Wheel of Chance 3 reel was such a success that Wager Gaming Technology decided to roll the dice and turn out Wheel of Chance 5 Reel version. This bigger crowd pleaser has a solid 20 paylines, which translates into many more ways to win. The symbols are much more colorful and invested, too, and include such icons as the Poker game symbols (just the higher jackets), a Yacht, Pretty Girl, Rich Man, Car, Beach Ball, Cash and others. It is very reminiscent of the standard slot machines that you’d find in a land based casino like Atlantic City or even Las Vegas.
The differences between the 3 reel and the 5 reel versions of Wheel of Chance slots are significant. There are 8000 coins to be had for the biggest win here; and you can bet between one penny and $200 as your max bet. Somewhere, with the right alignment of symbols, there’s a 500x Multiplier symbol waiting for you, too, so you’re going to want to get your hands on that. The paytable will show you all you need to know about the symbol combinations that lead to the desired wins. Here, the Wild is the Diamond symbol; it can assume the position of any other symbols except for the Scatter, which we’ll cover shortly. When it replaces symbols, it doubles any associated payouts after completing the winning combination.
The Scatter symbol, although it can’t be substituted by the Wild Diamond, has its very own special abilities. In fact, the Scatter is also known as the Free Spins symbol (in Wheel of Chance Slots, anyway) because it brings up to 20 Free Spins with which to extend your gaming streak. It cannot land on an active payline, however; it must land on the other lines to return good results. If the former, then it is treated as a harmless, regular symbol and you may need to depend on the Wild to bring the gifts for which the slot is so well-known. By the way, the Scatter is represented by the Female Host (Hostess in some versions of the game).
Lastly, the Bonus Game is a good one; you need to get lucky with the Wheel of Chance symbol appearing on the 2nd and the 4th reels in order to activate it. This will have a new reel emerge from nowhere and bring with it more prizes if the game goes your way. Come on in and see what Wheel of Chance 5 Reel Slot has to offer; just download the software, sign up and head to the lobby to play for real money.
