Fortress Charge

Some might say that you can’t really make something completely different when designing a video slot, after all it will have reels and symbols like any other such product, right? Well, Crazy Tooth Studio are keen on proving that wrong. 

Fortress Charge goes well beyond your usual slot game, it goes so far ahead that most players would need a tutorial ahead of playing it. Imagine that, having to go through a tutorial before playing an online slot!

Theme

Fortress Charge seems to have been inspired by popular video games, it is set in a fantasy world in which you have to take your hero through a mysterious castle. In fact there are five heroes in the game: a beast, a dragon, an elf, a dwarf, and a knight.

The whole game feels like a quest, the background music adds a nice touch to that atmosphere, while the animations are spectacular and eye-catching. The castle is populated with all sorts of dangers, but there are treasure chests hidden between its walls as well. 

Betting Options and Functions

This game has 6 reels and 3 rows, and three paylines, but it’s very far from the classic slots you are used to. It looks a lot more like a video game than a slot. When you hit the “spin” button, one or more heroes can land on the leftmost reel, while three fortresses will drop at the opposite end of the row, on the rightmost reel. 

After that, when you spin again, each position between the hero reel and the fortress reel can either remain empty or be filled by a villain, a weapon or some other accessory, a multiplier, or a treasure chest. 

The hero will move into the next space if it’s empty, fight the villain if it’s possible, pick up the accessory or take the treasure. If your hero makes it to the fortress you get the respective prize, along with everything else you collected along the way. 

The return to player is above average, 96.45%, while the volatility is high. You should not expect to get heroes on every spin, but when you do get one you should be rewarded both with fun and prizes. 

Features

There are no wilds or free spins in this product, we already know it’s not your regular slot. What you should know is that every hero can defeat different villains, and the accessories that they pick up along the way can decide whether your hero wins or loses the battle. 

For instance, the dragon hero will defeat the ogre and the spikes, the beast can only defeat the ogre, the elf will crush the scorpion, the dwarf will get the better of the boulder, and the knight will be able to get past both the scorpion as well as the snake. 

If you pick up the potion accessory, the boulder will be defeated regardless of the hero you have. The same goes for the spear against the ogre, the wooden shield against the scorpion, while the shiny shield goes well against both the scorpion and the snake.

Conclusion

Fortress Charge is an innovative video slot from Crazy Tooth Studio, they always seem ready to surprise us with their products. The game might seem a bit complicated if you read the description, but once you start spinning the reels the whole idea becomes quite clear. 

And you’ll surely enjoy both the idea and the action, we all love a good quest and when it all can end with big prizes it’s even better! You can win up to 16,000 times your stake in this game, so make sure you train your heroes well!
