Over time, certain features in the online slots world become fashionable or eventually fall out of fashion. Free spins are a good example of this where they were the central part of so many games before falling to the side in favor of other types of novel ideas. The Incinerator slot by Yggdrasil uses a cascade respin sort of feature, which has become much more fashionable in recent years than free spins. However, it's done with a bit of a twist as players can trigger lots of extra wilds to give themselves bigger and better multi-line payouts in the process.
Basic Game Format
A pretty common format is used in this game with 20 paylines spread over five reels and three rows. In fact, this may be the single most common layout for video slots in history. All payouts are from left to right only in this game, but Yggdrasil seem to have used this format because it's proven to give a game an ultra-solid foundation, and that's exactly what they wanted for presenting the somewhat atypical gameplay that comes with this title. Coin values start off at just $0.01, so you can play for as little as $20 per spin because the 20 paylines are locked in. You can play for spins worth as much as $200 per spin with coin sizes going up to $10 as well.
Wild Patterns and Respins
This game uses a sort of cascade respin feature that's gained a lot of traction. Whenever you hit a winning spin and your prizes are paid out, all of the symbols from your winning combination are incinerated (thus the title of the game), and they fall down to allow new symbols to fall in place. This gives you another chance to hit wins. If you get three wins in a row on a single spin thanks to this feature, then things get a lot more complicated and a lot more valuable thanks to the Wild Pattern feature.
You'll see a 5x3 grid on the left-hand side of the reels when you play, and before each spin, a certain number of the squares on that grid will be colored in. That's the Wild Pattern that you'll be able to access by getting three consecutive wins. When you get those three wins, the symbols in the place of those filled-in squares on the grid mentioned above will be replaced by wild symbols, and the cascade feature continues. This gives you lots of extra chances for even more payouts, and it makes it a bit easier for the cascade feature to continue going along since your wilds that aren't used in a winning combination stay on the reels and fall down like normal symbols do.
Two Tiers of Wild Patterns
There are a total of 16 patterns available in this game, but they come in two tiers. You'll pull a Wild Pattern from the first tier of pattern layouts after getting three consecutive wins on the respins. However, once you get three more (and every three after that), you'll pull from the second tier, which gives more value. The first-tier Wild Patterns offer four or five wilds only. However, you'll get at least six and as many as nine wilds on the second-tier patterns.
This means if you're able to get six wins in this feature, which happened to us in the time that we spent testing this game, then you'll get a ton of wilds added to the reels. What's more is that the second-tier Wild Patterns are set up to guarantee that you get at least one winning combination that's five of a kind, so that's a ton of value right off the bat.
Payout Structure
There are only seven symbols in this game, and one of them is a wild. That leaves six regular symbols to use to make payouts, and that makes winning combinations much more common than games that have 12 or more regular paying symbols. The blue wheel shape with yellow arrows pays 200x for five of a kind, and you'll earn 100x for five of the red square. The yellow/orange diamond shape picks up 80x when you nail five of them, and a 70x win is available for five of the green triangle. The purple pentagon awards 60x for five in a row, and you can also get 50x for five of the glowing red tube.
Overview
Gameplay is something that often takes a backseat to great graphics, sound and a unique theme in many cases. However, in the case of Yggdrasil's Incinerator online slot, there's no problem whatsoever with the gameplay. In fact, the gameplay is driven primarily from the Wild Patterns feature and the respins you get, and it's a great way to get a lot of action from a game. Overall, we think fans of video slots in general will love this game, even though it doesn't have a huge top jackpot, because it has such a great hit-rate and chances for winning several times on the same spin.
