Magician’s Secrets review

Theme and Storyline

Magician’s Secrets is a slot machine themed around a world of magic and wizardry.

Players will enter an enchanting room filled with books and mysterious artifacts. Vials of poison, steaming potions, and colorful jewels all wait for players to cast the right spell.

Fans of the Harry Potter books and lovers of gem-themed slots may especially enjoy the aesthetic of Magician’s Secrets.

Graphics, Sounds and Animations

A classical tune filled with chimes adds a haunting tension to this game. Players will feel like a character unveiling a plot-twist in a fantasy story. The reels land with a satisfying swish, giving them an authentic feel.

The graphics are animated in rich hues with impressive detail. The jewel symbols are cut into card suits in emerald ruby, and sapphire tones. Each seems to catch the low light of the library.

Also among the symbols are gem-encrusted goblets, embellished daggers, and thick ancient books. All the symbols have an ancient, ornate look that gives the world a sense of grandeur.

Behind the reels is a massive library with a ceiling made of windows. This allows players to peer out at the night sky and spot a shooting star or two.

Overall, the graphics and music create an enchanting atmosphere.

Gameplay

Magician’s Secrets is a six reel, four row slot game.

Players are awarded wins for landing matching symbols in adjacent reels, starting from the leftmost reel and going towards the rightmost reel.

The gameplay pace is smooth and engaging.

Players can buy directly into the Free Spins feature if they choose. The cost of this buy-in is x100 total current bet.

Wilds, Bonuses and Free Spins

The Wild symbol substitutes for all symbols except the Scatter symbol. Players can land Wilds on reels 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.

At random, Wilds can expand to cover the entire reel vertically. During these expansions, the Wild also has a randomized multiplier between x2 and x10. This multiplier is applied to any winning combinations that the expanded Wild is part of.

The Scatter symbol appears on all reels. When players land at least 3 Scatters, the Free Spins feature begins, starting with 8 or 10 free spins, depending on the chosen option.

At the beginning of the Free Spins feature, players choose between two versions of the feature.

• Free Spins with Expanding Wilds: Wild symbols landing on reels 3 or 4 expand to cover the reel and trigger a respin. A multiplier on the expanded Wild increases by 1 for each respin to be applied to wins. This version of the feature begins with 10 free spins and players receive 10 more free spins if they land 3 or more Scatters during the feature. Multipliers stack, and this feature can be retriggered without limit.
• Free Spins with Sticky Wilds: A random symbol is selected and whenever this symbol lands on reels 2, 3, 4, or 5, it becomes a Wild symbol. Any Wild symbols that appear during this version of the feature remain on the reels for the duration of the Free Spins. If players fill at least one reel with Sticky Wilds on a spin, they are awarded an additional 3 free spins.

The maximum win while playing Magician’s Secrets is x5,000 the player’s bet.
