Description
Travel to the Pacific without leaving home with Volcano Riches Slot, a video slot from Quickspin offering five reels, four rows plus a large number of Paylines – 40 to be precise. There’s more than a nod to the Polynesian culture here, and you’ll be travelling to the region’s well-known Ring of Fire. Be prepared for some explosive action as you pit your wits against those of the fire goddess!
The dramatic background is of a volcano, complete with cracked earth and glowing lava. Rest assured, however, that here volcanoes can also erupt with riches. Keep an eye out for some big wins from the fiery Wilds!
Throughout, Volcano Riches Slot lives up to its creator’s typically sky-high visual standards, with the strong, innovative and appealing design that is Quickspin’s calling card.
How to play
Spin prices kick off from a low 20p each and you can play on any device you like, mobile or otherwise.
Pele, the goddess of volcanoes and fire and creator of the islands of Hawaii, plus four statues in various colours and a couple of people (a man and a woman) form this game’s symbols. Dug-out canoes and grass skirts complete the line-up. All icons display stacked, so it’s likely they’ll form multiple winning combos.
The goddess is the highest-paying symbol, the totems the lower-value icons.
Volcano Riches Slot special features
Special symbols
There are two Wilds here – a regular and a volcano one, while a golden sun serves as the Scatter.
The regular Wild is just a word icon which replaces all symbols bar the Scatter and volcano Wild.
The volcano Wild, for its part, as represented by the fire goddess, can only show up on Reel 3 during the base game, and it substitutes for all icons save the Scatter. During free spins, it appears on Reels 2 and 4.
Free spins bonus
Play this when you land a hat-trick of three sun symbols wherever you like on the reels, and enjoy 10 free whirls. Payouts are both ways during this perk (i.e. from left to right and vice versa), while volcano Wilds can appear on Reels 2 and 4.
Further free spins cannot be retriggered during the round, but up to two volcano Wilds may land during a free whirl, activating the feature described below.
The Volcano Wild feature
Activate this when the volcano Wild shows up on the central reel. It will erupt to generate between two and five additional Wilds in neighbouring positions. These themselves can then also erupt so that even more of them appear on the reels.
Return to Player (RTP)
RTP or Return to Player in this medium-to-high variance game is a decent 96.43%, with the relatively high volatility balanced out by the bonus features. So Volcano Riches isn’t without a certain number of highs and lows.
Progressive jackpot
The top prize here is for wins of more than 1,250x stake on every spin, although there isn’t a progressive jackpot up for grabs.
Verdict
This fiery little game certainly doesn’t hold back when it comes to exciting action and thrills. You can also expect some detailed animation and character design among the exceptional visuals, while the theme is highly original.
But only you can know if it lights your fire. Give Volcano Riches Slot a go – and let us know your thoughts.
