Blazing Piranhas Slot Information

The piranha is one of the most infamous fish species, known for killing everything in its way. Although the rumor is exaggerated, you don’t want to end up in waters full of these South American freshwater fishes. The piranha’s name comes from the Tupi language, made from two words meaning “fish” and “tooth.”

This game is set on a river in a calm setting with a green hill in the upper left corner and a small house to the right. The fish is lurking around in the waters, and the music has sounds of small waves of water. The 5 reels have a wooden frame, and a meter above it collects coins that can trigger the Jackpot Wheel. You make wins by landing 3 or more symbols of the same kind on a payline going left to right, starting on the first reel to the left. Blazing Piranhas is available on mobile phones and other devices.

When you’re diving into the dangerous waters, you will find people and bad-ass-looking fish among the symbols. The lower-paying ones are four piranhas in blue, green, orange, and purple. They will give you between 1X and 1.4X the bet for a 5-of-a-kind win. The higher-paying symbols are two women and two men with frames in the same colors as the piranhas. They award between 7X and 25X the bet for a win containing 5 symbols. There are two kinds of Wild Symbols, substituting all mentioned symbols but not the Lock-N-Win Coin or the Scatter Symbol.

Blazing Piranhas Slot Features

What features are available in the slot Blazing Piranhas?

The features are Wild Symbols, Lock-N-Win Coin, Lock-N-Win Respins Game, Lock-N-Win Jackpot Game, Lock-N-Win Jackpot Wheel, Free Spins, and Bonus Buy.

Wild Symbols

There are two kinds of Wild Symbols. The regular one is a death skull with bones, and the enhanced Piranha Wild has four piranhas on it. Both symbols substitute all regular paying symbols but not the Lock-N-Win Coin or the Scatter Symbol. The Piranha Wild also changes higher-paying symbols to the left into Wilds.

When a Piranha Wild moves to the left, it leaves a regular Wild in its place. It is possible to land several Piranha Wilds on the same spin.

Lock-N-Win Coin

The Lock-N-Win Coin is a gold coin with a piranha, worth between 1X and 12X the bet. It can appear anywhere on the reels, and landing 6 or more triggers the Lock-N-Win Respins Game. You can’t make regular wins with the coins.

Every Coin that appears on the reels is also collected on the meter above the reels. Filling the meter will trigger the Lock-N-Win Jackpot Wheel. The collected Coins are connected to your bet, and the meter will reset if you change it.

Lock-N-Win Respins Game

This feature is triggered by landing 6 or more Lock-N-Win Coins anywhere on the grid. The Coins are locked to their positions while the rest of the grid is cleared. You start with 3 spins and can land blanks, Coins, or the special symbols Multiplier, Key, or Star on each position. Whenever a symbol lands, it’s locked to its position for the rest of the feature, and your spins are reset to 3.

There are 3 locked extra rows above the reels. Landing a Key will open one row, two Keys the second row, and three Keys the third row. Symbols can appear on the extra rows whenever they’re unlocked.

The Multiplier Symbol multiplies all visible symbols by up to 5X and awards a prize up to 5X the bet. Landing a Star Symbol triggers the Lock-N-Win Jackpot Game, which will start when this feature is finished.

The Lock-N-Win Respins Game ends when the player runs out of spins or when all positions are filled with symbols. If you unlock all extra rows and fill the entire grid with symbols, you’re awarded the Mega Jackpot of 5,000X the bet.

Lock-N-Win Jackpot Game

The Lock-N-Win Jackpot Game guarantees to award one of the Jackpots Micro, Mini, Minor, Major, or Mega. They’re worth 15X, 25X, 100X, 500X, and 5,000X the bet. Each Jackpot is represented on a row on 3 reels where you can land either Stars or blanks. You will win the Jackpot on the first row that is filled with 3 Stars.

Lock-N-Win Jackpot Wheel

The Lock-N-Win Jackpot Wheel is triggered by collecting Coins on the meter above the reels in the base game. The Jackpot Wheel consists of 3 wheels in different sizes. The smallest wheel has 4 segments of the Micro Jackpot and 4 segments that will activate the middle wheel, which has two segments of the Mini Jackpot, two segments of the Minor Jackpot, and 4 segments opening the last wheel.

If you advance to the last wheel, you will score the Major Jackpot of 500X the bet or the Mega Jackpot of 5,000X the bet.

Free Spins

The Scatter Symbol is a lifebuoy, appearing on all reels. Landing at least 3 Scatters anywhere on the reels triggers the Free Spins. Depending on the number of Scatters that trigger the feature, you have these choices:

3 Scatter Symbols = 12 free spins with 3 Wilds, 10 free spins with 4 Wilds, 7 free spins with 5 Wilds, or 5 free spins with 6 Wilds.

4 Scatter Symbols = 24 free spins with 3 Wilds, 20 free spins with 4 Wilds, 14 free spins with 5 Wilds, or 10 free spins with 6 Wilds.

5 Scatter Symbols = 36 free spins with 3 Wilds, 30 free spins with 4 Wilds, 21 free spins with 5 Wilds, or 15 free spins with 6 Wilds.

The Wilds will randomly appear on the reels. It is possible to retrigger the feature by landing Scatter Symbols. The Free Spins end when the player runs out of spins.

Bonus Buy

All four bonus games are for sale. Paying 30.93X the bet will get you the Lock-N-Win Respins Game, and 31.7X the bet awards the Jackpot Game with a guaranteed Jackpot Win. To play the Jackpot Wheel, you’ll have to pay 31.25X the bet, and the Free Spins sets you back 52.05X the bet. 

Blazing Piranhas Slot Conclusion

Blazing Piranhas is, just like Granny VS Zombies, a game where a lot can happen. We should probably say where a lot can go wrong since every bonus game starts with a pretty bloody scene. The Lock-N-Win Coins can trigger the respins feature where up to 5,000X the bet is on stake. Like in most respin games, the only downside is that the Coins are useless if you land less than 6 since you can’t make regular wins with them. However, every Coin is collected on a meter which will trigger the Jackpot Wheel when you have collected enough. In that sense, every Coin counts.

The Jackpot Wheel guarantees you to win one of the 5 Jackpots, worth between 15X and 5,000X the bet. The respins feature can also take you to the Jackpot Game, which also guarantees a win by landing 3 Stars next to one of the Jackpots. Apart from the 3 Jackpot Games, you can also trigger the Free Spins, where you can choose high volatility by picking few spins and more Wilds or lower volatility by choosing more spins and fewer Wild Symbols.

The RTP of 96.01% is about average in the slot world, and a max win of 5,000X the bet isn’t bad for a highly volatile slot. For a more cartoonish-looking underwater slot, check out Feeding Fury, where sharks and piranhas kill everything in their way.

Blazing Piranhas from Pear Fiction Studios has 4 different bonus games and a Mega Jackpot paying 5,000X the bet.
