Fortune Coin Boost Review

Fortune Coin Boost is a sequel to IGT's popular Fortune Coin slot released back in 2020. The series originated as a land-based machine with a range of progressive jackpots, but the online version, however, offered fixed jackpot prizes. IGT has stayed true to the first part on the surface, but when you take a peek under the hood you’ll quickly notice the difference. Tweaked bonus features now offer more opportunities to win for the players, both in the base and the bonus games, where payouts of up to 8,000x the stake are possible.

Fortune Coin Boost - Slot Outlook

Much like any other Oriental-themed slot, Fortune Coin Boost sticks to a kind of common template in terms of the outer look. There's hardly anything new, and it has little personality for sure. Anyway, what differs it from the previous title is the background image, or rather its color. IGT has switched from blue to red in Fortune Coin Boost, though, everything else remained untouched. Dominating the view is a standard 5x3 reel set with a MultiWay pay system, producing 243 ways to play on each spin. At the very top are sitting Chinese dragons with a pot full of gold, and that's where all coins contribute upon landing, though, it's just cosmetic to a larger extent. We still hear the same Chinese tune as well, which hasn't changed a bit since the original slot.

Fortune Coin Boost Slot - Screen

Playable on any device, the Fortune Coin Boost slot comes with a betting range of €0.75 to €7,500 per spin, which should certainly appeal to even the riskiest of high-rollers, not to speak of casual players. The RTP is solid at 95.10%, which is a tad lower than the average level. However, the hit rate seems to be ok, so wins should occur fairly often, much like the features that pop up pretty frequently.

As we head over to the paytable, we see a bunch of recognizable symbols that are split into highs and lows. On the lower side, the pay symbols comprise classic A-9 card royals, and the premium lot includes a variety of traditional in-theme Chinese symbols. You'll need to land at least 3 symbols adjacently on the reels starting from the leftmost to score a payout, except the top-paying symbol that needs only two. Five-of-a-kind low symbol wins are worth 0.2x the stake, while higher value symbols pay from 0.26x to 1.33x. The dragon symbol is Wild, and it substitutes for any other regular symbols to help you achieve wins. During the base game and free spins, each reel contains large stacks of the same symbol, which is chosen randomly at the beginning of each spin. Any symbol can appear stacked on the reels except the Scatter.

Fortune Coin Boost - Bonus Features

Coins are the most desired symbols in the Fortune Coin Boost slot, and those trigger the self-titled Fortune Coin feature whenever one or more instances appear anywhere on the reels. Upon landing, Coin symbols reveal either a multiplier of 10x, 15x, 20x, 25x, 30x, 35x, 40x, 45x, 50x, 75x, 100x, 150x, 200x, 250x, 300x, 350x, 400x, 450x, 500x, and 750x of the coin value, trigger the Free Spins, or trigger the Jackpot Bonus.

Red Coins, in turn, trigger the Fortune Coin Boost feature, which can reveal either Coin Boost symbols or Feature Boost symbols. If a Coin Boost is revealed, all Coin values in view are increased according to the given table:

The Free Spins feature can be triggered when 3 or more Scatter symbols appear simultaneously on the reels during the base game or through the Fortune Coin or Fortune Coin Boost features, where 5, 10, 15, or 20 spins can be awarded. Landing 3, 4, or 5 Scatters gives 10, 15, or 20 spins to start with respectively, and retriggers are possible. The free games feature plays out in a similar way to the base game, but the major difference is that all lower-paying symbols are removed from the reels during the remainder of the feature. On top of that, if the feature is accessed with a Feature Boost symbol, up to 3 lowest premium symbols may be removed as well.

Fortune Coin Boost Slot - Jackpot Bonus

In the Jackpot Bonus, players are presented with 18 different coins, and players pick and reveal those one by one until they find 3 matching jackpot symbols to win the corresponding jackpot prize. Available prizes are Mini, Minor, Major, Maxi, and Grand Jackpots, worth 6.66x, 13.33x, 33.33x, 133.33x, and 1,333.33x the stake respectively.

However, bigger prizes are possible if Boost, Super Boost, or Mega Boost symbols are revealed, which increase all available jackpot prizes by 1x, 2x, or 3x the reset value. All Jackpots can be increased by up to a maximum of 6x, which means that the top prize can reach 8,000x value.

Finally, if Feature Boost symbols were awarded when the Jackpot Bonus was triggered, then Remove Level symbols are added. If the Remove Level symbol is revealed, then the lowest possible jackpot is removed for the remainder of the bonus. It's possible to remove up to 3 jackpots within a single bonus round.

Fortune Coin Boost - Slot Verdict

The Fortune Coin series benefited a lot since the first release, and the Boost version has really taken it to the next level. Although we still have static jackpots in contrast to the progressive land-based version, you can still claim epic rewards with all those random upgrades. Moreover, Fortune Coin Boost features 5 jackpots instead of 4 as does the original Fortune Coin slot, and it can pay up to 8,000x when several boosts are applied. All up, Fortune Coin Boost is a decent slot, and once you get past the basic looks, you'll find out the gameplay lurking beneath is just terrific.
