Game Overview
The last release from Light & Wonder (Wild Outlaws) was an excellent online slot with innovative features and a massive jackpot, so I’ve got high hopes for the subject of today’s review – Flaming Tomatoes Cash Shot! I guess this is one for the vegans out there, as the backdrop and reels of this 20-payline machine are bursting with brightly coloured fruit and veg! The RTP during regular play is 95.92%, increasing slightly to 95.96% if the bonus buy facility is used, whilst the maximum jackpot looks to be 5,000x the total stake.
The fundamental mechanic of Flaming Tomatoes is its Tomato Re-spins feature, activated every time three or more tomato symbols land on the reels. When this occurs, the game awards a series of free re-spins, giving you the best possible chance to claim a prize from the blackboard displayed to the left of the reels. The re-spin feature is also used during the main free spin bonus round, in conjunction with a symbol upgrade feature, which can frequently result in hitting a full screen of matching symbols! Finally, a bonus buy facility is available at the cost of 50x the normal price per spin for those who don’t want to wait for the feature to occur naturally.

Flaming Tomatoes Cash Shot Slot Theme, Stakes, Pays & Symbols
I can’t think of too many other online slots that feature a vegetable theme similar to this one – there’s Wild Yield, I guess, but I don’t think the graphics are the most important aspect of Flaming Tomatoes Cash Shot! Instead, I believe the scatter-pay element seems to be the most important thing about this game, similar to Kalamba’s 9 Blazing Cashpots Megaways. This release has you collecting tomatoes rather than gold coins, but the idea is the same: the more of these special scatters you can accumulate, the bigger the prize you will win.
The highest-paying symbol on the paytable is a new potato (that’s a sentence I never thought I’d be writing!) with a payout of 20x the total bet for a complete payline of five of a kind. Next, the cauliflower is worth 15x for all five symbols, followed by the broccoli at 12.5x the sweetcorn at 10x, and finally, a carrot which pays 7.5x for a complete payline. As for the low pays, five aces have the highest payout at 5x, whilst the lowly jacks and tens only offer 2x the bet for all five symbols.
The betting range starts at €0.20 and maxes out at €40.00 per spin, but those with larger bankrolls may be frustrated by the low number of wagers available towards the higher end of the range.
Base Game & Modifiers
After opening Flaming Tomatoes, you will be confronted with a five reel, three row playfield with 20 fixed paylines. There are two ways to win in this game – you can match up three or more symbols starting from the left on any of those 20 paylines, or you can hit three or more scatter tomato symbols anywhere on the reel set.
Wild Symbols
Circular wild symbols appear on reels two, three, four, and five and will substitute for all symbols except for the tomato and bonus scatters.
Tomato Respins
Whenever three or more tomato scatter symbols land on the reels, the tomato re-spin feature will be activated. When this occurs, the game will award a free re-spin which is an opportunity to land additional tomato symbols. The re-spin feature will repeat until no tomato symbols land during a spin, at which point you will be paid the corresponding prize from the secondary paytable displayed on the left of the reels. Filling the entire screen with 15 tomato scatters will instantly award the maximum jackpot of 5,000x the current bet
Flaming Tomatoes Cash Shot Slot Bonus Features
Free spin scatter symbols (yes, that’s what I’m calling them… ahem) appear on reels two, three, and four only, and all three of these need to land simultaneously to trigger a set of five free spins.
Free Spins
Five free spins may not sound like a lot, but the headline number is quite deceiving in this case! In this mode, any spin that results in a win will cause all winning symbols to be upgraded to the highest-paying winning symbol. You need to hit at least two winning paylines to benefit from this, but – as if by magic – the game always seems to give you this!
Every winning free spin will activate a further re-spin feature, similar to the Tomato Respins described in the previous section. If another winning symbol happens to land during the re-spin, the process will repeat indefinitely for the chance to hit a full screen of matching symbols.
Bonus Buy
If permitted within your country or jurisdiction, you may purchase a set of five free spins at 50x the normal price per spin. The low price probably reflects that you only receive five spins, but I still feel that this is a very fair rate for an incredibly generous bonus round.
Flaming Tomatoes Cash Shot Slot Review Final Thoughts
I’d love to know the odds of hitting a screen full of the tomato scatter symbols in this game – something tells me they aren’t very high! Despite this, I had such good results from the free spins feature that I still really enjoyed my time testing the game… despite the mundane graphics and theme!
