Merlin’s Mania by Hacksaw is a video slot that features a grid of 6×5, where players can score wins by landing a minimum of eight matching symbols, referred to as “scatter pays.” The game includes a “cascading wins” mechanic, which enables winning symbols to disappear, making room for new ones to fall into place. Set in a magical world linked to the wizard Merlin, it showcases classic mystical elements such as columns, amphorae, spell books, and mysterious powders, all depicted in dark, gothic hues.
A key feature of the game is the “Mystery Symbol” function, which can add between 2 and 30 mystery symbols on each spin. These mystery symbols can transform into regular paid symbols, Wilds, Adder Wilds, or Activator Wilds. The Adder Wild serves as a Wild and boosts the global win multiplier, which can vary from +1 to +100. The Activator Wild applies the current multiplier to every win it helps create. During the free spins mode, players may find Sticky Activator Wilds that stay in place until the free spins are finished.
There are two unique free spins modes to choose from. The first, called “Wizard’s Favor,” activates with three scatter symbols, granting eight spins starting with a multiplier of x1, and every additional scatter provides an extra spin. The second mode, “Merlin’s Insanity,” requires four scatter symbols to trigger, offering ten spins with an initial global multiplier of x5 and the chance to earn extra spins from additional scatters.
Additionally, the game features a “Bonus Buy” option, which may not be available in all areas, allowing players to directly purchase certain bonus features. Available options include FeatureSpins to improve bonus chances, Mystery Madness FeatureSpins with guaranteed symbols, or immediate entry into the free spins of either Wizard’s Favor or Merlin’s Insanity. Players can achieve a maximum win of up to 12,000 times their bet.
You can play it for real money.
