This interesting video slot has several features which include a wild and a scatter symbols, a Free Spins bonus game and a Mystery bonus game.
Wild in the game is the Lucky Witch symbol and it can act as a substitution for only four symbols which include Witch symbol, Cat symbol, Owl symbol and a Lizard symbol. Furthermore, this symbol doubles the pay-out of any combo it completes as a wild symbol and creates its own winning combos when multiple symbols appear on an enabled pay-line. Also, this symbol creates a wild symbol stack.
The potion bottle is a scatter symbol which completes a winning combo when two or more of these appear on the reels. Wins are calculated by multiplying the scatter combination pay-out by the total number of regular coins bet. When you land three or more of the potions symbols you will trigger Free Spins feature.
Once you activate the Free Spins bonus round you will be awarded with 13 spins. During free spins the Lucky Witch symbol acts as a wild, multiplier symbol and creates a wild stack. Free Spins can be re-triggered during the bonus game and any additional free spins you may win, will be added to the remaining number of free spins. Also, the Mystery bonus game can be activated during this feature.
If you happen to land three Cauldron Mystery Bonus symbols scattered anywhere on the reels 1, 3 and 5 you will activate Mystery bonus game. During this bonus game you can win up to 30.000 coins and once you hit three Cauldrons you will be randomly awarded one of four games: Magic Potion, Pumpkin, Spell Book or Secret Vault Bonus Game. All the bets and pay-lines in the bonus game are the same as the spin which activated the bonus round.
In the Magic Potion bonus game you are displayed 12 bottles and behind each there is a random bonus win amount. If you find Win All bottle, all hidden bonus amount are added to your balance and if you reveal Stop bottle the game will end.

Lucky Witch is one of the most popular Microgaming slots with a mysterious theme which makes it quite addicting to play. The first time I ever decided to play this game was at 32Red, when they organized a special slots tournament with $10,000 to be won for the top placed players.
I didn't think twice and started playing this game. Lucky Witch has 15 paylines and 5 reels. The game features stacked wilds which appear quite easily if you compare them with The Dark Knight for instance. Basically those stacked wilds can make your full screen wild. The potential is there but of course it's very rare for that to happen.
The minimum bet on this game is only 0.15 euro. During the tournament I was nowhere close to being lucky. Although I did experience the free spins, I won a lousy 10x bet size and knew I wouldn't win anything during that tournament. However, I took my revenge with my own money a few weeks later.
I played 1.50 euros per spin and after like 50 spins I saw the first 3 reels turning complete wild followed by two green salamander symbols. It was good for 225 euros in only a couple of spins. I love when games make it for you possible to even win big in the base game. On reels 1, 3 and 5 there is a Mystery Bonus symbol btw.
Although it can be quite confusing what you will end up with, since there are apparently 1 of 4 different bonus games you could potentially end up playing - it isn't called mystery bonus for nothing I guess lol. I ended up playing this bonus once where I had to pick a book and saw my betsize multiplied by 32x. A very nice win for a bonus game.
Last but not least there is also the scatter symbols (blue potion). You need to collect 3, 4 or 5 of these symbols to win 13 free spins. I haven't been successful to trigger these so far while playing with my own money, only in tournament mode. Maybe in the future I will hopefully :D
My final rating for Lucky Witch is 8/10.
