Turn Your Fortune Slot

Turn your fortune is a game by Netent game provider that was launched sometime last year. I was quite intrigued by the concept of it as well as the theme and over the past couple of months I have grown to enjoy it quite a bit.

The slot is inspired by the fortune teller theme which is not something unique or unseen but as it usually goes with Netent, the design is simple yet eye catching. The main symbols are jewels and letter symbols as well as Phoenix as scatter symbols. From technical aspects it's a 5 reel slot with minimum bets of 0.20€.

What I really enjoy about this game is the fact that there's a base game feature as well as bonus feature and the base game feature has a potential to pay decent, so it's not another pick type of bonus. For two scatter symbols, if there's a winning combination, the wheel will turn and the symbol that won on the spin will be chosen as the collect symbol. You'll get a free spin and if more of the collect symbols will land, another respin will be given. A great thing is that for every 5 symbols collected the fortune will turn for a bigger win and if a key drops, the fortune will be increased. I haven't had any major wins from this feature but it gives occasional, decent 50x bet wins which is great when low rolling.

What really fascinated me is the free spins round triggered by scatter symbols on reels 1,3 and 5. I think that the most thrilling part is that when the bonus is triggered, the fortune will spin and you can get different amount of free spins with different collect symbols, as well as possible higher fortunes with the keys. I have had many average/bad bonuses with higher value collect symbols but in one of my recent sessions I managed to grow the fortune to the 4th level and ended up with a 150x bet win. In my experience it's best to get a low value collect symbol as they seem to come up more frequently, which is good, taking into consideration the fact that in the free spins, to level up for higher fortune, you need to collect 20 symbols.

All in all, I really enjoy this slot, it is great for low rolling sessions with frequent, small wins. The base game feature is cool and comes up often and the free spins have good potential. Although I haven't had a win over 200x bet as of yet, I think it has good winning potential.

Turn Your Fortune is powered by Net Entertainment and is a 5-reel, 4 row, 40 pay line slot that can be played across all devices from mobile to desktop. This slot is a bit different from the regular you get out there as it has fortune win mechanism that takes place during the base game and free spins.

Based on French art, this slot offers 2 bonus features. A re-spin feature that takes place during the base game for landing 2 scatters on reels 1,3 or 5 with a winning combination with any symbol. If you land all 3 scatters you trigger the free spins, however if you have a winning combination with 3 scatter symbols you trigger the re-spins feature as well as the free spins feature. Free spins would be played first then the re-spin feature.

Symbols on the reels include your standard card deck symbols as well as the royals which are animals such as snails, koi carp, turtles, owls and lions. The lion is the highest paying symbol which pays x10 your bet and the wild does not have a value but can be active on the reels. Symbols on the reels land in form of stacks.

The Fortune Wins mechanism allows you to collect symbols to climb up the coin win ladder. This is active in both the fortune re-spins feature and free spins feature. Beginning at the lowest step, your aim is to fill the meter by 5 or 20 spaces to move up 1 step. With each step you increase the multiplier times your total bet gets increased. You can win up to a maximum of x2000 your stake during free spins.

During free spins, each scatter will give you 1 extra free spin. All collectable symbols are collected to fill the fortune wins meter. There’s also a special +10 collectable symbol which really helps and increase the meter quickly. The key instantly moves you a step up.

I like this game and can be good for wagering at times. The empty spins can kill me and those teases with the scatters are the worst. I was fortunate to hit x1000 in this slot but at minimum bet. I would recommend you have at least a good x100 your total bet before starting to spin this slot. A job well done by Netent.

Turn Your Fortune, one of the latest releases from NetEnt, is a 40 paylines game but with a $0.20 starting bet per spin, which to me is good - if at $0.40 bet per spin, I would certainly play this game one time and never come back! The main aim in this game is to get the Fortune Wins and Fortune Respins features as often as possible, especially during the free spins, because this is where the big wins can occur.

No doubt the maximum possible win is indicated as 2000x the bet amount at Level 5, the top most level, but getting any decent small win is not an easy task either! That's because the win values in the paytable are simply extremely low! The Wild and the Scatter symbols are non-paying, the Wild symbol doesn't double wins with it, so the only win multipliers in the game lies within that Fortune Tier on the left hand side of the play screen. Not only that, the top paying symbol, the Red Lion, pays a blardy low 10x the total bet for getting all 5 of them! None of these is to my liking at all!

Getting 2 Scatter symbols would trigger a Fortune Respin, but only if it forms part of another winning combination! This isn't so good at all, because most of the time, you'd be getting 2 Scatters without activating the Fortune Respin at all! I find this disappointing - no payout for getting the 2 Scatters, yet no Respin feature either. Moreover, get 3 Scatters and you'd still get no payout - only a Free Spins game! Sheesh!

The number of free spins is determined by a spin on the Fortune Wheel, which also determines the Collection Symbol, plus a damn-hard-to-get Butterfly symbol in the innermost circle of the wheel, which would award 1 Level Up on the Fortune Tier. Free Spins are from 8 to 13 only, but each appearing Scatter during the free spins would add +1 free spin, if that's any help at all!

To cut the story short, all the payouts in the base game are very low but rather frequent, the Fortune Respin feature is hard to get, whilst the Medium symbols tend to pay lower than the Low symbols, as expected, and the Fortune Win feature in the base game is not interesting at all, hardly ever producing any decent wins! Only the Free Spins game can create excitement and good wins, if lucky of course, otherwise, the payouts would still be damn low!

Typically of most new games, Turn Your Fortune played well for up to the first 1000 spins, then, it went to sleep, as in my play session! Numerous empty spins followed, with ridiculously low wins after the many empty spins, so my all my balance got drained away in quick time! Sheesh! Would I play this game again? No thank you!
