3 Hot Chillies collects coloured pepper symbols into three progress meters above a five-by-three grid. The triggered meter determines the bonus enhancement: Ultra adds multipliers, Extra Spins increases the re-spin allowance, and Double Reels opens a second field with duplicated bonus symbols. All three may combine. The original title should not be assigned the later 3 Super Hot Chillies release's Super Wheel feature.
