HELLISH 7 HITS FROM HÖLLE
Reading Time: < 1 minute

 

“Hellish 7 Hold & Win”, (Höllische 7 Hold & Win in German) is now live, a spicy Classic Series slot from the Berlin-based developer Hölle Games.

This is a new summer edition in the Hellish Seven franchise, known for its high volatility, hellishly good payouts, and hard rock riffs. The new entry features Hold & Win, where, if players can fill the reels with (any) cash symbol, they will win the impressive 7777x main prize! Mini, Major and Mega jackpot payouts can be scooped up along the way too, awarding more instant cash wins, and ladder & card gamble mini-games also allow potential bonus winnings.

Players can directly buy entry into the feature if they want to skip the base game, or they can opt to use Feuer Stake which is a Stake Boost feature that increases the chances of hitting the Hold & Win for only a 1.5x stake multiplier spin cost.

The game is now available for MGA with other territories following soon. Hölle Games will release another flamin’ good slot later this month with Dragon’s Diamonds, a 5×6 scatter cascade featuring the titular dragon and huge multiplier win potential.
