Firestorm Ignites at Emperors Palace
Firestorm line debuts in Africa at The Palace of Dreams
Aruze’s popular Firestorm series video slot has launched at Peermont’s Emperors Palace, making it a first for the African continent. This new slot series on Aruze’s oversized Muso-55 cabinet features unique free-game and hold-and-spin sequences, all on two inaugural base games, Firestorm Lion and Firestorm Bull.
‘One of the big focuses of this year to bring cutting-edge gaming products to our guests,’ says Peermont Gaming Executive Billy Gray. ‘We’ve launch over one hundred new slots products across our resorts this year, and with Firestorm we can offer something no one else on the continent has.’
The Firestorm base game is a popular 5-reel, 50-line video slot combination with state of the art graphics and sound. Player can choose from the Lion or Bull versions which heavily showcase their namesakes and offer a rich journey of crisp graphics as you can trigger a unique variation of scatters, features and jackpots. During the primary game, a ‘WIN’ symbol can morph into one of 15 unique symbols and when coupled with other on one spin, change to the same symbol for potential big wins.
Bonus hunters can expect 2 main bonus features. The first is when a scatter symbol on three or more consecutive reels trigger the free game feature. A number then appears on each of the triggering symbols which add up to the number of free spins, and can go as high as 50. The second is the Rising Fire bonus, when 6 or more gold or purple fireball symbols trigger the sequence granting free spins until the entire reel is covered with fireball symbols.
‘With the constant evolution of slots technology, it’s not only about providing opportunities to win,’ continues Gray. ‘Emperors Palace is about offering entertainment and with our mission to keep at the forefront of the gaming industry, we aim to provide an immersive and unique playing experience but also to ensure that each game is fair, enjoyable, and offers a high level of customer protection.’
The Firestorm range is provided in partnership with Aruze Gaming, renowned for their innovative slot machines, which feature engaging themes, advanced graphics, and unique gameplay mechanics, often incorporating interactive elements and bonus features. , Firestorm Lion and Firestorm Bull is available on the main casino floor at Emperors Palace from 1 August.

Reviews
First, look down when you walk in: the interior walkways are paved with authentic Smart Stone Huguenot Cobbles, engineered specifically to replicate the tactile feeling of walking on real, ancient Roman highways. It is an incredible piece of immersive design that has stood the test of time since its inception.
Second, as someone sensitive to travel fatigue, the engineering here is spectacular. Despite being right next to major runways, the structural acoustics completely eliminate aviation noise. Furthermore, if you explore the convention wing, the rooms are named chronologically after Roman Emperors (Claudius, Augustus, Tiberius), featuring a highly advanced smart-lighting system that subtly shifts tone to help international travelers fight jet lag.
The multi-tiered security checks at the gates provide immense peace of mind, making it a safe, self-contained empire. From the manicured garden paths to the world-class service, it is a flawless, deeply thought-out destination. Don't just stop by for a quick game—take a moment to appreciate the sheer craftsmanship of the Palace of Dreams!
Hidden Details Most Guests Don't Know The Secret History of the Floors:
When the resort opened in September 2000, it was named Caesars Gauteng. The internal casino paths use custom Huguenot Cobble and Shepstone Pavers designed by SmartStone to precisely mimic the durability and texture of ancient Roman stone highways.
The "Imperial Court" Conference Subtext:
The major conference rooms in the South Wing are purposefully named after successive Roman emperors—Claudius, Augustus, Tiberius, Florian, and Romanus. They feature a hidden central smart-lighting grid that automatically shifts color warmth to match the biological clock of travelers suffering from jet lag.
The Multilayered Security Ring: Casual visitors often miss how tightly the security net is woven. Because of its position right next to O.R. Tambo International Airport, the property utilizes an advanced, continuous perimeter sweep and bag-screening protocol that keeps it significantly safer than standard commercial venues.
The Sound-Insulated Aviation Oasis: Despite being directly in the flight path of Africa's busiest airport, the structural glass and architectural roofing are uniquely engineered to absorb low-frequency jet engine vibrations, meaning you can sit in the gardens or sleep in the hotels in absolute peace
