Review of Wheel of Fortune Triple Action
Wheel of Fortune, Triple Action Frenzy online slot is a sequel to the original TV show based “Wheel of Fortune” games show, and is brought to us once again by IGT.
Slot Theme
Following in the boots of its predecessor, this slot remains faithful to America’s biggest game show, “The Wheel of Fortune”. In this game you become a contestant, who will want desperately to unlock the famous spinning wheel and boost your pocket prizes. This game, however, comes with three reels instead of just one - That is real triple action frenzied fun.
Symbols and Soundtrack
That unmistakable 80’s style show theme tune is evident to create the original big win atmosphere that may bring back many nostalgic memories of your youth. So, turn up the volume, close your eyes, and you could swear that you were on set.
The reel symbols include great prizes that will transform into monetary value for your benefit. Higher paying icons include a “Wheel of Fortune” icon, three various contestants, a cruise ship, shiny red sports car, and a tropical island paradise. Lower values are made up by various fruits such as grapes, oranges, lemons and cherries. These are very traditional online casino slot icons.
Other exciting symbols that you will want to see regularly on the screen include: The Super Wild, which can multiple wins up to 5X the normal payout value; and the Triple Action Bonus symbol, which has part to play in triggering the bonus feature for this online slot.
Bonus Features
There is one main feature to this game, with some side online bonus action available in normal game playing mode too.
Triple Action Bonus Feature
To activate this especially lucrative round, you will need to land the ‘Triple Action Bonus’ symbol on an active payline on reels 1, 2, and 3. This game consists of two stages.
- Stage 1 - This involves a game in which you need to complete three words that appear in part on the screen. You will need to select from the tiles below in hopes of finding the missing letters above. For each letter correctly found, the multiplier attributed to that word will increase for the benefit of stage 2. Once you find the wheel pointer, you will move on to stage 2 with your 3 accumulated multipliers.
- Stage 2 - You will see three “Wheels of Fortune”, each with random cash amounts on them. Attached to each wheel is the multiplier amount from the corresponding coloured word from stage 1. Give the wheels a spin and hold thumbs that the pointers land on large amounts. Whatever amounts are selected, that figure will be multiplied by the pre-selected multipliers attributed to each wheel, granting you a sizable jackpot for your purse.
Super Wild Icon
Should you land one of these on the middle reel during normal game play, you will be able to choose between 5 envelopes, each holding a mystery multiplier (2X, 3X or 5X), which will be applied to any win for that specific spin.
Gamble Feature
At any time in the game after a win, you will be able to select the ‘gamble’ feature, which could end up doubling your last win. Once you click on the Gamble button, you will need to select either black or red. Once you have done this, you will need to spin a mini-wheel. If the pointer lands on the colour you chose, you will double your last win. Should you get it wrong, you will lose your last win. You can spin a maximum of 5 times.
Summary
This IGT online slot offers a great array of fun, especially within the bonus feature. I would suggest this game to anyone wanting classic fun. For those who loved the show, this slot is a must spin.
