Burgers

Theme & presentation

Big Time Gaming has spent years dressing up its maths in whatever costume happens to be lying around, and this time it’s a chrome-and-neon 1950s American diner. Burgers, released December 2024, is essentially the spiritual sequel to their old Donuts title, only greasier and considerably meaner. The art is bright, the burger stack builds up in a genuinely appetising way, and the soundtrack does that rockabilly diner-jukebox thing without becoming unbearable across a long session. It’s charming enough. It’s also, let’s be honest, wallpaper over a familiar engine — you’re here for the mechanic, not the milkshakes.

How it plays

You’re on a 4x4 main grid delivering 256 ways to win, with a fifth row at the bottom acting as a dedicated Bonus Reel. That bottom strip is the whole gimmick. Multiplier symbols land down there and dump their values onto the burger symbols or wilds sitting directly above them — Onion at x2 or x3, Lettuce at x4 or x5, Tomato at x8 or x10. It’s a clean, readable way to inflate a win, and I like that you can see it coming a beat before it resolves. Base game is stingy, as high-vol BTG games always are; most spins are a shrug, and the tension lives entirely in whether that Bonus Reel decides to cooperate.

The feature

The headline is the Free Spins round, triggered by 3 or 4 scatters for 12 or 16 spins. The hook here is the progressive Ice multiplier: the first Ice symbol to land carries x2, the second x3, the third x4, and so on, climbing all session long. That escalation is where the real money lives — pair a well-placed Ice with a stack of Tomato multipliers and things get silly fast. There’s also a Win Exchange / Bonus Buy layer — swap a win of 100x or more for 12 guaranteed free spins, or trade a 25x–100x win for a gamble-wheel shot at the round — which I’d treat with the usual suspicion; buy features are a fast way to feed the variance. Worth noting the free spins are the only route to the ceiling.

The numbers, straight

• Max win: 102,840x — verified across BigWinBoard and Fruityslots; achievable only via the progressive Ice multipliers in free spins (the base game caps out around 10,000x)
• RTP: Multiple tiers published — 96.41% / 94.19% / 86.20%. You asked about 94.19%, which is the middle tier; check which one your casino actually deployed, because that spread is enormous
• Volatility: High
• Reels/ways: 4x4 main grid plus a Bonus Reel, 256 ways
• Hit rhythm: Lean and streaky in the base game; the round is where everything happens

Verdict

Burgers is a competent, well-built high-volatility grinder that does one idea — Bonus Reel multipliers feeding a progressive free-spins climb — and does it cleanly. It’s not reinventing anything, and the base game is dry enough that lesser sessions feel like staring at an empty griddle. But the ceiling is real and the feature has genuine escalation, which is more than a lot of 2024 releases can say. The RTP tiers are the thing to watch: 96.41% is standard, 94.19% is playable, 86.20% is daylight robbery, so confirm before you commit.

SlotWhizz rating: 3.7/5. A solid, honest high-vol machine that earns its ceiling — but that 102,840x is a lottery ticket, and every published RTP tier still bakes in a house edge that grinds against you on the average spin.

18+. Demo for fun, not profit. Free-play results don’t reflect real-money outcomes; the house keeps an edge. Play responsibly.
