Trillionaire

Get ready for a lavish reel show on the video slot from Red Tiger Gaming in collaboration with FashionTV Gaming Group and NetEnt. Trillionaire is inspired by the TV channel’s hit song ‘I Want to be a Trillionaire’, bringing the glitz and glamour of the catwalk to set of slot reels with wild transformations, symbol nudges, a free spins round with no low-paying symbols on the reels and the Fashion Wheel bonus game with multiple levels and a top prize of 1,000 times your bet.

Slot Details

Trillionaire is a branded video slot with five reels, four rows and 20 fixed pay lines. Wins are awarded for three to five matching symbols landing on a line from left to right only. You can take to the catwalk on desktop, mobile or tablet from 0.10 to 100 credits per spin. The game has maximum volatility (5/5) with a default RTP of 95.76% without jackpots. Beware, Red Tiger offers its games with a variety of RTP settings, which could be substantially lower than the default, in this case, anything from 90.75% – 95.76% without jackpots. A quick peek into the help files will let you find out which version you will be playing.

Unsurprisingly, the visuals are trying to convey the glitz and glamour of the fashion industry. Lots of gold blink and diamonds on a dark background provide the canvass to a game window that somehow looks far to small for a 5×4 format. Not missing either are some stunning supermodels in  a variety of designer dresses, each performing its own poses when transform into a wild symbol. A pacey EDM track provides the main audio.

The pay symbols start at the low end with card suits sporting shiny diamonds – clubs, diamonds, hearts and spades – and awarding 0.8x to 1x your bet for a single five of a kind. They are followed by five fashion supermodels, each with a different background colour – green, red, blue, purple and gold. Hit five on a line to win 3.5x to 7.5x your stake. During the free spins, one of the models will be the wild symbol, with five yielding a rather low 10x your bet. Hitting a full screen would pay a measly 200x stake. The game has no wild symbol as such but landing a model in full view will see it turning wild for the spin (more to that shortly). The Fashion TV logo marked with ‘Free Spins’ is the scatter while a roulette-style wheel acts as the bonus symbol.

Trillionaire Video Slot Features

FashionTV was founded in 1997 with the aim to bring the glitz and glamour onto our TV screens. Seems like they succeeded in doing just that as they claim to have annually over 2 billion viewers worldwide. They also set up an online gaming venture under the name of Fashion TV Gaming Group, developing and promoting anything from poker and bingo to slots and live casino games. On this occasion, they partnered initially with NetEnt in February 2020 who later in the year acquired Red Tiger Gaming. As a result, Trillionaire was built and released by Red Tiger. Spoiler alert – it wasn’t a good decision.

Apart from looking at a very small game window, featuring a relatively low RTP value and rather meager line payments, there are a few features that have the potential to make this reel fashion show somewhat entertaining. Core to that are naturally the five models. They will transform into wilds when they land in full reel height. Any partial in view can nudge to cover the reel and transform then as well. Don’t get too carried away though as a full screen of wilds will pay an excruciatingly low 200x bet.

You will get to see much more of the models during the Free Spins feature as low-value card suits and scatters are removed for the duration of the round. You will need to hit FashionTV scatters on reels one, three and five to trigger 8 free spins which cannot be retriggered. Before the round starts, you will be offered to choose one of the five supermodels that will always nudge and also turn wild whenever she appears on the reels.

The final feature is the Fashion Wheel bonus game. Hitting wheel bonus symbols on reels one, three and five will award the wheel which comes with four rings, each with increasingly better prizes. Land on a value segment to win the prize and the bonus game ends. However, landing on an arrow will advance you to the next ring whereas Red Tiger does not state in the game sheet as to whether the segments shown are the true odds. Here’s what you can win on each level. Worth noting is that the  prizes are not cumulative, you will win only one in each round.

• First level: awards an instant win of 5x bet or entry to the second level with odds at 50/50.
• Second level: awards an instant win of 10x, 30x bet, or entry to the third level.
• Third level: awards an instant win of 50x,100x, or entry to the final level.
• Fourth level: Reaching the final ring will instantly pay a coin win of 1,000x your bet.

Final Verdict

What a missed opportunity. Instead of creating something really special for this branded slot, NetEnt/Red Tiger opted to recycle format and features seen on countless other slots from their portfolio. Plus, the name Trillionaire implies that it is a video slot with gargantuan win potential, yet all you can get is a measly 1,000 times bet. That’s like pocketing copper instead of gold and diamonds. It will probably appeal to recreational players who are fans of FashionTV, while the rest of the crowd will most probably hesitate to pay for tickets aka spins for this reel show.
