Fortunes Rising (Skywind) – Review & Demo Play

Fortunes Rising Slot RTP, Details & Wager Limits

I’ve played Fortunes Rising from Skywind since its 2022 release, and the numbers suit a broad stake plan. Stakes range from 20p up to £300 per spin, set with simple plus and minus controls. The slot runs on 5 reels and 3 rows with 243 ways to win active in the base game. All wins pay from left to right. Autoplay and turbo options sit to the right of the reels if you’re outside the UK, which keeps the pace brisk when I want longer sessions.

RTP sits at 96.5%, which is solid for this maker. Volatility is high, rated 4 out of 5, so stretches without hits can happen, then a cluster of pays lands together. The maximum win is 5,000x stake, most likely in the feature when the reel set expands. It feels like a balanced maths model to me, with base play offering enough line hits to keep the pot steady, and the feature carrying the real punch when the ways can climb.

Theme & Story in Fortunes Rising

Fortunes Rising carries a Far Eastern theme set high in the mountains of Asia, with temples and red-gold trims framing the reels. The visuals are clear and bold, and the audio leans on a pleasant, traditional soundtrack that fits the scene. On the reels, golden animals and colourful royals take centre stage, and the overall look feels polished without clutter. I like how the game holds attention without overcomplicating the screen, which helps when the grid expands in the feature.

Fortunes Rising Symbols and Paytable

Low-paying symbols are the 9 through A royals. In the paytable they return 0.05x, 0.1x, or 0.5x stake for 3, 4, or 5 of a kind. As this is an all ways game, winning combinations pay in any position from left to right across adjacent reels. With 243 ways active in the base game, these smaller hits keep things ticking while you wait on improved setups. They appear often in my experience, pairing well with wilds to nudge up line totals.

The higher-paying set features golden animals. The monkey pays 0.1x, 0.25x, or 1x for 3, 4, or 5. The bird pays 0.25x, 0.5x, or 2.5x. The bear pays 0.4x, 0.75x, or 3.75x. The deer pays 0.5x, 1x, or 5x. The tiger leads with 1x, 2x, or 8x for 3 to 5 of a kind. These values line up with the high volatility tag, so single-line spikes are meaningful, especially once the reels widen during free games.

The Scatter is the drum. It pays 2.5x, 10x, or 50x for 3, 4, or 5 and triggers the Fortunes Rising feature when three or more land on consecutive reels from the left. The Wild is a Chinese symbol that substitutes for all regular symbols and appears on reels 2, 3, and 4 only. Wilds matter twice here, as they can also be part of the Bao Tree mechanic in the base game.

Fortunes Rising Bonus Features

The Bao Tree feature is a pick and win game that can trigger when one or more Wilds land on reels 2, 3, or 4. You see 12 coins and pick until three matching symbols appear. Prizes are fixed at 10x for Mini, 20x for Minor, 100x for Major, and 1,000x for Grand. It’s a tidy interlude that drops at random, and hitting Major or Grand adds a proper lift to a session without needing free games.

Land 3 or more Scatters from left to right to trigger the Fortunes Rising feature. You choose from 15 free games on a 3x5 grid, 10 on 4x5, 5 on 5x5, 3 on 6x5, or a Mystery pick. The bigger the grid, the fewer spins, but ways can reach 7,776. During free games, landing 3 or more Scatters awards more spins equal to the initial choice. This is where I’ve seen the game’s best stretches.

Fortunes Rising Mobile

Fortunes Rising runs on HTML5, so it plays well on mobile, tablet, laptop, and desktop. The 5x3 layout feels tidy on phones, with controls responsive and easy to reach. I prefer desktop when the free games switch to wider reel sets, as the 5x5 and 6x5 grids breathe better on a larger screen. Either way, performance is stable and the art holds its clarity, so sessions on the go are straightforward.

Fortunes Rising Review Summary

Fortunes Rising doesn’t crowd the feature list, yet the two mechanics on offer do the heavy lifting. The Bao Tree pick game adds steady variety, while the Fortunes Rising free games bring up to 7,776 ways to win and the strongest hit rate for 5,000x potential. RTP at 96.5% and high volatility suit a patient style, and the visuals and soundtrack round it off nicely. I’ve had most of my better returns in the expanded-grid options.
