About this Slot
Short Fuse from Blackjaw Gaming is a humor-themed slot with 6 reels, 5 rows and 25 paylines, offering an RTP of 96%, high volatility and a maximum win of 50,000x.
The Fuse Bomb wild substitutes for all symbols except scatter and The Spark. When a Fuse Bomb detonates, it multiplies the winning line by its current value. Multiple Fuse Bombs on the same line add their values together before applying the multiplier.
Bomb Chase triggers when a Fuse Bomb lands without detonating. The bomb locks in place while all other positions respin for free. Bomb Chase continues until no live bombs remain on the board, three scatter symbols land, or the maximum win is reached.
The Spark restores all live bombs to their starting value but does not trigger wins or extend the fuse length.
The bonus round awards 10 free spins with no retrigger option. During the bonus, up to six Fuse Bombs may remain active simultaneously, and a maximum of two new bombs can land per spin. All live bombs are removed when the bonus ends.
Last Spark triggers from landing four, five, or six scatter symbols. In Round 1, three collection drops appear while Heavy Bombs and blanks fill the board. During Round 2, locked Heavy Bombs act as wild symbols, and every win multiplies by the total value of all locked bombs.
The Feature Menu allows direct purchase of both the Bonus round and the Last Spark round, which follow the same rules as naturally triggered versions.
