88 Fortunes is a progressive jackpot slot brought to you by Bally Technologies. This game is played on a grid that has five reels and three rows. There are also up to 243 ways to win with this slot. This game has a Chinese theme, just as Imperial Dragon does.
On the reels, we have symbols such as golden turtles, golden eagles, golden ships and golden gongs as well as playing cards Ace through Nine. Of these, the golden eagle is the highest value symbol with five of them on a pay line rewarding up to a 1,000x pay out. This being a jackpot slot, it comes with a Fu Bat Jackpot feature.

How To Play 88 Fortunes
How to Set Your Stake
88 Fortunes players are able to adjust the amount that they wish to stake on each spin by using the little plus and minus buttons that are on display either side of bet amount. By hitting the minus, they will be reducing the cost, and by hitting the plus button they will be raising it.
How to Spin the Reels
In order to complete a full rotation of the reels, players simply need to click on the spin button. This is red and marked with a golden triangle play symbol. You can find this in the bottom right hand corner of the screen.
88 Fortunes Bonus Features
In China, the word Fu means happiness, but it is also their word for bat too. For that reason, this game employs a Bat Fu special feature. When all five golden symbols are active, one of four fixed jackpots can be rewarded. It works like this; you will be offered the choice of twelve coins, each revealing a baby. You will be looking to match three baby symbols that all correlate to one of four different fixed jackpots, mini, minor, major or grand.
There is also a Free Games feature which is triggered by landing three or more Gong scatters starting from the first reel. When this happens, you could win ten free spins. Better still, during the bonus rounds, the lower paying symbols of the game – nine, ten, jack, queen, king and ace – are switched out for the five higher paying ones. Unlimited additional free spins can also be earned, and the Fu Bat symbols can still land meaning the chance to scoop the jackpot still stands.
