Tempered Steel Slot Information

The first impression of the grid is that it’s dark, way darker than most slots. It brings a mystical and exciting feeling. To the left hangs a chain, and to the right of the reels is another chain with a big hook, dangling above a burning thermally insulated oven known as a kiln. The game’s logo is set on the top of the reel in two colors. The top of the letters in gray, looking like stiff steel, while the yellow bottom parts look like melted steel. The reels are also framed by shiny steel, and the game’s buttons are all found at the bottom. To make a win, you’ll need to land 3, 4, or 5 of the same symbols on any of the 20 paylines going left to right. A winning line needs to start on the first reel to the left. The game is available on desktops, notepads, and mobile phones.

The lower-paying symbols in the steaming blacksmith are the play card suits clubs, spades, hearts, and diamonds. Don’t expect them to look as usual, though; they’re in semi-melted steel. Five different weapons are what we find when we’re moving up to the higher-paying symbols. The weapons are a crossbow, two daggers, a hammer, a sword, and a two-headed axe. The wild symbol is a crazy-looking blacksmith holding a hammer, and the scatter symbol is melted steel pouring down on a sign saying BONUS.

What features are available in the slot Tempered Steel?

The features are Wild Symbol, Scatter Symbol, Lock and Spin, Forge Your Weapon, Bonus Frenzy, Free Spins, and Bonus Buy.

Wild Symbol

The bald and bearded blacksmith stares you in the eyes, holding a hammer high in his right hand. This symbol substitutes all paying symbols and can come in stacks up to three positions high in the main game and five positions high in the free spins.

Scatter Symbol

You need to land at least 3 Scatter Symbols to activate the free spins. The height of the wild stacks in the free spins will be 3, 4, or 5 positions, depending on if you landed 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols to activate the feature.

Lock and Spin

This is one of three sweet features triggered randomly in the base game. The reels start an extended spin with stacked wilds of three positions. If you land a stacked wild covering all three positions on a reel, it will be locked in position while the other reels spin again. If another stack lands, it will also be locked while the rest of the reels respin again. This goes on until no more stacked wilds hit the reels.

Forge Your Weapon

This feature is also activated randomly, letting the player choose one of three hidden weapon symbols on the screen. A bunch of extra symbols of the selected weapon will be added to the reels, raising the possibility to make a win with that specific symbol in the next spin.

Bonus Frenzy

This is the third feature that is triggered randomly in the base game. It adds extra Bonus Scatter Symbols to the reels, increasing the possibility to activate the free spins on your next spin.

Free Spins

The Free Spins have stacked wilds climbing on the reels. Bulletproof Games claims that the feature is unlimited, but since there’s a max win of 10000X the bet, even this sweet feature has to come to an end sooner or later. Under each reel is a burning kiln which randomly triggers the climbing stacked wild symbol at any time. The stacked wilds vary in size from 3 to 5 positions high depending on if you landed 3, 4, or 5 Bonus Scatter Symbols when the feature was activated.

Each reel can only award one climbing stacked wild, and the symbol moves up one position on its reel on every spin until it disappears. The fire of a kiln is turned out whenever the stacked wild on that reel has climbed out of sight. The feature is over when all the fires have been turned out – unless there’s a reactivation. The reactivation can happen randomly, lighting up all the kilns once again. The retriggering will also expand the 3- and 4-position stacked wilds with an extra position. Stacked wilds of 5 positions will not get an extra position in case of reactivation.

Bonus Buy

For 100X the bet, you can buy yourself a spin that guarantees to land you at least 3 Bonus Scatter Symbols, activating the free spins. The lucky player can land up to 5 symbols on the spin, resulting in playing the free spins with stacked wilds of 5 positions.  

Tempered Steel Slot Conclusion

It is a dirty visit to the blacksmith that Bulletproof Games invites us to. The dark layout and the sharp graphics get us hooked, and we like it down here, far from daylight. In this hot and steamy steel-producing factory are three excellent features helping the main game to become more attractive. The Lock and Spin Feature with the stacked symbols is probably our favorite, filling up wilds on several reels for the lucky player. Forge Your Weapon is another piece of good entertainment where the player gets involved. If you manage to pick the most valuable weapon, the mighty two-headed axe, you might be up for a nice win. The Bonus Frenzy feels like the feature that is least likely to help you out, but you’ve got a golden ticket to the free spins if it does. In other words, well worth aiming for.

The RTP of 96% is pretty average, nothing to brag about but neither nothing to complain about. With all the action going on in the blacksmith, there’s no surprise that this game has high volatility, possibly granting the lucky winner a big win. The Min.bet of 0.20 and the max bet of 100 makes it attractive for pretty much all players, and the max win of 10000X the bet should attract pretty much everyone as well. A hit frequency of 24.4% means that about one spin in four is a win, and the free spins frequency of once in 223 is pretty average.

Tempered Steel from Bulletproof Games is a slot game with an unlimited free spins feature, producing climbing stacked wild symbols.
