Crown of Fire slot review
Crown of Fire is a classic-style fruit slot from Pragmatic Play, released in September 2022 on five reels, three rows and 10 paylines. Its main mechanic is a crown wild that lands only on the middle three reels and expands to fill the whole reel, while two scatter symbols pay instantly from any position. Wins can reach 1,000x stake.

How Crown of Fire plays
There is no free spins round or bonus game, so every spin is settled on the reels in front of you. Lines pay from the leftmost reel for three or more matching symbols on adjacent reels, and the red 7s are the exception, paying from just two.
- Lower-paying fruits: plums, lemons, oranges and cherries.
- Higher-paying symbols: bells, watermelons, grapes and red 7s.
- Crown wild: appears on reels 2, 3 and 4 only and stands in for the fruit, bell and 7 symbols, but not for the scatters.
The expanding crown and the two scatters
When a crown lands, it grows to cover all three positions on its reel before the lines are counted. Because a wild reel sits on every one of the 10 lines at once, one or more crowns can complete several wins on the same spin.
The scatters pay on their own, wherever they land, with no line needed:
- Flaming diamond: can land on any reel; three pay 3x stake, four pay 25x and five pay 100x.
- Dollar sign: lands only on reels 1, 3 and 5, and three of them pay 20x stake.
Neither scatter opens a feature. They are simply extra prizes added on top of any line wins.
