Dr Fortuno is a magic/circus-themed slot, featuring 5 reels and 20 paylines. It is playable across all devices and accepts bets between 0.10 and £100 per spin.
The symbols you will see on the reel include potion bottles in different colours, as well as Dr Fortuno’s troupe of misfits – the Night Twins, the Fire Head, and the Water Witch. All of them occupy 3 spots on the reels. Dr Fortuno himself also appears 3 symbols high and he represents the wild symbol.
Wheel of Fortuno
If the wild is a part of a winning combination, it nudges to fill the entire reel. The Wheel of Fortuno is triggered as well. The number of wilds included in your winning combination determines the number of Wheel of Fortuno spins. For example, if only one wild symbol was included in your winning combination, you get just one spin, etc.
The Wheel of Fortuno gives you the opportunity to secure incredible wins. In the best-case scenario, you will win the progressive jackpot. In all other cases, you will have to console yourself with a payout amounting up to 5x your stake, a multiplier of up to x5 or 2 extra Wheel of Fortuno spins. To unlock the jackpot field, you need to hit the jackpot chance field first. The jackpot amount is not fixed. You will see the amount left off the reel set.
Free Spins
If you land three bonus symbols (top hats), you will be granted 10 free spins. If you land more top hat symbols, you will unlock new features that boost your outcome. You may or may not unlock all enhancers, mentioned below. Their triggering depends on the number of bonus symbols you land:
- x2 multiplier
- low paying symbols removal
- wilds added on the reels
- all high paying symbols are transformed into wilds
- all paylines pay both ways
Bonus Bet
You can take advantage of a Bonus bet where you bet on the dealer drawing a Flush. If you win, you earn a multiplier as well as the chance to win the Daily Jackpot shared with Dr Fortuno’s slot game.
Bottom line
Dr Fortuno is a visually superb title and although the theme reminds us of the Great Gambini’s Night Magic, we consider it an innovative title that will see a lot of playtime once it goes live. With Dr Fortuno’s creation, Yggdrasil made a foray into the cross-vertical jackpot slots. We wonder if and when it will go with the flow and acquire a Megaways license.
Dr Fortuno seems to be in the works. We will update this review once it goes live across all casinos promoting Yggdrasil.
