Fortune 88

Theme

Come to think of oriental culture, it’s the topic that never gets old, and that’s why people have been using it as an inspiration in books, movies, art etc. The same goes for slot creators Mobilots. They have decided to try the luck and give us something that is both about Asia and luck. You must admit that the task is rather challenging, as there are so many releases with such thematic.

The first thing you see when you initiate this one is a giant grid with huge icons. To intensify the impression, there’s a dynamic and victorious tune that accompanies the reel spinning. Everything looks so actionable, at least if it is to judge the “book” by its covers. It makes you wonder…

…is it just a trick to mask something? Or perhaps we are about to see something even better than this?

If you like creations dealing with fortune, stay with us to see what this one is about.

Betting Options and Functions

The 3x5 grid offers 30 selectable winning lines.

You can choose between 0.50, 1.00, 2.00 or 5.00 to bet on.

You can turn “Fast Mode” on, and there’s also “Autoplay” where you can set up to 100 rounds.

Features Explained

In this Mobilots title with Asian thematic, symbols are likewise, naturally. You can find a lion and dragon, both golden, as well as Chinese characters which mean “make money”. They are of higher value. The others are A, J, Q, K and two eights of different color are the ones that pay less.

As for the additional ones, there’s Wild (fireworks) which can substitute all except for Scatter. This one brings extra spins, and it’s the icon with a red dice. It takes three or more of them to score additional rounds. There’s also a Bonus game (red lantern) and when three or more of them hit the reels, they bring some instant awards.

This look like quite a decent pack of features for a release dealing with fortune. The only question is…

…will they be the lucky ones for you?

Our Take

Speaking of judging the book by its covers, seems that things aren’t so balanced here. Even though things look more than impressive in the very beginning, that’s just it. There’s actually nothing that justifies all the greatness you come across when you get on with this one.

Everything here is actually quite average. What we are trying to say is that all the aspects are okay, but overall, there’s nothing that makes this one particularly stand out from the crowd.

As we said, it’s a commonly used thematic and therefore it’s rather difficult to create something that will look different and memorable. They could have used the given potential a bit better. But, again, it’s worth checking out, at least for several rounds.
