Magician's Secrets Slots
You are guaranteed to be spellbound by this magical slot game. There are so many slots games at our fingertips it takes something special to stand out, and this game has the “it factor.” It has many of the comfortable characteristics slot players expect but with enough variation to be exciting to veterans of this industry. Grab your magic spinning wand and check out all of the enchantment this game offers.
Symbols & Sorcery
The theme by itself is enough to entertain most players because of its bright colors and fun content. It is impossible not to be transported to another dimension when you see the background of this game. The board is centered in a Magician’s library with fun moving details like a spinning globe, twinkling lights, and shooting stars. When you first start, there is a wizard to the right of the board, but he disappears when you start to play.
The symbols are amazing in this game because they improve on a classic design. Instead of the traditional playing card symbols you would expect, this game takes those card suits and gives them a major upgrade. You will see pink spades, blue diamonds, red hearts, and green clubs. There is a fifth symbol that matches the rest of these but isn’t tied to a card suit, and that is the orange gem that looks like a shield. You will also see other mystical symbols worth a little more, like a dagger, an amulet, a chalice, a poison bottle, and a magic book.
Audio is an essential feature in these games because it helps set the ambiance. Unfortunately, it is far too often that the music and sound effects of these games are a little annoying. Of course, that is not the case with this wonderful slot. While the music is a bit repetitive, it is so slow and light that you barely even notice it's there. The same goes for the sound effects that are so light and complement the game so well you barely notice they are there.
The Spells Fizzle a Little
You would think that a game that boasts it has nearly 5,000 ways to win would have a little more in the bonus features department, but unfortunately, there isn’t a lot here. Of course, it does have the ever-present wild feature, which is represented by a frame-breaking picture of the wizard with the word “wild” scrolled along the bottom. This game relies mostly on long strings of matches equalling big pay lines, so the wilds are fairly important. When you’re really lucky, you’ll randomly trigger the expanding wild to have your entire reel taken over by the wild symbol.
The only true bonus feature relies on the crystal ball scatter symbol and gives you two options for prizes. First, if you hit either four, five, or six scatter symbols in a single spin, you will respectively earn 20, 200, or 2000 times your bet. You also get free spins, where you get to choose what the wild does. You can choose to have expanding wilds, which means the wild takes over the entire reel, or sticky wilds, which means that if you hit a wild, it stays in that spot until the free spins round is over. Both options can be lucrative; it comes down to your preferred style of gameplay.
Visually Stunning and Acceptable Play
To call this game a disappointment would be an overstatement, but it is disappointing that a game that checked so many boxes wouldn’t deliver where it really counts. From a user interface perspective, you can’t go wrong with a game that is so attractive to look at and isn’t annoying to listen to. The problem is, that there aren’t many special features to choose from, and when you do hit a bonus feature, it is a little underwhelming. If you are looking for a game that will entertain you with looks alone, Magician’s Secrets Slot is the game for you. However, if you are looking for a game bursting with special features and side quests, the secret is this is not the slot for you.
