Putting a dent in its 52-game release year, Swedish slots specialist Play’n GO has launched its seventh new title of 2020 with Fortunes of Ali Baba.

The 5-reel, 3-row and 20 fixed paylines video slot is a nod to the very popular, Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, one of the best-known stories in One Thousand and One Nights (aka, Arabian Knights) collection of folk tales.

Use of exciting elements:

The high variance slot utilizes some of the most well-known elements of the classic to create an engaging adventure for players, including a pair of special features. One of the features involves Ali Baba finding the thieves’ treasure by breaking open oil jars, while the second finds the poor woodcutter being chased across the reels by the King of Thieves until he is caught.

Attention to detail:

According to the official press release…

…special attention has gone into staying true to the storyline of the popular folk tale, something that Chief Executive Officer for Play’n GO, Johan Törnqvist, believes to be important.

“The story of Ali Baba is well-known and enjoyed by people all over the world. We wanted to take the most exciting elements of the story to create a fun game that people could enjoy playing as well as experiencing the most exciting parts of a well-loved story.

“Story is a big factor in storytelling, and we want to give that to audiences, to increase their enjoyment and leave them wanting more!”

Big win potential:

Fortunes of Ali Baba also comes with a five-level Den of Thieves Bonus picking game, a default return to player (RTP) rate of 96.89 percent and potential wins of up to 9,948 times the stake.

The Växjö-headquartered games supplier shows no sign of slowing down its frenzied pace, having churned out a whopping SEVEN games in the first two months of the new year.

The latest release is on the heels of the software provider’s Egyptian-themed title, Dawn of Egypt, which offers high volatility action and symbol upgrades on every spin.
