fortune reels theme, stakes, pays & symbols

Fortune Reels online slot is supposedly an oriental themed online slot, but it doesn’t do that theme particularly well in my opinion. The reels are adorned with lucky coins and a whole bundle of golden trinkets that… well, just don’t seem particularly oriental, apart from the highest-paying bowl symbol - I mean, are horseshoes oriental now? The music is okay in a way… it also does not sound very oriental – the scale used is distinctly Western, but it is ambient enough that it won’t start bugging you within the first five minutes. There are literally hundreds of online slots that do the Far-Eastern thing better though, that’s for sure. 

I wondered how the paytable would compare to the eight-reel Jelly Reels™ slot by Wazdan and was surprised to find the highest-paying golden bowl symbol in this Fortune Reels slot game pays just 10x your stake for six-of-a-kind. I expected the top prizes to be a little bit higher given that this game has “just” 46,656 pay ways rather than the more than 16 million found in Jelly Ways, but I guess 46,500 is still a whole lot of pay ways. The next symbol down is the golden horseshoe at 4x your stake for all six, whilst the jewel-adorned elephant returns just 2x for six-of-a-kind and the golden pot containing purple jewels returns a paltry 1.5x your stake. I sure hope you can win on lots of pay ways at once in this game.

Selecting your bet is done in the usual Wazdan manner – a row of potential bets is shown underneath the reels, similar in fashion to Play’N’Go slots, and two arrow symbols allow you to scroll through higher and lower options. The minimum bet is set at €0.20 per spin whilst the maximum is more than high enough at €100.00 per spin.

base game & MODIFIERS

Base gameplay in Fortune Reels online slot takes place on a very large 6x6 playfield, but in most other ways this game works just the same as any other online slot. Once you begin to play, the reason for the slightly lower than normal payouts on the paytable is obvious – the expanding wild symbols appear somewhat frequently and multiply the amount you win from each spin substantially.

fortune reels slot bonus bonus feature

You need to hit six bonus symbols in one go to trigger the bonus round in Fortune Reels. Many other Wazdan titles that feature the “Hold the Jackpot” feature will give you a free re-spin if you hit three or more bonus symbols, to give you an additional shot at collecting the full six required to start the feature. 

That does not happen in Fortune Reels, unfortunately, and I did find it very hard to trigger the feature in this game. For that reason, if you do enjoy playing Fortune Reels online slot I would recommend using the bonus buy facility if it is available in your region.
