Play’n GO’s Fire Joker slot is part classic slot, part modern video slot. It may well be a homage to mid-20th century 3-reel fruit slots, but thanks to its fiery features, it’s a superb 21st century gaming experience.

What we think about Fire Joker
“For a 3-reeler, Fire Joker is a stunner. It’s probably the most fun you can have with 5 paylines.”
Is Fire Joker right for you?
Fire Joker is rare among modern online slots, because it has just 3 reels, 3 rows and 5 win lines. It’s a homage to the original land-based slot machines with a crank handle, but at the same time, it’s a premium video slot with excellent production values.
Although the artwork is nothing to write home about when compared to many of the spectacular video slots online available today, the title still manages to carry a modern feel. Subtle animations throughout, such as flames engulfing symbols and reels during both winning spins and special features, help to ensure Fire Joker slot isn’t stuck in the past.
The game revolves around the Fire Joker himself – a suitably devilish character with a penchant for pyrotechnics. He’s capable of setting the reels ablaze at any given moment and when he does, it often coincides with a nice payout.
The symbols have all been taken from the world of classic casino gambling. Think Lucky Sevens, BAR symbols, and various items of fruit. The only non-standard symbol is that of the Fire Joker himself. His devilish grin and stir-crazy stare make for a fitting Wild symbol.
He’ll substitute for any other online casino game symbol and is often integral to triggering the online slot’s bonus features. More on this later though.
Features
The Fire Joker slot game might borrow heavily from the fruit machines of old, but it still boasts two special features that really crank up the heat!
Respin of Fire
It's never fun landing two stacks of the same symbol (or Wilds) on the reels together and not making a winning combination. When that happens, the Fire Joker online slot gives players a second chance.
The reel that let the side down initially becomes engulfed in flames and spins again. Who doesn’t like an extra shot at forming a win or triggering an even bigger and better bonus round!
Wheel of Multipliers
If players manage to fill all the reels with the same symbol, they'll trigger the Wheel of Multipliers round. Now, on most slots it might seem there’s more chance of hell freezing over.
However, on the Fire Joker slot machine, with just three reels and rows, an abundance of stacked symbols, and its respin feature for getting two thirds of the way there, it happens more than you might expect.
After filling the reels with the same symbol, a Wheel of Fortune style game will appear. The wheel is loaded with multipliers between 2x and 10x. As it spins, flames spit from the edges. The multiplier the wheel lands on is applied to the player's prize for filling the board.
It’s only through this bonus stage that players can hit Fire Joker’s most sizzling prize – a sizeable 800x the total bet. Filling the screen with the title character’s symbol will award 80x the total bet. After setting yourself up for the big win, spinning for that 10x multiplier will really get you hot under the collar!
Other games like this
777 Strike
Red Tiger’s top ranked fruit slot has its own classic slot charms, but it’s the 7 Free Spins bonus that makes it worth a try. As well as extra Wilds on the reels, every free spin brings a guaranteed win, plus you get a chance to retrigger 7 more with sticky Wilds.
Hot To Burn
Just like this Fire Joker game, Hot To Burn is a scorching title borrows heavily from classic fruit machines of old whilst still retaining a modern feel. With fewer features, it’s perfect for those players who are seeking an even more stripped back but equally fiery slot experience.
My verdict
The Fire Joker online slot is a fantastic fusion of the old and the new. With its traditional stylings, coupled with modern game features and animations, Play‘n Go really cranked the heat to create an absolute firecracker of a slot.
