Developed by Neon Valley Studios and available at online casinos powered by Microgaming as of December 2021, Arctic Enchantress is a slot machine.
The game transports players to a mystical realm in the heart of a snowy forest, where they may battle alongside a stunning enchantress for up to 5,000 times their wager.
Style of Slots
There are 243 chances to win on Arctic Enchantress’s 5 reels and 3 row gameboard.
The Win Booster has a somewhat positive effect on the game’s RTP, increasing it from 96.08% to 96.10%.
Extremely high game volatility may be annoying for the casual player who intends to give the game only a few attempts before giving up.
Each spin might cost as little as $0.20 or as much as $50.00.
When the Win Booster is on, the lowest wager increases to $0.30 and the highest bet increases to $75.00, making the game suitable for a broad variety of players.
When it comes to aesthetics, this slot machine is right up there with the best of them; it features stunning visuals, moving pictures (both in the backdrop and the symbols themselves), excellent sound design, and a generally polished package.
The menu is likewise top notch, having everything in its appropriate place and with clear labels.
All the qualities we need are present: There is a “Max Bet” button, “Autoplay” for up to 100 spins, “Quick Spins,” and a “Audio” toggle.
Each of the sound effects and the music may be disabled independently from the main menu.
If you’d rather not use the slot’s navigational buttons to select your wager, it also has a bet menu.
Slot Functions
Each Link&WinTM icon that lands on the game board is added to the Link&Win meter, increasing the player’s chances of winning. In order to activate this function, a player must land between 6 and 14 symbols on the board, and the meter is reset after each spin. Cash prizes are assigned to each symbol. Jackpot Ice Orb icons appear during the feature and give out either a minor, major, or mega jackpot at random. The 5000x mega jackpot is triggered by landing 15 Link&Win symbols. The standard three spins of the reels with the triggering symbols locked in place apply to the start of the feature as well. If another Link&Win symbol is landed during those spins, it, too, is retained in place and the player is given another set of three respins. Once the player has not landed any symbols after three respins or once the gameboard has been filled with a total of fifteen symbols, the feature will finish.
When a column is completely full of Link&Win symbols, a special function called Column BoostTM is triggered. Each subsequent spin while this feature increases the cash rewards within the enhanced column. The Link&Win feature is the only time this function is available.
The Win Booster Function: When used, a permanent “free” Link&Win Symbol is added to the Win Meter. In this approach, the player requires only 5 symbols to activate the Link&Win bonus. But now you have to wager 1.5 times as much.
Scatters award free games; 10, 15, or 20 may be won for 3, 4, or 5 of them. During the bonus round, if the player gets another 3, 4, or 5 scatters, they will receive 10, 15, or 20 more free spins.
We managed to land nearly nothing throughout our free spins, leading to a total of 10 spins with a payout of roughly 11x.
In the standard game, a partially landed Wild can nudge to fill an entire reel at random. The Wild symbol always activates this bonus throughout the free games.
Verdict
In terms of aesthetics, this is easily one of the best slot machines we’ve ever tested and written about.
With features like the Link&WinTM feature, which can provide up to 20 free spins and the possibility to win an additional 20 free spins, this online slot is sure to wow.
Although the volatility is quite high, players seeking a high-quality slot will enjoy the work that Neon Valley Studios has put into this title.
