Mega Fortune Dreams has been created by NetEnt surely due to the popularity of their flagship progressive jackpot slot, dead or alive slot, Mega Fortune. The latter is responsible for the world’s largest ever online jackpot at €17.8 million so it makes perfect sense to offer a newer and sharper version of the game (with its own jackpots!). The game is also available to play on mobile and tablet devices such as iPhones and iPads.
Mega Fortune Dreams comes with 5 reels and 20 paylines and playable from just 20p to as much as £80 a spin. In terms of the theme, it is still luxurious but the graphics are much sharper and clearer that its predecessor. You will see champagne bottles, expensive watches, diamond rings, palm trees, diamonds and diamante-encrusted numbers.
Animations are also better with 2 champagne glasses appearing when you get a decent win to toast your success. and the soundtrack is very soothing and reminiscent of a Caribbean beach holiday (makes me think of my favourite place on the planet – Barbados).
Anyway, despite being a jackpot slot, it does benefit from a Free Spins feature – this is triggered when you get 3 or more diamond scatters anywhere on the reels. 3 diamonds gives you 10 free spins, 4 gives you 15 free spins and 5 gives you 20 free spins.
Mega Fortune Dreams is a Netent Progressive Jackpot slot is designed with 5 reels, 3 rows and 20 fixed pay lines. The theme for Mega Fortune Dreams is set in, what appears to be in a tropical paradise, and the backdrop, which you can see behind the reels, is set on a luxury yacht. The icons on the reels show off some luxury items, so expect to see expensive watches, champagne bottles, diamonds and some glitzy, diamond encrusted playing card icons: Q, K, J and A on the reels. The sound track has been given a bit of a modernization compared the original, although we have to say that in the original version the sound track was a bit cheesy, but was also part of the charm, however, Mega Fortune Dreams soundtrack is rather chilling and hard to dislike. It’s fitting with the design and that’s what matters.
review of Mega Fortune Dreams from NetEnt
Progressive Jackpot
Let’s kick off with the progressive jackpot because that’s probably why we’re all here; the process is triggered by landing three or more of the wheel of fortune symbols anywhere on reels three, four or five.
The wheel has three rings and each ring features arrows which will move you to an inner ring if you are lucky. If you can make it to the Mega Jackpot sign in the centre that massive prize will be yours. Stop on an outer ring and you can win either the Rapid Jackpot or the Major Jackpot.
The three jackpot totals are displayed above the reels at all times.
Free Spins
Landing three, four of five of the diamond scatter symbols anywhere on the reels will win you ten, fifteen of twenty spins respectively.
All wins will be multiplied by 3x during this feature but if you land more scatters you will also receive a random award of up to three more spins or an extra 1x or 2x multiplier. The multiplier can reach a maximum of 10x.
Stake Levels – Being a 40 payline slot game and one that offers a huge progressive jackpot you are always best advised to play all of the paylines available to guarantee you never miss out on any winning combinations that spin in. The coins value settings can be adjusted from just 0.01 up to a maximum of 0.50.
Jackpot Payout – The jackpot you are going to be hoping to win on this slot game is of course its progressive jackpot. You can always keep track of the value of the jackpot as it is displayed on the jackpot ticker meter at the top of the game screen.
Standard Reel Symbols – In addition to the standard Playing Card reel symbols in play on each of the five reels you will also find a number of other reel symbols including Champagne, Designer Handbags, Watches and Diamond Rings, all being things you could easily afford to buy if you win the progressive jackpot.
Scatter and Bonus Symbols – There is a Bonus Wheel reel symbol and also a Diamond Scatter symbol in play on the reels of this slot both of which can trigger their own unique bonus games.
Wild Symbols – The palm tree reel symbols are the Wild symbols and when you get them spinning in they may stay locked into place on the reel positions they spun in on and you could be awarded with a Re-Spin to give you an added chance of forming additional winning combinations.
