Fire Archer (Pragmatic Play) – Review & Demo Play

Fire Archer Slot Review

I loaded up Fire Archer and straight away the Sherwood vibe hit me. It’s a 5x5 slot with 25 paylines, a high volatility engine and an RTP of 96.07%. The whole show revolves around a Super Wild target that spreads added wilds in up to eight directions, while the quiver scatters set off a round with five free spins. You can buy the feature for 100x the bet in some places, and the max win sits at 4,000x.

Fire Archer Slot Layout, Paytable, Audio, and Video

The 5x5 setup serves fifteen symbols at a time, with card royals as the lower tier and theme icons doing the heavy lifting. Premiums include a beer mug, Robin’s hat, a pouch of coins, and the archer himself. Five-of-a-kind lines on these pay up to 20x, while lower symbols sit well beneath that. Lines pay left to right across 25 paylines, with wins landing when three or more match from the first reel on consecutive reels.

Two special icons carry the features. The bullseye Super Wild is a target that can spread wilds in up to eight directions, while a golden lion is the regular wild that pays 30x for five and substitutes. The lion arrives via the Super Wild’s arrows rather than landing on its own. A quiver scatter appears on reels 1, 3, and 5 to trigger the bonus. The audio-visuals sell the mediaeval scene, with a marching soundtrack and an animated archer beside the grid.

Fire Archer Slot on Mobile Devices

You can spin Fire Archer on Android or iOS without downloading anything. It runs in the browser, renders cleanly on smaller screens, and keeps the layout readable in portrait or landscape. I had no trouble with touch controls or sound on mobile. The slot is built in HTML5, so the experience lines up well with desktop, with the same 5x5 grid, 25 lines, and the Super Wild behaviour matching what you get on a laptop.

Fire Archer Slot Gameplay

Bet from 0.25 to 125 per spin and hit the main button to start. The default sits at 2, which suits session testing. If you want it hands-off, Autoplay can run for up to 1,000 spins, and the space bar can also spin. The base game flows in a familiar way across 25 lines, with wins paid for three or more from the left. It’s a quick, punchy loop that lets the feature do the talking.

The regular wild is a golden lion that substitutes and pays 30x for a five-symbol line, but the bullseye Super Wild is the star. When it lands, our archer looses an arrow, 1 to 8 directions light up, and all symbols in those lanes turn into regular wilds up to the edge of the grid. Sometimes that’s a small nudge; sometimes it links a cracking line or two. It’s where base game spikes usually come from.

Fire Archer Slot Free Spins and Special Features

Three quiver scatters on reels 1, 3, and 5 award five free spins. During free spins, a Super Wild is guaranteed on the screen until the round ends, and it moves to a random position after each spin. Other Super Wilds don’t land in this mode. This is the arrow-spraying showcase for the feature, and it mirrors the base game spread mechanic while keeping a wild on every spin. It’s simple to follow and hits the point fast.

When the feature starts, the roaming Super Wild gets a random level from 1 to 8. That level sets how many directions light up and where wilds are added to the reels. Landing two scatters during free spins increases the level by +1 and grants 1, 2, or 3 extra spins. Once the Super Wild reaches level 8, it can’t be levelled further and no more free spins are awarded.

If patience isn’t your thing, you can buy the bonus for 100x the bet where allowed. Buying nudges the return to roughly 96.1% for that feature entry. From my sessions, the biggest rushes came when that walking Super Wild climbed a few levels and sprayed several lanes. Even at modest levels it can carve out tidy links, but when it points seven or eight ways, you feel the setup’s punch.

Fire Archer Slot RTP, Maximum Payout, and Volatility

Fire Archer’s default RTP is 96.07%, rising to around 96.1% on the buy. The game runs on a high volatility model with swings that can feel steep between highlight reels. The max win is capped at 4,000x the bet, which fits the feature set here. Some venues may use lower RTP settings such as 95.12% or 94.08%, and the stated hit frequency sits near 1 in 4.68, so expect stretches between stronger hits.

Fire Archer Slot Verdict

From a gameplay point of view, Fire Archer keeps things straightforward, and that suits the Super Wild down to the ground. The spreading wild action is the core, and it made for some exciting moments in testing. The base game acts as a taster, then the free spins round lets the feature flex with a guaranteed wild on each spin. It’s not bristling with side mechanics, yet the central idea lands well.

I’ve had spins where the pointer hit the edge and did little, and others where it spread in multiple directions and linked tidy lines. Pushing the Super Wild to seven or eight during free spins can be quite a thought, even with a 4,000x win cap in place. For a Sherwood stroll built around one strong feature, Fire Archer is worth a punt, and I’m happy to give it more time.
