Introduction to 3 Magic Eggs
3 Magic Eggs is a casino slot from Pragmatic Play with a theme mixing Vikings and dragons. The Vikings, who roamed the Northern hemisphere during the late 8th to early 11th centuries, were seafaring warriors and traders from Scandinavia. Their mythology and art often featured dragons, though not in the same sense as modern fantasy. In Norse culture, dragons symbolized power, chaos, and immense wealth. The most famous example is Níðhöggr, a dragon that gnaws at the roots of Yggdrasil, the world tree, in Norse mythology. Dragons also appeared on Viking ships and carved stones, often as protective symbols or representations of strength.
However, the dragons that sit above the reels in this game look like three cuties from a children's cartoon. The dragons are waiting for eggs to land, and any egg can trigger the bonus game, with the triggering dragon’s specific perk. If you’re lucky, you can trigger several bonus game modes in the same feature. Let’s see how Vikings and dragons interact in the slot world.

A snowy cartoonish landscape welcomes us in 3 Magic Eggs. There are tall snowy mountain peaks in the distance and a lake in front of it with a Viking ship. In the foreground are the blue reels with a brown frame, and above them sit three dragons in green, red, and blue, representing the bonus game modes Collect, Jackpot, and Multiplier.

Special Features & Slot Mechanics

What features are available in the slot 3 Magic Eggs?
The features are Dragon Eggs, Chest Respin Feature, Ante Bet, and Feature Buy.
Dragon Eggs
Three types of dragon egg symbols can appear in the base game. Whenever the Green, Red, or Blue dragon egg lands, it’s collected in its respective dragon nest above the reels. Collecting an egg can randomly trigger the Chest Respin Feature. This adds a new row where only collect or super collect dragon egg symbols can appear.
All collections happen at the end of the spin. If the respin feature is triggered, one, two, or all three modifiers can be activated at random. The respin round then plays using all the modifiers that were triggered.
Chest Respin Feature
The money symbol can only appear during the respin feature. When it lands, it receives a random value from 0.6x to 50x the bet. When the round begins, you play with only blank spaces and money symbols on the reels. The round starts with 3 respins, and any money symbol that lands stays on the screen until the round ends. Each time at least one money symbol appears, the number of respins resets back to 3.
The round continues until no respins remain or all positions on the screen are filled with money symbols. If the screen is completely filled with money symbols, the grand prize of 2,000x the bet is also awarded.
Green Dragon Egg Modifier
If the round is triggered by a green dragon egg, a green row appears at the top of the grid. Only collect and super collect symbols can land there. A collect symbol gathers and pays out the values of all money symbols directly below it. A super collect symbol gathers and pays out the values of all money symbols on the screen.
Red Dragon Egg Modifier
If the round is triggered by a red dragon egg, a red row appears at the top of the grid. Only mini, minor, major, or grand symbols can land there. These symbols fill jackpot meters. Collecting three mini symbols awards 10x the total bet. Collecting four minor symbols awards 20x the total bet. Collecting five major symbols awards 100x the total bet. Collecting six grand symbols awards 2,000x the total bet.
Blue Dragon Egg Modifier
If the round is triggered by a blue dragon egg, a blue row appears at the top of the grid. Only multiplier symbols can land there, with values of x2, x3, or x5. When they land, the multiplier is applied to the money symbols directly below them.
Multiple Dragon Egg Modifiers
If more than one modifier is active in the same round, they are applied in this order: multiplier first, then collect, and finally jackpot.
Ante Bet
You can double your chances of triggering the bonus game by adding 60% to your base bet.
Feature Buy
You can pay 60x the bet for a single Respin feature, or 70x the bet to play the Free Spins with 1, 2, or 3 features. Paying 100x the bet guarantees the respins with two modifiers, and you’ll get all three if you pay 200x the bet.
Final Thoughts on 3 Magic Eggs
Vikings and dragons work perfectly in slot form, but it doesn’t feel like Pragmatic Play has mastered this theme. The game developer has put three cute dragons above the reels and a Viking as one of the higher-paying symbols, which feels kind of random. The gameplay is easy as soon as you get a grip of the bonus game triggering eggs. Just one egg could be enough to trigger the Chest Respin Feature, but the downside is that the trigger happens randomly. In other words, it’s not like games with Scatter Symbols where you know for sure that a feature will trigger if enough symbols appear.
The base game is fairly calm, with regular small wins keeping things ticking over, but the main attraction is the respin feature, especially when multiple modifiers kick in at once. Seeing multipliers boost money symbols before they’re collected or turned into jackpots feels rewarding, and the chance to completely fill the screen keeps the tension high.
However, we can’t help but think that the game feels like a mix of slots from other developers. The bonus game feels like one of many Games Global Power Combo titles, such as Eggz! Power Combo. It may also be that Pragmatic Play has found some inspiration from Push Gaming’s 3 Magic Pots, although that game is played on a bigger grid.
3 Magic Eggs from Pragmatic Play delivers a quirky theme, but it’s pretty cheap on features.
