Mystic Spells Review
All of the above feature action will turn up eventually but you might have to budget a little carefully to ensure that your balance makes it through to the main event. However, it may also be possible, depending on where you live, to increase your chances of seeing the Black Spell feature activate. At a cost of 13x per spin, you will have a guaranteed Black Spell symbol. It is quite a steep price to pay for what may or may not compensate you in the long run.
Design
Fantasma Games has opted out of the full-scale visual onslaught by bringing the reels very much to the foreground and leaving the rest to your imagination. It has a nice yet slightly mischievous feel to the base game thanks to the light classical score, which turns all together jovial as the Golden Key Free Spins arrive. It is quite a contrast and well worth the experience.
Gameplay
Thanks to the Black Spell feature, which triggers fairly frequently throughout the base game, your regular spins should see some action. But it is nothing compared to what the Golden Key Free Spins can offer. Sure, the Black Key Free Spins are nice to have but this isn't where the big wins will be found.
Hope and pray that you find 3 Golden Key symbols as soon as possible and pay attention to all of those Sticky Wilds. These start to accumulate some incredible payouts while in cahoots with that Persistent Multiplier.
Win Potential
Some lucky players could eventually make their way to the max 10,000x win but with a hit frequency of just 22.58%, it could be a bit of a marathon rather than a sprint. The volatility is extremely high, so you never know when a massive prize could arrive and don't forget that the standard RTP is 96.01%.
Our Verdict
For the most part, Mystic Spells won't blow you away in a cloud of magical exuberance, but this will all change if you manage to score 3 Golden Key symbols and watch the Sticky Wild and Persistent Multiplier come into play. Ordinarily, I might feel indifferent about a game like this but with a superb bonus feature waiting just around the bend, this slot could produce something a little special.
Paul spent plenty of time in arcades up and down the UK discovering all of the best fruit machines and watching them grow into the incredible online slots we see today. He still loves the basic format but also has a soft spot for games with big bonus rounds that progress as you play. Immortal Romance is one of his favourite slots of all time.
