  • Log into your Wizard Slots account, launch the game and wait for it to load.
  • Click on the 3-bar Menu button below the reels to open up the paytable and the game's rules and also adjust the sound.
  • Click on the Stacked Coins button to adjust your stake, and also choose the number of paylines you would like to play on. Stakes range from £0.01 to £5 per spin, and you can play on up to 25 paylines. Your total bet depends on how many paylines you select to play on. 
  • Then once you're ready to spin the reels, press the Spin button.

Winning combinations form if you land 3 matching symbols, starting from the leftmost reel to the right, on active paylines. 

The most valuable symbols include the Red 7 and the Blue 7 symbols worth 100x and 50x your stake for a 5-of-a-kind combination, respectively.

The medium-paying symbols include the triple Bar and double Bar symbols, worth up to 40x and 30x your stake, respectively.

Special symbols are 2 Scatters; a Scatter Newspaper and a Scatter Logo. 

Scatter Symbols

Scatter symbols can help trigger the Prize Pick and the Free Games features.

The Scatter Logo also act as a Wild symbol because it can replace other symbols to help you complete potentially winning combinations.

Prize Pick Feature

The Prize Pick feature triggers if 3 or more Scatter Logo symbols land anywhere on the reels.

You are awarded a number of picks equal to the number of triggering Scatter symbols. 

So, for example, if you triggered the feature with 5 Scatter symbols, you will receive 5 Prize Picks. Each pick can award cash prizes worth up to 500x your stake.

You can trigger the Prize Picks feature from both the base game and the Free Games feature.

Free Games Prize Pick Feature

The Free Games Prize Pick feature triggers if 3 or more Scatter Newspaper symbols land anywhere on the reels.

Like the Prize Pick feature, you receive a number of picks equivalent to the triggering Scatter symbols. However, before your picks begin, you receive 6 Free Games with a 2x multiplier. 

You could receive 3 Free Games or a 1x, 2x, or 3x multiplier on each pick. 

You can retrigger the Free Games Prize feature up to 15 times.

Return To Player (RTP): 95.2%

The RTP is a theoretical value and is shown as a percentage. It’s used to describe the percentage of money wagered a particular casino game may pay back to players over a certain period of time.

For example, if a game had a RTP of 92%, in theory, this would mean that for every £100 wagered, the game could return £92 back to players in potential winnings. However, it is important to note that winnings are completely random, and players are not guaranteed to receive this.
