You might win a fortune from home with Divine Fortune at PlaySugarHouse.com online casino.

Unlike Publisher’s Clearinghouse, who greet you with balloons and a check, this time you won’t even have to leave your couch.

PlaySugarHouse.com launched its online casino on July 17 with just 22 slots, but the site has built up the library substantially since. For example, Divine Fortune was added to their game roster on July 26.

PlaySugarHouse is the first and only online casino available on Apple devices in Pennsylvania.

What is Divine Fortune?

Developed by NetEnt, Divine Fortune is in the pantheon of slot blockbusters. The ancient Greek mythology-themed slot comes with five reels, 20 paylines, and these features:

  • Wild substitutions
  • Falling wilds re-spins
  • A wild on wild feature
  • Free spins
  • A jackpot bonus game with three different jackpots, including the progressive mega jackpot

What are progressive slots?

You don’t have to be a poker pro or a fluent in the language of craps to win big. Progressive slots, or jackpot slots, offer big-time payouts for players of all levels. A six or seven-figure payout can happen with one spin.

Even though players aren’t in a brick-and-mortar environment of a casino, progressive slots like Divine Fortune are a communal experience. Here’s how it works. A single slot is connected to a jackpot network. Percentages differ from-slot-to-slot, with a small portion of each bet adding to the pot. As the pot grows, so does the jackpot. Once a player wins the top payout, the prize pool resets.

How to win the Divine Fortune jackpot

To hit the Divine Fortune jackpot, you’ll need to spin three bonus symbols (gold coins). Once you’ve done that, the bonus game starts and gold coins move into view on 15 special reels. As the reels spin, you’ll win the minor jackpot for making an entire row of bonus symbols, the major for two rows, and the mega for all three rows.
