GLISTENING GOLD AWAITS WITH BTG’S GIFT OF FORTUNE™ SLOT

New slot from BTG promises to bestow an avalanche of little red packets this Chinese New Year
Celebrate Chinese New Year in style this January with Big Time Gaming’s opulent Gifts of Fortune™. This highly volatile Megaways slot will make its highly auspicious debut on January 11 on the Evolution Network, before rolling out on general release a week later in time for the Lunar New Year on January 22.
This is a game brimming with little red packets, the monetary gifts Chinese people traditionally exchange to bestow fortune and prosperity at this time of year. In fact, little red packet symbols act as Wild and hit the reels with every spin. When they appear alongside Feng Shui coins, you’re looking at a prize multiplier of up to x10 in the base game. Bestowing is great, but sometimes you’ve got to bestow a little fortune and prosperity on yourself, and there’s plenty of opportunity to that in Gifts of Fortune™. Because this is a Megaways game, there are up to up to 117,649 ways to win!
But BTG have packed in a lot more goodies, such as Bonus Buy, where you purchase 10 Free Spins for 70 times stake or purchase 10 Enhanced Free Spins for 200 times stake. And there’s also Win Exchange, where you can swap your win for the chance to be awarded 10 Free Spins. Reveal three glimmering gold ingot Scatters to enter the heavenly purple realm of the Free Spins Round. Here, you get 10 Free Spins, plus two additional spins for each Scatter beyond the third.
The pot multiplier starts at x1 and increases by one for every Wild red packet the occurs. Find three or more Scatters to award four additional Free Spins, plus two for each Scatter beyond the third.
Further wealth awaits those who uncover the Megascatter as one of the triggering Scatters, as they enter the realm of Enhanced Free Spins. Here, at least one Wild red packet is guaranteed to appear in every Free Spin.
Todd Haushalter, Chief Product Officer at Evolution said: “It’s always an honour when we get to debut a new BTG slot. After all, these are the people that gave the world Megaways™ and so many other revolutionary mechanics that changed the way we thought about gaming. Gift of Fortune™ is a real crowd-pleaser, a gorgeous game with so many features packed in.”
Nik Robinson, BTG Chief Executive Officer, said: “Games that explore ideas of fortune and prosperity in Chinese culture are a genre unto themselves, but seldom do they come with so many explosive features and inventive mechanics. Gifts of Fortune is a game that turns the genre on its head, and we know our players are going to love it. So, we’d like to wish them all a very Happy Chinese New Year. And remember, good things come in little red packets!”
