Lava Island Slot
Take a trip to a beautiful exotic destination with Lava Island, the online video slot from Spade Gaming.
Immerse yourself in the spectacular surroundings while you compete to win cash prizes on the reels.
But will you avoid being caught up in the molten hot volcano? Here's a review of Lava Island with everything you need to know.
Paradise Island
Spade Gaming have created a lush landscape which looks like a paradise retreat from the hurly burly of everyday life.
But amongst the trees, plants and tropical scenery is an explosive secret which could just put an end to your dreams of a quiet life. Look past the tranquil appearance and into the horizon and you'll see a towering peak looming over the island. But this is no ordinary mountain, it's a volcano!
The question is will you be able to avoid its molten lava and leave the island safe and well?
Even if you avoid the volcano, the island may not be the safe haven you were hoping for. Take a look at the reels and be prepared for a nasty shock....
Rather than a blissful spread of sandy beaches and sheltered tropical jungle, there's a whole host of beasties waiting with a hungry look on their face. Choose from piranha, tarantulas, snakes and crocodiles plus the volcano makes another appearance. There's some native people too but can you be sure they're friendly?
Survey Your Surroundings
Once you've gotten over the shock of the perils that lurk under every tree and bush, you can carefully start to explore the prizes which may await. Risking life and limb in a place like this has to bring a reward!
To find out what you could win, exit the main screen and move to the paytable.
To get a payout you'll need to match at least three symbols, but the more you match the greater your prize will be. Every symbol is worth a different amount with the beasties generally worth more than the playing cards.
The exploding volcano is the scatter symbol and if you land this you'll win free spins. The native of the island is the wild symbol which also expands. The wild appears on reels 2 and 4 and can take the place of any of the other symbols apart from the scatter and the jackpot.
Tackle the Enemy
Once you've surveyed all that awaits, it's time to take your place in front of the reels and brace whatever awaits. But just before you do, don't forget to set up your bet.
You'll be playing on 5 reels set out in a traditional 5x3 configuration. There's a maximum of 30 paylines but you can reduce this using the plus and minus keys on the main screen if you want to play with less.
You can also change the value of each coin from the minimum of 0.01 up to a maximum of 1.00. There's ten separate bet settings too if you really want to ramp up the stakes. The Max Bet button will push the stake right up to the limit saving you the hassle of having to crank everything up manually. But be prepared, if you choose the Max Bet the wheel will begin to spin right away; don't click on it unless you're sure!
You are in with a chance of winning the jackpot if you play on all 30 paylines. The World Wonder symbol will allow you to play on the World Wonders Wheel. You have four separate chances to hit the World Wonder jackpot with a maximum of three spins of the wheel, depending on how many symbols you landed.
If you're keen to keep on winning more, you could try the risky gamble feature. This becomes available every time you secure a win and allows you to try to double or quadruple what you've just won. All you have to do is guess either the colour or the suit of the card about to be turned over; get it right and you'll walk away with big money but get it wrong and you'll return to the main game with nothing.
Nightmare Destination
Although Lava Island may look like the place that fantasies are made of, developer Spade Gaming has made it the ultimate nightmare destination. The graphics are simply sublime and with so many creepy predators you might be wishing that they weren't so realistic! The game is packed full of features with lots of chances to win, so it's guaranteed to keep all players entertained.
