Burning Desire is a highly popular video slot running on the Microgaming software platform. Offering 243 ways to win, the game’s most important symbols are the game logo, which is wild, and a gold coin, which is the scatter symbol. Players can try this slot here on this page for free or visit any of the featured Microgaming casinos to play the game for real money.
To explore the theme of forbidden love through the spinning of the reels, players need to adjust their bet first. Clicking on +/- under the coin icon regulates the coin size, ranging from 0.01 to 5, while “Coins” adjusts the number of coins wagered. “Spin” initiates the game and "Bet Max" automatically wagers the maximum sum, prompting the reels to start spinning. To play multiple times without interruption, players can click “Expert” and then “Auto Play”.
Pressing the “Gamble” button allows players to increase their winnings. If they guess the colour of the face down card correctly, their win is doubled, whilst guessing wrong results in the loss of the amount. Players can end the gamble feature themselves and save their winnings by clicking “Collect”.
If 3, 4 or 5 scatters appear on the reels, 15 Free Spins are triggered, wherein all wins are tripled. Free Spins can also be re-triggered.

A slot from Microgaming and based on a romance theme. It’s one of Microgaming’s 5 reel , 243 ways type of slots. And the minimum bet comes in at just a 0.25 per spin which is a suitable amount for all players. However the times I have played it has been as high as 2.50 per spin and this level has given me good returns.
Unlike some other romance type of slots from Microgaming such as Secret Admirer or Love Potion, this slot is more intense with a “Burning Desire”, it does have the flaming 7 symbol and a Diamond symbol and these are the ones you want to get especially during the free spins where the wins will be tripled. One of my earlier plays on this slot which may have been my first time playing it was where during the feature it gave me five of a kind 7’s on a juicy $2.50 bet. I still remember that moment however no screenshot of that one unfortunately but it was somewhere in 2008 I believe.
There is a wild symbol which is the Burning desire logo and it of course can be used to substitute for all other symbols except the scatters but it only appears on reels 2 and 4.
It has to be mentioned the music in this game is very suitable and comes alive during the feature where you get the Burning Desire song playing throughout, so you will want to get the feature to experience that. And to get the feature you will need to get at least 3 scatter symbols which happen to be gold coins. This will give you 15 free spins and all wins multiplied at 3x. The feature can be triggered by getting another 3 scatters.
Getting more than 3 scatters still only gives the player the same number of 15 spins which perhaps could have been adjusted to give extra spins for 4 or 5 scatters. The wilds only appear on reels 2 and 4.
