The Wombat says: It’s time for another African adventure! Get ready to hunt down the red-hot Bonus Round in the 9 Masks Of Fire Slot from Gameburger Studios: it’s got thirty Free Spins plus a 3x multiplier and seemingly endless re-triggers.
Games Global (previously Microgaming) has grown their portfolio of partner studios and is now working with over thirty, such as Infinity Dragon Studios, Foxium, Slingshot Studios and All41 Studios, who designed the epic Arena of Gold slot.
Look and Feel
The fiery reels in this game are edged with gold, while the backdrop to your gameplay is made up of hues of reds and browns – all good African bonfire stuff. Meanwhile the soundtrack to your spins, with its tribal drums, will transport you to those hot nights under the stars before you know it!
Overall the graphics in the 9 Masks of Fire slot are simple but well done – classic fruit machine style with a touch of tribal Africa thrown in for good measure. We´d go as far as to say that this game is as pretty as the Cygnus 3 slot from ELK Studios. Praise indeed!

9 Masks of Fire Slot Game Play
9 Masks of Fire slot has three rows, five reels and twenty pay lines. A standard layout found in lots of games, like the NetEnt classic Divine Fortune slot.
Your symbols on the reels include a red and gold triple lucky 7 as your highest paying icon (land five of these and you’ll be bagging a 37.5x your stake), a single lucky 7, a double 7, some dollar signs, traditional golden bells, the BAR icon and those fruit machine favourites, the juicy cherries.
Your Wild symbol in the game is the shiny blue diamond icon – and it will do the usual job of substituting for all other symbols on the reels to make more winning combos for you. Land 5x of the cheeky Wilds on a payline and you’ll scoop a chunky earner of 125 x your bet.
The gold and blue mask is the one to watch out for though – and the more of these tribal masks you land on the reels, the bigger your cash win: landing 3x, 4x, 5x, 6x, 7x, 8x or 9x of mask icons will get you 1, 5, 15, 40, 100, 500 or 2,000 times your total stake.
Hence the title “9 Masks of Fire”!
On the left of the reels you’ll see the mask-o-meter telling you how much cash you’ll be scooping on any given spin. Nice one!
The Bonus scatter symbol in this slot is the crossed spear and shield icon. Yes, there are two scatters in this game!
Free Spins and Bonus Features
Free Spins
Let’s get down to business. Hit three of the Shield Scatter icons on the middle three reels and it’s bonus time in the 9 Masks of Fire slot! Next, you’ll be taken to a new screen with a Free Spins Bonus Wheel.
This contains segments – each one showing the number of Free Spins that can be won – up to thirty. You’ll also choose your multiplier level here from 1x to 3x.
Once you’ve worked out your bonus variables, the free spins will start – and it’s worth noting that they can be re-triggered infinitely.
Which is music to this Wombat’s ears…
