Double Fortune (PG Soft) Slot Demo & Review

Another slot coming off the factory line at PG Soft is Double Fortune. The firm has created countless Asian-themed slots over the years, and this is another worth checking out. As the name suggests, the theme concentrates on China’s superstitious views of luck. The Chinese culture has long thought of many numbers as lucky or unlucky, that stairs should always have an even number of steps to bring good fortune, and a home should never point north if you want to avoid bad luck. Even moustaches are seen as bad luck, while it is also believed pointing at the moon will result in an ear falling off. Superstitions also say that luck comes in pairs, which is probably the whole point behind the Double Fortune slot. It is certainly behind the key selling point of this 5×3 slot with 30 paylines, a 96.22% RTP, and a 10,000x max win.

That selling point I just touched upon is the Double symbols that can land on the reels in both the base game and the free spins bonus. That interesting double mechanic could create winning combinations as big as 10 symbols in size despite only having 5 reels. However, it’s not just the Double Symbols that will appeal, as the free spins bonus gives you two sets of reels and the possibility of having 8x multipliers applied to your wins.

If you like what you’ve read so far, you might want to check out the Double Fortune slot demo below. You can spin away for free, experience the bonus features, and get in some practice before playing the slot for real money.

I’m not sure I believe in luck myself, but maybe that’s because I never get much of it. I could have somebody all in while holding the better poker hand, and my opponent would magically hit a one outer. I could back a horse winning down the final straight before falling over. The list goes on; I’m just not lucky at all – either that or I did something bad in a previous life. Anyhow, enough of my bad beats in life. If you’re the type that believes in luck, you’re not short of slots to play that are themed on it. Red Tiger Gaming’s Dragons Luck Megaways is one example, whilst the Ladybug Luck slot from Pragmatic Play and Mascot Gaming’s Piggy Luck are just a few of hundreds of luck-themed slots you can enjoy.

If you think good luck might strike in your direction, Double Fortune might be the slot it arrives in. The reels contain 11 symbols, with 9 being regular-paying symbols, while the Scatter and Wild symbols are the remaining symbols. The Wild will bring the best rewards, as it can pay up to 1,000x the bet. The Ring, Red Envelope, Shoe, and Fortune Cookie are the high-paying regular symbols with payouts of up to 500x, 400x, 333x, and 266x, respectively. The Ace and King will pay up to 166x, and the Queen and Jack could reward up to 100x. Those payouts might seem high for a 5-reel slot, but you’ll learn why they rise that high shortly.

Before that, I better clarify the staking options when playing the Double Fortune online slot. The cheapest spin possible costs €0.90, whilst high rollers can wager up to €260.00. It should be pointed out these bet sizes have been taken from the demo play version of Double Fortune, and the real money game will likely feature very different values.


Double Fortune Slot Base Game & Modifiers

Double Fortune Base Game

As you probably expect, you earn payouts when three or more matching symbols land on consecutive reels across one of the 30 active paylines. However, you’re probably not expecting the double symbols that will count as two symbols when they land. Those symbols mean creating up to 10-symbol combinations is possible if you land five double symbols across a payline. That is why the symbol combination payouts are as high as they are.


Double Symbols

All the regular paying symbols and the Wild symbol can appear as single or double symbols on the reels. If double, they represent two of the same symbol. This makes it easier to create winning combinations while also allowing you to create combinations as big as 10 symbols in size.


Wild Symbols

The single-sized wild symbol substitutes for all other single-sized symbols when it can create a winning combination. The Double Wild goes one better as it can substitute for all other regular symbols, whether single or double.


Double Fortune Slot Bonus Features

Scatter symbols can land on reels 2, 3, and 4, and if you land all 3 on any spin, you’ll trigger the bonus round and be awarded 8 free spins.


Free Spins Feature

If you thought this would be a regular free spins bonus, you’re mistaken. You get 8 free spins on a double set of 5×3 reels. If both reels land a winning combination simultaneously, all wins have an 8x multiplier applied. Furthermore, you receive an additional free spin each time a scatter symbol lands on either set of reels.


Pros

  • The base game is not the bore-fest found on many other slots.
  • A solid RTP and an even more impressive 25,000x max win.

Cons

  • I am not convinced with the claimed medium variance. I’d class ASGardian Rising in the high volatility category.

Double Fortune Slot Review Final Thoughts

I have to say that I like the creativity in terms of the double symbols in PG Soft's Double Fortune slot, and the free spins bonus also mixes things up by giving you two reel sets and the possibility of receiving 8x multipliers for your wins. Make sure you give this one a try if you're into your Asian themed slots, you'll likely enjoy it.
