Revolution Patriot’s Fortune (Blueprint Gaming): Overview

Patriotism is a curious theme and one that tends to spark strong feelings on both sides. On one end, you have voices like Bill Hicks’ saying ‘I hate patriotism, man – it’s a round world last time I checked.’ On the other, many view patriotism as something not just admirable, but an obligation—standing up for your nation and defending it no matter the cost. Players in that second group may feel right at home with Blueprint Gaming’s slot Revolution Patriot’s Fortune. In a few respects, it works as a successor to the earlier hit Napoleon: Rise of an Empire. There are some surface-level overlaps, though the games also diverge in key ways. For starters, the famously self-assured French leader has exited the stage, replaced by a tough, resolute-looking unnamed general. Will this follow-up get patriotic hearts racing in the same way? Let’s dive in.

Blueprint has gone with a comparable presentation again. The backdrop keeps that battlefield atmosphere, while gameplay unfolds across 5 reels and 3 rows. A punchy soundtrack is back too, now reworked to suit the Continental Army marching off to face those pesky redcoats. Visually it leans a bit old-school—this isn’t a boundary-pushing release—but the graphics and audio do what they need to.

Your first task after loading the game is choosing a stake, starting at 10 p/c and as high as $/€10. That may feel modest for big bettors, though it likely ties into limiting risk given the game’s capped upside. Press spin manually or switch on auto spins, and you’re off into the thick of it. With war as the theme, the volatility fits accordingly, sitting in the medium/high bracket. RTP figures also seem to be trending downward lately, and Revolution Patriot follows suit with a slightly under-par return of 95.4%.

The paytable includes 10 standard symbols—6 higher-value and 4 lower-value. The low symbols are the J – A royals, tucked away in the bottom-left of the paytable. Above them are classic revolutionary-themed icons: pistols, a drum, stallions, a cart, a cannon, and a soldier taking aim with his rifle. Wins are created when 3 or more matching symbols land along one of the 20 paylines. The exception is the solider, which only requires two matching symbols and pays 50 times the stake for a five of a kind hit. The stern general in the black-and-white tricorn hat serves as the wild. When it appears, the Wild symbol expands to fill all 3 positions on its reel, helping complete line wins by substituting for other symbols.

Revolution Patriot’s Fortune (Blueprint Gaming): Features

The trusty bugle serves plenty of purposes: it rallies troops, marks solemn ceremonies, and in Revolution Patriot’s Fortune it also unlocks free spins. Landing 3 or more awards 15 Free Spins, and it can also pay up to 50x the stake for five across the reels. Given the game’s fairly high volatility, the free spins round is where you really want the action to come alive. Consider the base game the training and marching—free spins are when the fighting truly starts.

Two mechanics matter most here. The first is Expanding Wilds, which does exactly what it suggests: any wild that lands expands. It not only fills an entire reel, but also activates the Burning Reels feature at the same time. In practice, any low-paying symbols currently showing are burned away so new symbols can drop into their places. If more low symbols tumble in, they get burned too. This continues until no additional low symbols remain, after which any wins created are paid. Scatters remain active throughout the feature, meaning free spins can be retriggered to push the round further. To land the biggest payouts, you’ll want plenty of wilds appearing alongside matching premium symbols.

Revolution Patriot’s Fortune (Blueprint Gaming): Verdict

Revolution Patriot’s Fortune works as a solid follow-up to the popular Napoleon slot. It delivers a similar overall look with a sensible shift in theme, plus altered stats and a slightly different feel in play. Fans of the original should be happy with what Blueprint has produced. It doesn’t bring much that is genuinely fresh, though that likely wasn’t the goal. Instead, Blueprint has released a new entry that feels familiar while still updated for players who enjoyed the first game.

In terms of maximum potential, Blueprint has limited wins from a single game to 10,000 times the stake or $250,000 – whichever comes first. That ceiling sounds ambitious for what the game can realistically deliver. A full screen of soldiers—probably with help from expanded wilds—would pay 1,000 times the stake on one spin. You’d need to land something like that multiple times before you even start approaching the cap.

Revolution Patriot’s Fortune isn’t truly revolutionary, but it does what it sets out to do and can provide some fun highlights. And to settle the final question: which wins the war—Revolution or Napoleon? In our view, Napoleon is clearly the stronger title, as it’s much more explosive, more volatile, and has a reputation for throwing out some huge wins from time to time.
