Burning Sun™ Review
As soon as you launch the Burning Sun™ game, you'll see that this is one hot fireball of a slot! With a 4x4 grid giving you 16 reels in action at once and all of the special features typical of a Wazdan title, Burning Sun™ is certainly hot to trot!
Plus, with 4 different jackpots and a top prize of 5,000x your stake, Burning Sun™ offers a fantastic slot session with decent chances to take home a massive cash prize. And with Wazdan's trademark ‘Sticky to Infinity™’ and ‘Hold the Jackpot™’ features, Burning Sun™ has a lot to offer players looking for a wild ride of a time.
Design
When we opened this game we had a feeling of deja vu. And in all honesty, Burning Sun™ could be a carbon copy of the Magic Pearls™ game in Wazdan's Hot Slot series. The grid structure, special features and fiery backdrop are all reminiscent of Magic Pearls™, and while we can’t really tell them apart in many ways, both of these games are incredibly fun to play.
The smoking hot theme comes to life with this scorching black, red and gold colour scheme. And one thing we love about Burning Sun™ is the retro 80’s soundtrack, which reminds us of the opening track to Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure (if you know, you know).
True to Wazdan’s signature style, this game will not win any points for originality, but it is fun, fast-paced, dynamic and a visual treat.
Gameplay
Burning Sun™ is an absolute joy to play. At first glance, this is a fruit machine game that has been given a bit of a fiery makeover (a la Magic Pearls™). But unlike most fruit machines out there, this game offers some seriously varied gameplay and an infinite amount more special features than a traditional fruity.
With a 4x4 grid format, you have 16 reels in play at all times. And with various bonus symbols staying ‘sticky’ on the reels, your chance to get into the Hold the Jackpot™ game quickly is very high.
Where this game absolutely shines is in the bonus round. You have tons of special symbols, including Cash, Collector, Mystery and Jackpot, which will all help you reach for one of those 4 massive jackpot wins. Plus, there are free spins and respins up for grabs too, meaning you can stay in this potentially very lucrative bonus game for a long time indeed.
As you play the Burning Sun™ game, you should start to accrue wins quite easily, due to the sheer volume of special features at play. And if you are willing to take a punt on a bigger bet, you'll see those jackpot amounts climb up considerably as well.
Win Potential
Given the number of special features and the immense Hold the Jackpot™ game, Burning Sun™ is not to be sniffed at. And truth be told, this game has some serious potential to be very generous.
Obviously, you'll be very much focused on the 4 different jackpots, but remember that the top prize is a massive 5,000x. And with the Mystery, Jackpot, Cash and Collector symbols all playing a part, landing one of those enormous prizes could well be within your reach.
The RTP of Burning Sun™ is pretty much standard for a slot game at 96.19%, but the ability to choose your volatility level offers players a far more varied experience. If you like your wins regularly, then choose the lowest setting which is one chilli pepper.
This should bring in plenty of winning combos quickly, but they will be at the lower end of the scale. On the flip side, if you're willing to put down a decent bet amount and choose the highest volatility of three chilli peppers, then you might be waiting around for a considerable amount of time, but the win at the end could be absolutely epic!
Our Verdict
Yet again, we find ourselves raving about the latest Wazdan title. Burning Sun™ might be a bit too similar to Hot Slot: Magic Pearls™ for some players’ liking, but we cannot get enough of Wazdan's current fire-fruity trend.
The grid-style play, Hold the Jackpot™ bonus round and the game’s generous amount of special symbols all come together to create a burning hot slot, and we think Burning Sun™ will become a fan favourite from the moment it’s released!
