Phoenix DuelReels
Phoenix DuelReels is a fantasy slot where a legendary phoenix and a water dragon duel on the reels. It was released on December 30, 2024, and you can try it right away with the free demo, no sign-up needed.
What is the DuelReels mechanic?
When a VS symbol lands and can join a win or create a new one, it expands into a Wild DuelReel. On the expanded reel, the phoenix and the water dragon each stake a multiplier and duel, and the survivor’s multiplier applies to the whole reel. It’s the signature mechanic of this Hacksaw Gaming slot, with a duel presentation as its main appeal.
How do multipliers work with multiple DuelReels?
If two or more DuelReels are part of the same winning combination, their reel multipliers are added together before being applied. A fully expanded DuelReel counts the entire reel as wild, substituting for all symbols. Only one VS symbol can land per reel. The multiplier can vary a lot on the same reel depending on the duel result. Since only one VS symbol appears per reel, each reel gets one duel.
When does the revival spin appear?
If the phoenix loses a duel on even one DuelReel, you get a revival spin respin. In this respin, at least 1 VS symbol is guaranteed, and it repeats until no more DuelReels where the phoenix lost appear. In a way, the phoenix losing becomes an opportunity. That’s why multipliers climb sharply when two or three DuelReels overlap on one line. The multiplier changes with every duel, so the same layout gives different results each time.
How do you pick the phoenix egg in the bonus gamble?
When entering the bonus, you can start right away or choose the gamble. If you choose the gamble, you open up to three of five phoenix eggs to get 2 to 10 extra spins, and in a Fire and Water bonus you may even be upgraded to Rise of the Phoenix. The gamble is available once per bonus, and once more after an upgrade.
What should I check first in the demo?
The RTP is 96.28%, volatility is medium, and the max win is 10,000x. The hit frequency is on the low side at 26%. In the demo, compare Fire and Water with 3 FS symbols against Rise of the Phoenix with 4 FS symbols. In Rise, a revival spin guarantees a VS for as many DuelReels as the phoenix lost. During the bonus, 2 FS symbols add 2 spins and 3 add 4.
Pros
- The tension of the duel result deciding the multiplier
- The revival spin that follows when the phoenix loses
- Medium volatility with a 96.28% RTP
Cons
- A 26% hit frequency means many empty spins
- The gamble can lose you winnings depending on the result
