Who can forget the American cult band Electric Six and their one hit wonder, “Danger! High Voltage,” which made waves in discos at the start of the new millennium? The obscure hit song inspired Big Time Gaming to create a slot game, launched in May 2017. If you’re unfamiliar with the song’s lyrics, the game’s symbols may seem random. However, after listening to the song with its strange lines like “fire in the Taco Bell,” “fire in the disco,” and “fire in the gates of hell,” it all starts to make sense.
Though it’s an unusual slot, it boasts some interesting features that make it worth checking out. You have 4096 ways to win, more than most games. Plus, it’s not only “high voltage,” it’s also super high volatility. To make it even more unique, the game has six reels and two different wild symbols, one of which can give you a multiplier up to 66 times your stake. It’s truly a game filled with features, and we haven’t even touched on the two free spins bonus games yet.
Before delving into the game’s exciting features, let’s discuss some technical details. The Return to Player (RTP) of Danger High Voltage is slightly lower than average, but not by much. Usually slots have an RTP around 96%, and 95.67% isn’t far off. The house edge is 4.33%. More importantly, this game has high volatility, meaning big wins can be infrequent. Therefore, adjust your bankroll and bet level accordingly to avoid going broke before the big wins come.
Electric Six had some commercial success between 2001 and 2004, with “Danger! High Voltage” as their biggest hit. We applaud Big Time Gaming for taking a risk and making a video slot out of this song. You can enjoy the original hit song while playing the game, which features a classic disco scene backdrop with disco lights. Most of the symbols are based on the song’s weird lyrics and music video.
Danger High Voltage is a video slot with six reels and 4096 paylines. It offers two free spins bonus games: High Voltage Free Spins, which includes a High Voltage stacked Wild and a multiplier that can reach 66x, and The Gates of Hell Free Spins, which includes Sticky Wilds. The game’s main attraction is the two free spins features, but there are also two different full-reel wilds that can land randomly during the base game.
Playing Danger High Voltage is straightforward. You can set the bet level between 20p and £40 per spin, and opt for the autoplay feature. You can play for real money or try a demo version of the game to familiarize yourself with the gameplay.
Despite its high volatility, the game has potential for high payouts. You can win up to 20,000 times your stake, or 102,400 coins. If you play with the maximum stake of £40, you could win a whopping £800,000 on Danger High Voltage. The game is fully optimized for mobile, tablet and desktop, so you can play on the go.
Whether you like or dislike the song, if you enjoy high volatility and large payouts, this game is worth checking out. The massive free spins features alone make it worthwhile. So, let’s ignite the fires of hell and go for the big wins on this taco bell.
