NetEnt has released a new online slot game, Codex of Fortune, which I missed completely.
Why did I miss this release? Well because the game looks exactly like another release from NetEnt, Turn your Fortune. The game looks identical.
So what is this new game? Well it is the same game as Turn your Fortune but NetEnt made a couple of small changes and made the payout more interesting.
Codex of Fortune comes with 40 lines on 5 reels, each 4 symbols high. All symbols, except scatter, may appear stacked on all reels.
Fortune Re-spins
When 2 scatter symbols appear and you also have a winning combination of normal symbols, you will trigger a re-spin feature. all non-winning symbols are removed while one symbol is picked as special symbol. These symbols will stay on the reels and all reels re-spin with only blank spaces and the special symbol. All symbols will become sticky and also be collected. Every 5 symbols collected will increase the cash reward on the left of the reels, which will be awarded when no new symbols appear.
Free Spins Feature
Get all three scatter symbols on reels 1, 3, and 5 to trigger the free spins feature. You will win between 7 and 13 free spins, a random symbol is also chosen.
During free spins all special symbols will be collected during free spins and each time you have collected 20, you will increase the level and earn a bigger cash reward.
Any scatter symbol appearing during free spins will add 1 more free spin.
Verdict
This new game is almost the same as the original, which I find odd. It really doesn’t bring anything new, except for a couple of small tweaks and the re-spin bonus is new. Which is a nice addition by the way.
I thought it would be less confusing if they just updated the original and called it 2.0 or something.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s a very nice game and can pay out even bigger than before, but I don’t get the decision for this release.
Check out Codex of Fortune at any NetEnt casino.
