The Wombat says: Brightly coloured fruit machine madness! Yes, that’s what’s on offer from this slot brought to us by Eyecon, one of our most popular game developers. This game is very bright, it’s definitely brighter than Dazzle Me slot from NetEnt!
And with their trademark wild multipliers, there could well be some exciting gameplay on offer.
Heartburst Slot – Look and Feel
If you’re thinking that there might be echoes of slot classic Starburst here, then you’d be right. For an Eyecon game, the graphics are surprisingly good. There are translucent reels and an old school fruit machine feel, but with a hi-tech twist. Heartburst slot has a lot in common with NetEnt’s most famous slot Starburst. It has that rich feeling that reminds us of Triple Edge Studios’ Wicked Tales Dark Red slot with lots of sumptuous colours kicking about.
As for the soundtrack? Well, it’s as catchy as a bout of measles!
Turn it up, nod your head and tap your paws!
Game Play
Heartburst slot has 5 reels, 3 rows and a whopping 100 paylines. That’s 10 times more than the Net Ent equivalent which is the Double Stacks slot, although that game has some extra features hidden in its fruit basket.
Bets start at 0.01 coin and go up to 50.00 coins per spin in your local currency. Your symbols on the reels include your old fruit machine favourites, the bars, oranges, watermelons, grapes, lemons and red cherries.
The bars are the highest-value symbols on the reels. Landing 5x of these lucky icons will pay out a jackpot of 3000 coins, which would make this Wombat very happy indeed.
Meanwhile, the red love heart icons will act as Wilds in the slot and will do the usual job of substituting for all other symbols on the reels (except for the Scatter). They will land on reels 1, 3 and 5 only and will also expand to cover an entire reel.
But best of all, the heart wilds will pay out a x3 multiplier on all wins that they are a part of.
The Scatter in Heartburst slot is the Lucky 7 icon – keep your eyes peeled for it as it’s the key to the Free Spins.
Free Spins and Bonus Features
Land 3x, 4x or 5x of the Lucky 7s and you’ll receive 15, 20 or 25 Heartburst Free Spins respectively. You can also retrigger this round up to 15 times in a row which could mean there’s a possible 375 spins up for grabs. Now that really is the business!
Gamble Bonus
Fancy a further flutter Wombat Fans? Then try your hand at the gamble bonus – it will pay double or nothing on your last win. Pick correctly from 1 of the 2 options that you are presented with and you’ll double your winnings. But if you get it wrong, you’ll lose everything. FYI: You can play 5 rounds of the Gamble Bonus which means loads of chances for wins, but also lots of chancesfor you to lose the lot – so choose this option carefully.
Conclusion
A nice addition to the Eyecon stable of games, Heartburst slot looks the part and has great graphics(unlike some of Eyecon’s previous offerings). It also has the usual decent Eyecon paytable. But as always it’s the wild multipliers that get this Wombat’s paws tingling. All in all Heartburst is a cool little slot.
Highly recommended!
