Introduction

It has become very easy to find Play'n GO free slots online. The company has spent over 15 years developing its portfolio and getting its games on to casino websites in jurisdictions all over the world. Their thematic range is very broad and encompasses elaborate treatments of mythology like Play'n GO's Rise of Olympus slot as well as very traditional fruit machine variants like Inferno Star. Whatever style of game appeals to you, it’s always worth trying out free slots versions to see what’s right for you.

Inferno Star has five reels and three rows. It has five paylines which are fixed. The minimum bet size is 0.05 and the maximum is 100.00. There are seven regular symbols: the Sun, Watermelon, Cherries, Apple, Plum, Lemon and Grapes. The scatter is a large, fierce, raging sun.

Theme, Graphics and Soundtrack

As the game loads it looks very impressive. What looks like a star on the point of exploding takes the centre of the screen and then becomes part of the game logo. This is then replaced by a massive sun that fills the screen. At that point the grid appears, and although it is smart and bold there isn’t any way of dressing up fruit to look like anything but fruit. Since there is no bonus feature, the only alternative visuals come in the gamble feature, which is a simple tabletop with the gamble options laid out. The soundtrack consists of long single notes punctuated by an electronic figure with very heavy echo on each win.

Inferno Star RTP and Variance

Inferno Star Bonus Features

Raging Sun Respins

If you land a raging sun scatter symbol on reel 3, you will activate the respin mode. All sun symbols will stick in place while the rest of the reels spin again to make it possible to land more sun symbols. Any new sun symbols that land will turn into scatters during respins mode. The mode will quit immediately if no additional sun symbols land.

Gamble Feature

Whenever you achieve a win of any size, you are then presented with the option either to gamble or to collect your winnings. If you decide to collect your winnings, they will be added to your balance and play will continue as normal. If you choose to gamble your winnings, you will be taken to a new screen which gives you two gamble choices. You can bet on red or black or on one of the four suits. If you pick the right colour, you will win 2x your stake. If you pick the right suit, you will win 4x. 

Inferno Star Review: Our Verdict

The outer space setting is redundant, as it has no relevance to the game play and nothing is made of it apart from the appearance of the scatter. Strip that away and you’re left with the familiar skeleton of a fruit game. Nothing wrong with that, but don’t expect an interplanetary spectacular. The RTP is average, but the maximum payout is very low. Not recommended.
