Wizard Shop free play
The action takes place inside the wizard’s shop, where you have the option of buying goodies to help you increase your winnings. The wizard explains the gameplay instructions as you enter. There’s an interactive component to this game, as players decide how to spend their accumulated coins. It’s not complicated, and you get the hang of it very quickly.
If a scroll scatter lands on reels 1, 3, and 5, the wizard shop feature is triggered and a wild symbol appears. Three matching symbols on a payline wins you a payout. Two wizards or wild symbols will also earn you a reward. There’s a control panel where you can select your play features like bet total, game settings, autoplay, and play tables.
You can get spinning for as low as 25 cents, while the maximum bet is C$100. The maximum payout stands at 750 times your bet. There’s a mobile version, but no app. The mobile version tends to follow the standard one a bit too closely in terms of design. The action is in the same relatively small part of the screen, which makes comfortable viewing on a cellphone screen a challenge.

Game Symbols
The lower level symbols are the different colored ruins and potions you find in the wizard’s world. Increasing value symbols like the hourglass, spellbook, and wizard make things more interesting in terms of payouts. The Wild and Wizard’s Wild substitute all symbols except for the Scroll and Chest. The Scroll and Chest are scatter symbols and appear on reels 1,3, and 5.
Bonus Rounds & Free Spins
The wizard symbol lands frequently, and when enough of them do, the Wizards Wild feature is activated. Wizards Wild turns the entire reel and all other wizard symbols into wilds, which make for big payouts. You automatically collect gold and silver coins during play. When three scroll scatters land, you get a 120 coin award and access to the wizard’s shop shelves.
The shelves offer added wilds, Wizard Wild multipliers, and scatter prizes. Your collected coins come in handy here, as you can get from 50 to 250 added wilds, depending on your budget. Wizard Wild multipliers range from 2x to 10x for Wizard Wilds wins. If you spend your bonus coins on upgrading scatter pays in bonus turns, the chest symbol scatter will pay out up to 5 times the bet.
