Slot Review: Reel of Fortune

We loved Reel Of Fortune, the online slot machine title that apes a popular American game show! While there is a bonafide, licensed Wheel of Fortune slot machine title –one of the most-popular terminal titles around, we’ll add!- the knockoffs abound in cyberspace. Just recently, we reviewed Wheel of Cash. Reel Of Fortune is another excellent addition to the collection, with bright, lively graphics spotlighting the kind of fabulous prizes that you might hope to win on the TV show hosted by Pat Sajak and the lovely Vanna White! In fact, the lantern-jawed man with a microphone and blonde, beaming lady above the title card bear more than a passing resemblance to the famous pair!

Reel Of Fortune is a five-reel, twenty-payline online slot machine title by Rival. Coin values range from one cent to ten cents, with max coins of two hundred. The good news is that a maxed out bet is only going to set you back twenty bucks per spin (ten coins per payline). The bad news is that the wager-to-jackpot ratio is not so hot. We don’t think a fifteen hundred coin jackpot (max one hundred fifty dollars) is worth the bet, because, unless you hit big n just a few spins, you are almost sure to lose more than you win.

It’s a shame, too, because Reel Of Fortune is a very sleep slot game. A new washer and dryer, a bag of golf clubs, and a hand mixer are just some of the stupendous prizes (icons) tempting you, along with wild and scatter symbols and free spins! We also liked the bonus game, in which you choose from three curtains to win the prize behind it… unless you select the donkey, in which case the fun is over!
