Cash Strike Hotstepper

Cash Strike Hotstepper by Blueprint Gaming offers a classic casino slot experience with a modern twist. The game features a simple and straightforward design with a 3×3 reel grid and 5 paylines.

There are no Wild symbols in Cash Strike Hotstepper. However, the Cash Collect symbol plays a central role, acting as the Scatter. This symbol can land on reel 2, and when it appears alongside Cash symbols on reels 1 and 3, their values are collected, potentially leading to instant wins.

Cash Strike Hotstepper also features progressive jackpots. If a Cashpot symbol appears on reels 1 or 3 with the Cash Collect symbol on reel 2, players can win one of four progressive prizes: Mini, Minor, Major, or Grand. The value of these jackpots increases as players wager on the slot.

A key feature in Cash Strike Hotstepper is the Hot Stepper mechanic. Whenever the Cash Collect symbol lands on reel 2, it doesn't disappear immediately. Instead, it remains on the grid for up to 2 additional spins, shifting down one position with each subsequent spin. This increases the chances of the Cash Collect symbol encountering Cash symbols and triggering payouts.

Another important bonus feature is the Cash Strike Bonus. This bonus is activated when Cash or Cashpot symbols land on reels 1 and 3, along with the Cash Collect symbol on reel 2. The Cash Collect symbol stays in place throughout the bonus round, which consists of 3 spins. Any Cash symbols or Cashpot symbols that appear on the reels during these spins are collected by the Cash Collect symbol. New symbols appearing on the reels reset the spin counter back to 3, but only Cash Collect symbols are retained throughout the bonus.

The Gold Strike Feature is another interesting mechanic. Throughout the base game, any Cash, Collect, or Cashpot symbols that land on the reels contribute to a meter displayed above the grid. Once the meter is filled, the Gold Strike feature is triggered. This feature has the potential to add enough Cash symbols and/or the Cash Collect symbol to the reels to activate the Cash Strike Bonus.

Finally, Cash Strike Hotstepper offers a Power Play option for players seeking a more volatile and potentially rewarding gameplay experience. When activated, Power Play increases the bet by 5x. However, it also limits the gameplay to only special symbols appearing on the reels. This means that during Power Play, only Cash symbols, Cashpot symbols, and the Cash Collect symbol can land, significantly increasing the odds of triggering bonus features.
