This one smoked out the competition. Choosing your ideal slot can be an overwhelming task when visiting the casino, especially in Las Vegas. Players have their choice from thousands of games on the Strip.
But one five-reel video slot game continues to rise through the ranks as a fan favorite – Smokin’ Hot Stuff Wicked Wheel by Everi. After playing this game — for several hours no less — the appeal for Wicked Wheel fans is obvious. This slot game offers fun graphics, exciting multipliers and up to 243 ways to win.
Also Wicked Wheel does not have to break your bank either. With options of one and five-cent denominations, bets can range from 40 credits to the max bet of 320. This makes Wicked Wheel a good choice for players regardless of the size of their bank roll.
One highlight from this game is the bonus features. Wicked Wheel offers a couple of fun bonus games with the chance to win big no matter how large you bet. A bonus game is triggered by getting the Wicked Wheel symbol to hit on the last three reels. The graphics on this feature add to the thrill of triggering this bonus. After getting the symbol on reels three and four, the fifth reel lights up prior to stopping.
Once this bonus is triggered, the top screen is activated, and the player touches the screen in front of them to spin the wheel above. Depending on your bet, several progressives, along with other dollar amounts, will appear as wedges on the wheel. After the spin stops on a wedge, the Wicked Wheel devil character could blow on or turn the wheel to alter your win, possibly in your favor.
The second bonus game is randomly triggered when a player completes a base game spin. The player is presented with 21 coins to choose from and will win the first match of three of the same progressive. This bonus game also has a pitchfork symbol among the coins. Choosing one of these will take away the lowest progressive jackpot, increasing the chance of winning a larger prize.
Wicked Wheel has some great features outside of the bonus games as well. Players can win some substantial amounts by getting the Hot Stuff multiplier symbol, which can increase your line win from two to four times.
A word of warning, though, this game cleverly keeps players coming back for more, thanks to its innovative graphics, fun sound effects and catchy tunes. Don’t be surprised if you walk away from this one singing Donna Summer’s lyrics, “Lookin’ for some hot stuff baby this evening…”
Everi offers Wicked Wheel in several variations, including Smokin’ Hot Stuff Wicked Wheel: Fire & Ice, Wicked Wheel Panda and Wicked Wheel Fire Phoenix.
