Play Space Fortune for Free

As is the case with all slots games, the first thing that comes into sight and attention when you’ve loaded up Space Fortune is of course the look, layout, sound and appearance of it: otherwise known as the theme. Though we’ve certainly seen more cutting edge and dynamic looking games, Space Fortune nonetheless packs some slick cartoon style graphics and vibrant colours to boot.

The text which adorns and surrounds the game’s 5 reels is akin to what you’d see bolstering up the credits to a 1980s or 1990s intergalactic cinematic blockbuster and the whole thing is tied up nicely with a vividly coloured other-worldly city as a background.

Before you even set the reels to spin you know only too well what this game is all about – which is never a bad thing. We all know that as much as the theme sets the mood of a session on the slots, it doesn’t really have all that much to do with the mechanics of the game itself. With this, it’s always good to have something that’s fun and engaging – and Space Fortune certainly delivers on this front.

The symbols present within Space Fortune are about as diverse and unique as they come. The developers have taken care to include the classics that you’d expect from a game of this theme; such as the rocket ship, the planet and the ray gun, as well as more interesting picks like the space ready cat and buxom female astronaut. Further to this, there’s also a couple of food related symbols floating about (a burger and a milkshake) and not one, but two different types of alien!

With five reels and a total of 25 separate paylines, the game packs as much punch as any you’re likely to encounter these days. And, with all the usual scatter and wild features and functions that slot gamers have come to expect from their consoles, Space Fortune is careful not to rock the boat all that much in terms of the routes it offers to its players on their way towards a steady fortune.

Of course, with this unwillingness to try something new and think outside of the box through fear of marginalising the common player, it is often hard for developers to create something truly memorable that sticks around long after the initial attraction or gimmick has worn off.

All things considered, Space Fortune isn’t going to make game history any time soon. With it’s highly safe premise and commitment towards giving lovers of the standard 5 reel format exactly what they want, there’s no question that this game is highly unlikely to stand the test of time.

Then again, we must question whether or not it was ever the intention of the game’s developers to create something that will still be played a year or two from now. After all, isn’t it in their own best interests to turn their audiences onto new slots and products as and when they are released?
