Aztec Magic Deluxe Slot
Although Aztec civilisation only lasted from the 14th to 16th centuries, they have left their mark across Central America, with huge cities and pyramids dotted around the region. These may now be largely in ruins, but they still provide an impressive sight, with vine-covered temples giving an indication of the riches that once made the civilisation into one of the most powerful in the world. The fascination with their culture remains to this day as can be seen in the many Aztec themed online slot machines that you can find, and not wanting to be left out, the BGAMING games developer has their own Aztec Magic slot now available.
BGAMING is now known as BGaming and they provide a complete casino package to operators, including back office support, banking facilities and a wide selection of unique games. Perhaps surprisingly, given the name, they are not a Swiss company but are based in Belarus and Curacao, from where they develop their online and mobile optimised games, while clients who use their casino package will have access to over 2,000 slots from a multitude of different suppliers.
The Aztec Magic Deluxe video slot is a good example of their bespoke titles however, with beautifully designed symbols tumbling down over five reels and players scooping prizes whenever matching images land adjacent to one another across any of the 15 paylines. The reels are set within the walls of one of these vine-covered ruins, lit by torches on each column and an imposing pyramid can be seen in the jungle behind. The inhabitants of this city award features such as wild substitutions, scatter pays, free spins and multipliers, while Aztec Magic Deluxe can work magic on your bankroll if luck is with you in the optional gamble feature round.
No Sacrifice Needed
Carved stone effect playing card symbols pay out from 2x, 10x, or 25x the line stake when the number 10 is seen across a payline, to 8x, 30x and 75x when the A appears. The unique picture symbols only have to land on reels one and two from the left side to pay you a prize, and we see a silver coin returning between 3x and 100x you line stake, while a bronze idol pays up to 300x and a gold coin is worth a high limit of 500x your line bet.
The Aztec King pays out the top prizes when he stops across the reels, awarding you with 40x your line bet when he’s on the first two reels and 5,000x if you’re lucky enough to see this serious-looking character right across a line. He’s also the wild symbol, acting as others if he is then able to complete combinations, while also tripling the base value of the line. There’s even a nice animation to watch as he raises his arms in celebration of your win.
A young woman could be a priestess or could be heading off to be sacrificed, we don’t really know, but she’s the scatter symbol of the game, paying out whenever she stops in any three, four, or five places at once. You also get treated to 10 free spins and while we’re always happy to be awarded bonus games, there’s no special mix of symbols on the reels, or multipliers in effect throughout this feature.
Multiplying wins by Magic
Winnings can be gambled in an optional feature, with the choice to try and double a prize by guessing the colour of a face down playing card or quadrupling it by picking the correct suit. If you win the gamble, you get to collect the new prize or play again up to five times, and of course, if you lose the round at any point, the original prize is lost along with anything gained so far in the gamble feature.
Deluxe Betting Options
While it’s possible to play any number of paylines, there’s not much call for activating anything less than all 15, as fate usually lands a big winning combination on inactive lines, which can be frustrating to say the least. It only costs from 0.15 to play all lines anyway and with a high return to player percentage you will, on average, get most of that back as winnings.
The maximum bet is set at 150.00 per spin and of course, at higher stakes, the winnings will be that much bigger as well, so if you’re feeling lucky, just click the Max Bet button and see what prizes you can collect.
Among the other options that can be activated on the control panel are the Autoplay spins, and the soundtrack, which isn’t Aztec themed but will add a bit of atmosphere as you’re spinning the reels. If you’re playing Aztec Magic Deluxe on an Android, Windows or Apple-powered mobile device, a little of the background detail will be lost, but the gameplay and features are just as rewarding.
Carry on up the Jungle
Ancient Aztecs are still making an impact in the world of online casino slot machines and there’s a whole collection of themed games available. One of our favourites is the Aztec Temple video slot from Join Games, which features classic stone carvings set deep in the jungle. The five reels and 15 paylines uncover extra winning combinations when a wild symbol appears and there’s up to 20 free spins, with all wins multiplied by three times to enjoy whenever the scatter symbol lands. A grimacing stone face takes you to a special pick-a-prize bonus round, where you win instant coin multipliers by clicking on different faces, winning up to ten times the triggering bet.
The Aztec empire was famously rich, with their love of gold perhaps being part of their downfall, but anyone who wants to collect riches, hopefully without any downsides, should take the reels of Realtime Gaming’s Aztec’s Millions for a few spins.
This classic slot game has a massive progressive jackpot that can be won in an instant when the game logo appears on all 15 symbol positions at once. Don’t get too upset if you fail to win the jackpot, as this slot also comes with up to 25 free spins with bet multipliers and a wild symbol that brings in extra winnings in this five reel, 25-line game.
A Magic Jungle Adventure
BGaming are well practiced in the art of developing slot machines with style and substance, so it’s no surprise to find that Aztec Magic Deluxe has plenty of both. It looks good, has some nice animations to go along with the spinning of the reels and it’s fully certified as being fair and reliable, so there’s no worries about sacrificing your bankroll unfairly.
A useful Provability screen can be summoned from the command bar, which gives details about average payouts over the course of a round although you can practice free Aztec Magic Deluxe video slots and see for yourself how it all works before making cash wagers.
We would have liked to see a bit more happen during the free spins games, but it’s hard to complain when you are enjoying extra winning chances at no cost. The high-paying wild symbol appears quite frequently, and we had lots of regular wins from the playing card and coin symbols, so we’re sure that this slot machine is going to appeal to anyone who likes the classic theme.
