Theme of the Game
You have every right to be confused with the title of the latest game coming from Play’n GO. Fodseldagen tells you little on what this game might be all about, but just wait until you hear what the translation of this world in Danish is.
Fodseldagen means Birthday, and this brand new 5-reel, 20-payline video game is all about a birthday celebration as you might have guessed already.
This game follows the adventures of a family preparing a birthday party for their children and it is a genuinely playful title and a brightly coloured game presented in a cartoon-like style.
Developer
Founded in mid 90s by a small group of computer geeks working for big corporations, Play’n GO was established with a single goal of producing casino games that will be exciting to play.
Having taken their aim at delighting others and inspiring them to have fun, Play’n GO used their positive approach to create a positive working environment which resulted in this Swedish developer becoming a major player in the industry.
What separates Play’n GO from other developers is their desire to develop solutions built for the future. With that being said, Play’n Go was the first online game developer to move into the mobile arena and they intend to remain at the forefront of it.
How to Play it
Fodseldagen is featuring symbols depicting all of the birthday accessories. We have birthday candles presented in numbers 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, while there are also birthday presents wrapped in differently coloured boxes.
Birthday cake is the game’s Wild and it substitutes for all other symbols except the Bonus symbol presented in form of balloons and Danish flags and the Scatter symbol one which is a collection of different instruments that we guess belong to a birthday band, which is responsible for the Free Spins mode.
Main aim in the game is – as always – to notch at least three matching symbols in order to form a winning combination. There is a twist to it though as your regular wins can be multiplied when you land a Scatter somewhere in it, at least two of them.
With that being said, two Scatter symbols will double your win, while three Scatters will trigger the Free Spins bonus, but also boost your win 3x. What is more 4 and 5 Scatters will add 30 and 300 coins to the payline wins, respectively.
Special Features
Fodseldagen benefits from a Bonus feature that gets activated once you get at least three Scatters on your paylines. Once initiated, the bonus will first take you on a completely different Pick a Win screen where you will be given access to a Gift Room to pick one and reveal your prize.
Balloons, a camera, birthday hats and bels of some sort are the lowest denominations offering 2x your total bet. A drum set will give 5x your total bet, a tablet is worth 10x your bet, while a wrist watch will increase your total bet 20x.
A cake is the top prize worth 100x your bet stake. You get to choose three gifts for a combined win which is a great incentive in this playful game.
There is also a Free Spins mode in this game which is triggered once you land at least three instruments symbols on your reels. Your reels will become pink with all of the symbols becoming single-coloured pattern in a mode that will award 15 free games.
Maximum Payout
Fodseldagen is available at five different coin level in a 20-payline system with the Birthday Cake Wild being the highest paying symbol worth 500 coins for five of a kind.
Bonus mode during which you get to choose three gifts can ideally give you a 300x multiplier to your stake, which is pretty awesome.
Summary
Play’n GO have created a playful and joyful game called Podseldagen, which means “Happy Birthday” in Danish. Obviously, the game revolves around a birthday party filled with cakes, balloons, instruments and it offers innocent, pure fun to all of you who decide to have a go at it.
High Paying Wild, Free Spins triggering Scatters and a Pick a Gift bonus mode offer plenty of fun and high rewards, which might be enough of a reason to try this brand new video game.
