Ultra Hot Deluxe

Ultra Hot Deluxe from Novomatic is the definition of “classic slot”. Basic would be the best word to describe it. The gameplay is easy to follow and not many extras are to be expected.

Ultra Hot Deluxe is a good choice for gamblers who like retro visuals and sounds. On our part, we love its simplicity. As for high rollers… well! We doubt it very much they’ll even think of bothering to give it a go.

Theme

Think in terms of the good old fruit machines and you’ll come pretty close to describing Ultra Hot Deluxe in two words. Again, there’s more to the game than meets the eye, but don’t expect anything flashy (we mean – anything!).

The soundtrack is rather nostalgic (we’d be disappointed if it weren’t), the visuals - easy on the eye, and the gameplay – as smooth as it can get. A rather relaxing experience, all told.

Betting Options and Other Functions

Ultra Hot Deluxe is a 3-reel, 5-payline slot. The coin value can be set only to $1. The maximum of 2.000 coins per line can be wagered. The RTP stands at 95.17% and the jackpot – at 3.000 coins.

Regular symbols comprise Xs, oranges, plums, berries, lemons, bars, stars, and 7s.

Payouts:

• 3 Xs pay out 0.40 coins;
• 3 fruits (any) pay out 3.20 coins;
• 3 bars pay out 4.80 coins;
• 3 stars pay out 16 coins;
• 3 7s pay out 60 coins.

All wins pay left to right.

Features

Don’t expect any scatters or wilds in Ultra Hot Deluxe! These are, after all, curiosities of the modern times. Here we’re talking about a game that had boarded a wrong teleport and found itself wandering the plaza swarming with its futuristic slot-grandchildren.

However, the old marmot still has a trick up its sleeve. How about this: if you manage to fill the screen with the same symbol (any), the wager will be doubled!

One more thing: there’s the gamble feature (and it’s exactly what you thought it would be!). The player gets to guess the color of the card to be drawn. If successful, the wager will double. If not, it’ll be lost. Plain as a pikestaff.

Random musings:

Experienced gamblers will not need this piece of advice, but for those of you who’re just starting, it might come in handy. Simple games like this one are just perfect for beginners. Firstly, there are no complicated features or hard-to-follow rules. Secondly, what you see is what you get. And finally, you can give them a couple of free spins after having studied the rules and the paytable.

Our Take

We have that strange notion that every game that gets remade must be attractive to more players than we’re aware of. Novomatic’s Ultra Hot Deluxe differs from its predecessor in that it doesn’t display any control buttons below the reels. Rather, they are placed to the left and right, while the current info about the stake, balance, and the latest win are listed below. Give the slot a spin or a couple of ‘em for the good old times’ sake!
