The original 9 Masks of Fire was a runaway success for Games Global and Gameburger Studios, so 9 Masks of Fire HyperSpins had to turn up the heat to do better than its predecessor, and I think it did. The familiar fiery African theme is spiced up with the addition of the HyperSpins mechanic that gives you more control over your winning chances and the opportunity to claim the top prize of $120 000.

Hyperspins Feature: The most significant difference is adding the Hyperspins feature in "9 Masks of Fire Hyperspins," which is not present in the original "9 Masks of Fire."
This feature allows players to respin individual reels at a cost, offering a strategic element to the game.
Player Control: "9 Masks of Fire Hyperspins" offers more control over the outcome of the spins with the Hyperspins feature, which can lead to a more engaging and potentially more rewarding gameplay experience.
So while "9 Masks of Fire" provides a solid and straightforward slot experience, "9 Masks of Fire Hyperspins" adds an extra layer of interactivity and strategy with the Hyperspins feature, appealing to players who enjoy having more influence over their gameplay.
The game has a regular 5x3 grid and below the reels, you’ll find the controls that allow you to spin, use Autoplay, and change your bet or the spin speed.
To the left of the reels is an imposing indicator that shows you how much you could win from the Scatter Pays feature. Below each reel, you will see a small HyperSpins bar, but we will get into how those work below.
HyperSpins
This exciting feature is only available in the base game and allows you to spin individual reels as often as possible. This puts a lot of control in your hands because you can land the scatter symbols you need to trigger the bonus round, or more mask symbols and regular symbols for bigger wins.
The cost of spinning each reel depends on how likely that spin is to trigger a win or feature. If you want to see how this feature holds up in other games, check out Playboy Fortunes HyperSpins.
Scatter Pays
Landing 3 or more golden mask symbols anywhere on the reels will get you an instant cash prize. The more masks you land, the bigger your prize will be. For landing 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 masks, you will win a prize worth 1x, 5, 15x, 40x, 100x, 500x, or 2000x your bet, respectively.
Free Spins
To trigger the bonus round, you need 3 shield scatter symbols to land on reels 2, 3, and 4.
A bonus wheel will appear, and when you click it, it will spin to award 10 to 30 free spins with a 2x or 3x multiplier. The multiplier will not apply to mask scatter wins, and you can retrigger this feature by landing another 3 shield scatters.
If you haven’t experienced the HyperSpins mechanic before, you might want to check out our free demo version of 9 Masks of Fire HyperSpins. With unlimited funds, you can find out how to use the feature to your advantage and get the best out of the game when you are finally ready to spend some real money.
This game has medium volatility, so the action will be split between regular smaller wins and less frequent big prizes. The interesting thing about the RTP is that it starts at 96.24% during regular play, but when you use the HyperSpins mechanic, it increases to 96.74%, giving you a better statistical chance of a fair return on your bets.
9 Masks of Fire HyperSpins is an example of how a great slot can get even better with the right upgrade. The same iconic African theme and lucrative scatter pays are back, but this time round you have more control over the outcome of your spins. The top potential of $120 000 might not do much for you, so if you are after bigger wins with exotic themes, try out Tiki Fruits Totem Frenzy and Azteca.
