Fire and Roses Joker Slot Review

Fire and Roses Joker RTP, Details & Wager Limits

When you launch the Fire and Roses Joker slot, you’ll find an unconventional layout of 5 reels with row heights of 3-4-5-4-3, and 720 ways to win. Creating a winning combination is easy. Simply land 3 or more symbols on adjacent reels. Combinations can start from reel 1, paying left to right, or from reel 5, paying from right to left.

You can play for as little as 20p up to £50 per spin. This bet range is a little limited for high rollers. If you prefer bigger bets, check out other Microgaming slots.

You can adjust your stake using the + and – buttons below the reels, or by clicking the total bet amount. Outside of the UK, the Fire and Roses Joker slot also offers an Autoplay feature. You can use this to play between 10 and 100 spins without clicking. Turbo mode is also available for faster gameplay.

With a return to player rate of 96.01, this isn’t one of the highest RTP slots around. However, it does offer a high volatility and max wins of 5,000 x your stake. Wins of this size are achieved by landing the Ultra jackpot, but there are plenty of other chances to win big too.

Theme – step right up and behold Jolene the Joker

Have you ever been to the circus? Acrobats, clowns, fire breathers, and jokers of course. And have you ever played cards or a classic fruit machine? Jokers again! This is the whole theme of the Fire and Roses Joker slot. It’s not the most original pairing but the slot looks great. You’ll find Jolene the Joker standing to the left of the reels, which hang against a harlequin background.

On the reels, lower-paying symbols are represented by card suits. Traditional slot symbols make up the upper half of the paytable, including cards, dice, and cherries. The 7 is the highest paying symbol, rewarding you with 8 x your stake for a 5-of-a-kind combination.

Fire and Roses Joker comes complete with a wild symbol, which substitutes for all others and scatter symbols which spell out J-O-K-E-R across the reels. Land 5 scatter symbols to trigger the Free Spins feature.

Fire and Roses Joker Bonus Features

The Fire and Roses Joker slot boasts 3 main bonus features. This includes a jackpot wheel where you can win 1 of 5 jackpot prizes and a multiplier collection feature which can be used in the Free Spins feature.

Jackpot Feature

Fire and Roses Joker offers 5 jackpot prizes. In the base game, you can see the amounts above the reels. The Jackpot Trigger symbol is a golden rose, which can appear anywhere on the reels.

Landing 1 or more rose symbols can trigger the Jackpot Wheel feature, but there’s no guarantee that will happen. That said, each time a rose lands on a reels, the jackpot over that reel increases by 0.5 x the bet. The jackpot continues increasing until it is claimed.

If you do trigger the Jackpot Wheel feature, you must spin the wheel to claim 1 of 5 jackpot prizes. Check out how much each jackpot is worth below.

Free Spins Multiplier Feature

In the upper right corner of the game, you’ll see the Free Spins Multiplier. This starts at 1 x and increases by 0.5 every time you land 4 scatters on the reels in the base game.

The multiplier can reach up to a maximum of 10 x in the base game, and up to 15 x when triggering the Free Spins feature. The multiplier is then applied to all wins in the Free Spins round.

Free Spins Feature

You’ll notice pretty quickly that the scatter symbols spell out the word JOKER. Land 5 scatters across all 5 reels (spelling out the word) to trigger the Free Spins feature.

Upon triggering the round, you receive 1 x your stake and 6 free spins. For every scatter symbol, you’ll also receive either 1 additional Free Spin, or increase the Free Spins multiplier by 1 x. This leaves you with a maximum multiplier of 15 x, or a maximum of 11 free spins to begin with.

During the round, the Free Spins multiplier is applied to all wins, though not the jackpots. You can also retrigger the feature by landing 5 more scatters across the reels.

Fire and Roses Joker Summary – all is not as it seems

Let’s start with the positives. The Fire and Roses Joker slot boasts a good-looking design with a fun, albeit slightly annoying, soundtrack. There’s a generous amount of free spins up for grabs, especially if you can retrigger the feature, and there’s 5 jackpots up for grabs of course.

That said, in true circus form, all is not as it first appears. The problem is that the bonus features are very difficult to trigger. You need 4 scatters to increase the Free Spins multiplier and 5 to trigger the Free Spins round. This seems a little excessive – we’d take it down to 3 scatters for Free Spins.

Moreover, the jackpots only increase by 0.5 x bet per each jackpot rose symbol. This means that if you play at £1 per spin, you only increase the jackpot amount by 50p each time a rose lands – and roses don’t even land that often. It seems that reaching the maximum jackpots amounts is nearly impossible. Finally, there’s no guarantee of winning a spin of the jackpot wheel.

We know this is a volatile title, but with an RTP of only 96.01% and max wins of only 5,000 x the bet, it seems like a lot of effort for nothing that spectacular. Essentially, if this circus came to town we’d give it a miss.
