9 Masks of Fire HyperSpins (Gameburger Studios) – Review & Demo Play

9 Masks of Fire HyperSpins - Slot Overview

I’ve hammered 9 Masks of Fire HyperSpins since release, and it plays like the original with a neat HyperSpins add-on. You get a 5-reel, 3-row grid with 20 fixed paylines, a hot look, and that drum-heavy soundtrack. It’s medium volatility, so the rhythm suits sessions. Stakes run from 20p to £60. Wins land left to right, while mask scatters pay anywhere. The game keeps that simple, fiery flow, then lets you pick off reels when it matters via HyperSpins.

9 Masks of Fire HyperSpins Features

The HyperSpins feature sits only in the base game, letting me respin individual reels as many times as I fancy. The price changes based on what’s already showing, and only wins involving the respun reel are paid. I use it to chase the third bonus scatter or to stack up more masks for a jump in the scatter prize. It’s an acquired taste, but in this slot it slots in well and adds a layer of control to the grind.

Mask symbols can land anywhere, and 3 to 9 in view award instant cash prizes: 1x, 5x, 15x, 40x, 100x, 500x, or 2,000x your bet. Bonus scatters appear on reels 2, 3, and 4; land all three to spin the free spin wheel. That wheel awards 10 to 30 free spins with a 2x or 3x multiplier, applied to line wins only, not mask prizes. Hit 3 scatters again to retrigger for the same number of spins you won initially.

Game Symbols in 9 Masks of Fire HyperSpins

The Diamond Wild replaces regular pays and is the top symbol on lines, paying 125x your stake for five of a kind. Premium 7s carry the weight: single, double, and triple 7s pay roughly 7.5x, 20x, and 37.6x for a five-line hit, and mixed 7s also count for wins. Lower pays are cherries, Bars, bells, and dollar signs, with full lines topping out beneath the 7s. It’s classic, quick to read, and suits the mask chase.

Line wins need at least three matching symbols from the leftmost reel across the 20 paylines. Wilds help plug gaps for those, while mask scatters pay anywhere and do not use lines. This mix lets the base keep ticking with small line hits and sudden mask ladders. I keep an eye on where 7s stack, as a timely HyperSpin on a promising reel can turn a mixed 7s line into a stronger single, double, or triple 7 payout.

RTP and Variance in 9 Masks of Fire HyperSpins

RTP sits at 96.24% in standard play and rises to 96.74% when using HyperSpins. The maths leans medium volatility, so you get a blend of smaller line hits, mask pops, and the odd free spins run with a 2x or 3x multiplier. The top masked prize caps at 2,000x per spin, while a five-line wild pays 125x. I treat HyperSpins as a paid nudge rather than a shortcut, as costs can stack when you chase too hard.

How to Play 9 Masks of Fire HyperSpins

Set your stake between 20p and £60, then spin the 5x3 grid and watch for mask scatters and bonus shields on reels 2, 3, and 4. When the grid shows two bonus shields or several masks, consider HyperSpinning a single reel to complete the setup. The price reflects the potential, and only wins from that reel count, so pick your spots. Trigger the wheel, bag your free spins and multiplier, and lean on wilds and 7s for the line wins.

9 Masks of Fire HyperSpins Slot Verdict

If you were into the original, you’ll feel right at home. This is the exact same core, with HyperSpins bolted on. It makes you savour each spin in a different way and gives that feeling of being more in control. At times it can seem like you can game the system; sometimes it pays off to a hilarious degree, other times it can leave a hole where your balance used to be. I like it here because masks and centre reels give clear targets.

My go-to lines are simple: build towards 7s and masks in base, HyperSpin only when two scatters show or when one reel completes a decent ladder. The FS multiplier not applying to mask prizes is a bit of a miss, but the wheel delivering up to 30 spins at 3x keeps me engaged. As a seasoned spinner, I rate this version as a tidy upgrade that respects the original while giving me tactical spots to press.
