Dr Fortuno Slot
Yggdrasil Gaming’s Dr Fortuno slot is loosely themed on a carnival, but not your average run-of-the-mill circus. Instead, this game features more of a “circus of horrors” theme to it, complete with two two-headed ladies, a fantastical illusionist, and lotions and potions galore. Dr Fortuno also utilises stacked symbols in its gameplay, which makes things a touch easier for players to land decent wins when playing this slot.
Dr Fortuno features 20 fixed paylines attached to its 5 reels, and while players cannot alter those lines, they are free to change their stakes. A considerable wagering range should cater to players operating on all budgets, with bets ranging from 10p up to £100 in all. For that, players can compete to win a top non-progressive payline prize which is capped at around 400x their total bet. However, with the Wheel of Fortuno bonus feature, a prize worth 1,000x a stake can be won.
Special features
To win the jackpot in Dr Fortuno, players need to land a win utilising a Fortuno Wild. These symbols appear as the illusionist himself and are stacked. They can be nudged to fill an entire reel, making triggering the Wheel of Fortuno bonus easier to land.
Once the Wheel of Fortuno is active, players can spin a fortune wheel to win cash prizes, multipliers and free spins. Players can only win free spins with this feature if they happen to trigger it while involved in the free spin round in the first place. However, if they land on the Jackpot Chance section, they will unlock the jackpot section on the wheel. Following that up by landing on the segment will trigger the top prize.
Players can trigger a free spin bonus if they land 3 or more bonus scatters (a magician’s hat) on the reels.
Bonus features
Players start the free spin round with a total of 10 spins under their belt. Players can also expect to be able to play with 1, 2, or 3 extra features, if they triggered the round with 3, 4 or 5 scatters. Those features include the removal of low-paying icons, 2x multipliers, more Fortuno Wilds on the reels, 5-10 extra spins, high paying symbols turning into wilds, and the ability to win in both directions. The other “characters” in the game can also become wilds in this feature. As mentioned, winning free spins with the Wheel of Fortuno bonus is only possible in the free spin round.
Overview
Nobody could ever say that Yggdrasil Gaming hasn’t kitted out the Dr Fortuno slot with an ample supply of special features. The free spin bonus promises a raft of bonuses, and there are decent ways to win in this game. While there are plenty of similar mad and scary carnival-themed casino slots out there on the net, Dr Fortuno just seems to have a little bit more of an edge over those rivals, on account of its cheap spins and its wealth of goodies.
