Fortune Tiger

Fortune Tiger theme, grid and mechanic

Nine cells on a 3x3 grid form the board of Fortune Tiger, a video slot with a Chinese theme and tiger imagery. A win pays when at least 3 matching symbols land on a winning bet line, so three is the fewest that pays. The seven symbols include gold ingots, jade dragon ornaments, red envelopes and firecrackers, plus the Wild that can stand in for the others. The game is built on line wins, with a respin feature on top.

An x10 multiplier applies when all 9 cells sit in a winning bet line, multiplying the round's total win by ten. The Fortune Tiger Feature can trigger at random while the reels spin. It picks one symbol, and each cell then shows only that symbol, a Wild or a blank. A match after the stop sends the reels to respin, with landed symbols locked.

Bonus features

Bonus features and the x10 Multiplier

Not sure when the bonus can start, or how its wins get paid out?

When does the respin start?

3x3 reels: the Fortune Tiger Feature can start at random on any spin. One symbol, Wild excluded, is chosen; each cell shows only that symbol, a Wild or a blank. One more chosen symbol or Wild after the stop triggers a respin with landed symbols locked, until no match appears.

Normal spinRespins and wins

Full-screen wins times ten

9 reel cells, every one in at least one winning bet line, trigger it on any spin, whether in the Fortune Tiger Feature or a base-game spin. The round's total win is then multiplied by x10, the mechanic behind the x2,500 maximum win.

Round guide

Before the reels stop, nothing is paid yet

Star Casino lays out each step plainly, so you know the rules before the first spin.

  1. A$0.15 against A$45

    A$0.15 to A$45 per spin is the full range of bets here, so you choose your stake before the first spin. The paytable on this page uses A$2.

  2. Nine cells against a single line

    3x3 grid, and three matching symbols on one winning line is the fewest that pays. Each win is paid in money at the bet you chose.

  3. Know when x10 applies

    x10 is the Multiplier: when every one of the 9 cells is part of a winning line, the round's total win is multiplied by x10, on any spin.

  4. Fortune Tiger Feature narrows every cell

    One symbol, excluding Wild, is chosen for the round when the Fortune Tiger Feature triggers on any spin. Every cell then shows that symbol, a Wild or a blank.

  5. When you want to stop

    1800 858 858 is the National Gambling Helpline. Set your limit before the first spin, and stop when you reach it, whatever the reels show.

Testing before you stake any money

Useful the moment you open the lobby and want a feel for the reels.

The demo needs no money and pays nothing, so it only shows how the game plays. The real game needs a Star Casino account and you must be 18+.

Play for real

Expect the Feature to come at random

96.81 is the long-run RTP, and it says nothing about one session. How often the Fortune Tiger Feature comes is not known in advance, because it can trigger at random on any spin while the reels still turn. Two players on the same 3x3 grid can end up with very different sessions. The result of your own session is random, whatever the RTP says.

96.81 RTP is listed for Fortune Tiger, but the version you get on Star Casino is shown only in the game rules. Read them before you play, since they state which version is in use.

x2,500 is the ceiling on Fortune Tiger, and at the highest bet of A$45 that means A$112,500. Players reach it very rarely, so treat it as a ceiling, not a target. The x10 Multiplier applies only when all nine cells are part of a winning line, which is the mechanic behind the cap.

Keep control of your session

Only players aged 18+ can play Fortune Tiger. Call the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858, or use BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.

Fortune Tiger budget first

A$0.15 is the lowest bet in Fortune Tiger, so set a session budget before the first spin. Keep to it, whatever shows on screen.

Set your stop point

A$45 is the top bet, and a win on Fortune Tiger is no reason to keep betting. Set the stop point before the session starts.

Before a long session

A$0.15 to A$45 is the full bet range, so set deposit and loss limits on the account before playing.

When the fun fades

96.81 is a long-run RTP, not a promise for any one session. When Fortune Tiger stops being fun, take a break or self-exclude through BetStop.
