Site Review

Bored of Nektan yet? The answer to that is probably yes, to be fair, because most of us are by this point.

A new player to the online casino world may stumble upon a Nektan site and be genuinely impressed, because the first one you see can have that effect.

The problem is, however, that the first one you see could be any of the smorgasbord of online casino sites that Nektan have released, because they are essentially all exactly the same, which is a real problem.

Scorching Slots is one of the newest additions to the Nektan portfolio and, as we have all learnt to expect from this network by this point, it’s brining absolutely nothing new to the table.

You can’t help but wonder whether there is any hope at this point of Nektan actually producing an individual site, putting any level of effort into creating something different.

However, it appears that quantity will always be the order of the day with Nektan, so instead of releasing one or two excellent sites every year, they release a myriad of disappointing ones.

It is only fair to allow the benefit of the doubt though, no matter how small that doubt may be, so let’s take a closer look at Scorching Slots and see if there’s something fresh or new to be found.

Design and theme

This slot is themed around dragons, at least that’s what we assume its based around, it’s hard to know.

Like every other Nektan site, all you get to suggest the theme here is a logo and a background, the logo is a dragon’s eye, and maintaining the level that Nektan have become known for, not a particularly good one. The background is a sketched stony landscape, which is, assumedly, supposed to be the setting for a dragon’s lair, but again, it’s hard to know for sure.

Past that, all you get here is everything you already know if you’ve ever visited a Nektan site before, even briefly (which is the suggested amount of time to spend at a Nektan site).

The game categories are the same and in the same place, and the layout is identical, even down to the thumbnails on the homepage being in the same order as they are at Scorching Slots’ sister sites.

It is difficult to say anything original about a Nektan site at this point, and that isn’t our fault, when there’s hundreds of identical sites, ultimately you run out of words to use about them.

Games

Nektan have always been known for supplying a decent amount of games at their sites, it’s always been the only redeeming feature that the operator has.

Scorching Slots is no different, with an impressive collection of games coming from the likes of 1X2 Network, Aristocrat Gaming, Big Time Gaming, Blueprint Gaming, Core Gaming, ELK Studios, Evolution, Extreme Live Gaming, Felt, Gamevy, IGT, Microgaming, Nektan, NetEnt, NextGen Gaming, Realistic Games, SG Digital, SG Gaming, and Williams Interactive.

Although the name of this site may suggest otherwise, it isn’t all about slots here, and players will also find a strong collection of table and card games, including a fair few live casino titles thrown in for good measure.

However, slots are definitely the focus, and you will find an abundance, new and old, as well as several progressive jackpot titles for those times when you’re feeling particularly lucky.

However, as is always the case, it isn’t enough. There are multiple sites that offer a better games selection than the one available here, and almost without exception, those casinos try harder to actually create something interesting, making them all better options than Scorching Slots.
