Once again, it’s all about fire, masks, and an increasingly frantic drumbeat in a sequel from Gameburger Studios. 12 Masks of Fire Drum Frenzy brings back the flaming Epic Strike ladder but cranks it up a notch with features like Jumbo and Cash Drums, wild-triggered tower bonuses, and an upgraded prize ladder. Read on and you can find out what each type of drum actually does.
The background is a close-to-crazy swirl of tribal patterns in yellow and burnt orange. On the left, the Epic Strike tower stands like a totem, glowing purple with cash values. Beneath it, two glowing drums sit waiting, red and green for Jumbo and Cash drum modes. The reels are filled with sevens and traditional slot symbols, and the soundtrack doesn’t let up. There are no characters exactly, but the masks are what you would consider the star attraction.
The paytable goes for the classic online slots symbols. We’re talking about fiery sevens and fruit-machine icons, with payouts starting from basic cherries to full-on triple sevens. Here’s how it shakes out:
Symbol | Payouts for 3, 4, and 5 of a kind |
Cherries | 0.40x, 1.20x, 2.40x |
BAR | 0.40x, 1.20x, 2.40x |
Golden Bell | 0.80x, 2.40x, 4x |
Dollar Sign | 1.20x, 2.80x, 6x |
Any 7 (Mixed Sevens) | 1.20x, 2.80x, 6x |
Single Flaming 7 | 4x, 10x, 20x |
Double Flaming 7 | 4x, 14x, 30x |
Triple Flaming 7 | 6x, 50x, 100x |
Landing 3 to 12 mask symbols in a single spin triggers the Epic Strike Tower for an instant prize. Prizes range from a modest 1x all the way up to a fiery 4,000x. When Cash Mask symbols land, they carry extra value that stacks on top of the normal prize.
Every time a wild lands on the reels, it gets stored in the diamond pile behind the prize tower. This triggers a random chance of activating the Tower Bonus. If it hits, you’ll either get an Epic Strike cash prize or entry into one of the three Bonus Spins modes. It's unpredictable, but very much worth paying attention to.
This feature has a few moving parts depending on the drum that triggers it. You’ll need Regular Drums on reels 2 and 3, plus a special Drum (Jumbo, Cash, or Frenzy) on reel 4 to activate it. All versions begin with 3 spins and a 5×3 grid, which expands as you collect more drum symbols.
Every time you fill a collection tier, you reset back to 3 spins and add another row to the grid. The further up the ladder you go, the more intense it gets.
The game is played on a standard 5×3 reel grid with 20 fixed paylines. Potential wins pay from left to right starting on reel 1, and you’ll need at least 3 matching symbols to form a win. Special mechanics like the Epic Strike tower and bonus drums operate alongside the base game, meaning the grid can sometimes expand to 5×6 during bonus rounds. So basically, on any spin, you’re juggling regular payouts, symbol collections, and potential tower triggers.
If this one’s caught your attention, here are a few more fiery or just feature-packed options from the same extended family:
It’s a busy slot, but it doesn’t try to hide it. The combination of prize ladders, random tower triggers, and three different bonus drum modes means there’s a lot happening at once. And yet, it kind of works. The Drum Frenzy round, in particular, adds a nice bit of anticipation. There’s not much innovation in the base symbols or look, but it’s a solid follow-up in an online casino franchise that knows exactly what it wants to be.
