Mega Fortune (Netent): Overview

Let’s be completely honest here - we’d all like to be able to win a mega fortune, wouldn’t we? Just imagine the things that could be bought if you had a stash of cash and no restrictions on what you could spend it on! Luxury holidays, designer clothing, expensive vehicles, beautiful mansions - the possibilities are endless. Thanks to Netent, we can get a little bit closer to understanding what exactly it would be like to be a mega millionaire. Mega Fortune provides all sorts of imagery upon its reels, which relate to that exotic way of living. And who knows, while spinning away, you may just happen to hit your own jackpot win!

The slot itself is made up of 5 reels and 3 rows, which is quite the standard video slot design. Across this setup, Netent has chosen to add a set of 25 paylines. These lines are all fixed in position, so you won’t be able to customise them in one way or the other. One part of Mega Fortune that you can change though, is the value of the wager that is in play per spin. Doing so will allow you to select a wager of anywhere between 0.25 and €/$50 per spin. There’s also the inclusion of a max bet button to offer you the chance to reach this value instantly. Hint: the game is designed in such way that an increase in bet size equals a higher probability of winning the jackpot, albeit not by much.

Visually, Mega Fortune sticks to the tried and tested high-quality that Netent is famous for, offering up a strong selection of graphics. In the background of the game, there’s a high-class yacht docked in a marina. Meanwhile, upon the reels, the first of its symbols come in the form of expensive-looking rings featuring the playing card icons on them. After this, you’ll see the higher-paying symbols of the game, starting with the whisky and cigar. Then comes the diamond-encrusted watch and the wad of money. It’s the fancy limousine that operates as the highest-paying standard symbol of Mega Fortune though, offering a maximum win of 40 times your stake for five on a full payline. The wild symbol is the image of the luxurious yacht. If it shows up on the reels, it will substitute for all standard symbols and help you with creating wins.

Mega Fortune (Netent): Features

You’ll get to experience a few different perks when playing this slot game, not least of all its progressive jackpots. First up is the Free Spins round, which is triggered by the scatter symbol. It is the bottle of champagne and two glasses that represents this one - 3 or more of these need to come into view in any location for you to activate the free spins round. If this happens, you will need to click on one of the scatters to reveal the number of free spins you’ve won. One other intriguing perk of this round is that wins will be paid out with a multiplier of up to 5x in operation.

Don’t forget about the slot’s Bonus Round either, because it is this which will lead you to the jackpots. If you spin 3 or more of the bonus wheel symbols into view from leftmost reel onwards, then the bonus game activates. This offers up a set of wheels for you to spin, with the first and second wheels providing you with the opportunity of coin wins. The second and third wheels offer up coin or jackpot wins. Just click “Stop” to halt one of the wheels and find out your prize.

To get closer to a jackpot win, the wheel needs to land on an arrow, rather than a coin win. You can see the 3 progressive jackpot totals increasing at the top of the reels all the time, and if one of the wheels lands on a corresponding jackpot, you will receive that amount paid out to you!

Mega Fortune has already made a few players exceptionally rich in its time online, including one in 2018. The gamer from Sweden tried his luck on the slot and had only made bets equating to €4.80 before he went on to scoop a huge progressive win of €3,773,845. In July of 2016, another player won a huge pay-out of €2,971,469 on the game.

Mega Fortune (Netent): Verdict

It’s clear that Mega Fortune has a lot going for it, not only in terms of its progressive jackpot amounts. It’s a truly entertaining game overall, too. Free spins will always be welcome in a slot, but Netent has made sure that this one multiplies any wins that you form in such a round as well. That just gives it an extra edge. Plus, with wild symbols also appearing throughout gameplay, Mega Fortune really does provide quite the appealing slot offering.

A maximum standard win in this game offers up 2162 times your your stake, which is possible via the free spins round. Should you manage to hit one of the progressive jackpots though, you could very well win much more than this. That’s one of the reasons why Mega Fortune has become one of the most popular progressive jackpot slots on the market. You never know what the next spin could bring you. To note, however, and to keep things realistic, your chance of landing the Mega Jackpot while in the bonus game is mathematically 0.00576% at max bet. We've seen worse odds than that, but just don't expect it to happen anytime soon.
