IS7 9 Masks of Fire: Reels, Masks & Bonus Features
Recognise the original 9 Masks of Fire and understand its reel layout, stacked masks and free-spin wheel before comparing it with other games in the series.
Identify the original game
The gold mask with blue details is the artwork used for 9 Masks of Fire in IS7’s scrolling collection. The original slot is developed by Gameburger Studios. It uses five reels, three rows and 20 paylines, giving it a conventional reel layout beneath the distinctive mask artwork.
Check the complete name when opening it. King Millions, HyperSpins and 12 Masks of Fire Drums are separate versions or related titles. An extra word in the name can change which features and rules apply.
Paylines and stacked masks
The original combines a classic sevens-based reel game with stacked mask symbols. The masks have their own role in the game’s awards, so they should not be read as ordinary decorative symbols.
A payline is a defined route through the reels. The paytable shows which symbol combinations qualify along those routes and how mask awards are counted. Looking at that diagram is more useful than judging a result from how many colourful symbols happen to be visible.
The free-spin wheel
Gameburger describes the bonus as a wheel-led free-spin feature with multipliers. The wheel establishes the feature’s award; the subsequent spins then produce their own results. The presence of a multiplier does not make every spin a winning one.
Read the multiplier beside the award it affects. If the rules separate regular line wins from mask prizes, keep those categories separate when checking a total. Our game glossary explains the terms used around these displays.
A short paytable check
- Confirm that the title is the original 9 Masks of Fire.
- Look at the active paylines and the rules for mixed sevens.
- Read the mask-award table separately from the ordinary symbol table.
- Check the wheel trigger and which wins receive its multiplier.
Is this the progressive-jackpot version?
The plain title does not identify the King Millions edition. Do not apply that edition’s jackpot description to the original simply because both use a similar mask. This page follows the original title pictured in the IS7 carousel.
Does a mask on the card promise a bonus?
No. A catalogue image helps you recognise the game; it is not the outcome of a spin. Use the game’s current rules and settled results for actual awards. For a different feature structure, compare Big Bass Splash, or return to the guide directory.
