African Magic Introduction
African Magic, one of the many themed pokies from the developers at Casino Technology, takes you deep into the heart of Africa in search of adventure, fun and some serious wins. Featuring up to 25 paylines, free spins and a Super Games bonus round, African Magic offers a huge number of chances to accumulate plenty of credits and have a great time, all while learning about the incredible and fascinating history and cultures of this great continent.
Look and feel
From the outset, the theme of African Magic is clear. The reels are set against a dimly-lit savannah scene; however, the game’s music and symbols are much more upbeat and vibrant. Tribal-themed music, complete with panpipes, chanting and bongo drums, accompanies your spins. Players will encounter traditional ceremonial African masks, leopards and a Nubian princess, while the reels are decorated with beautiful tribal patterns.
Format
African Magic sports 25 paylines across five reels and three rows. The number of active lines can be set to one, 25, or anywhere in between. Coin denominations range from $0.01 to $0.2 and there are six bet multipliers from which to choose, ranging from 1 x and 2 x up to 20 x so that you can choose precisely how much you want to wager on each spin.
With settings maxed out, you will be betting 500 credits per spin. The pokie also features a Double Up gamble game - go head-to-head with the dealer and guess the colour of the hidden card to double your winnings. If you are feeling particularly lucky, try guessing the suit to quadruple your winnings! There is also the option to only gamble half your winnings if you would prefer to get a feel for the feature first.
Magical symbols
Winning spins are created by lining up three or more matching symbols on an active payline. Fortunately, regular symbols are grouped in pairs and can be used to land wins together; for example, a line comprising five Jacks or Queens, in any combination, will pay out 2,000 credits if playing with maximum bet settings.
At the other end of the scale, five brown-reddish African masks on any active line will earn you a very handsome 25,000 credits. Should you manage to land five African princesses on a line, you are looking at a jaw-dropping 200,000 credits. Today could be your lucky day!
Double wilds
In an innovative twist, African Magic features two wild symbols. Both substitute for all other regular symbols to help you create more winning combinations. One is the Nubian princess, who - as we already know - is also very valuable on her own. The other is the leopard, which has extra features.
Make a winning combination with one leopard wild and your winnings are instantly doubled; even better, if you win with two leopards helping you, your reward is quadrupled!
Bonus features
The scatter item is the glowing African hut. Three huts anywhere on the reels not only trigger 15 free spins but also all winnings from these spins are instantly doubled! Land three huts on the reels during the feature to unlock the Super Games round, in which the playing card symbols no longer appear, leaving only the higher value symbols for you to win unbelievable prizes!
