Sizzling Spins

Grilling is something that people do all over the world, and it's definitely the kind of thing that will make your mouth water no matter where you're from. The Sizzling Spins slot, available from Play'n Go Casinos, offers up an opportunity to watch food get grilled while you rack up some wins with a feature-based style of gameplay that still manages a fairly low volatility. If you like a lot of action but dislike big swings that can easily get out of control, then this is a title that you should look into because it has everything to fit that particular bill.

Format and Layout

In the case of this title, the format is set up to be the foundation of the gameplay style. There are five reels with three rows of symbols, and players will find that the all-ways style is applied here. This means that you can get paid for matching symbols from left-to-right reels on the game board no matter which positions those symbols take up. That's a pretty important piece of how this game works because it drives a high hit-rate style of play. Bet sizes from $0.20 to $100 per turn are available here, and all of your wins are multiplied by how much you have wagered on the spin as a whole.

Hot Reels and Re-spin Feature

On each spin, one of the five reels is chosen at random. This becomes the "hot reel," which turns into a special feature if you get one of the foil wild symbols on it. In this case, the wild will expand to cover the entire reel, and your payouts will be given accordingly. However, that reel will then be held sticky in place, and the other reels will spin. Another hot reel will be determined, and the process repeats itself. You can end up with a few re-spins in a row with multiple wild reels. If you're able to get wilds covering the entire game board with this feature, then all of your pays on the final re-spin are doubled in size.

Wild Foil Symbols

There's a symbol that appears on all five reels of something wrapped up in foil, and it's the wild symbol since you don't necessarily know what's actually in it. This symbol will substitute for all of the others besides the chili scatters, and five of a kind is worth 10x. You can earn 2x for four and 1x for three of a kind, and like all of the other payouts in this game, it's multiplied by how much you have bet in total. They become wild on the hot reels only.

Chili Scatters and Free Spins

Three or more of the chili symbol anywhere on the game grid takes you to a free spins mode. You'll see an extra row of symbols added to the bottom of the game, and it becomes a 1,024-ways title. You'll get multipliers for each chili scatter that you collect during the feature, and you'll have chances to get extra wins since the foil symbols are always wild during this feature.

Other Wins and Prizes

The ribs symbol gets you 10x for five of a kind. You can also land 5x for five of the sausage or 3x for five of a kind of the chicken. The shrimp symbol is worth 2x for five in a row. From there, the corn and radishes earn 0.8x for five, and five of the tomatoes are worth 0.6x. At the bottom of the pay table, you'll get 0.4x for the cucumber or mushroom symbols. All of these symbols need at least three of a kind to win, and it's worth noting that the chili scatter does not give payouts and is only a bonus symbol.

In Summary

The theme of the Sizzling Spins slot is unlike anything else that we've seen, and Play'n Go definitely gets a ton of credit for getting outside of the box with this one, particularly when it comes to the meat and vegetables presented on the grill the way they are. The feature set is pretty solid as well, especially with the re-spin feature, and that's the kind of thing that we like to see in terms of mixing up the feature sets to give different types of players something they can enjoy. With a reasonable volatility and chances to run up some significant wins with the expanding sticky wild re-spin feature, we like the array of payouts this game provides as well.
