Bad puns occasionally make good titles for online slots and that’s the case with this Lightning Box release; Fortune 8 Cat could also be read as ‘fortunate cat’ or indeed shortened to ‘lucky cat’ and when we get to that point we’re getting ever closer to talking about the Maneki Neko, the famous waving plastic or porcelain moggy you will see on the counter of every Chinese restaurant in the UK.
Fortune 8 Cat has a definite Chinese theme to it and it’s played out over five reels; there are 1024 ways to win and that’s because there are no payline structures here. To win all you need to do is match symbols on adjacent reels starting from the left hand side.
More Chinese-themed make up the majority of the main symbols and include a jade tortoise, a Koi carp, a golden frog and a prancing dragon. The wild symbol is represented by an 888 icon (an auspicious Chinese number) and the feature is triggered by landing three or more of the Chinese crackers anywhere on the reels.
Bonus Features
Free Spins
The only bonus feature in this slot is the free spins and there’s up to twenty of them available if you can land three, four or five of them anywhere on the reels.
Now the Maneki Neko makes an appearance and a random number will be added to reels two, three, four and five. They will act as wild symbols alongside the 888 symbol which means there are more wilds in the free spins than in the base game.
Fortune 8 Cat Online Slot Playing Tips
With the 1024 ways to win there’s very little interaction for the player to engage in and so any there’s very little advice we can offer. Just click Autoplay and enjoy the game!
Verdict
The free spins and the well-drawn Maneki Neko are the only reasons to play this slightly run of the mill slot. If you do play it and suddenly feel like ordering a Chinese takeaway, don’t blame us.
