Though players can access the progressive jackpot with any bet stake, nonetheless, the jackpot amounts increase with higher wagers.

During the Free game bonus round, all other symbols are changed to blank symbols, and three free spins are awarded. Each spin can reveal additional Hot Hit symbols, extra spin symbols, or blank symbols. At the end of the bonus, players are awarded any respective progressive level for collecting seven or more Hot Hit® symbols. This can lead to some decent wins.

 In addition, The Mystery stacks in the base game offer huge multiway wins.

The Hot Hit Pick Bonus is another feature to look forward to. This feature is triggered when three or more green Hot Hit symbols land on the reels. All Hot Hit® symbols are locked in place, and all other symbols are replaced to dollar sign symbols. Players can then swipe or pick all dollar sign symbols to reveal credits or additional Hot Hit® symbols. At the end of the bonus round, the credits revealed are awarded to the player.
