Slot Summary

On March 23, 2022, IGT placed Ruby Riches into the PowerBucks Wheel of Fortune series as a jewel-themed progressive slot with two distinct interruptions to its 30-payline base game. Treasure chests collect displayed cash and jackpot values, while a separate wheel trigger can return prize values, multipliers, or a PowerBucks award. Its 90.33% RTP puts considerable weight on reaching those feature routes.
MechanicsTreasure chests collect values before wheel-based awards

How It Plays

Thirty fixed paylines provide the ordinary spin structure, but treasure chests introduce a collection event that gathers displayed cash and jackpot values when the required chest lands.

The game separates collection from wheel activation. One event resolves visible values already present on the grid, while the other transfers the outcome to a prize wheel.

Theme & Atmosphere

Ruby Riches uses Gems and Luxury as a clear visual shorthand for value, setting the ruby as the edition's central identity within the PowerBucks Wheel of Fortune series.

The television association supplies a familiar game-show context, while Crown and Love motifs reinforce the polished prize-display treatment without introducing a separate narrative.

Features & Win Potential

The Progressive Jackpot gives selected feature outcomes access to the PowerBucks prize pool. Bonus symbols create the routes into collection and wheel events rather than modifying every base spin.

Wild and Scatter Symbols keep the base game legible, while Multipliers shift selected bonus awards beyond their displayed starting values when the wheel stops.

Bonus & Free Spins

The Bonus wheel activates through its separated coin and treasure-chest scatters. A successful trigger can produce fixed prize values, multipliers, or access to progressive awards.

Free Spins use a different scatter pattern and can be retriggered. This gives Ruby Riches a repeatable spin-based bonus alongside its immediate wheel result.

Running simulation…
How this works

Each simulated spin either misses or returns a win drawn from a log-normal distribution, with the hit rate and spread set by the slot's volatility tier (Medium). The model is calibrated so the average return equals this slot's published RTP (90.33%), with wins capped at its top multiplier (1,000×).

This is a simplified, parametric model of the game's math — not its real paytable. It exists to make the house edge visible over many sessions, so the numbers above are averages across thousands of runs, never a forecast of one.

This is math, not a prediction. Real sessions vary wildly, and no strategy changes a game's built-in house edge. Play for fun, set limits, and never bet more than you can afford to lose.
