popular with players for delivering the genuine Vegas-style slot play experience,” said Jim
Veevaert, DoubleDown Interactive Vice President of Games. “Inspired by the timeless
classics that players love, we created Wheel of Fortune Double Times Pay 3x4x5x game,
replicating the traditional three-reel ‘stepper’ style game while amplifying the excitement of
winning with a huge 2000x bonus payout in the Wheel Bonus.”
