Ascending Fortunes Pagoda Rising
About this machine
It’s a race to the top in Incredible Technologies’ Ascending Fortunes Pagoda Rising™! The Prism VXP™ cabinet is the perfect canvas for a game feature that’s all about sending bonus meters and free spin reels skyward!
243 Ways to Win are full of beautiful Eastern-inspired animal characters, but players are keeping their eyes peeled for gemstone scatters! All gem scatters add a random number of expansions to the meters above – up to five additional expansions! The sparkling stone above will rise up, indicating progress toward a bonus feature!
Any gem scatter has the potential to randomly trigger its respective Free Spins Bonus. Players that land three scatters are guaranteed to trigger the bonus! Above the reels are Mini, Minor, Major, Grand, and Mega Free Spins sliders, each keeping count of the awarded random expansions! Each sliding meter corresponds with the number of added reel expansions during Free Spins.
Free Spins are triggered by gemstone scatters but can also be awarded with a pick bonus! Golden ingot scatters are wild on the reels, then fly up to the glittering pile of gold above. The pile grows and can initiate a pick bonus! Players choose coins to reveal Free Spin bonuses. Once three of a kind are matched, the fun begins!
Each Free Spin event awards 10 free spins. The number of random expands is dependent on just how many gems were collected throughout play and how long the meter has grown! Up to 350 expansions may be awarded for up to 100,000 Ways to Win on a spin! With each free spin, the reels move and expand as a random number of expansions are applied to each spin. Dynamic reels continue to shift until the final spin and all expansions have been used.

Artwork & cabinet
Where Ascending Fortunes Pagoda Rising sits in Incredible Technologies's range
Ascending Fortunes Pagoda Rising is part of Incredible Technologies's Ascending Fortunes line, which runs to 4 documented titles. Manufacturers ship a hit as a family rather than one box, so entries in a series share branding and often a bonus structure while carrying different maths.
It is listed on the Prism VXP™ cabinet. The cabinet is the hardware — screen geometry, button deck, chair and speakers — and the same title is frequently released on more than one, which is why a game can look and feel different at two properties.
Ascending Fortunes Pagoda Rising is a Class II machine — that changes the question
Under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988, Class II covers bingo and games that are technologically aided bingo. This machine is legally a bingo terminal. Every play enters a bingo game shared with other players on the same system, and the outcome is decided by that draw — the spinning reels are an animation that reveals a result already determined.
That is why "what is the RTP of this machine" doesn't map cleanly onto a Class II title. Return depends on the bingo pool, the prize schedule and how many terminals are competing in each draw — none of which live inside this cabinet.
Class II is what allows tribal properties to operate without a Class III compact with the state, which is why the same game title often exists in both a Class II and a Class III build with different maths behind identical artwork.
If you have played Ascending Fortunes Pagoda Rising at two properties and it felt different, this is frequently why — you may have been playing two different regulatory builds of the same title.
Where to play
We don't yet have verified floor placements for this machine. Our casino cross-reference covers 442 properties, but only through IGT's public linked-progressive data — which doesn't reach Incredible Technologies titles. We would rather show nothing than guess.
Rest of the Ascending Fortunes line
All 4 Ascending Fortunes machines →4 titles carry this branding. They share artwork and usually a bonus structure, but each ships its own maths.
Other Class II machines from Incredible Technologies
Class II titles run on a shared bingo draw rather than an independent RNG — a different product category, not just a different game.
