DoubleDown Casino, the social gaming website of leading slot manufacturer International Game Technology, announced the launch of Wheel of Fortune Extra Spin for desktop and mobile devices.
Inspired by the classic Wheel of Fortune slot machine, Wheel of Fortune Extra Spin features the Wheel Bonus, which changes all of the spin symbols into the letters W-H-E-E-L, with each letter revealing a number of extra spins or awards of 10 to 25 times the initiating bet. The Vault Bonus changes all of the Vault symbols on the center reels into pickers, revealing payouts from five to 25 times initiating bet.
“We put a huge amount of focus and talent into Wheel of Fortune Extra Spin,” said Jim Veevaert, vice president of games for IGT subsidiary DoubleDown Interactive. “We thrive on the pressure of taking this legendary brand and increasing the ‘wow’ factor of the world’s most popular slot machine. It’s a fun challenge to turn a great slot machine into a mobile game. With Wheel of Fortune Extra Spin, we struck the ideal balance of art, math and audio that recreate the authentic casino experience.”
