Play Joker Fortune for Free

Retro slots are great, especially if you are just starting out in the world of slot machines. However, even the biggest fans of 3-reel games get a little bit bored of the same old format from time to time. And if you're in the market for something that is a little bit more extravagant on the gameplay front while still keeping it relatively simple in terms of theme and design, then you won't go wrong with Joker Fortune by Stakelogic software.

That is because this game features all of the conventional fruit symbols that have been used since the dawn of the slot machine. We're talking about cherries, lemons, oranges, plums, grapes and watermelons. There are also some golden bells and colourful star icons too. It really doesn't get any more classic than that.

However, punters will appreciate that this game goes above and beyond the classic call of duty, offering a visual display that you won't find at any 3-reel retro game. As such, the icons are presented in stunning clarity, using 3D style rendering and even a bit of animation to bring the symbols to life. In fact, the icons in this game are all depicted with googly eyes, giving them a slightly silly appearance to match the novelty vibe of the game.

What's more, the slot makes use of some fun sound effects with wacky laughter and a childlike theme tune.

Despite the immature and silly nature of the game's sound and design, this slot machine still offers some serious winning potential with 10 paylines that pay in both directions, from right to left as well as from left to right. All spinners have to do is find three or more of the same symbol upon those paylines to win the following line bet multiplier prizes:

All of the prize multipliers shown above will be applied to the value of the bet per line. The line bets will be determined by a couple of factors – the number of coins placed and the value of those coins. Punters can play with 1 to 10 coins with the following denominations: 0.01, 0.02 ,0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.50. The 10 paylines in the game are permanently fixed, meaning that spinners will have to multiply their line bets by 10x to calculate the total bet.

Joker Fortune may be full of classic slot machine symbols, but that doesn't mean that the video slot won't offer any special bonus features. In fact, spinners of the game will be given a helping hand to complete those all important payline wins thanks to a wild joker symbol that will replace all of the icons in the paytable above.

The only symbol that won't be substituted by the wild joker is the “Joker Fortune” logo icon. That is because this bonus icon triggers a round of free spins whenever three, four or five line up on one of the 10 paylines. Players who find three of these special symbols will receive 5 free spins while four will trigger 10 and five will award a total of 15 free games.

Players will also notice that the 5 reels of this game are presented in front of a wheel of fortune. This spinning wheel of colourful segments features the same symbols from the reels, and it will spin at random to reveal an icon which will then be placed on the reels in stacks. Essentially, this arbitrary gameplay feature offers players the chance to trigger multiple paylines at once for extra big fortunes!

Admittedly, Joker Fortune might not appeal to every fan of retro slot machines because, in honesty, the game does feel a little bit silly in comparison to the cool and classic vibe of most other fruit machines out there. However, if you aren't afraid of a bit of novelty action, then you might just benefit from the video slot's bonus elements.
