Iron Phoenix Slot Review

Iron Phoenix Slot Overview

Iron Phoenix throws me straight into a temple high on a misty mountain, with dragons curling round the reels and the phoenix gliding above as a special reel. Push Gaming lean into Eastern mythology and the Four Guardians idea, yet keep the focus on jackpots and instant prizes. It feels like a jackpot slot first and an Asian fantasy second, which suits me when I want steady action rather than heavy story.

The real hook in Iron Phoenix is that Phoenix Reel sitting over the middle three reels, spinning along with every paid spin. Instead of a separate jackpot bonus, the prizes, scatters and cash values are always right there, teasing you while you grind through the base game. That constant promise from above gives the slot a very different rhythm compared with standard hold and win style jackpots.

Iron Phoenix Slot Information & Maths

Iron Phoenix runs on a five reel, three row layout with twenty fixed paylines, paying for three or more matching symbols from left to right. Stakes start at ten pence and reach one hundred pounds per spin, and you can double that with the Push Bet option, which raises the chance of triggering free spins. The default RTP is 96.24 percent, other settings include 94.01 and 85.29 percent, and max win is 12,242 times stake.

Iron Phoenix Slot Features and Phoenix Reel

Iron Phoenix keeps that Phoenix Reel active over reels two, three and four in both game modes. In the base game you need three phoenix symbols at once, one on each of those reels, to claim whatever sits on the upper reel for that spin. That prize can be a cash amount from three to one hundred times stake, the Mini, Minor, Major or Mega jackpots worth 10x, 50x, 200x or 1,000x, or a strip of three scatters.

Free spins in Iron Phoenix arrive when three, four or five scatters appear across the reels and Phoenix Reel together, giving ten, fifteen or twenty spins. During the bonus, that single Phoenix Reel splits into three separate ones, each linked to its own middle reel. Now every phoenix symbol instantly triggers the reward shown above it, which can chain hits of cash values and jackpots in a way you rarely see during the standard game.

Iron Phoenix also adds a progression bar in free spins, collecting every phoenix symbol that lands. Four symbols move you up a level, giving four extra spins at levels one, two and three, then four more spins plus a ten times multiplier to Phoenix Reel prizes and jackpots at level four. Scatters on the upper reels can add one to five spins. When I get bored waiting, I pay 65x stake for Random Bonus Symbols or flip on Push Bet.

Symbols and Paytable in Iron Phoenix

The paytable in Iron Phoenix sticks to clear groups of symbols. At the lower end you have the four card suits, which pay around 0.5x to 0.6x stake for five of a kind. The mid range is made up of the blue fish, purple bottle and red lantern, worth between 1.2x and 2.5x for a full line. The real premiums are the dragon, tortoise and tiger icons, paying 3x to 20x for five.

Wilds in Iron Phoenix land on all five reels and substitute for every regular symbol, while paying exactly the same as the top dragon symbol, up to twenty times stake for five on a line. Scatters are separate, used purely to trigger free spins or appear as a triple strip on the Phoenix Reel. The phoenix itself acts as a special symbol that never pays directly, only as a trigger for those upper reel awards.

Theme & Graphics in Iron Phoenix

Iron Phoenix looks and sounds very much like a high end Eastern fantasy slot, with a mist covered mountain temple behind the reels and animated dragons carved around the frame. The soundtrack builds slowly, giving spins a calm yet tense feel before the Phoenix Reel snaps into life with bright fire effects. I find the overall presentation clean and focused, keeping attention on that upper reel and the jackpot ladder to the left.

Final Words on Iron Phoenix Slot

For me, Iron Phoenix is one of those jackpot slots that lives or dies with how often you connect the Phoenix Reel. The base game on its own runs smoothly thanks to the low to medium volatility, with frequent smaller hits from wilds and premiums, but the memorable sessions always involve strings of phoenix symbols and level ups in the bonus. Every serious win I have seen came from those top reels rather than line hits.

I would not call Iron Phoenix a revolution for Push Gaming, yet it does give the fixed jackpot format a slightly different spin through that always present bonus reel and the x10 multiplier at the top level. The Phoenix Reel can feel stubborn in the base game, and many bonuses top out with no sight of level four, but when the bird cooperates the slot has enough punch to justify grinding for that 12,242x potential.
