Guardians of Fire and Ice - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Guardians of Fire and Ice is set on 5 reels and 25 paylines. You will see nine symbols that form the base of the game, which include superheroes, special rings and flaming fists. Watch out for the shiny box symbol, which acts as the wild in this game, substituting in for all of the other symbols to help build winning combos. There’s also a scatter symbol that can help you to win free spins.

Overall Theme

Taking a closer look at the overall aesthetic and theme of the game, we can draw comparisons to Ice and Fire online slot. The superhero theme is something we see a lot in online slots, and the grid follows the same comic book style. Overall, it’s highly illustrative with good animations that make the interface fun to engage with. We long for a little more glamour in the looks department; there have been many titles that look almost identical to this one.

RTP & Volatility

The slot has an RTP of 94.82%, which is much lower than what we would expect to see from an online slot. This means that playing this game for real money may not pay out in as many prizes as one with a higher RTP would. At the time of writing, Roxor have not released a volatility level for this game.

Burning Bonus Features

There are various bonus features that could make up for the poor RTP of Guardians of Fire and Ice. On the 25 paylines, you'll find the cascading reels feature. Any winning combination that is made will explode away the symbols, allowing new icons to descend from the top of the screen to replace them. This means you could potentially have multiple wins using only one spin.

On the screen, you will notice a scatter counter. Once you have landed four of the scatter symbols, you will be awarded five free spins. You could receive seven free spins for getting five scatter symbols and up to 13 free spins for landing seven or more.

If you manage to land the wild symbol in the middle reel, it automatically becomes a Fire Wild. This means that it sticks in position and will increase by one wild in power for every winning combination it is involved in. When there are no more winning combos to be had, the fire superhero will zap another wild onto the reels for every win that happened during the cascade.

During the free spins, you will see the Ice Wild appear on the reels. Every free spin will land an Ice Wild in the centre of the reels, and it will stick there for two wins until it melts away. If you manage to land any other wilds during the freeze or thaw rounds, the wild will become sticky for two more spins.

Our Verdict

Guardians of Fire and Ice has an original theme with crisp graphics and good design. While it seems similar to quite a lot of other slots available today, it is quite playable. It can be frustrating to have to wait for wilds to land, and the quick bonus rounds are a letdown to the overall gameplay. It has very limited potential to become a fan favourite, and you’ll probably be turned cold by this slot quickly if you are an experienced gamer.
