Wins of Fortune Demo: How Winning Respins Grow the Grid

A stepped grid where winning symbols must touch

Reels 1 and 2 start three rows high, reels 3 and 4 four, reel 5 five. The help screen calls the pay rule connecting win ways: matching symbols in any position on three or more adjacent reels, counted from the leftmost. Its diagram ticks a chain whose symbols touch from reel to reel and crosses out one with a gap. The starting shape has 76 such ways.

The paytable was on screen at €2.00, and our €1.00 log pays exactly half of it. Five Monkey Kings or five monks pay €5.00 there, 2.5x the stake; the pig and the blue-skinned warrior pay €3.00 for five, and the five gems €2.00 to €2.50. The Wild substitutes for all symbols.

Each win slides left while the reels add rows

After a win the winning symbols move one position to the left and stay put, the grid gains rows, and the respin pays any new win before the next one starts. The first respin without a win ends the chain. In our log, symbols that had won on reel 1 had nowhere to go and left the grid.

Our server log records the shape at each step: rows of 3-4-4-5-5 on the first respin, 4-4-5-5-5 on the second, 4-5-5-5-5 on the third and the full 5x5 on the fourth.

Most chains were short. Of our 97 base wins, 40 got a single respin that paid nothing, 19 won once more, 17 twice and 13 three times.

Four winning respins in a row open the Super Respin

The fourth respin is already played on the full 5x5 grid, but a full grid is not the trigger: that fourth respin has to win. Then every winning symbol stays where it is, the game respins until no additional winning symbols land, and each respin pays again, locked winners included.

Our media spin with that grid stopped after 4 respins. In our log 21 chains reached the 5x5 grid and 8 won the fourth respin; of those Super Respins, 5 ended after one respin, 2 ran two and 1 ran three. On media spin 89 the chain lasted 6 respins, more than the four growing ones, so by our reading of the session data it went into the Super Respin; on that spin a red and gold border framed the grid.

Spin 95 of our log, the session best, shows the whole climb: 0.4x from the base win, then 1.2x, 1.5x, 2.4x and 3x as the grid grew, and 12.5x, 25x and 25x in the Super Respin, the last a repeat of the locked set with nothing new added, 71x in all.

The four growing respins paid most of our return

The session behind these figures ran 500 spins at €1.00 on 24 Oct 2026 and returned 76.5%; something paid on 19.4% of spins, and every one of those 97 wins went into respins. Base wins brought back 20% of the money, the four growing respins 57% and the Super Respin 23%.

Quickspin's sheet credits the Super Respin with 38.16% of the 96.54% total; ours paid 17.3% of the stake, yet 5 of our 12 wins of 10x or more came on those 8 spins. None reached the 100x the sheet expects once in 1,470 spins, and the session closed at its lowest balance on spin 500. The demo server runs 96.54%, the only model on the sheet.

Next to Sakura Fortune and Sticky Bandits from the same year

Sakura Fortune came out in April 2017, rates 4.83 for volatility and expects 100x once in 876 spins, against 1,470 here; its largest simulated win is 1,182.5x.

Sticky Bandits followed in August 2017 with a largest simulated win of 968.33x. Wins of Fortune's 1,253.9x is the highest such figure among the three games from 2017 reviewed here.

Any win can grow here, with no scatter hunt in between; the cost is that two in five chains stop at the first respin and only 8 of our 500 spins saw the Super Respin. In our log most of the money came from the middle rungs of the ladder.
