Lucky Pharaoh Deluxe Fortune Play

The Fortune Play series of games has become particularly popular with punters, with many traditional releases having this mechanic added to them. Of course, this isn't the only feature included in the Lucky Pharaoh Deluxe Fortune Play slot, as a dedicated bonus mode can also be triggered during any spin. Another standout aspect of this title is the paylines, as they can award from left to right, right to left, or for matching combinations in the middle of the board.  

Lucky Pharaoh Deluxe Fortune Play was produced by Blueprint Gaming, a company that has certainly put their mark on the realm of online slots. Not only did they create the Fortune Play mechanic, but they also introduced the Jackpot King feature to many of their titles. This progressive jackpot can be found in slots such as Crown Gems Jackpot King and Fishin’ Frenzy Jackpot King, to name just a couple. 

The least desirable symbols in Lucky Pharaoh Deluxe Fortune Play are the standard 10, J, Q, K, and A icons that many players will already be familiar with. Next up are the premiums, which consist of an emerald, a sapphire, a ruby, and a Pharaoh. Should five of these form a matching combination, players will be awarded with 15x, 15x, 20x, or 25x their stake size, in that order. 

Lucky Pharaoh Deluxe Fortune Play comes with two special symbols, the first of which is a mystery icon. This is displayed as the logo of the game, and if it appears, it will reveal another symbol at random. All of the icons will be the same during the base game. The other special symbol is a golden box, which represents the fixed value icon in this release. Sadly, there is no wild icon to speak of. 

Let's start this section by looking at the 'Fortune Play' mechanic. This can be manually activated by players with the button to the left of the screen, taking them to a new board that features a total of 4 reel sets. After selecting a bet size and clicking on the play button, each set will begin to spin before stopping in succession. Like in other Fortune Play slots, should mystery symbols land on one reel set, they will transfer onto all other active boards. The mystery icons can also reveal different symbols per board. 

Should a golden box land in any position, the 'Money Spins' round will activate. To start, the triggering symbol will lock in place before players are awarded a total of 3 free spins. Only additional box icons can appear, and if one does, the number of spins will be reset to three. When no more spins remain, the values within these boxes will be totalled up and awarded to the player. 

The addition of Fortune Play to this slot adds another layer of entertainment for players, allowing them to spin four different reel sets simultaneously. There is also a respin-based bonus mode, which was not included in the original Lucky Pharaoh.  Play this and other slots at bwin.
