Wicked Wheel Fire Phoenix Slot Machine (Extremely Rare!)
Wicked Wheel Fire Phoenix is an Everi video slot from the Wicked Wheel series, released around the first quarter of 2020 as a companion to Wicked Wheel Panda. It is an extension of the earlier Smokin’ Hot Stuff Wicked Wheel, with the same wheel and progressive-pick structure, but with a fire-phoenix theme and a higher bet range. Everi lists it on the Empire Flex cabinet.

Cabinet Empire Flex
Wins pay left to right on adjacent reels. Phoenix symbols land only on reels 2, 3, and 4. They substitute for all symbols except the Wicked Wheel scatter and reveal a 2×, 3×, or 4× multiplier. If more than one Phoenix is in the same win, those multipliers multiply together, up to 64×. Higher bets raise the chance of progressive awards in both bonuses.
Features
- Progressive Pick. On a spin that does not trigger the wheel, one or more Phoenix symbols can feed an accumulator above the reels and randomly start this bonus. The player picks from 21 coins until three matching progressive symbols appear. Finding a Phoenix removes the lowest remaining tier (Mini, then Minor, then Major). Three Phoenix symbols are in the set. Typical tiers shown in play and rules are Mini, Minor, Major, Mega, Ultra, and Grand; exact reset amounts are set by the casino and are not published as a single fixed table.
Wicked Wheel. Three Wicked Wheel scatters on reels 3, 4, and 5 spin the wheel once. Slices pay 5× to 375× total bet, plus three progressive slices whose levels are revealed at the start of the bonus. The phoenix then flies over the wheel and can apply up to 12 multipliers of 2×, 3×, 5×, or 10× to the credit slices (the 10× cannot land on the 375× slice). It can also nudge the wheel to a higher award.
