Introduction to Fortune Stars
Fortune Stars is a casino slot from Endorphina where cute artists can generate some good wins! Let’s take the stage with Kitty, Money, and Wolfy, and play their corresponding Bonus Game. We have seen a similar music theme in games like Rockstar World Tour and Dr Rock & Riff Reactor, creating a rocking slot environment. While singing our heart out, we triggered the Wolfy Pick’Em Bonus Game, where potential wins up to 500X are up for grabs. With its sharp design and immersive theme, this release is sure to attract all those who dream of becoming a rock star. Let’s grab a microphone and discover what Fortune Stars has to offer!
Theme, Gameplay, & Payouts
Sloteus Gold is a video slot by Endorphina that features 5 reels, 3 rows, and 30 paylines. Players can select bet sizes ranging from 0.3 to 180, with a default RTP of 96.05%. This game has high volatility, a hit frequency of 37.04% and offers potential wins of up to 1,500X your bet. The high volatility should suit you if you are looking for less frequent wins, but when they do occur, they're usually substantial.
The game’s design is based on a music theme, where you take the stage together with cute rockstars! The 5X3 game grid takes place during a bumping concert with a purple backdrop. All buttons, including the Spin and Bet Size, can be found on the lower edge of the screen. You can play Fortune Stars on all mobile devices, desktops, and tablets. You create a winning combination by landing 3 or more of the same symbol types on adjacent reels starting at the leftmost reel.
The lower-paying symbols are a strawberry, a cherry, and a citrus. Landing 5 of the same symbol type pays 1X. The higher-paying symbols are an orange, a plum, grapes, and a watermelon. Landing 5 of the same symbol type pays between 10X and 40X.
The game’s Wild Symbol has the design of a microphone with the text “Wild”. It can appear on all reels except the first during the Base and Free Games. There is no traditional Scatter Symbol here; instead, the Token Symbol can trigger the Bonus Game. It comes in the shape of Likes, Stars, and Hearts, and can trigger the corresponding Bonus Game. Let’s find out what kind of features this game has to offer!

Kitty Free Games
This feature can be triggered by the Heart Token Symbol, awarding 24 Free Games. During the features, you can retrigger the Free Games, as well as trigger the Hold and Win and Pick Me Bonus.
While testing the game, we noticed a higher frequency of Wild and Token Symbols.
Monkey Hold and Win
This feature can be triggered by landing the Star Token Symbol, awarding 3 respins. Only blanks and Coin Symbols can land during the feature. Whenever a Coin Symbol lands, it gets locked in view, and the respins are reset to 3 again.
The Coin Symbol have values of 1X, 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, 6X, 7X, 8X, 9X, 10X, 15X, 20X, or 30X the bet. It can also land as the Min, Mid, and Max Jackpot with values of 50X, 100X, or 300X the bet, respectively. Filling the reels with Coin Symbols will award the Ultra Jackpot of 1,000X the bet.
When no more respins are left, you are awarded the total value of all Coin Symbols in view.
Wolfy Pick Me
This feature can be triggered by landing the Likes Token Symbol. You are presented with 20 microphones and must match three of the same symbol type to win the corresponding prize. The following prizes can be won: 5X, 6X, 7X, 8X, 9X, 10X, 12X, 15X, 50X, 100X, or 500X the bet.
Final Thoughts on Fortune Stars
“The best music is live music.” This quote comes from hip hop legend Jay Z, capturing the unmatched energy and atmosphere of a great concert. Here, we get a cute music theme from Endorphina, featuring three artists, Kitty, Monkey, and Wolfy, all singing their hearts out. I had a fun time testing this game, and the music theme works great as a slot environment. However, we were expecting a great soundtrack considering the theme, but the final choice feels surprisingly underwhelming.
In terms of gameplay, this game follows the same structure as the recent 3 Witch Pots, with minor changes to the sats and features. Otherwise, it offers a similar gaming experience, featuring sharp design and decent payouts. It works fine if you are looking for a game that includes three types of bonus games. But when it comes to innovation, Fortune Stars doesn’t offer anything new. We wish the provider had included a Wild Multiplier during the Base Game to make it more favorable and easier to boost wins.
In conclusion, we like the design of this game, even if it’s borderline juvenile. One thing we cannot let go of is how the provider didn’t spend more time on the soundtrack, considering the concert theme. When it comes to gameplay, we’ve seen it all before, but it still has moments worth testing.
Fortune Stars is a slot where you can step on stage and compete for wins up to 1,500X the bet!
