Fire Stampede Slot

Graphics, Sound and Symbols Fire Stampede

The graphics are straightforward yet they depict a variety of eye-popping colours. The audio has that Cowboy Wild West ring to it. Now, the symbols on the reels are the low-value card suits from 9 to Ace.

When 5 pitch you’re looking at wins from 0.5x to 1x the stake for 5. The top symbols are the bison, eagle, cactus, sheriff’s badge, and gold. They pay a bit more at up to 5x for 5 matches.

The Wild symbol is the cowboy hat. It substitutes symbols adjacent to it except the Connect & Collect.

Connect & Collect Symbols

Connect & Collect symbols appear on reels 1 to 5 in any non-special position. If they appear from left to right, starting from the leftmost reel. And connect horizontally or vertically to a special position on reel 3 or 6. You’ll win the prize from that special position.

Both in the base game and free spins, special positions on reels 3 and 6 can contain various symbols:

• Respins: This symbol appears only on reel 3. When it lands, it triggers a round with 5 respins. During this round, all Connect & Collect symbols from the initial spin stay in place, while reels 1 to 5 respin. Any new Connect & Collect symbols also stick until your respins finish.
• Money Value: If a connection chain reaches this symbol, you win a prize ranging from 2x to 800x your bet.
• Add Wilds: When a connection chain reaches this symbol. It adds wild symbols to random positions on reels 2, 3, 4, or 5.
• Free Spins: Reach this symbol with a connection chain for 7, 10, 15, 20, or 25 free spins. Plus a payout of 2x your stake.
• Minor, Major, and Grand Awards: They pay 25x, 200x, or 4,000x your bet, respectively.

Free Spins

You’ll launch the free spins feature when the free spins symbol appears with the Connect & Collects symbol. The other way of triggering it is when 3, 4, or 5 scatter pitch.

They award 7, 10, or 15 free spins. The Connect & Collect feature also triggers during the free spins feature. During a chain connection, you can win additional free spins.

What We Like and Don’t Like About Fire Stampede

We like that the game randomly selects a symbol that sticks to the reels for a respin. It’s almost like chaining wins together just without the Tumble Reel feature.

The free spins feature is quite generous but triggering it is a different matter. The volatility though high is not too taxing on the bankroll.

Tips & Strategy

The best way to play Fire Stampede is to take it for a few spins in demo mode. Once you’re confident to venture onto those plains, you can play the slot for real money.

Contact the casino to inquire about the largest win a player won recently. Ask them did he play with a bonus? What was his average bet and within how many spins did he win the jackpot?

How To Play & Win Money

We played the slot for $7 bets since we believe it’s just right. Besides, it also matches the volatility and sets you up for some big wins. What made it interesting for us was the Connect & Collect feature.

We received plenty of respins, multiplier wins, unfortunately, no free spins. The point is, anything practically goes here. This time around we did not win any money.

• Fire up the slot in demo mode at Ripper Casino.
• Chat to their live support and ask them if they’ll give you a free no deposit bonus to test the game.

Verdict: Fire Stampede Slot

Fire Stampede won’t go down in the annals as one of Pragmatic Play’s best slots. It’s forgettable at worst, and we don’t think we’ll play it again. Things started off well for us but fizzled out after 50 spins.

Moreover, there are way too many skins of the game floating about. This reminds us of the Buffalo Slots series of the Hot Drop Jackpots. Personally, we think Woohoo Games did a far better job.

That’s a wrap. If you’re looking for a slot with more fire beneath the hood. We highly recommend John Hunter and the Scarab Queen. The RTP is high at 96.50%, and the jackpot is more than $1 million.
