Fire in the Hole Slot Machine

Fire in the Hole is one of many NoLimit City slots that stands out for its innovative extra features (like Hold&Win), while presenting players with a familiar setting: a mine where great riches are to be found. Players are assisted by a dwarf miner who can't wait to blow up dynamite, so the gameplay is anything but boring! The game grid consists of 6 reels and 3 rows (expandable) and the paylines range from a minimum of 486 to a maximum of 46,656, making it a Megaways. The RTP is 96.06% and volatility is high.

Fire in the Hole slot: features

The game's background shows the inside of a mine, where the player and the friendly dwarf miner protagonist must continue digging, exploring the tunnel in a mine cart. Barrels and dynamite are ready to be used, but to extract gold nuggets, you'll need to rely on the good old pickaxe and plenty of elbow grease. Lanterns, ropes, sturdy boots, and an engaging soundtrack effectively accompany the gameplay, while an expandable grid can reveal great surprises when getting the right winning combinations!

The symbols offer a prize when aligning with a minimum of 3 and maximum of 6 icons on adjacent reels, allowing wins up to 60,000 times the initial bet! The latter starts from €0.20 and can be increased up to €50 per spin. The paytable shows:

• Lantern, which pays up to 7.5x;
• Miner's bag that pays up to 3.75x;
• Boots, which pay up to 2.5x;
• Rope, which pays up to 2x;
• Pickaxe, which pays up to 1.75x;
• K which pays up to 1.5x;
• Q which pays up to 1.25x;
• J which pays up to 1.1x;
• 10 which pays up to 1.05x;
• 9 which pays up to 1x.

Extra features of Fire in the Hole

Collapsing Mine: spins start with 3 standard rows, but each winning combination makes the involved symbols vanish and replaces them with others falling from above, enlarging the game grid with 1 additional line, up to a maximum of 6.

Lucky Wagon Spins: getting 3 to 5 bonus symbols on the grid activates the Hold&Win game, during which 2 to 4 extra rows will be active. The symbols that fall in the 3 free spins are mine carts and carry a money value, whose sum constitutes the final prize of the bonus game. The 3 respins reset every time a symbol stops on the grid. The carts can also bring Multipliers or increase the Dynamite counter. Additional symbols that fall during the feature represent:

• Bag - collects the value of symbols positioned on the same row;
• Chest - collects all symbols on the reel and removes them, except for the dwarf;
• Dwarf - remains in position and collects all prizes on the reel with each spin;
• Dynamite - activates a chest that collects prizes on row and column with each spin.

xBomb Wild Multiplier: the Wild symbol explodes on the grid every time a winning combination is formed, even if it's not part of it. For each explosion, it's not removed from the grid but increases its multiplier value by +1. The feature continues until no further wins are formed.

Wild Mining: the feature activates when 3 to 5 identical symbols align on the grid but don't result in a prize. The symbols are replaced by 1, 2, or 3 Wilds that offer a second chance to get a winning combination.

Pros and cons of the Fire in the Hole slot

Fire in the Hole is a slot suitable for those who love dynamic gameplay: the xBomb and Wild Mining features ensure a triumph of explosions and many possibilities to obtain consecutive symbol cascades. The Hold&Win bonus offers the chance to obtain immediate cash prizes, enriched by interesting multipliers. The absence of a Jackpot is noticeable, generally associated with Hold&Win, but the extra features effectively increase winning chances.
