The setup of the reels in Wheel of Fortune Ultra 5 Reels is pretty simple - don't expect too many flourishes on the visuals front. That's not really that important given the theme though and the graphics are perfectly acceptable. Look out for gemstone encrusted cherries, oranges, pears, grapes and four different coloured 7s. Payouts of up to 400 coins are on offer here. What's more important of course are the features.
First up is the Wild Multiplier symbol - there's a standard wild which substitutes for everything bar the bonus symbols. If it forms part of a winning combination, it will transform into a 2x, 3x, 4x or 5x multiplier wild. It's possible to combine these wilds and create a potentially massive 25x multiplier if they land in concert. There's also a special 5x wild which does just what you'd expect it to - replacing the standard symbols and boosting the payline by 5x.
Land 3 or more of the scatter wheel symbols to trigger the Scatter Wheels feature - each symbol will then transform into a mini wheel which will then spin. Wherever the pointer lands will earn you a cash bonus of that amount - the wheel totals are combined to award your bonus payout.
Land the Ultra Reel Bonus symbol on the middle 3 reels to trigger the Ultra Wheel Bonus feature - spin the wheels to see which ones will be active, active with a multiplier or inactive. The smallest third reel can deliver prizes of between 2x and 10x your stake. Wheel 2 offers between 3x and 50x your time. Best of all is the big wheel where bonuses of between 5x and 200x your stake can be won.
If a multiplier is live on 1 of the wheels, you can boost your wins still further. Spin the wheel to reveal a multiplier of 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x or even 10x. This means you could potentially win 2,000 times your stake if you’re lucky!
One thing you'll notice is that there aren't any free spins on offer here - we expected that to be a big drawback but the other features hit often enough that we barely noticed.
The wild multiplier keeps things interesting in the base game and the scatter reels can offer some tidy boosts. The big attraction is the Ultra Reel Bonus though. Get the big wheel active with a multiplier and some spectacular results are possible. If you like slot games that are based on TV shows, there’s plenty about with Microgaming’s Game of Thrones a very good choice.
