Play Japan Fortune for Free

Without question one of the first things that will strike you about Japan Fortune is the stunning backdrop that the reels are set in.

Developer Spade Gaming have excelled themselves with the graphics in this game, and you’ll really get a sense of being transported to another part of the world.

Behind the board, there’s a mirror smooth lake which reflects the glorious landscape in its shiny reflection. The colour has been carefully altered to provide shades of black, grey, blue and white giving an almost monochrome appearance in stark contrast to the reels. The pagodas peeking out from the edges of the scene are a telltale that you’ve arrived in the Orient, and add to the feeling of tranquility and wellbeing.

This is a place where you could really relax and recharge your batteries - if only you weren't playing on the reels!

And on the reels you’ll find a stark contrast with vivid colours and kitsch designs grabbing your attention.

Completing the mood is the Oriental music in the background, providing a very authentic feel to the game.

While the setting is so beautiful you could gaze at the screen forever, you’ve embarked on this journey to win cash prizes so it’s on with the game!

To start, check out the paytable to see what prizes are on offer and how you could win. The button to exit the main screen is on the bottom left and is clearly marked.

In Japan Fortune, to win a prize you’ll need to match three or more symbols but if you can match more, it’s a plus because the more matches you get the bigger the win. All the symbols are worth different values with the card letters generally at the lower end of the board. The pagoda offers the top prize with a payout of 5,000 for matching five.

On reels 2 and 4 you’ll also find the wild symbol. This can substitute for most of the other symbols and helps to match a winning line.

The scatter win multiplies the prize by the stake and also offers free spins too. The free spins can be re-triggered so this prize can be extended indefinitely if you’re lucky! During the free spins, the wild symbols on reels 2 and 4 transform into expanding sticky wilds, helping you even further.

Other features include a World Wonder Wheel which offers the chance to play for the jackpot.

Once you’ve finished assessing the prizes you could win return to the main game and get ready to start to spin the reels. But just before you begin, you’ll need to set up your bet.

Japan Fortune is played on 5 reels and there's up to 30 paylines you can choose. This amount can be reduced if you prefer to play on less, using the plus and minus keys on the screen. You’ll also have the opportunity to set the value of the coin from between the minimum of 0.01 and 1.00. You can bet between one and ten coins per line so this game really offers a lot of flexibility. The minimum possible total bet is just 0.01 and the max bet is 300.00.

If you’re not averse to risk, there’s a special gamble feature which becomes available every time you win. Rather than collect your prize your can choose to gamble it for the chance of winning more.

To play you’ll need to take a bet on the card about to be turned over. If you bet on the colour of the card you can win twice your money, and if you bet on the suit you can win four times your cash. Of course, if you get it wrong you’ll lose the lot so think carefully before you take the plunge!

Take a trip to the East with Japan Fortune the online video slot from Spade Gaming. Gorgeous graphics and smooth gameplay coupled with lots of chances to win prizes make this a top pick for any player.
