Burning Cherry Slot

For me Burning Cherry is a good example for a great transition between a classic slot machine and a multi-line video slot game. It perfectly combines the simplicity, easy to use quality of a traditional fruit machine with a graphically and feature richer video slot. It’s well-designed, well-created and agreeable to the eye.

It has five winning lines with €0.10-€2 line bet possibilities. Of course, players can choose how many lines they want to bet on and if the desire is to use it like a classic machine with just one pay line, it easily fills the requirement. We can play here with fruits like lime, banana, raspberry, pear and burning cherry but somehow no the eponymous cherry is the top symbol as 5 Lucky Horseshoes reward the most with its 5000 times of line bet. On the other hand, Cherry is the only figure that pays already if there are just two of them in the starting positions of an active line. The slot’s only feature belongs to Star figure that works as a Scatter and at least 3 of them are needed to multiply the total bet (x2) but 5 Scatter give back x50.

Usually, my total stake is €1.25 for all lines and though there could be long stretches while I’m watching my balance decreasing but because of the 5 lines and a relatively higher line bets it’s enough for example 4 pears or a five of a kind line full of bananas to win €50. There’s also a good chance for multi lines winnings because the symbols very often appear in stacked form and in these cases more 3, 4 or even 5 figures wins are accumulated. Once happened, all of the 9 positions of the first 3 reels contained only raspberries and the fourth line had such symbol on the bottom spot so it meant I had 5 three-figure and 1 four-figure wins and resulted in total, €112.

Overall, it’s a very nice game and it has already given me some decent returns at the end of the sessions and every time (despite losing streaks) I had entertaining and enjoyable pastime. If someone’s looking for a good little game just to kill some time but having fun, I easily can recommend Burning Cherry for these purposes.

My opinion was always that certain so-called classic slots can compete and even be better than the worst (and maybe medium quality) video slots and „Burning Cherry“ is just this classic slot type that comes to confirm this opinion. „Burning Cherry“ is just a classic slot with 5 reels and 5 paylines having as symbols different fruits (apples, pears, bananas and of course the famous cherry, here is in flames) . Apart from the „Stars“ symbols which pay scatter starting from a number of 3, another special feature you will not met here.

The minimum bet is 10 cents/line or 50 cents/total and with this bet you will get a „standard" win, between 2 and 5 Euro when you will align 3 fruits of the same kind, 5-20 Euro for 4 fruits or 20-50 Euro for 5 fruits aligned. About once every 5 spins will have an average gain of 2-4 Euro and once about every 10 spins a win of 10-20 Euro. So the slot pays on short term about as much as the losses.

But the beauty of this slot lies in the fact that playing on long-term, that is over 200 spins) you will have at least once a winning combination of 5 symbols that, as I said above can bring you up to 50 Euro (to be completely honest there is a slight probability to lose about 20-25 Euro playing on "long run") . There is also a „Super sign“ , if I am allowed to say so, namely the „Horseshoe“ symbol that pays 10, 100 and 500 Euro for 3, 4 or 5 symbols aligned. However in my case I never even had three „Horseshoes“ lined up, while 4 or 5 scatter symbols I had the opportunity to line up more than once.

The graphics are nice, pretty close to video slots quality, the spins are unfolding fast enough onscreen, having flames instead of each of the 5 reels that spin. As I said the game have the simplicity of the classic slots but the overall look is beautiful . If you get tired of video slots, it is worth to try your luck here . From time to time you win here and on rare occasions you will also loose some money.
