Forest Fortunes Introduction
Online Pokies 4U are pleased to announce the addition of Forest Fortunes from Joyplay to their large collection of free online pokies. It is charmingly simple, with bright vivid graphics that pull the player into the game. This pokie game stands out with its simplicity and modern three-dimensional graphics.
Feather Light Fairies
The game screen is set in front of a depiction of an enchanting forest from where this pokie gets its name. The trees gently bend inwards, draped in ivy and branches that create a frame. The symbols are unpretentious. The highest winning icons are the large jewels. The sapphire and ruby crystals win $500. Next of value are a Gold ingot and an Amethyst cabochon that win $400.
Then come the playing card symbols whose icons are simple letters outlined in gold. The Ace, King and Queen have a worth of $250. The remaining Jack, Ten and Nine all garner $150. These rates are for five spun across all lines and winnings decrease when fewer appear. The lowest number spun to create a win is three. The wild is a highly ornate book, which is easy to imagine being a compendium of fairy tales.
Five of these across all play lines receives a total of $1,000. The scatter symbol is a green orb with the tantalising outline of a dainty fairy. She may be ethereal but when three appear it activates the bonus game. This entails pressing a tree like stop button as the various possibilities light up. This continues until the player loses and then rather generously all the winnings are added together.
She also appears to take charge of nudges. They range from zero to four, just before the reels move down, she flits across the game screen. The buttons to play are found at the bottom of the screen and from left to right are Home, Info (which gives the pay table), Lines, Bet, Total Bet, Winnings, Balance, Auto spin and lastly and most importantly Spin.
Tinkling and Twinkling
The sound track during game play is a delicate tinkle as the reels drop until the last one when there is a rather incongruous thud. When there is a win during a golden explosive animation the sounds reach a crescendo, leaving no doubt that there is a winner. There is a delightful animation of tumbling twinkling stars falling from the forest trees - the game creators have thought of everything!
Forest Fortunes from Joyplay has been developed with two modes of play, Free play and Money mode. Free play is where there is a balance of $120 of virtual money. This can be used to play the game, with all features of the game available.
As the stakes are low and the wins frequent it allows gamers to fully immerse themselves in this pokie. In the unlikely event of the virtual money running out, a simple refresh will take the monies back to the full $120. Money mode means that the player uses their own money and has a fair chance of making some reasonable winnings.
