Lifting an ancient curse and conjuring up a big payday is the goal for players in Ozwin’s Jackpots, the latest game to hit the virtual online casino shelves from Yggdrasil Gaming.
On general release now, this magical adventure is played using a 5 reel, 20 payline game engine and comes with Yggdrasil Gaming’s usual standout design as well as some potentially exciting gameplay. There’s a genuinely fantastical feel to the sound and imagery on display here.
The star is Ozwin the Owl who awards payouts of some 200 times your bet if you land 5 across a payline. The wise old owl is joined on the reels by his trusty apprentice and a selection of magic-themed symbols. It’s all rather lovely.
There are 2 features on offer here. First up is the Spellbook Bonus Game feature which is a variation of the pick me round. It too offers potential payouts of 50 or 500 times your bet on the triggering spin. Keep on picking books until you land 1 that unleashes an evil spell which brings the feature to a close. If you collect 5 same-coloured crystals you will trigger the free spins feature (described below).
The Jackpot Free Spins feature can be triggered from the Spellbook Bonus Game feature or by landing 3 or more of the blue orb (you’ll pocket 50 or 500 times your bet if you land 4 or 5 on the triggering spin). 10 free spins are awarded, complete with a 3x multiplier which trebles all payouts. Collect special coloured orbs during this feature and you’ll have a shot at landing 1 of 5 jackpot prizes!
Like most video slots in the Yggdrasil catalogue, Ozwin’s Jackpots is a treat for the senses. It’s not just a pretty face though as the free spins and Spell Book Bonus rounds offer some very decent action. It might not be the most volatile game you’ll see but the combination of high spec imagery, a classy, backing track and a pair of interesting extra with jackpot possibilities make it a very alluring game – read the Ozwin’s Jackpots video slot review for more info.
Ozwin’s Jackpots is on general release now but I recommend you play it at Mr Green Casino.
