Tundra’s Fortune Slot Review 2024

Pragmatic Play is taking us back to the Ice Age for an arctic adventure, in Tundra’s Fortune!

Grab yourself a loincloth and become part of the pack in Tundra’s Fortune, where a 6×4 Honeycomb-style grid with a variety of extinct animals presents itself.

Play alongside a chipper Caveman who clearly has a thing for the beautiful Cavewoman who appears on all Wild symbols. Get in on the action by landing 3 or more Scatters in order to enter Free Spins, where Wilds will always land with a Multiplier of up to x5!

Ante Bet

Before you can begin spinning, you will be given the option to activate the Ante Bet feature. Choosing to activate this feature will increase your current bet by 25%. Once active, your chances of triggering the Free Spins round are naturally higher. (RTP 96.06%)

Tundra’s Fortune Free Spins

Landing 3, 4, 5, or 6 Scatters in the base game triggers the Free Spins round, awarding 8, 15, 20, and 40 Free Spins and a payout of 1x, 5x, 50x, and 500x your bet respectively.

During Free Spins, all Wild symbols that land will generate a random Multiplier Value of x2, x3, x4, or x5. This Multiplier is then applied to all wins that contain that Wild.

If there is more than 1 Wild involved in the same win, their Multiplier values will multiply each other and then apply to the win. Landing 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 Scatters during this time will award an additional +5, +8, +15, +20, and +40 Free Spins respectively.

Tundra’s Fortune: Our Verdict

Tundra’s Fortune looks promising when you first load up the game, with an interesting Honeycomb grid layout and hexagonal ways to win. As you spin the reels, you begin to realize that gameplay isn’t quite as good as the design and theme.

During the base game, Wild symbols appear frequently, dotted around the grid, and occasionally stacked, but that’s about as interesting as the base game gets, unfortunately.

If you are lucky enough to have access to the Ante Bet feature, activating this will enhance your chances of triggering Free Spins. If you don’t usually play with Ante Bets, you may want to make an exception here considering there is no Bonus Buy option to take advantage of.

During Free Spins, Wild symbols are equipped with Multipliers of up to x5. This change may not have been significant to us if there was more on offer, but we’re grateful for it considering this is the only feature available.

It’s disheartening when Pragmatic Play finally strays from their usual 5,000x max win safety net and into the arms of 12,500x, yet fails to deliver in terms of gameplay.

All in all, Tundra’s Fortune may not be the full package, but don’t let that deter you from giving it a good go for your chance to bag the 12,500x max win cap!
