If this short description is not enough to convince you to give Genie’s Touch a try, stick around and read our full review of the game to find out more about its universe, gameplay and much more…
Legendary settings
As mentioned previously, Genie’s Touch takes place in a fantasy universe heavily inspired by the 1001 Nights stories.
The reels occupy most of the game screen, but you can still catch a glimpse of the colourful background. Elegant marble columns with complicated ornaments can be seen superposed over a starry night sky, with tones of dark blue and purple bathing the whole scene. The result is simply beautiful, and very much in tune with the theme of the game.
The soundtrack matches the rest, with a perhaps stereotypical Middle Eastern rhythmic tune. The overall result is efficient and well-designed, a truly immersive universe.
Basic rules to get started
Genie’s Touch makes use of a classic Quickspin setup, featuring five spinning reels with three symbols appearing on each of them.
The game features 20 fixed paylines in total running across the reels in all directions. You cannot choose a lower number of paylines to bet on. Use the command buttons located at the bottom of the game screen, right below the reels, to adjust your bet per line. The gear button will help you access other practical settings to make your gaming session more comfortable. Remember that your future cash rewards will depend on both the nature of the symbols lining up on paylines and the size of your wager. In other words, you have to play big to have a chance at winning big! You are of course welcome to modify your settings at any time during the game. Keep an eye on the displays on the left side of the screen to keep track of your total credit balance.
Once you feel ready, hit the yellow Play button located on the right side of the screen to set the reels into motion. Cross your fingers and hope for big wins! Your winnings will be automatically added to your credit total after each spin. And if you would rather keep your settings constant and play without interruptions, you can try out the Auto mode. Click on the corresponding switch to let the computer take control for a while; the reels will spin on their own over and over until you choose to come back to single-spin mode. This is the perfect option for you if you want to make the most of the game’s graphics and unique atmosphere without having to worry about adjusting your settings again and again. Choose the game mode that fits your style and mood best.
List of basic reel symbols
There are ten different basic symbols on the reels of Genie’s Touch in total, all more or less related to the game universe.
The first group of six symbols consists of a simple array of jewels. White, Blue, Green, Pink, Yellow and Orange, their simple design is rather uninspired and their payouts low. However, they will appear frequently on the reels and you will have many occasions to score winning combinations with them.
The remaining four symbols are beautiful and mysterious characters, each with their own colour scheme and unique design. Keep an eye out for them to win big!
Special features
The golden Wild symbol is able to replace any of the icons mentioned above to help you score even more winning combinations across the reels! Wild combinations are also worth some extra cash on their own.
Three or more Bonus Scatter anywhere on screen will initiate ten Free Spins, which are the best way to win extra without putting anything up front!
Finally, the Magic Lamp triggers the Genie’s Touch feature, where a random symbol will be selectedto expand on the reels and trigger as many extra winning combinations as possible at once.
Genie-us, or not?
Genie’s Touch has some undeniable aesthetic qualities and a true potential for big wins. The Bonuses are however rather classic and players looking for originality might feel a little let down.
