On January 3, 2019 the Swedish software NetEnt offered us its latest creation released on the market Turn Your Fortune™, a free slot under the French art nouveau style that inspired all the graphics. The three highlights of this mobile video slot are the Fortune wins, the guaranteed wins and the player engagement. It has 5 reels, 4 rows and 40 fixed lines that can be played from 1 to 10 bet levels, 20 coins per level and coin values ranging from €0.01 to €1.
It is the story of a group of 5 friends who had a special adoration for magic, they get together on weekends and spend as much time as possible together. They have known each other since kindergarten and nothing can separate them. They love to visit old castles, do research and above all meet people like them, who have the same passion. Next week there is a congress with the great specialist Maud Florian.
They've been preparing the congress for weeks, they've gathered all the information they can about her and her partner Marc Fondant, it seems that they are unbeatable in transformations! They even prepared an exhaustive questionnaire, meeting every day to complete it and finalise all the details.
The day in question has finally arrived, the five of them are at the rendezvous like clockwork, in fact no one has been able to sleep! They have to go to the next town to spend the day and meet all these people who have the same interest as them and especially to see the demonstrations of Maud and Marc.
When they arrive at the gates of the convention and stand in awe, inside there is a sort of golden dungeon as seen in the Turn Your Fortune™ free slot machine, with a lock at the bottom. This promises to be impressive! The five friends look at each other with a truly overwhelming excitement! They can't wait for the magicians to arrive, the atmosphere is guaranteed!
The show begins, Maud and Marc appear in a pile of smoke as is normal in such a place. The friends are amazed! It was going to be great! After having made a speech and explained a bit about their techniques, without revealing that she is a real fairy, time does not pass by her, it is really strange... But neither her companion could imagine who she really is.
Everyone wants to talk with Maud and Marc, you have to have a little patience to be able to approach them! They had all received a ticket with a random number at the entrance to the congress for the draw of the people who would be able to help Maud with the spells she had promised on her arrival, the suspense is at its height!
Incredibly, the five friends have been chosen! Now they have to go on the stage and one by one they will be transformed into animals! Rays come out of her fingers and... She transforms the five friends into a lion, an owl, a turtle, a carp and a snail, as seen in the Turn Your Fortune™ medium symbols game of chance. She then has them play with a wheel of fortune to get them higher and higher in the dungeon.
People can't believe their eyes, plus she just turned her companion into a peacock too which can be seen as a scatter in the NetEnt gamble, and she changes into a butterfly fairy which also appears in the game as a wild. People are hypnotized by such magic and perfection! But what is going on? The alarm clock is ringing! It's time to get up... But then... Was it just a dream?
Features and game mechanics of Turn Your Fortune™:
Wild symbols represented by a golden butterfly fairy with beautiful pink wings, can appear anywhere on the reels in the main game and in the free spins and substitutes for all symbols except scatter symbols, key symbols, and +10 symbols. In the free spins the wild symbols are not collected to fill the Fortune Wins gauge, and they will be paid out by the highest winning combination.
The Fortune Wins feature is an outstanding feature that will make you climb the prize dungeon, filling the meter with collected symbols. If the key symbol lands on the reels during the Fortune extra spins or free spins, the Fortune wins higher levels.
All Fortune wins are increased, including the stage win. There are 5 payout levels, each level consisting of 5 stages, so you have to climb higher and higher. Guaranteed winnings can be obtained when you land on the Re-spins and free spins, you are guaranteed to bet x5 on Re-spins and x10 on free spins, which corresponds to the first wealth ladder.
If the key symbols land on the reels the wins will only increase, plus they're not ridiculous at all, just like the free spins which start with a wheel of fortune that shows the number of free spins you get and the symbol you have to collect, then back to the Cryptex. A Fortune Wins feature win is equal to the shown value of the stage won multiplied by the currency bet.
The Fortune Re-spin feature with Fortune Wins is triggered if two scatter symbols appear on reels 1, 3 or 5 in combination with a win line in the main game. If 3 scatter symbols appear on reels 1, 3 and 5 activate the Fortune Re-Spins and also the free spins, these will be played first. They will pay out on the same bet level that triggered them.
In the free spins, all collection symbols that land on the reels are collected to fill the Fortune Wins gauge. The special +10 Collector symbol can land anywhere on reel 2 and fills the 10 gauge. Each time the gauge is filled with 20 spaces, the player changes levels in the Fortune Wins. During the free spins, each scatter symbol that lands on reels 1, 3 or 5 rewards with 1 additional Free Spin.
