Sizzling Scorpions

Review

The Sizzling Scorpions online slot is a highly inventive construction of modern slots play based on the traditional 3 reel 1 payline model. The illustrations are playful and the artwork for the main logo is extremely well rendered showing there was a lot of thought placed in its construction. The choice of icons are a varied mix of old and new with lucky 7s and BARs representing the traditional methods, compared to sun and scorpion symbols reflecting the title. Keep in mind there is a buzzard logo that will trigger the bonus game if you reveal it upon the payline after any spin. Don't forget the Sizzling Scorpion, complete with cheeky grin, is the one symbol that will drop you the top award. Play with max bet to align you with the biggest pay-grid and match three of this scorpion across the payline to drop the top award. If you play with one coin or two the top awards you can get for the same combination are 1,000 or 2,000 respectively, so in this case it definitely pays to play big.

At first glance the Sizzling Scorpions slots machine can seem too mediocre for some tastes, especially with its traditional basis. However if you delve a little deeper the bonus features, top awards and numerous ways to drop them will soon be apparent and make gamers of any quality or experience tempted to try their hand at this addition to the slots world.

Bonus Round

The Sizzling Scorpions bonus feature is activated by spinning the buzzard icon onto the payline after a max-bet spin. You are then taken to a screen to choose one of three scorpions who will then race the others. Once you've chosen your scorpion, they will line up ready for the buzzard to start the race whilst other dessert animals will be looking on for their favourites. Choose well and the winner receives a jackpot of 100 coins, second place gets 50 coins whereas third still receives a respectable 30 coins. This bonus feature is one of the most entertaining you will find from such a modest-looking slot.
