Before you immerse yourself in this spooky fairy tale, you should adjust your bets. By clicking on "Three Horizontal Lines" button on the left hand side from the reels you will open the betting panel. With "Lines" tab you will set the number of lines, and with "Bet" you can set coins size which ranges from 0.01 to 10. "Auto" tab will turn the reels without interruption for a chosen number of times. "Spin" tab is located on the right hand side from the reels, and is used to turn the reels with current total wager.
The Wild symbol in the game is the Joker, and it substitutes for all the symbols except for the Scatter. When one or more Wild substitutes in a win, the highest one is being paid. Wild can form winning combos on its own.
Purple-haired Witch is the Scatter symbol and if you land 2 or more it will form a winning combo and award you a scatter win amount. All scatter wins are multiplied by total wager. If you land 3 or more Scatters anywhere on the reels you will trigger Mirrored Pays Free Spins.
Once you trigger Mirrored Pays free spins you will get 10, 15 or 20 spins, depending on the number triggering symbols. If during the feature you land another 3 or more Scatters, you will win additional free spins.

In December 2015 "Genesis Gaming" has bet on duality of human existence and it has decided to release its slot "Magic Mirror", a slot of 5 x 3 reels and 25 paylines that has two different sets of reels, one for the base game and another for the round of free spins; the first one is gloomy, images of its symbols are old and poor people engaged in jobs of servitude, and additionally this set of reels is accompanied with some sad and melancholic music used as background that can easily get a slump in the player’s mood, rates of these symbols are weak since the idea of poverty during the base game is part of the concept of this game, the idea is you can feel the contrast just when you can get 3, 4 or 5 scatters with the image of gypsy needed to pass to enjoy of 10, 15 or 20 free games respectively, and here is where the new set of reels appears to show such contrast since here they are symbols with images of people of royalty that look attractive, younger and rich, and payouts are drastically higher than those offered by poor characters who inhabit the parallel world.
Theoretically winnings made by the player during the round of free spins should be much higher than those normally obtained during the base game, but what I have observed is that during the free round symbols have better prices but hitting average decreases radically, in my case, I'm talking about a total profit of $ 1.80 and $ 1 for my first two rounds of 15 and 10 free spins, played both at a bet level of $ 0.01 per line ($0.20 total bet); I think these numbers speak for themselves.
Putting things in perspective, "Mirror Magic" does not have any bonus round, the wild symbol is somewhat lazy, payouts during the base game are fairly modest due to weak paytable made that way purposely, the round of free spins has a great paytable but hitting average during it is really low and if all these were not enough, the game has a taciturn, gloomy and depressing atmosphere that makes playing it not so funny, I honestly do not know what It will be the general reaction of players at this video slot, but personally I think the concept of this game is quite risky, yet I wish "Genesis Gaming" good luck with this slot since it is an innovative company that was even awarded this year 2015.
