As soon as you load the Fortune Finder slot you can tell that it is a bit different from other video slots. This is because straight away you have to choose one of three symbols to be the substitute. This is quite a unique feature and we have only seen it on a few other slot machines.
The game has a gold rush theme so the three substitutes are a Gold Nugget, a Diamond and a Ruby. All three always appear on the reels but only the one you select will be a substitute. This can make for some annoying spins especially if you get a five of a kind with the wrong wild. Still it does give you some extra input which is always an added bonus.
Interestingly enough there is no specific pay for five wilds. The highest line win on the pay table is 6,000 coins for five carts. This jackpot is followed by a 3,000 coin line win for five Gold Pans. Third highest line win is for the dynamite symbols which award 2,000 coins for five on an active line.
Speaking of max bet, Fortune Finder has a 600 coin max which equates to 20 coins per line. This means that the top jackpot at max bet grows to a big 120,000 coins during regular play. Like most video slots you do not have to play max bet to get all of the games features.
The Miner symbols are scattered. Getting five Miners pays a nice 100X your total bet or 60,000 coins if you are playing maximum bet. Getting three or more Miners activates the free spins bonus. Three scatters awards 15 free spins, four award 20 free spins and five pay 25 free games.
The free spins on Fortune Finder give you a shot at even bigger winnings as all pays are doubled. This boosts the top pay to a very nice 240,000 coins or between $2,400 and $60,000 depending on the coin size you play in (Coin sizes range from 1c to 25c). The free spins can be re-triggered an unlimited amount of times for big free game jackpots.
When we initially saw Fortune Finder we thought that it might be a clone of the popular Where's The Gold slot from Aristocrat. The theme is similar but the game does not have the same style of free spins. Still if you like Where's the Gold you will also enjoy Fortune Finder.
