Merlin’s Magic Respins is a magic-themed video slots game by NextGen Gaming. It is the sequel to Merlin’s Millions. The slots game features five reel and fifty pay lines, and it offers players various additional bonuses, such as stacked wilds, a SuperBet function, bonus features, and a wild respins functions. The game offers high quality graphics, entertaining animations, and a musical soundtrack that makes it all the more appealing.
Game’s Theme
Merlin’s Magic Respins is set in Merlin’s lab and is filled with magic-themed symbols, including a spells book, magic scrolls, goblets, cauldrons, and a telescope. The game also includes some of the standard poker-value playing cards, such as the ten, jack, queen, king, and aces.
SuperBet Feature
The SuperBet feature popular to Merlin’s Millions has also been included in Merlin’s Magic Respins. This feature allows players to set their own desired bet levels, and then turn the SuperBet feature up or down. If it is turned up, players will gain more wild respins and higher payouts. If it is turned down, players will get less wild respins and smaller payouts. Turning the SuperBet level up will cost an additional fifty coins per level, with a maximum of three hundred coins. There are a total of five SuperBet levels.
Gamble Feature
Merlin’s Magic Respins allows players to gamble their winnings for a chance to either double or quadruple them. The gamble feature will become available after every winning spin, and players will have to guess the correct colour or suit of a hidden standard playing card. If they guess the correct colour, wins will be doubled. If they guess the correct suit, wins will be quadrupled.
Wild Symbol
The wild symbol in Merlin’s Magic Respins is represented by Merlin himself. The Merlin wild can be used to substitute any other symbols and help players make up the best possible winning combinations with the highest payouts. The Merlin wilds will appear stacked on the second, third, and fourth reels of the game. If players manage to stack the wilds to fill an entire reel, they will win up to five free respins. That reel will remain wild.
If another four stacked wilds are landed, players will earn additional respins. The number of respins awarded will depend on the SuperBet level that has been set, and they range from one respin to five respins. The higher the SuperBet level, the more respins will be granted. During the respin feature, the Merlin wilds may appear stacked on all five reels, and not only on the second, third, and fourth reel as in the base game of Merlin’s Magic Respins.
Cauldron Scatters
The scatter symbol in Merlin’s Magic Respins is represented by the icon of the cauldron. Landing at last three of these cauldron scatters will trigger the Merlin’s Magic Respins free game bonus feature. Once this feature has been activated, players will receive seven free spins. Some of the symbols will randomly turn into wilds to up winning chances during this free spins feature.
