Burning Classics Slot Review

Considering that it is 2020, you would think that a classic fruit-themed slot will give a twist to the norm, but alas, my hopes were dashed. Fruits, Triple 7s and Wilds occupy the reels, but at least they can land fully stacked, and there is a Free Spins Feature. If it weren't for that, I would have willingly climbed into the smoothie maker and blitzed myself into oblivion.

Gameplay

Burning Classics is a 5x3 reel, 20 payline video slot powered by Booming Gamessoftware. Symbols include Cherries, Plums, Lemons, Watermelons, Blue Triple 7s, Green Triple 7s, and Red Triple 7s. All symbols can appear stacked, except for the Free Spins Scatter. Special Symbols include the 'W' Wild and the Free Spins Scatter that triggers the Free Spins Feature. There is also a Gamble Feature. More detail will be given in the Features section.

As far as controls go, on the right of the reels is adjustable Lines window, below the reels from left to right, is the adjustable Bet window, the Win window, and the Balance Window. On the right of the reels is the Menu button that expands to History of Play, Full-screen Mode, Settings, and Autoplay Settings. Below is the Information icon that opens to the Paytable and Game Rules. Next is the Coins icon that opens to the Bet Settings. Lastly, you will find the Spin button that also expands to the Turbo Mode, Autoplay, Music, and Sound buttons. After a win lands, a Gamble button appears on the left of the reels to play the Gamble Feature.

Features

The features in Burning Classics include the 'W' Wild, the Free Spins Scatter that triggers the Free Spins Feature, and the Gamble Feature.

The 'W' Wild substitutes for all symbols, except the Free Spins Scatter, to form potential winning combinations. It is possible to land multiple fully stacked 'W' Wilds on the reels.

Land 3 or more Free Spins Scatters to trigger the Free Spins Feature, awarding 10 Free Spins. The feature can be retriggered.

You have the option of playing the pick a card Risk/Gamble Feature. After each win, you will notice that when you land a winning combination, a Gamble button appears on the left of the reels that you can click to gamble your win. Choose a colour, either Red Triple 7s or Green Triple 7s, and if the spinning card stops on the colour you chose, you will double your win. You can continue to gamble for 10 rounds. Choose the wrong colour, and you lose all.

Unique Features

Unfortunately, there are no unique features to this slot.

Performance

Burning Classics burns like a classic case of urinary tract infection with the gameplay being nothing special, which is very disappointing for a 2020 released slot. However, there is still a chance to land a 2000x your stake win here. The design, animation, and graphics are standard. The volatility is medium and the RTP is at 96.1%.

Max Win

The max coin win is 2000x your stake.

Conclusion

If you are going to produce a fruit-themed slot, at least put a spin on the old classic. I am so tired of seeing the same gameplay done to death by so many providers. It is time to up the fruit game and give us something to get excited about. If you have played fruit slots before and know what Wild and standard Free Spins Features are, you will know exactly what you are in for. Burning Classics has gone up in flames for me.
