Summary
Hot Chilli is a medium to high volatility game with interesting reel setting and game mechanics. RTP is set at 96.52% and the game has decent potential but it could have been even better, however, with the number of features that this game offers, the win potential is more than expected in a game like this. Either way, we would recommend you giving it a shot, and then let us know what you think of it.
A slot from Pragmatic Play and it has a Chinese chilli theme where you get 3 reels and 3 rows and 9 fixed paylines of yummy food action on a min bet of just 0.09 per spin.
The slot doesn’t actually have a free spins feature so there is nothing to chase in that department, it is just a base game grind where you want to see as many chilli’s because they give the multipliers even as much as 555x on a payline for getting 3 chillies with 2x 5x and 2x. The chilli is the wild in this game and has the multipliers attached to it. When it came time to playing this game knowing there was no feature to chase for I had to try get some base wins and the best one happened to be 11x but there is more potential to the game but for a first session I will take that.
The graphics has so much red and gold on the screen with fire, you are looking into the pot of food being cooked and that is how the reels are looking. I like how each slot Pragmatic makes they put thought into how they will have the slot reels being presented and in this case it is a cooking pot and each time you spin you will get to reveal food items that get removed with chop sticks.
The music has some oriental kind of music which considering of the theme of the slot it is suitable enough and I have to say the music is not annoying to me at least but everyone has their own likes but for me it is fine and when it comes to the sound effects they do interrupt the flow of the music because the sounds clash and I think it is better to play with one on and the other off because of that.
I got lucky to play the slot on 96.48% RTP which happens to be the max RTP and I will say because of that is why the slot played well for during the session even if they say that RTP is calculated millions of spins but who knows.
The max win is somewhere under 1000x which is on the very low side and I always like to check the max win caps and potential of slots before I play them and this one falls into the category where it can’t excite you much because of the low potential of winning big on it.
One important missing element is a free spins feature and I think the game could have been improved had it been given a free spins feature of some kind, just add scatters and voila you got a better game when a free spins feature is included, I don’t know why some slots just don’t bother having some kind of free spins feature, or at least a respins feature. Games without these features feel like they are lacking something and I think less players stick around playing them as there is no real goal to them.
