Firestorm 7 Slot Machine

The Firestorm 7 slot machine is a really interesting one, in that it combines new and old very well. Thee 'old' aspect is that it is a 3 reel game, with 7s and Bars, but there is 'new' too, with bonus features. In the bonus you get to collect red tanks to build up free spins - it's a nice twist to a classic game, with a new twist.

Released by Rival, Firestorm 7 is one of those slots that are all about being perceived as “edgy” but it's still difficult to put your finger on what the creator's point is and what is the message that the developer is attempting to convey. One thing is certain – there's a lot of flames, with explosive tanks lying around, which cannot be safe.

Setting this blunt violation of all known safety regulations aside, a few words on the slot visual profile are in order. In short, Rival has completely banished the theme from this game and decided to just pile up some traditional symbols and surround them with fire, without any visible or logical connection. Together with the conventional Bars and 7s, the slot also introduces Lighters and Petrol Cans as the Scatter icons.

Firestorm 7 is played on 3 reels and has only one payline. The number of wagered coins and their value are set up manually or by selecting the Max Bet tab – up to 3 coins can be wagered on a single spin, with a value range of $0.01 to $10. Auto Play can also be turned on, but only if you are playing for real cash; the slot is available in demo play as well, but this version does not allow the Auto mode feature to be activated.

Advanced game settings are located under Main Menu Settings button, where players can adjust the slot speed, select the fullscreen viewing mode and turn off the audio and background sound effects. The extended gameplay can produce a 94% return to the player percentage, which is quite low but not out of the ordinary for Rival releases.

Firestorm 7 bonus rounds and special features

Scatter Petrol Can is one of the higher value icons and the payout it can generate depends on the betting level and the number of Scatters in the combination. With the bet value and coin size increased to the very maximum, the combo that consists out of 3 Cans can pay 2,400 coins, whereas the Lighter icons with the same bet value can produce 7,500 coins.

When the Explosive Tank icons land on the reels, Free Spins will be triggered. Only two of the icons will start a session of 7 bonus rounds, while the combination of three Tanks will set 21 additional spins into motion, tripling any winnings that the players manage to hit during the bonus feature.

Free Spins are definitely a nice surprise, especially since a lot of similar slots with a single line structure often have no bonus features to offer and this is one aspect of Firestorm 7 that definitely adds a bit of a competitive edge to the game.

Real Money Play

Same cannot be said for the return to the player percentage – with only 94%, the slot losses most of the above mentioned competitive edge gained by introducing the Free Spins, which pretty much sets the slots back to square one.

It is quite difficult to form an opinion when this game is concerned and it remains somewhat of an enigma what was the developer's vision or what sort of primary goal they had in mind when the slot was designed. The theoretical payout rate is way too low to disregard the inferior visual profile of the slot, which is another mystery, considering the fact that this game was released in 2015. Although ranking the game can be a question of taste, there are some universal criteria and, unfortunately, Firestorm 7 fails to satisfy most of the standards that make the game appealing to the players.
