Get the full scoop in our Halloween Fortune slot review!
Game overview
Halloween Fortune takes you on a journey to a sorcerous realm. In this title, three bewitching women riding broomsticks welcome you to a mystical game of trick or treat that plays out on a 5×3 grid with 20 paylines. As you might expect, the high-value symbols on the reels are the witches: A red-haired witch in a ruby-red dress, a brunette witch in emerald green and a white-haired witch in sapphire blue. They all have a mysterious look… as though they know something you don’t!
The low-value symbols are just as intriguing. Instead of the playing-card symbols you see in so many online slots, you’re entertained by a crazy black cat, a raucous raven, an ancient amulet, a pink potion and a scary skull candle. The wild symbol is a grinning Halloween pumpkin that lights up the game with a multiplier ranging from 10x to 10,000x, if you land 5 on a payline. Additional symbols include a scatter with the Halloween Fortune game logo on it and a witch’s cauldron that bubbles with winning possibilities. That’s the one that sets off the free spins bonus feature, so keep an eye out for it.
How to play
Unlike many online slots these days, Halloween Fortune requires you to be your own agent of fortune, so you get to select the number of paylines you want to play with. That’s an important consideration because it makes a difference to your total bet per round. To calculate that, multiply your line bet by the number of active paylines, or simply look at the paytable. The more paylines you activate, the higher your bet and vice versa.
The ability to select fewer paylines combined with the low betting range ($0.1 to $1) makes Halloween Fortune one of the best games to play at the casino if you’re on a low budget. So use the Bet Options panel to select your paylines and line bet. You can also customize the game with the Auto Spin button and make the reels go faster with Turbo Spin. Once you’ve made your choices, it’s time to go spinning with the witches!
Graphics
One of the most enjoyable things about playing the Halloween Fortune slot is the witchcraft that’s gone into the graphics and animations. Playtech really went all in to keep players entertained. Not only do the symbols look great on their own, but they come alive on the reels in 3D when they form winning combinations. The cat bristles, the raven croaks and the skull candle’s eyes gleam in a terrifying manner. The witches whizz around on their brooms, and the Halloween pumpkin lights up the party with its eyes of flame. As for the bonus symbol, the way the cauldron bubbles has a truly supernatural effect. All of this is perfectly complemented by a soundtrack that hits all the spooky notes. Not many online slots pay such attention to detail!
Features
The Halloween Fortune slot has two fun special features to keep things interesting. One is a game where you simply guess whether a playing card is black or red. Guess wrong and you lose your bet; guess right and you double your win up to a maximum of 1,000 coins! You can activate this optional gamble game any time you win, either in the base game or the Witches Brew bonus round.
To trigger Witches Brew, you need to land cauldron bonus symbols on reels 1 and 5. You’ll then be zoomed into a mini-game screen, where you have to “pick a witch” to conjure you up some free spins. Your chosen witch reveals the (randomly generated) number of free spins you’ll receive (max 20,) and then you find yourself alone with the mystical lady of your choice in a chamber filled with alchemical apparatus and old books. The witch stirs her cauldron and six magic potions appear. The one you pick awards you with a randomly generated win-multiplier number.
Bonuses and jackpots
The jackpot you can potentially achieve in the Halloween Fortune slot largely depends on your fortune during the Witches Brew bonus round. A winning combination of 5 Halloween pumpkin wilds will earn you the maximum payout of 10,000x your stake. If you land the cauldron on reels 1 and 5 during Witches Brew, you’ll receive another set of free spins with the same win multiplier you were granted by your chosen witch.
