Slot Review: Year of Fortune

According to the Chinese zodiac, 2009 is the year of the Ox. We are well into this year already, but it’s never a bad time to play a lush and gorgeous online slot with an exotic Asian theme… especially one that can make you a pile of money! Year of Fortune is one of the most playable and entertaining slots we have played in a long time. Featuring lush imagery showing the creatures of the Chinese zodiac depicted in loving detail, Year of Fortune ought to appeal to all of us – especially if we are lucky!

Year of Fortune comes to us from Real Time Gaming, one of the premiere online slot companies out there for excellence and entertainment. Coin values start at one cent and range upwards to five dollars. Max coins is twenty-five, or one coin per payline. You can play this pokey as a penny slot if you so wish, but to do so is to put yourself at a disadvantage by disqualifying yourself for the excellent top jackpot of eight thousand eight hundred eighty-eight coins! (The number eight is considered very lucky in the Chinese culture, in case you did not know.) For the highest per-spin wager of one hundred twenty-five bucks, that’s a potential jackpot of over forty thousand dollars!

The golden ox is the wild symbol for this online slot. It can stand in the place of any other symbol on the reels in a winning combination. It is also the multiplier, boosting the winnings of any combination it completes. There are also scatter and bonus symbols on the beautifully-illustrated reels. You can win eight free spins, in continuation of the theme.
