Wizard of the Woods

Wizard of The Woods is a magical adventure which takes us on a trippy psychedelic journey of spells and tinkerbells. Set in the heart of an imaginary dense wood inhabited exclusively by all those elusive beings we were in our late childhood made to believe were nonexistent and fictitious. This slot game, powered by 2by2 finally confirms the existence of the folk who dwell among the trees and their midsummer rituals that have been ceremoniously taking place in our woods and forests for hundreds, maybe thousands of years. So here we are, let the immortal Wizard of the whispering woods take you through the passages of myths where you can pick those magic crystals with your very own fingers, breathe into your heart the pungent aromas of fertility and sample those orange and green magic potions, so for the first time your eyes are finally opened and you will be able to witness for yourself the glorious sight of that most mystical of creatures, the Moon Deer, and put some money in your pocket!

The Trail

Wizard of the woods comes on a standard 3 row on 5 reel interface which hold 25 set pay lines. It has a bet selection that ranges from 0.25 up to 25.00 coins. There are no progressive jackpots in this slot but there are two features which are not just appropriate to the theme, but make the whole package that much more attractive. But first let’s see what can be had from the reels during the base game. This slot game is powered by 2by2 and has 2 tier value symbols. The highest value symbol apart from the wild, which we shall get into later, is the handsome Wizard himself. Whenever, you see five of him appear on your reels, you rake in 75 coins of whatever value you’d have selected prior to the spin. Next comes the stunning fairy Princess pulling in 40 coins for five of the same and last of the living is the Moon Deer with a premium of 20 coins. The medium value symbols are the Green and Orange Potions, and what I think are purple crystals (forgive me if that isn’t what they are, but I had some difficulty making them out!) which are worth a maximum of 15 for the orange and 12.50 for the other two. Finally come the card suits, for want of better imagination, that pay 5 coins for the higher house and 4 coins for the lower. Berries, hollies, owls and toadstools would have cut it so much better!

Of Wilds, Scatters and Special Features

As it has been pointed out earlier this slot game has no progressive jackpots. But it does have a couple of interesting features which can help the punter rake in some notable payouts. Let’s start with the Wild card, or the Green Orb card which can only appear on reels 2, 3, and 4 . This card substitutes for all other symbols to help complete winning combinations except for the Scatter, which in this case is the Rose. Land 5 of these wilds on the reels and you’re looking at x80 your stake and it doesn’t stop there as it also doubles any winnings it helps complete. A full stack of wilds will get you the Wizard Magic feature! Here the wizard opens a portal into another dimension where an oracle appears and spins to determine and transform one, or even two normal symbols into additional wilds. More free spins can be awarded during this feature and better payouts can be accumulated. That, or at the wizard’s discretion you may get x10 your total bet in credits instead. The Scatter, or the Rose symbol, also triggers its own free spins feature and when you land 3 of these anywhere on the middle reels, not reel 1 or 5, an award of ten free spins goes into action. During this feature the Wizard Magic is frequently set off making way for some exciting play as well as sizable pay outs.

The Opinion

Well how well does this slot rate in the presence of others? Wizard of the woods is what one might call a very charming slot game indeed. The set of a midsummer evening in the middle of the woods dotted with beaming glow worms that shine like diamonds in the shawdowy, heavily wooded terrain, throbbing with magical ambiance of magic and mystery. Amidst the trees lives a handsome, ageless wizard who is a master sorcerer by decree and pivotal to the wood- cum forest he manifests as his own and not excluding the multi-dimensional dependents who co-exist therein and on whom can bestow unimaginable good tidings The soundtrack is a pleasant modern cross between Green sleeves and Selling England by the pound which certainly helps to drive the atmosphere of frogs and men in tights even further. There are 25 set paylines with a maximum payout of x80 your stake on the base game and a jackpot high of 2000 coins. The maximum bet one can place is a respectable 25 coin stake, so perhaps this is better suited for those punters who want to enjoy some light or medium gambling and not for the big rollers. Nevertheless, the slot game is fun, original, exciting and offers little less realistic potential than the average run on the mill slots that are currently being launched on the net. Wizard of the wood has a RTP rating of just over 96% which makes it a little, almost non-significantly, but still less competitive when compared the average RTP of slots you find on line today and does not quite offer any substantial payouts , but on the other hand, as far as the entertainment factor is concerned, this game really deserves a try. It is fun, it is put together well and has some original aspects to it, What sets it apart, perhaps, is the way it has been designed and the engine that runs it.
