Checkmate Hot1 is a chess-inspired slot machine played on five reels and 30 lines. The playing field of the slot is located in a room with huge windows, inside which you can see tables with chess.

During the base game, you will benefit from the wild, which can substitute for any standard symbol, as well as doubling your winnings if you participate in its creation.

Also during the main game, two scatters appearing on the playing field will activate a feature called Mystery Respin. After that, the reels with scatters are fixed, and the remaining ones rotate again. This feature will help you get closer to triggering free spins if another scatter lands on the playing field during the respin.

The free spins round can be triggered from the feature described above or when three, four or five scatters land on the playing field on the same spin. Symbols that activate the feature become sticky and turn into the cheapest. Please note that on each spin, the sticky symbols are updated until they reach the most expensive one. If during the spins the scatter appears on the playing field, it also becomes sticky and turns into a symbol that is already fixed on the playing field.

On the last spin, which is called Hot 1, the most interesting will begin. All sticky symbols will turn into wilds with x2 multipliers. And this will definitely contribute to getting worthy prizes.
