Magic Mirror Slots
Magic Mirror is a standard strictly online video slot game that works best on pretty much any decent device that can handle HTML5 coding (no flash needed, after all!) with authority. On a more exciting note, and we don’t get to say this often, there are 25 paylines distributed in sets of 5 all throughout the screen.
- Magic Mirror is a video slot powered by Edict (Merkur Gaming) software provider, and has 5 reels and 10 pay-lines. This slot is inspired with several different themes, but the most predominant one is probably the story about Snow White, Evil Queen and mirror, mirror on the wall. The reels are set against the forest landscape and a castle backdrop.
- Magic Mirror Deluxe is an obvious improvement on Magic Mirror, but there’s still a long way to go before either of these slot machines live up to the magic of fairy tales. There’s potential, that we can see, particularly in the free games feature, but it’s never truly unleashed.

Magic Mirror is an online slot game by software provider Merkur that has pretty much become a classic over the years. It’s rather simplistic, yet the graphics still offer pretty decent quality. In addition, there’s also a serene, lovely backdrop to help convey the overall atmosphere. A tall castle tower stands in the distance, to the left of the reels. And on the right, against the blue and orange colors of the sunset is a dense pine forest. You can have a closer look at the tower in the paytable, by the way. The value boxes are transparent, so there will be plenty to see. What we regret about Magic Mirror, though, is the fact that there is no actual soundtrack in the background. Instead, you will be spinning the reels to the generic sound of pretty much any other slot out there. But at least the visuals can make up for what this game lacks in music.
The layout in Magic Mirror is pretty common, featuring the regular 5 reel by 3 row grid. And the number of paylines here isn’t too impressive, either, though it’s rather typical for this developer. You will have a total number of 10 available paylines. These are also fixed, so you won’t have the opportunity to regulate or adjust them. But the betting amounts here are fairly liberal and start at a low of 10c per single spin. The highest amount you will be able to wager on these reels is $20 per spin. But now with all that out of the way, let’s have a better look at the symbols in this game.To begin with, we have the traditional lower value playing card icons. They’re all very nicely styled with neat details and Celtic knot patterns on them. The symbols include A, K, Q, J and 10. Following these we have a pretty significant bump in value for the Celtic knot work ring and the large book. Then there is the unicorn symbol and finally – the princess, wearing a green cloak. She is also the highest value symbol on these reels, offering up to 500 times your stake. However, she’s not the game’s Wild, contrary to what you might expect. The Wild comes in the form of the magic mirror with a gold frame and a lion head above it. It’s the second highest paying symbol here, which will be able to replace any of the other symbols. That way the Wild can help you create more winning combos and it can also appear in any position on the reels to make sure that happens. And better yet – there are no exceptions as to the symbols the Wild can substitute for.
The Magic Mirror Wild symbol we mentioned earlier also happens to double as the game’s Scatter. So, besides replacing other symbols, it can also offer you payouts without necessarily needing to land on an active payline. And as a Scatter, it will also be able to trigger the game’s single special feature – the freespins bonus round. But for that to happen, you will need to land a minimum of 3 of these symbols at the same time, anywhere on the reels. As a result of this, you will receive a total of 10 freespins. However, before they begin, one of the symbols will be randomly selected to become the special symbol. Then, this symbol will expand to cover its entire reel during the freespins round whenever it lands on the reels and can form a winning combination. And what’s more, you can also retrigger the freespins feature by landing another 3 or more Wild Scatters.In addition to this, Magic Mirror also has a Gamble feature. You can take advantage of it after any winning spin and it will allow you to gamble your prize and potentially increase it. Furthermore, you can even choose from two available side games. One of them is the regular simple ladder game. It will also allow you to play it safe and gamble only half of your amount. Alternatively, you can also play the card game. It’s just as simple and requires you to only select the color red or black. If it matches that of the playing card, you will double your amount and you can move on to a next attempt. But if it’s a wrong guess, you will lose your amount and the side feature will come to an end.
