Beautiful animations welcome you to 100 Fortunes by Northern Lights Gaming. We’re quite far from Aurora Borealis this time around, as the slot borrows its theme from Chinese mythology and culture. That, however, has not stopped the company from producing a quality game.
The graphics stand out, but that’s not what you’re here for. The hundred fortunes wouldn’t be much of a name if the slot wasn’t dishing out a fortune or two. Though truth be told, in this case the fortunes refer to the one hundred paylines that can be activated via special features.
Theme
The eastern influences come in form of lanterns, market places, familiar symbols and somewhat familiar music. There are a few normal symbols mixed in as well. The theme itself isn’t all that deep, it’s simply a collection of graphical splendour and superb animations. The latter really fill the screen, adding a layer of action that you didn’t even know you were missing. Despite this, the game still runs smoothly on all devices.
Betting Options and Functions
There’s no lack of symbol space here. The slot offers the normal five reels, but each has been extended to six symbol spaces, which is double the normal number. In the base game, you have forty paylines running from left to right. Despite this, the overall betting level is really low, and you can start with 0.10 coins per spin.
The game is clearly aimed for mobile markets, that much is clear from the interface. Click or swipe, you have easy access to all the necessary functions.
You have probably guessed that when it comes to wins, the more paylines the lower the main prizes tend to be. Of course, the variance comes into play here as well. Overall, you’re looking at quite low wins. But that changes with the special features.
Features
Once the bonus games active you get 35 extra paylines (making the total 75). 25 more come into play with further bonus features.
At the end of each spin you have a random chance of triggering the Yo-Yo spin. The middle reels can then have one of three different special activated:
- Symbol Swap
One to three Yo-Yos drop down to switch any other symbols for the 100 Fortunes special symbols
- Cascading Reels
Again, one to three Yo-Yos, smashing symbols on the way. Cascading reels then guarantee that what rolls forwards is a guaranteed win.
- Free spins and Super Free spins
Now, this can play out in several different ways, clearly making the main bonus of the game. The feature can also be activated via the scatters. The number of spins is determined by a mini-game of its own. In addition, there are extra reel positions (up to 10 symbols), extra wilds and multipliers.
Our Take
It might take a while to get there, but once you get the bonus games rolling this Northern Lights Gaming slot really start dishing out wins. With all the wilds and multipliers, the one hundred paylines really brings that much-needed spice up to the basic paytable. Try it for the specials, and you might just find your fortune!
