Clearly following in the footsteps ofWheel Of Wishes, Alchemy’s 10000 Wishes comes with a very similar desert backdrop, and the symbols are identical. Fill the reels with the highest value lamp to win 500x your stake, which is more likely to happen on a Power Spin. This feature triggers on a regular basis, awarding a single spin with3x3 mega symbolsin the middle.
You can, of course, decide to switch on the Power Mode, but this is far from a cheap joyride. Getting nothing but Power Spins would be more interesting if larger payouts than 500x could be landed, but sadly, this is the most you can win without triggering theJackpot Wheel. Of course, your chances of doing exactly that also increases when you play in Power Mode.
Thewild symbolssteps in for all regular pay symbols, and it also pays 100x your stake for 5 on a payline. What you really want in this game however, is to land at least3 power wheel scatterson the same spin. This triggers a Power Spin, where a massive 3×3 symbol lands in the middle, and reel 1 and 5 turn into a randomly chosen high value symbol.
If you land the Power Wheel scatter as the 3×3 mega symbol, you trigger the Jackpot Bonus Wheel. There are4 fixed jackpotsup for grabs in this game, and they are all on display above the reels. The jackpots are worth the following:
Whenever the jackpot feature is triggered, you are guaranteed to win one of the prizes. You can choose to play in Power Mode, but this will increase the price per spin with 25x. Each spin is then a Power Spin, increasing your chances for larger payouts, as well as your chances of triggering the Jackpot Bonus Wheel.
We got plenty of Power Spin teasers before the feature is finally triggered at 1:20 into the 3-minute highlights video. Nothing was won from it however, so we decided to switch to Power Mode instead. This soon triggered the Jackpot Wheel feature, and you can see which one we landed by hitting the play button.
Alchemy Gaming has made a more volatile version of their own Wheel Of Wishes, and the 2 games are very similar except for the math model. The predecessor is a “very low volatility” game, but the Wowpot Jackpot seeds at £2,000,000. In 10000 Wishes however, you get a10,000xjackpot as the biggest possible win, and both games revolve around the Power Spin feature.
Sure, it’s fun when you finally get a power spin, but it’s not so fun when nothing comes from it. This makes it very tempting to turn on the Power Spin mode, even though that’s far from cheap. The largest possible single spin win is 500x your stake, or 1,000x if you by some miracle should fill the screen with wilds. You need the Mega jackpot to win truly big in other words, which makes the rest of the game kind of tame.
Pros
Cons
Wheel Of Wishes- comes with “very low volatility”, but the RTP is also pretty low. This is because of the progressive jackpots, and the big one starts at £2 million. You can play in Power Mode here too, and the Power Spin feature can lead you into the jackpot wheel.
Wheel Of Wonders- is a Push Gaming title where cascading wins unlock up to 3 extra rows. Each row you unlock awards cash prizes, multipliers and modifiers, and the final unlock triggers the bonus round. You can win up to 47,233x your stake.
Book of Atem WowPot- is another installment in Microgaming’s Wowpot series, and per usual, the top jackpot seeds at £2 million. You can win up to 5,000x your stake from the ‘book of’ mechanic bonus round, but you need to be lucky with your chosen symbol.
