Bewitched

Bewitched is video slot with 5 reels and 15 active pay lines. It is powered by iSoftBet software provider. I like some of their video slots, but I did not have any luck at all at this game while I was playing it. So yes, it is not my favorite game from iSoftBet software company.

The game has bonus game and free spins feature. The bonus game is triggered when you get at least three bonus symbols anywhere on the reels. Here you have to pick the right potions: you can win cash prizes, free spins or jackpot. I like the bonus game because it offer three different outcomes. I never like video slots with bonus game where you can win just cash prizes or something like that.
Beside bonus game there is also free spins feature. You can get up to 15 free spins in total, during free spins there are no any multipliers and I do not like that. I think the free spins should be played on higher multipliers.

Otherwise the game looks fine, but I did not see anything special about it. The main game was quite boring while I was playing it. It was hard to triggered any bonus game or free spins at all. Sometimes I got some wild symbols on the reels, but I expected higher pay outs after I look the pay out ratio for all wild symbols.

So yes, this review based on my luck which I had when I opened the game. And because of it, I do not think I will play it in the future, I will rather choose some other video slots from iSoftBet software provider where I had better results. I think this game could provide some big winnings, but you will need a lot of luck to catch them. My ratio for Bewitched slot will be 5 out of 10 possible stars here at Askgamblers website.

Last time when I played with BeWitched somehow I was in some kind of magical, fable mood and this slot just came into my mind and I really felt it held something good for me and maybe had a big win. Because iSoftBet is not among the most wide-spread providers I had to quickly find a place where I could play with BeWitched. Normally I don’t deposit for just one game but this time I really saw the positive signs so took the necessary steps and was ready for my lucky day.

This is a really charming, 15-payline game that guides us to a mystical, fantasy, tale like world which is well harmonized to its fantastic graphics. BeWitched is maneuvering at the borderline of my taste to be considered too childish and flippant or just be very cute, entertaining and playable. Luckily, so far it hasn’t crossed the line and stayed on the ‘good side’.

So besides its attractive appearance it’s a progressive Jackpot game. The Jackpot can be won from Merlin bonus game after it triggered by 3 or more specific symbols during normal game. From 8 magical potions we have to pick three elixirs (or 4, 5 depending on the number of triggering bonus icons) what Merlin use up to create an essence that determinate our reward. It can be the Jackpot, free games or coins (the free spins won by bonus can be up to 25 games with x2 multiplier and coins max. 30.000). Don’t have to be fall into despondency if the king prize doesn’t want to reveal itself because for example Scatter can offer great returns, too. (I forgot to mention, when the game starts a witch must be chosen who has important role at Scatter wins). Every time when a Witch appears anywhere on the reels, 2 witches (one of them is the previously selected) battle each other with red and blue lightning and which has more power in her spell and win, determines the players’ reward. If the player’s witch win the battle and on the table there’s only one witch the final result is 3 free spins, 2 witches on the screen means x10 of total bet winning + 6 free games and so on while the best outcome with 5 witches rewards x1000 total bet plus 15 free games. On the other hand if the bad witch predominates: 1 witch-1 free spin, 2-2… and the maximum win can’t exceed the x200 total bet + 5 extra spins parameters. It’s a quite good bonus game with very high potential return.

So my playing time started real well as I was awarded several times €40-€60 by Merlin and the free spins also weren’t against me but I really waited for a big break-through but… I’m afraid still waiting for that. After my balance were climbing upwards at the beginning there was a point since when the mentioned little winnings also started to disappear and 2 hours later I was succeed to zeroed my bankroll.

As always, I spent some great time with BeWitched despite the losses and I couldn’t have saved myself even using the gambling feature. Generally, it’s a high quality game in every aspect and if I have enough time and credits I always love to play with it. But now, I don’t have much time because I think I must have to put my own crystal ball that said it was my lucky day in the dishwasher.

Bewitched is a 15 paylines of magical goodness. On the start of opening the slot I was introduced to both witches where I decided on one which to assist me on my quest.....for cash. The chosen witch I had will be used to trigger small amounts of free spins when a scattered witch symbol appears anywhere on the reels. One scatter always results in the witches battling who conquers that symbol. If my witch wins the duel I get to keep 3 free spins for the price of one scattered witch but if my witch fails taking over that crystal ball then 1 free spin is awarded. Usually everything I win inside these very short fused free spins are about $6 or less. Sometimes these free spins don't hit anything resulting in an unprofitable end.

The bonus triggered when landing 3 wizard symbols gets entrance to make a concoction using the potions shown below. For a $0.90 bet I had 5 free spins resulting from my 3 potions inside the bonus, won some credits to $3 then retriggered the bonus again with a witch scatter on the reels, won for 3 more free spins when my witch triumphed then gotten $4.50 from my final result inside the bonus, commenced free spins to later find another triggered bonus again! The final trigger (3rd), luckily gave me a very huge $45 from my 3 choices of potions! Choosing wisely in the wizard bonus is key to hitting small credits, free spins or enormous prize amounts!

The sad parts about Bewitched is it's only 15 paylines, each reel is jam packed with more than one symbol at a time so it can thwart my efforts to having wins, winnings from free spins can't be doubled so if I received a very low amount I can't change it's fate and worse part is scattered witches always show up by itself, 2 scatters are like finding 4 scatters in a Microgaming slot and I have not come across 3 scatters before. It's a very good game but that's if being lucky is in my deck. Nice graphics, a satisfactory free spins feature, a potentially good bonus game and overall Bewitched gets a 7.5 out of 10!
