Blazing X

With a name like this, it’s hard to say what to expect. Turns out…

…this slot might have something to do with ninjas, but for sure it has something to do with dragons and Japan.

The surprises continue, as the reel setup, pay-lines and specials are uncommon to say the least.

Intrigued? Read on!

If you’re into big multipliers, then this slot is a must-try for you. Wilds and bonus spins are also included, as are combinations of these.

And we haven’t even mentioned the theme and style, which are at the top of the game. If you haven’t tried Bally Technologies slots before...

…start HERE!

Blazing X Theme

The theme combines eastern mythology with modern reels. Very bright colors are in use, as are detailed backgrounds and otherwise excellent graphics.

The symbols also mix in some traditional influences. Everything is just quite spectacular.

The audio effects deserve praise as well, with the music being exceptionally good, and somehow very futuristic. There’s just the right amount of animation in play too.

Betting Options and Functions

Let’s start with the reels!

There are 5 of these, which is a standard number. But instead of the usual 3 symbols, each has five symbol positions.

To make sure that the symbol combinations have a good chance of winning, the pay-lines have been increased to 40.

The betting is a bit strange, starting in uneven numbers, but you’ll soon get used to that.

The paytable is a bit disappointing, with the maximum price being 60x your line bet. Quite low, right? Well…

…luckily this isn’t because the RTP percentage would be low, rather because of the special features that can affect each and every spin you take.

One thing you should know is that despite the increased reel positions, this game is a perfect fit for mobile devices. Looks, sounds and feels good!

Features

Low basic wins, what could that possibly mean…

...you guessed it! Multipliers!

If the wild symbol lands on the middle reels, it will immediately expand to cover the whole reel. It will also increase the win multiplier to the next level. Land another wild on the next spin, and the multiplier goes higher. You have three chances for this until the multiplier resets.

Possible multipliers are: 1x, 2x, 3x, 5x, 10x and 25x the original payout. The maximum win, therefore, is 1500 times the line bet. Score that throughout the 40 paylines and you’ve got yourself a massive win!

Now, if you manage to land scatters, you will be rewarded with bonus spins. But, also an instant payout of twice your bet times whatever multiplier is at play. The multiplier will also carry to the extra spins and can increase during the feature.

What’s more, it can’t be reset during the feature, it can only go higher!

Our Take

Bally Technologies has done their BEST with this game, and it has resulted in something new and very surprising.

Granted, the low payouts from the basic paytable aren’t for everyone’s taste. But if you like taking risks, and enjoy special features that are worth your spins, then you couldn’t choose a better game.

Enjoy the rewards!
