Software developer Microgaming has gained a reputation for itself by taking risks. These risks do not always pay off, In fact, we have seen some unfortunate efforts from the developer over the years, but when they get it right, they get it really right.Steampunk powerhouse Fortunium is a prime example of Microgaming getting it all right, and makes it one of the most exciting games in their brimming portfolio.
About the slot
With five rows and 40 paylines, Fortunium is playable from 10p to £125 a spin on all compatible desktop, mobile, and tablet devices.The steampunk theme is brought to life throughout this slot, with alchemical art and mechanical machines throughout.Two characters, Maximillian and Victoria, stand proud on the reels, and come stacked five high, wile all other symbols including airships, plasma guns, and more, all appear double stacked.The wild symbol replaces all but the scatter, as is traditional, and the artwork and design here is stunning all round.Steampunk is a theme that a fair few slots have taken on in recent years, but Fortunium may well be the best of the bunch, aesthetically at least.
Gameplay
This is a slot that stands out from the pack in terms of features too, with a fair few to be found here.Firstly, you have the Mystery Symbols feature, which triggers when Mystery Symbols land on the reels randomly turning into any other symbol, including wilds.Then there’s the Free Spins feature, three or more scatters triggers 10 spins, with up to three Mystery Reels on each free spin and an extra spin for every scatter that lands during the feature.If you like a risk, you can also use the Win Booster feature, which costs an extra 50% of your stake, but removes low value symbols from the Mystery Symbols feature.A fun slot in terms of gameplay, and a striking on in terms of looks, Fortunium is great.
