9 Blazing Diamonds Wowpot Review

Having had such great success with 9 Blazing Diamonds, it’s only natural that SpinPlay and Microgaming follow up with a sequel. The WowPot progressive jackpot system is pretty much a perfect fit for this game, making the Blazing Wheel spin even more exciting than it already was. Visually, not much has changed from the first release, but what can you expect from a simple fruit slot.

Of course, potentially life-changing jackpots come with a price, and you’ll have to tolerate a significantly lower RTP in this version. The theoretical returns have been lowered to 93.3 %, and this sequel is also a bit more volatile overall. This might not sit well with all players, but fans of the original now have the opportunity to chase even bigger wins.

9 Blazing Diamonds Wowpot Features

The flaming wild steps in for all regular pay symbols to help you form winning combinations. It also happens to be the most valuable symbol in the game in its own right. You win 40x your stake when 5 appear on a payline, but the Blazing Diamond scatters still steals the show.

Landing 3 to 9 Blazing Diamond scatters award an instant scatter cash prize worth between 1x and 2,500x your stake.

Here is a precise overview of what to expect from the instant scatter wins:

• 3 Blazing Diamonds awards 1x your stake.
• 4 Blazing Diamonds awards 5x your stake.
• 5 Blazing Diamonds awards 10x your stake.
• 6 Blazing Diamonds awards 50x your stake.
• 7 Blazing Diamonds awards 100x your stake.
• 8 Blazing Diamonds awards 500x your stake.
• 9 Blazing Diamonds awards 2,500x your stake.

Landing a bonus symbol on reels 1 and 3, together with the bonus icon on reels 5, triggers the Blazing Wheel feature. This awards 10, 15, 20, 25 or 30 free spins, a multiplier of 2x, 3x or 4x, or the Mini, Minor, Major or WowPot jackpots. The multiplier boosts all wins during the bonus round, including the Blazing Diamond jackpots.

The Blazing Wheel jackpots are progressive, and they come with the following seed levels:

• Mini Jackpot seeds at £10.
• Minor Jackpot seeds at £100.
• Major Jackpot seeds at £50,000.
• WowPot Jackpot seeds at £2 million.

The WowPot dropped at £15,183,085.96 the first time it was won, and this happened at 32Red Casino on the 14th of April 2021. It was a British player who took it down with an 80p bet on Book of Atem: WowPot.

The 200 Spins 9 Blazing Diamonds Wowpot Experience

Nothing too exciting happened in the base game, but we landed a couple of okay wins. The Blazing Wheel feature is triggered at 1:33 into the 5-minute highlights video, and we got 20 free spins and a 4x multiplier.

Review Summary

9 Blazing Diamonds Wowpot is pretty much the same game as the successful original 9 Blazing Diamond from SpinPlay. It’s a bit more volatile though, and the RTP has been lowered from 96.33 % to 93.3 %. This is the price you pay for being able to land the 4 progressive jackpots, and the top-tier WowPot has life-changing potential more or less from the get-go.

The instant scatter win concept creates an enjoyable tension at all stages of the game, and with the added massive jackpot potential you’re in for an even more enjoyable ride here. We don’t see any reason why players who loved the original will not be all over this sequel, but it might be wise to wait until the WowPot has grown into a sizable amount before you start.

Pros

• Scatter prizes up to 2,500x your stake
• Bonus round w/ up to 10,000x scatter prizes
• 4 progressive jackpots
• WowPot jackpot seeds at £2 million

Cons

• RTP of 93.3 % will take a toll in the long run

If you love 9 Blazing Diamonds Wowpot you should also try:

9 Blazing Diamonds - is the original smash hit from SpinPlay, and it comes with medium volatility and a solid 96.33 % RTP. You can still win up to 10,000x your stake from the scatter prizes during the bonus round, and up to 2,500x your stake in the base game, and from the blazing wheel.

Book of Atem WowPot - is an All41 installment in the WowPot series from Microgaming, and it comes with a randomly chosen expanding symbol in the bonus round. You’ll collect scatter/wilds to trigger the jackpot feature at random times, and the WowPot starts at £2 million.

Egyptian Tombs - is a Snowborn installment that’s pretty similar, but without the massive progressive jackpots. You need to land 10 scatters to win the 10,000x top prize, and random super spins provide extra scatters to help you in that regard. Expect even more super spins in the bonus round.
