowPot Jackpot

9 Blazing Diamonds is connected to the WowPot progressive jackpot network, with four jackpot tiers available:

• Mini
• Minor
• Major
• WowPot

The WowPot is the top progressive prize and can grow independently of the game’s standard 10,000x maximum win. Jackpot values change as players contribute to the progressive prize pools.

9 Blazing Diamonds WowPot Pros and Cons

Our Verdict on 9 Blazing Diamonds WowPot

9 Blazing Diamonds WowPot takes a traditional fruit-machine design and gives it a more modern bonus structure. The instant Blazing Diamond prizes and multiplier Free Spins provide most of the action, while the WowPot network adds the possibility of a progressive jackpot win.

The biggest drawback is the 93.30% RTP, which is lower than we would ideally like to see. However, players specifically looking for a simple fruit-machine-style game with progressive jackpots may appreciate the straightforward 25-payline format and uncomplicated bonus features.
