Slot Overview

Shining Crown Cash Heat is an EGT release from March 2025 that’s a continuation of their Shining Crown series. The game’s designed around a 5×3 layout with ten fixed paylines, and you can look forward to an expanding Crown Wild, a dual scatter system, a Hold & Win-style Bonus Cash Free Spins feature, a four-tier non-progressive Cash Heat jackpot, and the Clover Chance progressive jackpots. There’s a huge amount going on, so how did it stand up during our testing? Let’s find out.

Gameplay & Bonus Features

The game plays on a five-reel, three-row layout with 10 fixed paylines, and, depending on the operator’s configuration, the RTP ranges from 96.15% to 96.50%. You can bet between €0.10 and €1,000, so there are stake options for players on all budgets, too.

The Crown Wild appears on reels 2, 3, and 4, expanding to cover its full reel when it contributes to a win, and you’ll also notice the Dollar Sign scatter, which pays anywhere on the reels: 5x, 10x, or 100x for three, four, and five, respectively. The Star Scatter lands on the 1st, 3rd, and 5th reels only and awards 20x when all three land at once.

Now, the game’s main mechanic is the Bonus Cash Free Spins, which, despite the name, is actually a Hold & Win feature. It’s triggered by landing 5+ bonus symbols in the base game, and each of these carries a cash prize worth between 1x and 25x. They can also display one of the three non-progressive Cash Heat jackpots.

The feature begins with three respins that reset each time a new bonus symbol lands, continuing until the counter runs out or the grid fills. On top of this, the Clover Chance progressive jackpot can also trigger randomly on any spin, taking you into a 15-pearl picking game.

Theme & Design

Shining Crown is one of EGT’s most recognisable brands, and Cash Heat stays loyal to the previous instalments in the series. The reels are set on top of a burning red and orange background. The game symbols include cherries, watermelons, plums, oranges, bells, and crowns.

Above the reels, you’ll see the game’s 4 chatbots, and at the bottom of the screen, you have the quick bet options with additional stakes. Click the coin icon on the right side of the screen.

Pros

  • Two different jackpot mechanics at once
  • Huge variety of betting options
  • Expanding Wilds during the base game

Cons

  • May be a bit “busy” for some players
  • Multiple RTP versions of the game are available
  • There are no Free Spins in the game (despite the bonus’ name)

Final Thoughts

Shining Crown Cash Heat takes one of EGT’s most popular series, and packs it with tons of bonuses and features - including two different jackpot systems. It may be a bit much for some players, but for us, it’s a refreshing change from the simple, classic-inspired format found in most EGT titles.

Yes, the Hold & Win mechanic is a bit overdone these days, but for a provider that doesn’t often include bonus rounds at all in their games, it’s a welcomed addition, and we like the fact that there are Expanding Wilds in the base game, too, as this ensures you’re not solely reliant on triggering the bonus round for some win potential.

Yes, the graphics won’t appeal to everyone, but if you’re a fan of EGT’s style of games and if you’re looking for something with a bit more action than many of their titles, Shining Crown Cash Heat is definitely one worth checking out!
