Unicorn Magic Slot Review

For those of you who enjoy playing games filled with fairytales and all the creatures that may inhabit fictional lands, ‘Unicorn Magic’ is probably one of the products that you need to play. It takes on the same kind of imagery – almost right down to an exact carbon copy – of that which is included in other games of this theme from Novomatic, such as ‘Secret Forest’. It’s obviously part of the same series, as the icons, game layout and incorporated awful soundtrack are all the same. In fact, there’s very little difference in the selection of these games, save for the titles. However, as with all the rest, you’ll find some decently designed graphical content and relatively intriguing game play.

An Inner Trip to Fantasy, Freedom and Love…

Or, you know, something along those lines. The fantasy theme is very much a topic that is focused on heavily by games designers, so there’s going to be heavy judgement cast across the sector right away. Unicorn Magic offers up a very standard video slot layout of five reels and three rows, and upon these, you will find the various different icons. These are obviously all relative to the world of fantasy, so you’ll be offered up icons of griffins, pixies, fairies, magical toadstools, talking trees, elaborate castles and, of course, a golden-horned unicorn. The remainder of the symbols are made up by the A, K, Q, J, 9 and 10 icons, presenting you with the overall imagery.

Alongside this, all players will have the option of wagering on a total of nine different pay lines. Using the buttons at the bottom of the screen, you’re able to switch between a single line, up to three, five, seven and the maximum of nine. Furthermore, you’re also able to change the value of a single credit, which starts from $0.50 and then moves up to $1 and after that, $2. Then, in order to change the amount of coins you wager per line, you simply need to use the ‘Bet One’ button to increase it from its minimum of one coin to the maximum of 100. Therefore, all players have the possibility of placing a total overall wager of $900 per spin. An ‘Automatic Start’ button is also integrated, which will allow you to play several consecutive rounds of the game at the same bet level.

The highest paying symbol of this game is, of course, the unicorn, and this one also acts as its wild symbol as well. In doing so, it will act as a stand in for all other icons on the reels in order to make a winning combination. The only exception to this rule is the trees with faces, which provides the scatter icon. If you manage to spin five wild icons onto a single pay line with maximum wager placed, you have the chance of winning a pay out of $900,000.

In addition, there is also a scatter, as mentioned. Throughout this series of games, the trees with faces provide this, and these pay out wherever they appear on the reels. If you manage to spin three or more onto the screen, you’ll also trigger the freespins round, which provides you with an initial amount of 15. During this round, all pay outs are tripled, and further freespins can be re-triggered as well.

The third and final feature of this product is its gamble round. This is triggered at the ended of every winning combination, and is one of the Novomatic staples. Once it is activated, you have the chance to either take your winnings as they are, or play a side game to gamble them in a bid to increase them. Should you do this, you’ll be presented with a new screen, featuring a deck of playing cards. You only need to guess the colour of the next playing card to be turned over, and if you’re successful with your guess, you’ll see your winnings doubled. An unsuccessful guess will see your winnings lost.

Repeating the Same Theme Does Not Work Wonders

It’s a shame to say it, but just adding the same icons, same game play, same special features and the same everything, except for the title of the game, does not provide gamers with a new product. Instead, it’s quite insulting that you’d want them to believe it’s a whole other game, when in reality, it’s just a complete carbon copy.
