Fortunes of the Caribbean has a tropical feel
 
WMS Gaming has announced the launch of a new online slot branded Fortunes of the Caribbean on its Jackpot Party.com online casino.
 
In this dramatic Moneyburst-style game, players can collect gold shell Scatter symbols which trigger features; find Wild palm symbols and win awards, even claiming 60 lines at half price, according to a company statement.
 
The graphics carry a tropical island theme replete with steel pan calypso music, exotic fruit, flowers and marine life, and a rewarding feature that triggers in three different ways:
 
In the first of these, landing the same symbol in the first 2 reel columns, plus 3 scattered gold shells on reels 3, 4 and 5 awards 20 free spins. The 4 symbols in the first 2 reel columns are held, in addition to 1 Wild reel on either reel 3, 4 or 5 appearing with 1 random wild symbol on the other 2 reels for every spin.
 
Alternatively, landing the same symbol in the first 2 reel columns will award the player 5 free spins with the 4 symbols held.
 
Finally, 3 scattered gold shells on reels 3, 4 and 5 awards 5 free spins with 1 Wild reel on either reel 3, 4 or 5 and 1 random wild symbol on the other 2 reels for every spin.
 
The game, which has been developed for online use from a popular offline slot, also links in to a progressive jackpot.
