Dragon's Fire — RTP, volatility and max win

Dragon's Fire is a dragon slot from Red Tiger, built on dragons, gold coins and warm orange and yellow tones. During play it randomly drops extra wilds onto the reels to complete line wins.

Dragon's Fire was released on August 2, 2018. The reels show dragons, coins and piles of gold in a bright fantasy style rather than a dark hellscape. The 5×4 grid is one row taller than the classic three-row format and carries 40 paylines. The bet peaks at €10, starting from €0.20, a fairly tight ceiling for high rollers.

Wins land on fixed paylines when matching symbols line up next to each other. With four rows instead of three, the lines cross a larger field and take more varied shapes. Some of the wilds in Dragon's Fire arrive at random and fill gaps in a line. Scatters unlock the free spins, and Dragon's Fire also collects energy symbols.

Random wilds: on some spins the game adds extra wilds to the reels, which can complete lines that would otherwise have paid nothing.

Energy collection: Dragon's Fire keeps count of the energy symbols that land on the reels.

Free spins: scatter symbols trigger the free spins round. Multipliers boost wins, so a single hit can pay far more than its paytable value.

Since Dragon's Fire uses multipliers on top of its random wilds, it is worth checking other inferno slots with multipliers, each listed with RTP and max win.

RTP 95.25%, lower than 72% of the 400 Inferno slots. Background: how RTP works on a slot. Volatility High, like 9 of the 17 slots in the Fire dragon theme. Background: what slot volatility means. Max win 10,000× (€100,000 at the highest stake). Background: what max win means on a slot.

Paying back 95.25%, Dragon's Fire sits low among the Inferno slots.

The ceiling reads differently: at 10,000× it beats roughly 75% of the group. A modest RTP paired with a high cap fits the high volatility, with big wins possible but spaced far apart.

Red Tiger gives casinos a band to pick the RTP of Dragon's Fire from, and since even the highest value is on the low side, the RTP comparison of inferno slots points to games that pay back more.
