Wall St Fever is a 5 reel, 5 line slot machine that is part of the Playtech progressive jackpot network. The base level jackpot starts at $1,500 and max bet is 50c (10c per line). As with all progressives you have to play maximum bet to have a shot at the jackpot.
Obviously the game has a stock market theme with related symbols such as stocks, briefcases, computers, bulls and money all appearing on the reels. The symbol to look for is the Wall St sign which is wild and also is the key to winning the progressive.
Line up five Wall St signs on any line with max bet and you win the progressive. If you play less than max bet this only pays 100,000 coins or $1,000. Seeing as the jackpot starts at $1,500 and has gone as high as $300,000+ it is clearly a good idea to play max bet.
Apart from the progressive the game also has two bonus features. The first bonus is a free spin feature. Get three, four or five of the crossing arrows and you win 5, 15 or 50 free spins. The free spins are played at the triggering bet level and if max bet is the triggering bet the jackpot can be won on the spins.
The second bonus is a pick a box style feature that is triggered by getting three or more of the zig zag symbols on any active line. This takes you to the bonus screen where you have to pick a stock. The market then moves and your prize is awarded. (View the Bonus Screenshot).
With a 50c max bet the average jackpot is just under $100,000 which is a fairly high bet to win ratio. There are not many online slots where a bet of less than a dollar can win you $100,000 or more. |
