Mice & Magic Wonder Spin Slot Review

The Guinness World Record for the Most Makeup Applications in a Single Production is held by the movie The Hobbit. The team applied makeup and prosthetics to nearly 1,500 actors and extras to create the various creatures of Middle-earth.

Makeup is great when it’s fresh, but disastrous after a night of partying. I’m sure I’m not the only guy in the world who has hooked up with a babe only to wake up next to her the following morning and go, “Oh my god, I had relations with a raccoon.”

Yeah, that drunken, smeared eyeliner and Joker lipstick combo is something every hot-blooded male has experienced at least once in his life, and it’s traumatizing.

And then comes the delicate task of gnawing off your arm that’s trapped under the sleeping critter so you can sneak out of the house before she wakes up and wants round number two.

But the reason I started this intro by rambling on about The Hobbit is because Mice & Magic Wonder Spin slot from BGAMING is set in a Hobbit’s village. And I must say, it looks freakin’ sweet!

Gameplay

BGaming has done great work with the design of this game as the symbols are 3D, the background is lush and inviting, and the game translates well onto a mobile phone.

Things look exactly the same in landscape mode as they do on a desktop device, while in portrait mode, you get more sky and less background – but there’s less distraction when viewed this way.

Symbol-wise, there’s a malevolent cat with a face that’s in the shadows – this symbol activates the Wild frames that I’ll chat about a little later. The Cat Wild replaces all symbols other than Scatters.

You’ll also find stacked mice, cheese Scatters – 3 of which trigger the Free Spins round – a magician mouse and an archer one, a sword, a spellbook, a green top hat, and a crossbow.

Looking at the stats, we find the following:

  • Paylines: 20
  • RTP: 96.93%
  • Max Multiplier: 2,820x
  • Max Win: €225,600
  • Volatility Rate: Medium/high
  • Accepted Currencies: All available

Features

WILD FRAMES:

Wild Frames happen during the base game when the evil special symbol lands on the reels. When it hits, it’ll leave behind a frame of gold and these special symbols can also randomly boost the win multiplier.

Wild Frames will be sticky for a 10-spin cycle, after which they’ll turn into Wilds and the multiplier will reset. Well, that’s what the studio tells us, but I counted the spins many times and the frames transformed into Wilds after 8 spins. What’s up with that, BGaming?

FREE SPINS WITH STICKY WILDS AND MULTIPLIERS:

Hitting 3 Scatters simultaneously sets this feature off with 10 spins to start. Unfortunately, Free Spins can’t be re-triggered.

All the Wild symbols that land during the round will become sticky, meaning they’ll be locked into place until the Free Spins feature ends.

If a special symbol lands in a Wild Frame, the multiplier’s value will increase by a factor of 1 for that spin.

BUY BONUS:

There are 3 options you can pay for in this game:

  • Option 1: 50x your bet gets you into the Free Spins round
  • Option 2: 120x your bet gets you into the Free Spins round with 2x2 Wilds
  • Option 3: 400x your bet gets you into the Free Spins round with 3x3 Wilds

Performance

Hundreds upon hundreds of spins later, I can definitively say that you should have no issues while playing Mice & Magic Wonder Spin slot. It worked flawlessly on all my devices and when I switched browsers.

Maximum Win

The €225,600 top prize is outstanding as this slot has a medium to high volatility rate. Hell, I’ve seen games with high volatility rates that don’t offer this much. The largest multiplier you can scoop is only 2,820x though.

Betting starts at €0.20 and is capped at €80.

Conclusion

Sticky Wilds and Wild Frames are nothing new, but the stunning visuals combined with the excellent mobile experience elevated Mice & Magic Wonder Spin slot over the competition.

The experience of playing this game is super rewarding but so is the generous top prize. My only gripe, if I have to nitpick, is the low max multiplier.

Actually no, I have another thing to complain about – the cost of Options 2 and 3 of the Buy Bonus. Sheesh; paying 120x and 400x respectively, is really rough. But that aside, the game gets a thumbs up from me.
