Game of the Week

If you're looking for this week's hottest slot action, then check out this number from NetEnt. It went live in Casinos on the 13th, so you can load it up and start cracking the code for big payouts right now.

Codex of Fortune: NetEnt. RTP 96.11%

Set on 5x4 reels with 40 paylines, Codex of Fortune is a 7-tier level-up slot that brings the adventure to your doorstep on any device. It's a sequel to Turn Your Fortune (which if you've not played, you probably should as it's awesome, but it's not a prerequisite for understanding this game) and is all about leveling up for bigger prizes that can total up to 10,000x your bet.

Start making wins by matching 3-5 symbols from left to right on the reels. The jeweled key symbol is the wild, and the peacock is the scatter. Land two scatter, and you'll trigger a re-spin, land 3, and you'll go straight to free spins.

You'll notice on the left of the reels there's a codex, which is active in re-spins and free spins: this is how you'll level up. All you need to do is collect sets of symbols in fives to level up or use key symbols to skip levels, unlock the codex, and access higher payouts.
