Fans of Smokin’ Hot Stuff slot game series can enjoy this theme and its “devil baby” character with Smokin’ Hot Stuff Link, which was released by Everi last year.
Everi launched this title during the second quarter of 2024. Smokin’ Hot Stuff Link is available in two versions, Fired Up Fortunes and Fired Up Fat Stacks.
This video slot title has five reels and allows play on 50 lines. The Everi website lists the slot game’s volatility as four out of five.
This slot game is available in casinos throughout the country, including Indiana’s Four Winds South Bend.
While visiting the destination, I had the chance to play this game. I played both versions and particularly enjoyed the Fired Up Fat Stacks game, which displays a pile of stacked bills and diamonds that grow as coins are added.
Graphics on both versions were well done. The game is like other Link games because of its hold and spin bonus feature. Landing six or more coins in a spin will trigger this bonus.
The hold and spin bonus allows you three spins and the chance to collect additional coins. Collecting 15 coins during the bonus round will award a player the grand jackpot.
Players can win other progressive jackpot amounts during the bonus for extra winnings. Landing more coins on this bonus resets the spin count back to three spins.
However, the bonus differs from other games with hold and spin features. Smokin’ Hot Link’s devil character sometimes adds two and three-times multipliers to coin amounts on the board.
This is especially great when the coins have large amounts on them already. Another fun feature involves the devil character adding additional spins during the game. When I played, this happened a couple of times when I got down to one remaining spin. The devil would get angry, blow on the spin total, and it would add another spin.
I was able to land multiple bonuses on this game, even while playing on a minimum 50-credit bet. During my 15-minute session, I got the bonus feature more than four times and was able to see both the hold and spin bonus and the scatter bonus feature, which awards players six free games when triggered.
The scatter bonus feature was entertaining to watch as well. On this bonus, players can earn larger line hits because multiple symbols are removed from the reels during this bonus.
Smokin’ Hot Stuff Link comes in several share pool denominations, including 1₵, 2₵, 5₵, 10₵, $1 and $2. Bet options range from a 50-credit minimum to a maximum of 500 credits.
No matter how high you’re willing to bet, this slot game adds charm, fun and quality entertainment to any casino floor.
