9 Masks of Fire Symbols
As touched on, there is something distinctly African about the titular gold masks. Most of the other imagery found on the reels wouldn’t look out of place in a fruit machine or classic slot, though, so we’d hardly say that it is thematic. You’ve got bars and bells, burning sevens, diamonds, dollar signs, and all other manner of customary, classic slot symbols represented on the reels, each with varying payouts.
Diamonds appear as wilds in 9 Masks of Fire. There isn’t anything overly impressive about the wild symbols in the base game. Scatters (in the shape of masks) can unlock impressive cash prizes. They can only pop up on the three central reels, but three to nine of them can cough up wins stretching from 1x up to 2,000x a bet. That’s an interesting way to get your hands on the non-progressive jackpot prize in this game.
A second scatter appears in 9 Masks of Fire, too. The shield symbol can also only appear on the second to fourth reels, but it will trigger a free spin mode if three appear simultaneously. Once activated, you’ll get to spin a wheel of fortune.
That fortune wheel will deliver between ten and thirty free spins to players. It will also unlock multipliers that stretch from 2x up to 3x. Obviously, the best outcome is to land thirty free spins with a 3x multiplier tripling your wins. Failing that, the worst outcome still offers ten spins with a 2x multiplier, and that’s not too shabby, either. The free spin round commences after the wheel of fortune stage, and up to sixty free spins can be retriggered.
