Blazing Coins Deluxe: Hold & Win Slot review

Theme and Storyline

Blazing Coins Deluxe: Hold & Win is a lazy rehash of the one-armed bandit theme. Where many minimalist slots use that minimalism to create something that functions perfectly, Popiplay seems to have used the simple theme to avoid having to think too hard.

The usual suspects are all here: lucky 7s, cherries, lemons, and bar symbols.

This slot's theme is not likely to please one-armed bandit lovers, nor will it please people who like something with a bit more individuality.

Graphics, Sounds, and Animations

When tackling a simple theme like this, there is nothing to hide behind, and Blazing Coins Deluxe: Hold & Win really needs something to hide its flat, blurry, high-contrast art that feels like it has been heavily influenced by the way LLM images look.

The animations are a bit too fast to feel right, and the soundtrack is a highly dramatic track that doesn't fit the visuals.

The colors clash and the design elements don't really add up to anything, feeling both busy and empty at the same time.

Gameplay

The gameplay is at least solid. The slot uses a three-by-three grid with five win lines. A classic formula for this type of slot.

Variation is added by the central spot, which acts as the trigger for any special symbol that lands on it (more on this in the Bonus section).

The maximum win on any given spin is limited to a fairly low 2,000x the player's bet.

Wilds, Bonuses, and Free Spins

There is no Wild symbol in Blazing Coins Deluxe: Hold & Win.

The game includes a Coin symbol. Should the player land a coin symbol on the central spot, they trigger a classic Coin Bonus (called the Hold & Win bonus game in this slot).

This follows the usual formula: the player gets three spins on a counter and a new set of reels with blanks, coins, and jackpot symbols. Symbols reset the counter to three spins after they land, and those symbols remain in place until the end of the bonus.

The bonus ends when all the slots have coins on them or when the spin counter reaches zero. At that point, the player wins the value of the coins and jackpot symbols that have landed.

Filling the grid with nine coins wins the player x5 the coin value plus the Grand Jackpot.

This is a classic format, and represents an area that this slot does pretty well in.

Bet Sizes, RTP, and Variance

The Return to Player of Blazing Coins Deluxe: Hold & Win is 96.08%, more or less average in our view, as we use 96% as our yardstick for average.

The range of bets on the site we tested ran from a minimum bet per spin of $/£/€0.05 up to a maximum of $/£/€100.00 per spin.

Blazing Coins Deluxe: Hold & Win has low volatility. This means that wins tend to be more common but the payouts are smaller. It also means this slot is no good for our preferred slot strategies, as our ideal is a high-volatility slot with high RTP. This slot has neither.

Conclusion

We do not recommend Blazing Coins Deluxe: Hold & Win. The build is uninspiring, and the artwork and animations are off-putting.

Additionally, the low volatility means it doesn't work with our slot strategies.

Overall, there are many better slots that have a similar theme, bonus, and gameplay. Search out one of them instead.
