Fortunes of Aztec Slot Review 2024

Get ready to explore ancient structures and unearth forgotten artifacts in Pragmatic Play’s latest release, Fortunes of Aztec!

As you venture out in search of lost treasures, set your sights on Tumbling symbols, Free Spins, and a Win Multiplier that activates in an unusual way.

On par with Egyptian slots, the Aztec theme is one that we’ve encountered many times over from numerous Providers, but it’s one that has popped up in a number of Pragmatic Play titles before this.

Does Fortunes of Aztec have what it takes to stand out against the many? Let’s play on and find out!

Fortunes of Aztec Base Game and Features

Fortunes of Aztec is a 6-reel Video slot with 4,096 ways to win. Winning combinations are formed when 3 or more of the same symbols land from left to right, starting from the leftmost reel.

The minimum bet available here is £.€0.20 per spin and the maximum bet available is £.€240 per spin, with plenty of other options in between the two. This game has a theoretical RTP of 96.42% and a max win cap of 10,000x.

In terms of symbols, the highest-paying regular symbol here is the Gold Mask, followed by the Pink and Green Masks, and Blue Fish. Low-paying symbols are standard Ace, King, Queen, Jack, Ten, and Nine. Wilds appear only on reels 3, 4, 5, and 6, substituting for all other symbols except Scatters.

Each time a winning combination forms, all winning symbols will be removed from the reels, making room for new symbols to drop down from above via a Tumble feature.

Win Multiplier

During gameplay, whenever all symbols from an entire reel are removed as part of a winning Tumble, a Win Multiplier will activate, starting at x1 and increasing by +x1.

At the end of any spin with an active Win Multiplier, the collected Win Multiplier will be applied to the total win for that particular spin. With the next spin, the Win Multiplier will be reset back to x1 for future spins.

Fortunes of Aztec Free Spins

Landing 3, 4, 5, or 6 Scatters across the reels in the base game triggers the Free Spins round, awarding 12, 15, 20, and 25 Free Spins respectively. The Win Multiplier (if applicable) from the base game will be automatically carried over to Free Spins.

During Free Spins, the Win Multiplier will increase by +x1 each time an entire reel of symbols is wiped out and does not reset between Free Spins.

Landing 3, 4, 5, or 6 Scatters during this time will award an additional +5, +7, +10, and +12 Free Spins respectively.

Fortunes of Aztec Bonus Buy

Those outside the UK will benefit from a Bonus Buy option. Pragmatic Play has granted players access to the Free Spins round for a total cost of 100x your bet. (RTP 96.52%)

Fortunes of Aztec: Our Verdict

Fortunes of Aztec looks exactly how we envisioned it. Ancient ruins, waterfalls, and a number of Aztec symbols are all present and accounted for, but what did we make of gameplay?

Fortunes of Aztec isn’t just visually pleasing, but it also grabs our attention in both the base game and Free Spins round thanks to the Win Multiplier feature.

The idea of having to clear an entire reel of symbols in order to activate or increase the Win Multiplier seems a little unreasonable, but you would be surprised by how often it occurs. This feature is only heightened in Free Spins, where the Win Multiplier does not reset between spins.

The Win Multiplier feature, topped off with a max win cap of 10,000x makes Fortunes of Aztec a promising choice for players looking for more than just a bit of fun!
