Infernus Review

Who knows how or why we got to this low point but for some reason, we are here in the fiery depths of Beelzebub's cauldron and we have to make the most of it. By that I mean smash our way to a 15,000x win and play for free as often as possible thanks to a duo of sizzling free spins features.

Gameplay & Features

First appearances can be deceptive and you might imagine that this 5x5 set of reels is going to perform some scatter pays or cluster pays duties. Not so, unfortunately. What you have are 19 win ways and across these you can pick up payouts from five royal symbols and four picture symbols. 

From the low payers, the ace will fetch you the best results with 2.5x as a reward for a five-of-a-kind. The picture symbols get you up to 20x for a set of five phoenixes or wild symbols. 

The wild symbols are represented by the hellhound himself and these will land in blocks. They substitute for all other regular payers from the standard set of symbols and arrive as 2x2, 3x3, 4x4 or 5x5 blocks. 

The action doesn't stop there with these symbols as you'll notice that there are a number of heads on each symbol. Among these heads include multipliers and depending on the size of the block, you'll get more or less heads. The smallest blocks have two heads and the largest blocks have five heads with each one producing a multiplier value between 2x and 100x. 

Bonus Games 

There are two free spins bonuses but don't expect anything overly distinctive to separate them – just a couple of minor adjustments.

The first comes by way of landing three bonus symbols and for this, you get 10 free spins and a chance to see more of those wild blocks landing. The upgraded version requires four bonus symbols and again you get 10 free spins with a better chance of seeing the blocks of wild heads. 

The wild blocks become sticky as they land which means they'll stick around and help you for the rest of your spins. You might also see larger wild blocks replacing smaller ones if that situation occurs. 

To make each spin three times more likely to trigger a bonus feature, you can double your bet amount and hope for the best – remember that this won't increase paytable rewards. If you'd like to make each spin a little more exciting with a guaranteed wild block, then 75x will be the initial outlay. 

Outside the UK, players can enter the standard free spins bonus for 100x and the advanced version for 200x.

Infernus - Inferno’s Gate

Inferno’s Gate

Land 3 bonus scatter symbols during the base game and you'll be off to Inferno's gate where you'll play 10 free spins. Whilst playing this feature around, you have an increased chance of landing those wild blocks and multiplying heads along with them.

Infernus - Cerberus’ Rage

Cerberus’ Rage

This bonus game also offers 10 free spins but you're going to need four bonus scatter symbols to land simultaneously during the base game. The added advantage of making it this far is that wild blocks become sticky and you also see larger wild blocks replacing smaller ones.

Win Potential

The base game allowed me to watch my balance ebb and flow quite nervously for a while but the multiplier blocks did me a huge favour from time to time. If you're lucky enough to see some of the larger multiplier heads, you might have your wins improved by up to 100x and that's always a good thing.

The standard bonus game didn't grab me any huge prizes and I didn't feel like the wild blocks turned up more frequently either. That said, I did land four bonus scatter symbols and watch Cerberus' Rage unfold and with the sticky wild blocks, the results were pretty massive! The high volatility lived up to its name and I walked off with nearly 100x from the feature round.

Design

Have you ever imagined yourself standing at the gates of hell, looking into the abyss with a 5x5 set of reels in front of you? Probably not, but it wouldn't be the worst greeting you've ever had. This grid is lined perfectly in the centre of some fireproof concrete columns and all around us lies fire and destruction – as you would hope! 

As Wins are formed, a little fiery streak makes its way across the win line and a few sparks rise up from the depths. It looks fantastic on smaller screens as well because there's not too much here to distract you in the background. The simple yet eerie soundtrack aligns perfectly with the theme.

Our Verdict

You couldn't ask for much more from a game called Infernus - you've got plenty of risk with high volatility and lots of reward with up to 15,000x available. The wild blocks with multiplier heads are a nice way of presenting a fairly regular set of features and the free spins bonuses are nothing out of the ordinary. You could say it's a pretty safe release but maybe that's what you're looking for right now.
