How To Play Wheel of Fortune Hawaiian Getaway Mobile Slot
What does the Wheel of Fortune brand have to do with Hawaii? Well, for one, there’s this Wheel of Fortune Hawaiian Getaway slot which brings the exotic to the big wheel game.
Honestly, there are so many Wheel of Fortune slots by the game studios IGT, we don’t know how they keep coming up with the new themes.
At least the Wheel of Fortune on Tour slot had some history on the original game show, but we couldn’t find any particular connection other than Hawaii is in the USA?
This is a sunny Summer slot that has more to do with Hawaii than Wheel of Fortune. In fact, with its 1950s postcards, pretty flowers and palm trees, you could pretend this isn’t a Wheel of Fortune casino game and be fine.
What makes this Hawaiian Getaway different from other Wheel of Fortune slots?
Other than the gentle surf of Waikiki, it’s the Big Kahuna Respin feature that will either keep you spinning or make you walk away quickly.
Mostly because it’s one of the only ways to catch some decent wins in the base game in this slot game.
What happens is that any 3 reels that are fully covered by the same symbols will give you a massive symbol and a further re-spin with a random multiplier.
If you can get another reel of symbols, you get another re-spin, till you can get that jumbo symbol to take over the whole 5 reels and 3 rows, giving you multiple 5 of a kind wins over all 25 paylines.
Add a good multiplier of 3x or 5x and you could be heading to Hawaii yourself for a getaway at the end of the round. Certainly more likely than if spinning on Aloha Cluster Pays slot by NetEnt .
This Wheel of Fortune Hawaiian Getaway slot is hard to love
Much like the steaming lava fields of Mauna Loa, you can appreciate the splendours within this tropical paradise, and yet still feel like you’ve been burnt.
And that’s because whilst the jumbo symbol and re-spin can pay out big, it’s frustrating how hard it is to get the actual Wheel of Fortune bonus.
To be honest, when you do catch it, it’s hard not to be disappointed because mostly you get maybe a little cash prize and nothing more – unlike Wheel of Fortune Ultra 5 Reels game.
Of course, the point is to try and get the jackpot and 1,000 times your bet. But you don’t. You rarely even get the free spins, which is just a nice break on your wallet, as it’s 10 spins with nothing else added.
Do we recommend you play the Wheel of Fortune Hawaiian Getaway mobile slot? For the Big Kahuna Respin feature and the cool nostalgic feel, absolutely. But we wouldn’t spend the whole evening here.
