Our Opinion:

Wheel of Wishes was the first slot from the partnership between Microgaming and Alchemy Gaming. While it isn’t my favourite WowPot game, it has a solid theme and the power to dish out multimillion-dollar prizes. The Power Spins feature can get you big payouts from symbol combos, and it also holds the power of the WowPot progressive jackpot, which set a new online jackpot record when it paid out over $43 million to 1 lucky winner in 2023. Play Mega Fortune Dreams and Legacy of Dead if you want more prizes to blow your socks off.

RTP and Variance

The 93.34% RTP is below the industry average but in line with other progressive slots. This is a low-volatility game, so your winning and losing spins should be balanced.

How to Play Wheel of Wishes

The controls to the right of the reels allow you to spin, use Autoplay, or adjust your bet. You can also access the paytable and game options from here.

You must land the massive Bonus Wheel symbol fully in view during a Power Spin to trigger the jackpot bonus game and the Wheel of Fortune. This segmented wheel has four progressive jackpots, the Mini, Minor, Major, and WowPot jackpots, which seed at $10, $100, $50,000 and $2 million, respectively.

My Wheel of Wishes 25 Spins Experience

This game kept me on the edge of my seat and was a lot of fun.

I opened up Wheel of Wishes and got started, setting my bet amount to 2.50 credits, and almost immediately, I hit a few wilds and secured a decent win of 20 credits. After this, I had some close brushes with hitting the Wheel of Wishes symbols to trigger the bonus feature, but Unfortunately, I narrowly missed it. I then adjusted my bet amount to 5 credits per spin and continued. I then had a few lucky wins with the wilds symbols help of 15, 25, and 5 credits. And again, being so close to getting the Wheel of Wishes symbol. At this point, I had been ahead of my starting amount, and for the last few spins, the winnings started to slow down, lowering my backroll past my starting amount, and I ended off the 25 spins unsuccessfully.

Results:
  • Didn’t end in a profit.

Undoubtedly, the Wheel of Wishes slot is a great addition to Microgaming’s catalogue of great games. The game felt smooth and modern but still helped a classic slot feel. Even though I didn’t end in a profit, the game kept me on the edge of my seat and was a lot of fun. This session would have had a different result if I had hit the bonus feature.

Objective:25 spins to maximize my game time and entertainment value. To do this, I adjust my bet sizes/paylines to maximize my playing experience. If I hit any bonus features and walk away with more than I started, that’s a success.

Note:Because the results are always completely random, we use the demo simulation of the game, which mimics the real money experience. We always recommend you start in demo mode to learn and understand the game before you play for real money.
