Fortune Bowl Demo Slot - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

Although this slot has been marked as having a lucky theme, the game makers seem to have resisted the urge to symbol-stuff and have instead focused on a few symbols, including piles of lucky gold coins, a beaded bracelet, coy carp, and a bonsai tree, among others. This has a lovely effect of bringing together the game without it feeling forced.

With 1,204 winning ways, there are plenty of opportunities to win big playing Fortune Bowl. You can even adjust the number of active paylines to suit your preferred gaming strategy.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

Red and gold are seen as colours of luck and wealth in Asian culture, so players shouldn’t be surprised to see these colours throughout Fortune Bowl. The reels themselves seem to be set on some sort of temple with pretty faded scenery in the background that contrasts nicely with the vibrant symbols that appear on the reels.

The symbols are lucky, with piles of coins, a beaded bracelet, a bonsai tree, a lucky charm, and coy carp offering the top prize of up to 1,000 coins for five of a kind when gambling with the highest bet limit. There are also lower-paying card symbols running from A through 9.

The soundtrack is an upbeat, repetitive Asian tune that brings the reels to life and gives a positive vibe to this game.

Symbols come to life when involved in a winning combination, which is a nice touch, with coins flying out of the Fortune Bowl for big wins.

How to Play Fortune Bowl

As mentioned earlier, winning combinations in Fortune Bowl run from left to right, with the Wild able to replace any symbol excluding the Scatter. The controls run along the bottom of your screen, with the ability to keep an eye on your available credit and win size in the top left corner.

1. Check paytables, paylines, and bonus features by clicking on the ‘i’ symbol on the far-left of the control panel to familiarise yourself with the rules before playing.

2. The next symbol allows you to adjust your sound settings.

3. Choose how many active reels/paylines you want by clicking the ‘^’ and ‘v’ buttons by ‘Reels’. There are five choices available.

4. Once you’re happy with your reel setup, place your bet by clicking the ‘^’ and ‘v’ buttons by ‘Bets’.

5. The next button is the Autoplay option, which allows you to set from 10 to 500 automatic spins that will run until you trigger the free spins feature.

6. If you prefer to spin the reels yourself, hit the large ’Spin’ button in the bottom left corner and away you go!

Bet Sizes & Paytable

With just one reel active and the lowest bet placed, you can spin from just 0.03, or bring all five reels to life to place a maximum bet of 88.00! This huge spread of betting possibilities makes Fortune Bowl a great slot for penny players and high rollers alike and gives plenty of opportunity to take home some huge prizes.

The highest-valued symbol is the coy carp, offering up to 1,000 coins for five of a kind when you wager the top bet of 88. The top prizes available for the other symbols are as follows:

Coy Carp: 1,000

Lucky charm / Bonsai tree: 800

Bracelet / pile of coins: 300

A / K: 200

Q / J / 10 / 9: 100

The Wild can also act as a Multiplier, multiplying wins it's involved in by the number of Wilds appearing.

Bonus Features

The Scatter in Fortune Bowl is a green frog sitting on a pile of coins. Find three or more in a row to trigger a x2, x5, or x20 cash prize and trigger the free spins round.

Once triggered, you’ll have the choice of five different features as follows:

5 free spins with Wild Multipliers worth x10, x15, or x30

8 free spins with Multipliers of x8, x10, or x15

10 free spins with Multipliers of x5, x8, or x10

15 free spins with Multipliers of x3, x5, or x8

20 free spins with Multipliers of x2, x3, or x5

Conclusion

Overall, we were really happy playing Fortune Bowl. We thought the soundtrack and vibrant symbols created a joyful gaming experience, and although the RTP hasn’t been formally announced, we expect it to be fairly high based on the number of times we hit some decent payouts! Considering the Scatters actually need to line up to trigger in Fortune Bowl, we were really surprised when we managed to trigger the free spins twice in just 50 spins and walked away with some decent rewards. We suggest choosing the low number of spins with high multipliers for the best returns, although that’s just based on our personal experience.
