Magic Pot Introduction
From Games OS comes Magic Pot, a welcome addition to the virtual world of free online pokies. It is an enchanting journey through Irish Folklore encountering leprechauns, pots of golds and magical crystals. The accompanying music is a toe tapping Irish jig that sets the mood for this Celtic adventure.
All the Blarney
The opening screen depicts a charmed forest inhabited by a mischievous leprechaun standing to the left of the screen. He is suited and booted in emerald green, sporting a bright red beard and is standing on a bed of shamrocks from which he enthusiastically cheers on a win. To the right is a wise old owl sitting in the branch of tree, king of all that he surveys.
The intricate design of the symbols is apparent from the very first spin. There are plump blackberries, a large mug of frothing beer, ripe cherries, the good old hob nail boot and lanterns to name a few. Magic Pot is a standard five reel pokie with twenty-five pay lines. Stakes that can be placed are $0.20, $0.30, $0.40, $0.50, $1.00 and $2.00.
The Luck of the Irish
With all the fancy graphics, the game is deceptively simple and though winnings are small in comparison to other pokies, they are more frequent and can quickly build up. One endearing feature is when there is a winning group, the symbols become animated. One of the most alluring is the bonus depicted by the pot of gold that emits a delicate rainbow.
The shamrock is the wild symbol, and in conjunction with other winning symbols makes a winning combination. This animation is wonderful as the leaves turn into a golden coin embellished with a Celtic knot. The gamble feature is especially delightful, as a little wooden door opens at the base of the Owl’s tree, inviting the player to take a chance. This feature has two options to increase winnings.
The first being to simply choose between black or red, which if correct doubles the prize pot. The second is to choose the colour and the suit of the card that is turned over, this can quadruple the initial stake. It must be noted that if incorrect, then all is lost.
The bonus feature triggered by three pots laden with gold leads to a map of another world, where fortunes can be accumulated by choosing different ancient symbols. This continues until the wrong choice is made.
Reassuringly Simple
The delightful simplicity of the game play of this pokie allows for gamers of all levels to immerse themselves in a joyous romp. The thoughtful and intricate animation allows the player to fully immerse themselves in a magical kingdom festooned with delights. A perfect way to escape the real world.
There is no need to be tied to the desk top either, as game developers Games OS have optimised the game to be played over all mobile devices. Magic Pot is fully enabled for all smartphones and tablets without any loss of features that make this pokie so endearing.
