Fortune Fish Introduction
Bask in the resplendent glory of China’s history and culture in Fortune Fish, a visually stunning and bold video pokie by the developers at Casino Technology. Featuring gold coins, beautiful china heirlooms and much more on display, this pokie is sure to be a treat for the eyes as well as for your bank balance.
Fortune Fish is rated medium-difficulty by its creators, but with generous payouts and a helpful scatter symbol, you’ll have no problem in landing winning combinations and having a great time while you’re at it!
Look and Feel
Fortune Fish is a pokie fit for a Chinese emperor. The reels are decked out in regal scarlet and trimmed with gold leaf, topped with intricate dragons and a pagoda-style roof. The symbols illustrate the cultural heritage of the region, from beautiful temples to delicate and fragile chinaware. The gaming experience is also enhanced by funky and upbeat music reminiscent of a bustling Hong Kong street scene.
Format
With five reels, three rows and up to 25 paylines, Fortune Fish provides plenty of opportunities to win big. Line bets can be adjusted by clicking ‘bet’ and can range from $0.01 to $0.20. The ‘line’ button beneath this allows you to change the number of active paylines anywhere from 1 to 25. This leaves you with a maximum bet per spin of $5.00.
Fortune Fish also offers an auto-spin feature which can be toggled with the ‘auto’ button in the lower right. Simply set the number of spins you’d like to automate, from 5 to a huge 1,000 spins, then sit back and watch the reels go wild!
Symbols of Fortune
The symbols that you need to collect to win are almost prizes in their own right. The beautiful Ming vase, teapot and teacup symbols are all treated as one of a kind, meaning that they can all form combinations with each other. Five of any of these on an active line will award $20.00 if you play with the maximum bet.
The gold coins and bowl are also paired, which makes it even easier for you to win big! Moving up the scale of value, landing five dragon symbols on a line nets you a huge $100 payout, whereas the eponymous golden Fortune Fish pays a cool $200 for all five.
Scattered Treasure
As well as being valuable in its own right, the Fortune Fish is also the wild symbol, which substitutes for all other regular symbols to help you forge more of those winning combinations. The treasured pagoda temple symbol is the scatter, meaning that it pays out wherever it appears on the reels. Five scattered pagoda temples are worth a massive $2,500, so keep your eye out!
Bonus Game
Fortune Fish also offers a small bonus mini-game for those feeling particularly fortunate. After a winning spin, you are presented with the choice to go head to head against the dealer in a game of chance. Try to guess the colour of the face-down card to double your winnings, or try your luck guessing the suit and your coins will be quadrupled!
This mini-game goes on for as long as you keep winning or until you accumulate 50x your total bet, so if fortune is on your side, the winnings will keep rolling in!
