What could be better than a slot with Red Tiger’s signature polished graphics? A tasty blend of expertly simmered style and spicy gameplay, of course! Hot Hot Chilli Pot is a Red Tiger release, but does it boast any unique features that will take your breath away? The answer is a bit complicated.
Hot Hot Chilli Pot is a 7×7 slot with a cluster pays mechanic. It has a decent range of available bets, too, from €0.10 to €100, as well as low volatility that makes it a good pick for players in search of a quiet, restful experience. You might not find yourself bowing out from the heat, in other words, but you will have plenty of time to enjoy the flavour with the game’s 95.76% RTP. Lucky players stand to win 1,951x their stake.
Are you interested in learning more about what you can expect to experience while spinning? First, the bad news: there are no free spins. There is no separate bonus round whatsoever! Instead, the game offers three modifiers, each attached to its own wild, as well as an “Armageddon” feature that adds at least one chilli wild to the board, potentially giving players a win.
Let’s take a closer look at the slot features!
Green Chilli Wild
Hot Hot Chilli Pot features three separate wilds. We will first discuss the green chilli wild, which grants a “total win” multiplier of up to 10x. That means the total of the spin’s winnings will be multiplied accordingly.
Red Chilli Wild
Not all wilds are designed to lead to a win directly. Hot Hot Chilli Pot’s red chilli wild helps players find better combinations by removing low-paying symbols from the grid, but it does not guarantee a win on its own. It helps ensure that players find the most lucrative wins possible, and it is a symbol worth watching.
Yellow Chilli Wild
The third wild Hot Hot Chilli Pot has to offer is its Yellow Chilli Wild. This symbol adds some fire to the reels! We mean that literally, of course – it adds “fire wilds” to the board. These wilds substitute for paying symbols but otherwise add no specific “extras” to the grid.
Should more than one chilli wild hit the reels, they pay out from green to red to yellow.
Armageddon
Usually, a spin with no wins is rarely worthy of a celebration. In Hot Hot Chilli Pot, however, the experience can turn into an exciting one! The game’s “Armageddon” feature is activated on non-winning spins at random and offers players a random number of chilli wilds to the grid. With any luck, this will turn a mediocre turn into a lucrative investment.

Hot Hot Chilli Pot verdict
Hot Hot Chilli Pot looks beautiful, but it doesn’t necessarily burn quite as bright as we had hoped. The spice is certainly there, especially once the wilds get going, but we would struggle to name any specific feature that stands out.
We wish Red Tiger’s new slot offered some additional game phase or free spins to break up the gameplay a bit. The main problem is that the game does not feel it is surging towards something credible without them. And while the 1,951x max win is nice, it is not the most impressive on the market.
However, it is not all bad, and while Red Tiger’s upcoming release might not be the hottest on the market, it is an undeniably tasty addition to the developer’s catalogue. Players who enjoy cooking-themed slots with familiar features might find this to be an excellent option. Even those who do not adore the concept will likely not find the title offensive but somewhat lacklustre.
Is Hot Hot Chilli Pot worth playing? That is a question you will need to answer yourself. Red Tiger’s new slot is set for release on the 11th of November 2021.
