This is Bally’s latest incarnation of the legendary Blazing 7s theme, on the wide-body Alpha Elite S9C cabinet and the popular “Frenzy” format, which utilizes a three-reel base stepper game with a fourth reel used exclusively for bonuses. There also is a small color LCD video screen just beneath the reels, used for the bonus event.
The base game in Fireball Frenzy is the classic Triple Blazing 7s, with a basic pay schedule including cherry and bar symbols along with four different “7” combinations—mixed, single, double and triple 7s, the latter yielding the top line jackpot. It is configurable by the operator with three, five, nine, 15, 20, 25 or 30 paylines and per-line wagers from one to 50 credits.
The fourth reel includes multiplier symbols of 2X, 3X, 5X and 10X, along with a straight 10-credit bonus award symbol and the Fireball Frenzy symbol, which triggers the bonus event. The fourth-reel bonus applies to winning combinations on any active payline of the first three reels.
When the Fireball Frenzy symbol lands on the fourth reel with a winning combination on an active payline on the first three reels, it triggers a straight bonus award. The player is prompted to select one of three fireballs appearing on the small LCD screen to reveal a bonus award.
The operator has a lot of flexibility in the configuration of the game, with wide ranges of theoretical hold, paylines and denominations—it is available in denominations ranging from pennies all the way to the $100 denomination.
