By Matthew Kennedy | Updated 4 March 2024

Blast your way to a fortune with Cash Eruption, a new slot release from IGT. This slot game is packed with features which include expanding wilds, jumbo symbols, free spins and 4 fixed jackpots.

Slot details

Cash Eruption is a 5 reel, 3 row video slot with 20 paylines. It has a high variance and an RTP set at 96%. Wagering starts from 20p up to £40 per spin and the game can be played across all devices.The reels are set on the floor inside an Aztec temple. Symbols are cherries, oranges, grapes, blue7’s, bells, lemons, plums, watermelons and red 7’s. The latter will pay out x12.5 of your wager for 5 on a payline.The Fire Goddess is the wild symbol and will substitute all others barring the volcano scatter and the fireball bonus symbol.

Gameplay

The wild symbol can only appear on the 2^nd to 5^th reels and expands to fill the entire reel when it lands. This can happen on all 4 reels.Landing 3, 4, or 5 scatters in a single spin award you with x2, x15, and x100 of your wager respectively, and trigger the free spins feature giving you 6 free spins.During the feature, jumbo size symbols land on the 2^nd to 4^th reels, and those reels will be linked. Then if a scatter lands on these reels you receive another 3 free spins.Landing 6 of the bonus fireball symbols activates the Cash Eruption bonus feature. These symbols lock into position and you are awarded 3 respins. Each further fireball that lands on the reels reset the respins back to 3.Fireball symbols come with cash values attached worth up to x90 of your wager or either the Mini, Minor, or Major jackpot. If you fill the reels with fireballs, you win the Grand jackpot which is worth a whopping £10k.I was expecting to see a totally different theme for Cash Eruption, but it is just another classic slot, albeit with a twist. I enjoyed the extra features, but the most you can potentially win in the base game is x1,000 of your wager. I am sure everyone will have their eyes on winning the Grand Jackpot and pocketing the £10k prize.
