Slingo Fortunes whisks you off on an Asian adventure where you’ll get to open lucky red envelopes over 10 spins, revealing rich rewards as you go. The aim of Slingo Fortunes is to match the numbers on the 5 reels with those on the 5x5 grid above them, either diagonally, in a column or a row. 

The game matrix is set against a patterned background with traditional Asian-style designs on it, although the fairly busy mix of numbers, reels, prize values and control buttons pretty much hides it from view. A nice soundtrack that fits the theme plays along with the action, interrupted by a variety of whistles, bells, bleeps and bongs as different events occur in each spin. 

Slingo Fortunes may look a little strange, but playing is actually quite easy. You’ll start by selecting your stake from the various options that run from 0.02 all the way up to 100 on either side of the game board, and then you’ll hit spin to kick off the 10 spins.

You’ll then be shown 26 red Chinese envelopes, which traditionally are lucky. In each envelope is a prize, and you’ll be awarded these prizes if you have a Full House by the close of the round of 10 spins. With every spin, any matching numbers that are displayed on the 5 reels will turn the corresponding envelopes on the grid into stars.

With each envelope that opens you’ll see a cash value, and this value will match up with the green and yellow boards on the sides of the grid. The matched value is then eliminated from the grid, and your aim is to line up a vertical, horizontal or diagonal line of stars. This line is called a Slingo and needs to form before the 10 spins of the reels reach their conclusion. There is also a special modifier in the game that can either give you a helping hand, or hinder your progress.

A smiling cartoon Joker in a red hat is a wild symbol. He can open any envelope in the column above his reel position if it helps complete a row of stars. A green Super Joker is even more useful as he will be able to open an envelope in any position on the grid, not just those above him. But look out for the Devil symbol, as this guy will be able to block any potential matches on the reels.

There’s one other symbol that can appear, and that’s the Free Spin icon. This simply adds one more spin to the original 10, although several can turn up in the course of these games, which means you could have a number of extra chances to complete rows of stars.

To the left of the grid, there’s a Prize Boost Ladder. As you complete more Slingos, you move up the ladder, earning multipliers on any remaining lines. You’ll need to complete 4 lines to trigger the first reward, which sees a traditional Chinese fortune bowl appearing on the screen. This symbol gives you the choice to either accept the offer shown along with the bowl, decline the pick and open the envelope that you originally chose, or continue with the spins.

If you opt for the latter, the next win will be multiplied by 2x, followed by 3x and so on. This continues until you reach all the way up the ladder to a Full House, and your prizes will be multiplied by a huge 20x. At the end of the spins, unless you have a Full House, you will be offered extra spins at a cost which is displayed on the screen, along with any potential wins if the reels land numbers or Jokers in your favour.

In Slingo Fortunes the smiling cartoon style Joker wearing the red hat is the Wild. This Joker can open any envelope in a column that is above his reel position, if the envelope will reveal a star to complete a winning line. The green Joker is even more rewarding though, as he can open any envelope anywhere on the grid to reveal a win. But keep an eye out for the devil symbol, as this guy can block any matches and stop the formation of winning lines.

If you land the free spin symbol on the reels you’ll be awarded an extra spin, so instead of 10 you’ll get 11. This symbol can appear regularly too, so you could find yourself racking up plenty of spins and chances to win as you play your 10.

On the left of the grid you’ll see the Prize Boost Ladder and the more Slingos you land, the higher up the ladder you’ll climb. The higher you go, the greater the multipliers you’ll be awarded, and if you complete 4 lines you’ll activate the fortune bowl feature. Here you can either accept the offer made with the bowl, decline the offer and reclaim your original envelope, or simply continue with spinning the reels. 

If you accept the offer you’ll get a 2x multiplier on your next win, followed by 3x and so on. This multiplier will continue until you land a Full House, and then you’ll get a whopping 20x multiplier added to your win. If you don’t land a Full House by the end of your spins, you can opt to accept extra spins at an additional cost in order to keep on trying.
