Blazing Piranhas

Four human characters find themselves outnumbered by hungry fish in Blazing Piranhas, Pear Fiction Studios' follow-up to its earlier zombie-themed release, sharing a similarly bright, cartoon-toned art style. The setting is a sunlit lake, and the cast splits between blue, green, orange and purple piranhas on the lower paytable and four story characters holding the higher values.

The grid itself spans 5 reels and 3 rows, offering 20 fixed lines to win on, and pays out on a little better than one spin in four across the base game; a choice of four RTP settings tops out at 96.01%, and volatility is rated high. Stakes span 10p to £/€50, and matching combinations of three, four or five symbols pay out starting from the leftmost reel.

Piranha Wilds slide one position to the left whenever a character symbol sits immediately to their right, leaving a standard wild behind as they move; more than one can be active during a single spin, and any wild created this way clears before the next round begins. Wilds stand in for every regular pay symbol.

Six coin symbols in view triggers LockNWin, opening with three respins. Coins that trigger the feature stay locked while everything else clears from the board, and any newly landed coin resets the respin count; the round ends once respins run out or every position fills up. Four coin types can appear: plain coins worth up to 12 times the stake, a Multiplier Coin that pays out and also boosts every other coin present (bar star coins) by as much as five times its own value, a Key Coin that pays and unlocks additional rows, and a Star Coin that passes play into the Jackpot LockNWin once the base round finishes. Filling every position across all reels pays out the top jackpot outright.

Inside the Jackpot LockNWin, coins land across a fixed matrix, and matching three to a single row pays whichever prize tier that row represents, running from a modest amount right up to 5,000x the stake at the very top. A separate Jackpot Wheel builds toward those same tiers via its own progress meter, filled by landing coins and kept in place per stake level if the bet size changes; once full, a spin of the wheel decides which prize pays.

Scatters govern the free spins side of the game. Landing three, four or five opens a choice screen offering different combinations of spin counts and starting wild totals, with the higher scatter counts unlocking longer rounds and more generous wild starts. Whichever option is picked reappears randomly through the round, and landing enough scatters to retrigger repeats that same selection rather than offering a fresh one.

A bonus buy menu offers four direct routes into the action: either bonus round, a shot at the Jackpot LockNWin specifically, or a single spin of the Jackpot Wheel, each priced at roughly thirty to fifty times the stake.
