Shining Hot 5 Slots

Shining Hot 5 features so many fruits you'll wonder if you're on a diet! Or you're about to make a fruit smoothie. Either way, players who are familiar with the origins of slot games, in general, will find this format comforting. Back in the day fruits were the main focus of most slot machines. This game is a throwback to that, and while this theme isn't complex - it's still quality and contains aspects many of the classic fruit games didn't provide.

Shining Hot 5 is laid against a red background, featuring a minimalistic, subtle flame design. I personally liked the contrast between the deep red, fire-themed background and the cute, cartoonish fruit symbols. Everything you need on this slot is located towards the bottom of the screen navigation-wise. Down here you find features like autoplay and an information tab. You can also turn off or on the sound effects. This navigation bar is where you can also adjust your stake and customize pretty much anything else on the board you can. Shining Hot 5 is a highly volatile slot. You can win up to 2,500x your bet maximum. The pay range is appealing for both high rollers and regular folks alike, with the lowest pay being 0.05 pounds up to 100 pounds. The RTP for this game is 96.33%, which is a favorable RTP.

Symbols

Shining Hot 5 unapologetically showcases its fruit theme. The symbols on the board feature common produce section staples like bananas, cherries, lemons, plumbs, apples and oranges. The least valuable fruits are bananas, lemons, and cherries. However, these symbols still pay 22x for a full win of any of those fruits. The plums and oranges pay out more towards the middle in terms of value, rewarding 46x your bet for a match of five. Last,y the board wouldn't be complete without the top paying symbol! They say an apple a day keeps the doctor away, and the folks who created this slot must agree because an apple pays 240x your bet if you manage to trigger five of them on just one of your active pay lines.

Special Symbols

While fruit is the main focus, there are special symbols. These special symbols are still based on the classic slot machine design. So that being said, the diamond is the wild symbol. This diamond acts as most wilds do, and can substitute for other symbols to create winning combinations. If you trigger a full set of 5 diamonds, you'll be awarded a hefty 500x your bet. The other classic symbol is the bell, which operates as the game's scatter symbol. This bell pays from all positions, shelling out a generous multiplier worth as much as 500x your bet.

Summary

Pragmatic Play is a smart developer, with an extensively valuable collection of games, so no game coming from this company ever fails to deliver. Plays who are a fan of more minimalistic style slots will understand exactly what they are going for. They did an excellent job at updating a vintage machine and adapting it effortlessly to a modern market. I loved the gameplay, and of course - the multipliers!
