Playboy Fortunes HyperSpins Review

The original branded Playboy slot release from Microgaming has withstood the test of time almost as good as the iconic brand itself, and it has remained popular ever since its mid-2013 launch. The same cannot be said about Gameburger’s original Playboy Fortunes however, but this hasn’t stopped them from piling on yet another 9 Masks Of Fire copycat release infused with scantily clad bunny-eared ladies.

As the title more than indicates, Playboy Fortunes HyperSpins comes with Microgaming’s trademarked HyperSpins™ feature, which is the sole difference from the original reskin job. You thus get to respin individual reels indefinitely for a price, and doing this in the most optimal way increases the RTP from 96.24 to 96.74 %. Exactly how you squeeze the most out of this feature is unclear, but we would guess it’s best used to increase scatter jackpots and/or trigger the bonus round.

Playboy Fortunes HyperSpins Features

The Playmate bunnies are depicted on the single, double and triple 7s top-tier symbols, and 5 of a kind of the latter awards 37.5x your stake. Any combination of the bunnies/7s symbols pay 3.25x your stake for 5-oak, and the casino chip Wild pays 125x your stake for the same. Of course, wild symbols also step in for all regular pay symbols to help complete winning combinations.

The HyperSpins feature is the only thing that’s different from the original game, and it allows you to pay an individually calculated price to respin each reel individually and indefinitely. The HyperSpins feature is only active in the base game though, and it can be used to get a higher scatter prize or trigger the bonus round.

Landing 3+ Playboy scatters anywhere in view awards an instant Scatter Prize in all stages of the game. More precisely, you’ll win 1, 5, 15, 40, 100, 500 or 2,000 x your stake when you land 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 scatters, respectively. You can see all the scatter jackpot tiers on the left-hand side, and they change according to your bet level.

The bonus scatter symbol can land on reels 2, 3 and 4 only, and you need 3 in view to trigger a spin on the Free Spins Wheel. The wheel awards between 10 and 30 free spins, as well as a multiplier of x2 or x3 (the latter combines with 25 and 30 free spins only). The multiplier applies to all regular payouts in the bonus round, but not the instant scatter jackpots. You get the same amount of spins that you got from the wheel if the feature is retriggered.

Our 3-minute highlights video starts with a scatter jackpot win in the lower end of the spectrum, but it’s still duly celebrated with fireworks and dancing Playmate bunnies. You get to see plenty more wins also, before we use the HyperSpins feature to trigger the bonus round at 1:18. We got 10 free spins with an x2 multiplier, and you can see how we fared by hitting the play button below.

Review Summary

The original Playboy Fortunes is far from the most successful 9 Masks of Fire clone out there, and we would have preferred if Gameburger simply included the HyperSpins feature in the original release instead. Churning out yet another reskin where the sole difference is the ability to respin reels individually for a calculated price seems overly desperate, although the feature is arguably useful when it comes to upgrading scatter prizes or triggering the bonus round.

Other than that, you get the same somewhat charming Playmate bunny glamour as the original installment offers, which many punters probably view as problematic objectivization of women in these politically correct “me too” times. We doubt this licenced follow-up effort will be a massive hit in other words, and we certainly hope this marks the end of the Playboy-infused 9MoF reskin saga for Gameburger.

If you enjoy Playboy Fortunes HyperSpins you should also try:

Playboy Fortunes - is the original 9 Masks of Fire reskin job from Gameburger, and it comes with the exact same math model as the game at hand. The visual presentation is identical also, but this version does not come with the HyperSpins feature.

Playboy Gold Jackpots - is a Triple Edge Studios (Microgaming) release centered around the same branded pinup theme, and it comes with 5x6 reels and 30 paylines. You’ll benefit from jumbo blocks, as well as a bonus wheel that can dish out jackpots up to 2,500x your stake. The bonus round comes with wild multipliers up to x25, and seductive bunnies abound in all stages of the game.

9 Masks Of Fire - is a very hot game in different ways than the one at hand, and it’s become a surprising smash hit for Gameburger. You get x2 or x3 multipliers in the bonus round, and instant scatter jackpots up to 2,000x your stake can be landed in all stages of the game.
