Luck & Magic

Luck & Magic is a new slot game from developer Bgaming, and it’s quite an interesting one, featuring a top-notch deep fantasy theme and utterly simple yet entertaining gameplay.

Bgaming has always been somewhat of an expert in terms of game design, and once again the studio manages to impress us with their skills. The design of the Luck & Magic slot and its style in general really reminded me of the popular video card game Hearthstone. Here, the reels spin in a card-folding manner, and the soundtrack is really similar to the main theme of Blizzard’s creation. Overall, the team definitely deserves the highest praise from us for creating outstanding visuals and sounds for the Luck & Magic slot. It’s a solid 10 out of 10 on our scale.

The math model, however, fails to produce an equal impression. The volatility is high, but the max win is rather low clocking in at only 999x the bet. Due to the brutal variance, you won’t receive payouts too often here. Precisely, wins occur at a rate of 12.28%, which is roughly 1 in every 10 spins. Anyway, the RTP is solid at 96.23%, which is above average.

The Luck & Magic slot plays across classic 3×3 reels, producing only 5 ways to play on each spin. Eight different regular symbols appear on those reels, including lower-paying A-10 card ranks and three character symbols, namely an enchantress, a knight, and an orc warrior. Combinations of three of the same symbols are worth from 1x to 60x the bet.

Luck & Magic Slot Features

Additionally, there are bonus symbols included, presented by an old wizard. When 3 such symbols appear simultaneously on the reels, a Bonus Game is triggered. The bonus game in Luck & Magic slot is as simple as the base one. Once activated, players are given a selection of five face-down cards, and the objective is to pick one to reveal a bet multiplier value, which can be anything up to 999x.

Waiting for the 3 bonus symbols to appear at once may definitely take some time, so Luck & Magic offers players an opportunity to activate the bonus immediately via Buy Feature. This has a fixed cost of 80x the total bet. However, the RTP value is decreased to 95.99% during the buy bonus.

Review Summary

Simple doesn’t essentially mean unentertaining, and Bgaming’s Luck & Magic slot is solid proof for the statement. While being stripped to basics, it still manages to provide a delightful gaming experience with its first-class fantasy style. All up, we believe it’s leaning towards unmissable for players really into the theme.
