I Need a Hero, from High 5 Games, is a 5 reel slot with 1,024 ways to win. Celebrate the real heroes with this action-packed slot that offers wilds, scatters, free spins and the bonus Select a Hero feature, with a top prize of 500 credits. With a heroic RTP of 96.5% and plenty of high octane action, I Need a Hero is a great way to celebrate our emergency services. When you need a real hero, there’s no point waiting for a guy in a cape and tights. 

Before you press the spin button and start playing I Need a Hero, or any other slot, you’ll need to select your stake. You’ll play at a fixed 40 credits per spin, but you can use multipliers to select a coin size giving you a staking range from 0.80 with a 2x multiplier to 400.00 with a 1,000x multiplier bet.

These real-life heroes strike various poses across the 5x4 game matrix, which has a comic book vibe about it. The structure means this action-packed slot boasts 1,024 ways to win, plus there is an exciting four-option Bonus Select feature that can help you reel in wins fit for a hero.

All the action in this five-reel, four-row online slot takes place against a torn comic book. Its barcode and eye-catching cover are visible in the background, while a cityscape represents the backdrop for the 5x3 game matrix.

These symbols include an Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 9, and the number 5 – in reference to High 5 Games. In terms of premium symbols, you’ll see all four heroes. A police officer aims his 9mm and a firefighter is working up a sweat trying to bring a fire under control. A paramedic rushes to the scene of an emergency, while an elite soldier clutches a high-powered rifle in anticipation of a shootout. 

The way to unlock all the potential of I Need a Hero is to unleash the free spins and pick a bonus feature. Landing all 5 Red Lights on consecutive reels alerts the emergency services to deliver some great bonus action. You’ll have the choice of 4 different bonus features which represent red hot volatility to low variance gameplay.

Opt for the Police Department bonus and you’ll be awarded 4 free games. A police shield will be added to the reels and 3, 4 or 5 on the reels deliver a 80, 120 or 240 cash prize.

The Fire Badge bonus offers 6 free games plus a 60, 80 or 120 cash prize for landing 3, 4 or 5 bonus symbols.

Join the paramedics to play 8 free spins with a 40, 60 or 80 credit spot prize. In the army, you’ll earn the lowest extra credits of 20, 40 or 60, but you’ll have 10 free spins in which to earn extra prizes.

The bonus rounds are quite unusual in offering a cash prize rather than free spins and multipliers, but you can still walk away with a very decent payout, thanks to the variable potential of the different bonuses.

The most powerful symbol in this action-packed slot is the wild symbol, which is represented by ‘I Need a Hero’ text written in a speech balloon. It can appear on the second, third, and fourth reels of the I Need a Hero slots game to substitute for all symbols except scatters. 

As you might have guessed, scatters are represented by a siren. While sirens are usually used by emergency services to signal that someone is in danger, a droning siren and flashing red light on five consecutive reels initiates the Bonus Select feature.  

You will be transported to a new screen, where you’ll get to select one of four options. Each option varies in variance, so the one you choose will ultimately depend on how brave you are feeling.
