Juicy Hot - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

If you are a fan of classic fruities, Juicy Hot spices up the gameplay with <b>three mystery jackpots that trigger at random</b>.

Played on a standard <b>5x3 grid with 20 paylines</b>, you can almost feel the sticky pub carpet under your feet. This slot is about as basic as they come, with eight paying symbols including the purple star scatter that pays anywhere on the reels.

Except for the jackpots and a straightforward <b>double or nothing gamble feature</b>, this is as simple as they come. You can pick it up and start playing in seconds; in many ways, it is the perfect beginner’s slot.

This slot uses the developer’s standard player interface and works fine on <b>mobile and tablet</b>. You can play <a href="https://www.slotstemple.com/free-slots/fazi-interactive/">Fazi Interactive demo slots</a> without making a deposit here at Slots Temple.

Theme, graphics & soundtrack

Players never seem to tire of old-school fruities. Perhaps it is nostalgia for the days when slots were simple to spin and didn’t need a thesaurus to understand the game rules, or perhaps we are just not getting our five a day. Whatever the reason, a classic Vegas slot is in every developer’s portfolio.

Juicy Hot is no better or worse than hundreds of other games out there. It uses the basic fruit symbols - orange, lemon, cherry, watermelon, grapes and banana - plus a lucky 7 and a star and renders them in a 3D style that makes them look slightly juicy but definitely not hot.

It is a shame that the visuals don’t live up to the title, but we did like the mobile-optimised use of portrait mode to access the paytable and game info. This is accompanied by a trilling celestial arpeggio. As for the other sounds, they will take you straight back to your first casino.

RTP & volatility

Most players will enjoy the <b>medium-high variance gameplay</b>, but the payout ratio is the lowest we have seen for a while at just <b>93.7 per cent RTP</b>. This is partly compensated by the mystery jackpots, with the diamond jackpot worth up to 205,000 credits

How to play Juicy Hot

The Fazi interface isn’t the easiest to navigate, so here is a guide. Set a session budget before you play to stay in control of your bankroll.

1. There is a group of three symbols to the left of the jackpot widget:

- Yellow speaker: sound
- Blue i: paytable
- Pink X: full-screen mode

2. To the right, you will find your bet parameters, so use the + and - to adjust the lines and your bet. Your total bet is displayed under the centre of the reels

3. Once you are set up and ready to spin, hit the start button on the far right or click auto to set your autospin options

Bet sizes & paytable wins

There is a massive range of bets available in Juicy Hot, so there is something to suit every player. You can adjust the number of win lines, so you can play for just <b>0.01 over one line to a whopping 4,000 credits per spin</b>.

The biggest win available is the diamond jackpot, which pays <b>up to 205,000 credits</b>; however, you will need to play at high stakes to stand a chance of triggering it. The maximum paytable wins for five of a kind are paid in multipliers:

- 7s pay 500x
- Banana and watermelon pay 50x
- Grapes and cherries pay 20x
- Oranges and lemons pay 20x

Max-win 250x

Volatility High

Top RTP 93.70%

Bonus features

One thing that differentiates classic old-school slots from more cutting-edge modern games is the lack of bonus features, with Juicy Hot no different. There are no free spins, multipliers, wilds or breakout bonus games in this slot, but there are a couple of features to be aware of:

Scatter symbol

The purple star is a scatter symbol and can land anywhere on the reels - not just on a payline - and award a prize of 2x, 10x or 50x your total bet.

Mystery jackpots

There are three mystery jackpots available in Juicy Hot that can <b>trigger when a randomly-chosen jackpot payout amount is reached</b>:

- Platinum pays in the range 1,000-1,001
- Gold pays in the range 3,500-9,000
- Diamond pays in the range 10,000-205,000

Gamble features

You can boost your bankroll after any winning spin by pressing gamble and selecting a red or black card. This is a double or nothing game - if you pick correctly, you will double your wins; if you pick incorrectly, you will lose the lot.

Overall review: our verdict

Juicy Hot is slots gaming at its simplest, with a generic design and classic fruit symbols. The one thing that will set it apart for the risk-takers is the mystery jackpot feature, which has the potential to pay up to 205,000 credits. You will need to be playing at high stakes and have plenty of patience to land it.

We found the RTP unacceptably low and would recommend Pragmatic Play’s <a href="https://www.slotstemple.com/free-slots/extra-juicy/">Extra Juicy free slot</a> instead with its 96.52 per cent RTP and a multiplier top win of 60,000x your stake.
