Wheel of Wealth (Microgaming) – Review & Demo Play

Wheel of Wealth: Slot Overview

As a no frills classic slot from Microgaming, Wheel of Wealth runs a standard 3-reel, 1 pay line setup with a $1 coin value and the option to wager one to three coins. There’s no distinguishable theme beyond the slot machine face and pay table, so the draw is the straightforward maths and the bonus. With a maximum payout of 5,000 coins on a max wager, you’re looking at pub-style play rather than big hits. The saving grace is the wild symbol and a wheel of fortune style bonus feature.

Wheel of Wealth: Slot Features

I rate the paytable for being clear. Any one cherry pays 3x, any two cherries 6x, three cherries 12x. Any three bars pay 18x, while three single bars pay 30x, three double bars 120x, and three triple bars 240x. Three high paying Wheel of Wealth symbols on the line award 5,000x. The logo also works as a wild, carrying the same top value. It plugs gaps to complete a win, and it’s the only symbol that changes the maths with multipliers when it lands as part of a combo.

One wild on a winning spin doubles the payout, while two wilds on a winning spin multiply it by 4x. Land the wild anywhere on the third reel and you’re off to the bonus, but you need to have played three coins on that spin to qualify. On the separate screen you get one chance to spin the wheel of fortune for an instant cash prize, capped at 1,000. It’s a single shot, so timing max coins when you’re chasing the feature matters.

Wheel of Wealth: Slot Verdict

It’s not like the bonus is going to rock my world, yet it’s always nice to encounter a 3-reel that offers some type of bonus feature. The payouts and rather mundane looking game face make it hard to get excited for long sessions, and it’s hard to imagine many punters risking hard-earned money here when bigger games are a click away. That said, if you fancy pub-style spins with a simple wheel shot and wild multipliers, Wheel of Wealth does exactly that without fuss.
