IGT are back with a new slot release called Wheel of Fortune Ruby Riches, another addition to their Wheel of Fortune series which is themed on a TV gameshow. Features include 5 fixed jackpots and a top prize worth x1,000 your wager.
Slot details
This is a medium variance slot with 5 reels and 30 paylines, and bets start from 75p up to £150 per spin.The design is rich and bold. The reels are framed in silver and embellished with diamonds, sitting on a lush red velvet backdrop.Symbols are 10 to Ace royals, a ring, a brooch and a ruby. The latter 3 will pay out x2.60 your wager for 5 on a payline.There are also a few bonus symbols, a wild and a scatter.
Gameplay
The Ca$hLink Deluxe feature is activated whenever a treasure chest collector lands on the 5th reel but without a coin scatter appearing on the 1st reel. All coins have a cash value attached and these are added to your total win.They can also reveal one of the 5 jackpots: the Mini, Minor, Major, Mega and Grand. These pay out x8.33, x25, x41.66, x83.33 and x150 your wager respectively.Landing a cash coin on the 1st reel and a treasure chest on the 5th reel on a single spin, triggers the Wheel bonus. All coin values are added together, and you get to spin the wheel which awards you with a multiplier worth x5, x10 or x20 your stake, a cash prize or the Jackpot which is worth x1,000 your wager.You can also earn 10 free spins by landing a scatter on the 1st, 3rd and 5th reels, and you can re-trigger the feature and earn up to a maximum of 200 free spins.
Verdict
The RTP is set at 96.15% which is not too bad, but I was really disappointed at the low top prize. I feel a lot of players might be put off by this and the cost of the minimum wager, which does seem to be quite high for the low payout on offer.
