Average Dad Collects $103,206.00 on Fire Portals at Gamdom Casino

The sight of a slot game hotting up and getting ready to spill a big win is one of the best and most exciting feelings you’ll get when playing at an online casino.

That buzz came true for Kick streamer Average Dad. He was playing Pragmatic Play’s Fire Portals at Gamdom.com when the free spins bonus round went into multiplier overdrive. 

The dynamic multiplying multipliers mechanic quickly bumped up Average Dad’s $50 bet into a mammoth $103,206.00, which is a 2,064.12x increase on his original stake.

After reviewing a video of the win that was shared by Gamdom on its official X.com page, Average Dad landed in the bonus feature with 12 free spins; however, he hit a retrigger, which awarded him an additional 10 spins.

With 13 free spins remaining, he had won just over $1,000, but there were four Fire Portal Wilds on the reels, with 1x, 2x, 6x, and 25x multipliers attached. 

On the following spin, two of the Wilds merged, creating a 78x multiplier. This Wild multiplier then connected with the 6x Wild to multiply up to 553x. After two cluster wins, both involving this huge Wild multiplier, Average Dad won over $76,000 from that single spin.

The edited video then fast forwards to where there are only a couple of free spins left. The total is now up to $96,510.00. He picks up a further $6,696.00 win, pushing the total win over 100K to $103,206.00.

Over the past 5+ years, Pragmatic Play has been one of the most prolific software developers in the iGaming industry. Its award-winning portfolio includes Gates of Olympus, Sweet Bonanza, the Big Bass series, Sugar Rush, Joker Jewels, and many others. 

However, as it has such a high output of new slots, several games, perhaps, don’t get the recognition they deserve, and I would place Fire Portals in that category.

This game appears to be inspired by the old Stargate TV series, as a massive man-made portal looms in the background behind the delightful 7x7 reel set. Fire Portals uses a cluster pays win mechanic, with 5 or more matching symbols that are adjacent to one another creating a payout.

As found on many Pragmatic slots, Tumble Reels are activated after a cluster win. This allows the symbols above to fall down and new ones to drop in from the top to complete the reels, potentially creating multiple wins from a single spin.

In addition to Tumble Reels, Fire Portals primary features are:

A Fire Portal Wild symbol appears after a cluster win. When they first show up, they start with a 1x multiplier. If that Wild multiplier is part of another winning cluster, the multiplier increases by +1. It then moves to an empty up/down/left/right one position on the reels to an empty spot generated by the win.

When two Fire Portal symbols merge, their respective multiplier values are multiplied together, which, as witnessed on Average Dad’s win, can create some gigantic multiplier totals and payouts. In the base game, all Fire Portals are removed from the reels when no more cluster wins are possible.

The Book scatter symbols are the key to unlocking the Fire Portals free spins feature. Players are awarded between 10 and 18 free spins depending on the number of scatters.

The free spins round plays the same as the base game, with the exception of the Fire Portal Wilds. These are sticky throughout this feature, so once they appear on the reels, they remain there until the end. This can result in players collecting incredibly high multiplier wins, particularly when the Fire Portal Wilds merge together.
