The laughing Buddha, according to Zen Buddhism, gives good fortune, abundance, and joy. That is an apt description for Everygame Casino’s new slot, Fortunate Buddha. 

And in the end, you will be the one laughing! This game is jam-packed with unique elements designed to bring players plenty of good fortune. Are you not convinced? Then take a look at a few of them and you will undoubtedly agree. While the term “Buddha” is frequently used to refer to Siddhartha Gautama, the founder of Buddhism, the title is also given to people who have attained Nirvana. Throughout the years, many more have gained Buddhahood. This is also true of the Laughing Buddha, who should not be confused with Gautama Buddha.

Graphic Features and Symbols

Additionally known in Chinese as Fat Buddha and Happy Buddha, the Laughing Buddha was a Chinese monk who flourished around the tenth century. 

He was often referred to as Budai, which translates literally as “cloth sack.” Budai was an eccentric figure with an unusual appearance. His sole property was the aforementioned sack. Budai was a poor but cheerful man who frequently patted his enormous belly and laughed. Meeting the traveling monk was a positive sign, as Budai was thought to bring wealth, joy, and abundance to anyone he met. In China, Japan, South Korea, and Vietnam, he is revered. As can be seen, the Laughing Buddha is the ideal candidate for a slot. He will undoubtedly bring those who spin the reels joy, fortune, and abundance, and you will quickly discover why.

Let’s begin with the Fortunate Buddha slot’s wild symbol. As is customary, it will substitute for all other symbols in order to complete a winning combination. However, the wild cannot be used in place of the Sack of Coins and Fortune Orb scatter symbols. The wild symbol appears exclusively on reels 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Bonus Features 

When it comes to scattering symbols, this is where the real fun begins. Maintain an eye out for the second scatter symbol, the Fortune Orb. Six free spins are awarded whenever three or more appear anywhere on the gameboard. As generous as he is, the Laughing Buddha is more than willing to add a couple more. The feature is re-triggerable and will award an additional three free spins.

When six or more Fortune Orb symbols appear anywhere on the game board, the Fortune Link function is triggered. Three further spins will be awarded, with the triggering orbs remaining in position. Whenever a Fortune Orb arrives, it will be held in place and the re-spins will be reset to three. When the feature concludes, you will be compensated for all prizes displayed on the orbs – including jackpots! And if you fill all 15 of the gameboard’s positions with Fortune Orbs, you’ll win the Super Grand Jackpot!
