Know how wins form before the first spin

A 7x7 grid holds the reels of Fire Portals, a Pragmatic Play video slot with a fantasy and fire theme. Wins come from clusters: at least 5 connected symbols must touch horizontally or vertically. After each win the winning symbols cascade away and new ones fill the gaps, and this tumble repeats until no further win forms. Seven symbols carry the theme, from a sorceress to a bronze goblet.

3 to 7 scatters start 10 to 18 free spins depending on the count, and retriggers add more. During the round special reels are in play and Fire Portal Wilds stay on screen instead of resetting each spin. In the base game, Fire Portal Wilds spawn, grow and merge within a spin's tumbles. Progressive Multiplier, Sticky Wild and Walking Wild round out the features.

What do the Fire Portals paid features cost?

100 times the total bet buys the Free Spins round, which costs A$100 at the A$1 bet used on this page.

Can the round be retriggered?

Landing 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7 scatters starts the round with 10, 12, 14, 16 or 18 free spins. The round runs on special reels, and it can be retriggered. Fire Portal Wilds stay on screen for the whole round instead of resetting each spin.

When five symbols connect

7x7 grid, cluster pays with a minimum of 5 connected symbols horizontally or vertically. Tumble Feature clears winning symbols and refills the grid until no further win appears. Fire Portal Wild spawns, grows and merges within the tumbles of one spin.

Five moves ahead

Fire Portals in five steps

You will have traced one round from bet to payout and set your budget before the first spin.

  1. Bet range from A$0.20

    A$0.20 is the lowest bet and A$300 the highest, so pick a bet before the first spin. Every win is a multiple of that bet.

  2. Count touching symbols first

    5 connected symbols form a cluster that pays on the 7x7 grid, counted horizontally or vertically. Only touching matching symbols count, so a single diagonal symbol adds nothing.

  3. While the tumble runs

    2 features run inside each spin: Tumble, which cascades winning symbols away and refills the grid, and Fire Portal Wild, which spawns, grows and merges within the same spin.

  4. Count the scatters on screen

    3 scatters start 10 free spins and 7 start 18, with 12, 14 and 16 between. Retriggers can add spins during the round, and Fire Portal Wilds stay on screen throughout.

  5. Set the budget first

    A$300 is the highest bet, and the maximum win at that stake is A$3,000,000. A limit set before play keeps each session at a sum you chose, whatever the swings.

Play for real

Unknowns in a single session

Three scatters start the free spins, and no figure tells you how often that happens in your session. Each spin is random, so one session can bring several bonus rounds or none, whatever the RTP of 96.00, 96.01 or 96.06 per cent. The RTP describes a long run of spins, not your next hour.

96.00, 96.01 and 96.06 per cent are the three RTP versions of Fire Portals. The version in use is shown only in the game rules, so check them before you start. The gap between the lowest and the highest is 0.06 percentage points, which is small next to the swings of a single session.

x10,000 the bet is the most Fire Portals can pay, which is A$10,000 at A$1 and A$3,000,000 at A$300, the highest bet allowed here. The ceiling is reached very rarely, and no session shows in advance whether it will be.
