You create a winning combination by landing 3 or more of the same symbol types on adjacent reels starting at the far left. The higher paying symbols award a win at just two of the same symbol types.

The lower paying symbols are 10, J, Q, K and A. The higher paying symbols are a ring, a cauldron, a book and Merlin himself. The symbol showing a staff with a red orb is the game's wild and scatter symbol.

Wild Symbol

The game's scatter symbol is also the game's wild symbol which helps to create more winning combinations by substituting for other symbols. The only symbol it doesn’t substitute for is the expanding symbol.

Morgana Wild & Multiplier

The Morgana Wild can land on all reels during the spins and as a stacked symbol. Like the scatter/wild symbol, it helps to create more winning combinations by substituting for other symbols. If you land it fully stacked, the Morgana Multiplier is activated, where it randomly awards 2X, 3X, 5X or 8X applied to the current spin. It can be activated within both the base and bonus game and is also applied to any scatter/wild wins.

Free Spins

If you land 3 or more scatter symbols, the Free Spins feature is activated. You are then welcomed with 10 free spins and by landing 3 during the bonus game, you receive additional free spins. Before you can start using your free spins, a random paying symbol will be selected as the special expanding symbol.

Expanding Symbol

Once you have obtained your special expanding symbol, you can start spinning the reels. Depending on whether you have a lower or higher paying symbol as the special expanding symbol, results in you needing at least 3 or 2 of this symbol types respectively to create a win. They don’t have to land in adjacent positions and when landed, they will expand to cover the entire reels to create more winning combinations. If you have a reel filled with the expanding symbol, it creates a win by itself without needing more symbols on adjacent positions.

Gamble

Once you have created a win, you can choose to use the Gamble feature. You can choose between guessing the right color or suit on a card and if you guess correctly, you double or quadruple your win. You can gamble up to 5 times, where you can get a total maximum win of 250X the bet.

Merlin and the Ice Queen Morgana Slot Conclusion

In this slot, we once again get to enjoy a fast-paced and lucrative gaming adventure with the famous wizard Merlin. It is a slot that has most of the similarities to previous slot versions with the blue wizard. Where the expanding symbols are the star of the game when it comes to scooping up big wins, but this time that feature is accompanied by some other delightful features that make it possible to win much more than before. In the previous version you could win up to 5000X and 10000X respectively, but within this one they have increased the potential maximum win to 20000X the bet. Within the base game we get to enjoy spins, where the design has been given a polish and better touch. Within the base game, the scatter symbol is also the wild symbol as in previous versions, but the big difference this time is that we are also introduced to a Morgana Wild. This wild can land stacked and if it lands fully stacked, you get to enjoy a multiplier of between 2X to 8X applied to the wins during the current spins that it is part of which can bring festive extra wins. It can be activated within both the base and bonus game, which with its different features becomes a magical companion in the quest for the bigger wins.

When activating the free spins feature, a special expanding symbol is selected. When you land the right amount of this symbol on the reels, which by the way don’t have to be on adjacent reels, the expanding feature is activated. Then all of this special expanding symbol will expand to cover the entire reels. This results in gigantic wins being created quickly during this feature. Assuming the RTP is 96.20%, this is a good level of RTP to use and the medium/high volatility can create sudden bonanzas. Much is the same in this slot compared to previous versions, but with the small but essential calibrations that have taken place regarding Morgana's Wild & Multiplier features, as well as the increase of the max win to 20,000X, it makes up for a great sequel in this saga. Without risking damaging the previously lovable concept within the Rise of Merlin, they have cleverly added small details that will make this game a natural transition from the previous version.

Merlin and the Ice Queen Morgana is a slot where we once again get to enjoy a bonus game with expanding symbols, but where Morgana adds an extra magical touch to the spins with the help of her wilds and multipliers.
