“Feed Me Fortunes” is a horror-comedy themed slot game developed by S Gaming. The game is set in a spooky laboratory backdrop, filled with scientific equipment and eerie contraptions. The main character is a ravenous, carnivorous plant, reminiscent of Audrey II from “Little Shop of Horrors.” Other characters include a mad scientist, whose caricature appears as one of the high-paying symbols.
Core Game and Mechanics
“Feed Me Fortunes” is a 5-reel, 3-row slot with 20 fixed paylines. The game offers multiple RTP variants: 92%, 93.5%, and 95.5%. Its volatility is described as low to medium, making it suitable for players who prefer more frequent, smaller wins.
The game's symbols include the mad scientist, a chainsaw, a cash register, a brain, and playing card symbols (A, J, Q) styled to fit the horror-comedy theme. The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols except Free Spin and Steak symbols, and only appears during feature and Free Spins gameplay.
The main mechanic revolves around feeding the carnivorous plant with Steak symbols that land on the reels. These Steak symbols can trigger one of three random features: Creeping Wilds, Infestation Mode, or Stick N' Win.
Bonus Features
- Creeping Wilds: This feature adds up to 5 locked banner Wilds on the screen and triggers a re-spin. The banner Wilds remain in place for the duration of the re-spin, potentially creating multiple winning combinations.
- Infestation Mode: When activated, this feature distributes 5 Wild plant symbols across the screen and triggers a re-spin. These Wild plants can substitute for other symbols, increasing the chances of forming winning paylines.
- Stick N' Win: In this feature, reel symbols are replaced with cash values. Non-zero cash values stick in place, and the reels continue to re-spin until each reel has at least one non-zero cash value or no new non-zero values are awarded after 3 consecutive re-spins. At the end of the feature, the total of all displayed cash values is awarded to the player.
- Free Spins: Triggered by landing 3 Free Spin scatter symbols on reels 2, 3, or 4, this feature awards 5 Free Spins. During these spins, players collect Steak symbols to fill a blood vial meter. The more Steaks collected, the more Sticky Wild symbols are awarded, up to a maximum of 15. These Sticky Wilds are then applied during 3 Re-spins awarded at the end of the Free Spins round.
- Invasion Mode: This mode activates after the initial 5 Free Spins. The collected blood from the Steak symbols is offered to the plant, rewarding the player with 3 extra spins and scattering Wilds onto the reels. These Invasion Wilds shift positions with each spin, creating dynamic winning opportunities.
An intriguing aspect of “Feed Me Fortunes” is its innovative use of the carnivorous plant theme to drive gameplay mechanics. The plant's hunger drives the bonus features, with players feeding it Steak symbols to trigger various Wild-based bonuses and fill the blood vial during Free Spins. This thematic integration of gameplay elements creates a cohesive and engaging slot experience, where players are constantly interacting with the game's central character – the hungry plant.
