Hacksaw's Merlin’s Alchemy is a video slots game featuring a 6-reel, 5-row layout that immerses players in a world of magical alchemy. Set within Merlin’s laboratory, the game showcases potions, flasks, and enchanting symbols as the wizard seeks to uncover transformed treasures. Instead of conventional paylines, the game utilizes a scatter pays system, allowing wins to occur with matching symbols in any position across the grid. The cascading reels mechanic enhances gameplay; winning combinations lead to the removal of those symbols, making way for new ones that can potentially create additional wins.
Mystery Symbols play a crucial role in the game, appearing during both the base game and free spins. When activated, these symbols transform into either a single regular paying symbol or one of several special symbols. The game includes various Wild symbols, such as a standard Wild that substitutes for paying symbols, an Activator Wild that introduces a global win multiplier, and a Sticky Activator Wild that remains in place throughout free spins. Potions act as modifiers for multipliers, with the green potion adding to the global multiplier and the red potion enhancing its current value.
Landing 3, 4, or 5 scatter symbols in a cascading sequence triggers Free Spins, awarding 8, 10, or 12 spins respectively. During the free spins round, players will encounter more frequent Mystery Symbols, and the global multiplier retains its value between spins and cascades. Additionally, a Feature Buy option is available where allowed, offering various bonus buys that can either boost the chances of triggering free spins or directly initiate the Free Spins feature, including an option that starts with an enhanced global multiplier. The game offers a maximum win of 10,000 times your bet.
