There’s an olde worlde feel to the design in Tinderbox Treasures - a dingy looking vault filled with skulls and coins forms the backdrop to the reels. There you’ll find A to 10 playing cards on planks of wood. They’re joined by an executioner and a boss-eyed old lady, both of whom offer awards of up to 3 times stake per payline. Next come the king and his daughter who offer awards of up to 4 times stake. The soldier is the top payer, offering 10 times stake if you land 5 on a line.
There are 3 doggie-inspired wild symbols which appear on reels 2, 3 and 4 only. Land a copper wild and you’ll activate the Dog Wild Re-Spin feature – you will then see 2-high silver wilds on that re-spin. If your win includes a silver wild, the payout is doubled. Land a silver wild in full and you’ll receive another re-spin. This one comes with 3-high gold wilds which boost wins with a 3x multiplier.
Land the scatter on the middle 3 reels on the same spin to trigger the Free Games feature - here you’ll be awarded 10 free spins with 3x stacked wild multipliers. Before the feature begins, there a chance to add some extras as you choose 1 of the 3 doors to win an extra 5 free spins, stacked scatters or wild multipliers worth 5x. Better still is if you find a Tinderbox as this awards all 3 modifier extras.
Any scatters collected during the free spins award a Dog Spin – for use in the Dog Spins feature. These are played out once the main allocation of free spins has played. Each 1 comes with the copper, silver and gold dog wilds as well as the regular wild.
Playtech has created a fine-looking slot game here. The visuals are done cartoon style and work rather well. The sweeping soundtrack has a fantastical quality which is a nice fit. The features here offer something a little different too. The multipliers from the re-spins can deliver some decent action as can the free spins round, especially if you land the full complement of modifier extras.
There’s something a little creepy about this fairy tale adventure. It works pretty well though. Get lucky with these Tinderboxes and you could indeed find hidden treasure. If you like the fairy tale theme, Rapunzel’s Tower by Quickspin is recommended.
