40 Super Heated Sevens Slot Review

Introduction

When it comes to things in our universe that are extremely hot, we immediately think of the sun. After all, it is a glowing ball of fire, but did you know that humanity invented something even hotter? Like a lot hotter?

During a 2012 CERN (European Council for Nuclear Research) experiment at the Large Hadron Collider, a temperature of 9,9 trillion degrees Fahrenheit was recorded. Now to put that in context, this is 366,000 times hotter than the sun's center!

Speaking of things that are hot, let’s check out GameArt’s latest offering: 40 Super Heated Sevens slot.

Gameplay

One of the first things you’ll probably notice about this game is that lurking among the fruit are some symbols you just wouldn’t expect to see. There’s a star, which is our Scatter, a bell, and even a four-leaf clover. OK, that’s weird.

The 6x4-reel grid is encircled by a rather gaudy gold border. Things look a lot better on a mobile phone, I have to say.

The grid is admittedly a bit small when held in portrait mode, but you can still make out what’s going on. In landscape mode, 40 Super Heated Sevens slot looks amazeballs!

The controls really pop on a phone but their functionality changes from the desktop version. On your handheld device, the Turbo setting (next to the SPIN button) is replaced by the Coin Value setting.

You’ll now find the Fast Spin and Turbo toggles under the Autoplay setting or hamburger menu. Also in the hamburger menu – in either the desktop or mobile view – is the toggle for the Gamble feature, which I’ll chat about under Features.

Moving on to the tale of the tape, this 40-payline game boasts an RTP of 96.21%. Then we have the following which will blow your socks off – a max win of €360,000 coupled with a very low volatility. When was the last time you saw a combo like that?

What’s also very generous is the betting spread. It starts at €0.40 and you can go all the way up to €120.

Features

This game has only 1 feature and it’s the Gamble one. In other words, after every win, you’ll be offered a chance to double your winnings by betting on whether a face-down card will reveal itself to be red or black.

Before I move on, just note that the Gamble icon appears to the side of the SPIN button and you’ll need to keep a sharp eye out for it, coz it’s so small that it’s easy to miss.

The fun starts with a drumroll and you’ll see a red or black circle on either side of a card. Pick either one and that’s all it takes. Above the card, you’ll see the history of the previous picks so you can better judge what might be coming next.

You can gamble your winnings up to 5 times but if you lose, you lose all the winnings you accumulated during the round.

There are 2 special symbols to look out for – the 7 Wild and the Star Scatter.

The Wild appears on reels 2 - 5 only and substitutes for all symbols except the Scatter. The Scatter pays from 3x to 6x, depending on where they end up on the reels.

Performance

I put this game through the wringer on all my devices and it passed with flying colors.

Maximum Win

A 3,000x multiplier is what you’ll need to land to bring in the massive €360,000 max win. I still can’t get over how huge the top prize is off a very low volatility game!

Conclusion

This was a weird one for me. From the jumble of symbols that really shouldn’t live on the same grid together, to the very low volatility and humongous max win, to the lack of features, I just found it to be super strange.

Oh, and despite the volatility being what it is, I found that landing a win – any win – was seriously elusive.

There were many times when I came up empty-handed after a ton of spins so do bear this in mind. We’re dealing with a variable here, so it can play out in ways you might not expect.

So, what’s my final verdict? That’s a good question! It’s a game well suited to newbies, classic fruit slot aficionados, or players who want to chase down the big bucks but who aren’t into complicated features. Just try to manage your expectations, is all I’m saying.
