We can tell a lot from just two words of this title – Panda Magic. It’s focusing on a magical theme, obviously, and with a panda involved, it looks as though the creator has worked an animal theme in there as well. Is all as it seems? We are going to find out as we put this slot game to the test.
Do we know who the developer is?
We do, and we can point to RTG – or Realtime Gaming to be clear – as the creator of this online slot.
They’re always keen to supply a demo
And we have another one in store for us in this game as well.
Theme information for Panda Magic
This game looks wonderful, and it really does capture the magical theme in action – and yes, of course, the lead character is a panda.
A bigger design from RTG
This one takes on a life of its own and presents us with a magical game with purple tones and detailed symbols. It’s one of those games you do need to look at for a bit before you attempt to play it.
Let’s begin playing the Panda Magic slot
The game has five reels, but we have one extra icon on each – with four in play rather than three.
The game logo takes on the wild role, and this replaces everything too. There is a random feature connected to this, as the wild can occasionally expand to complete the reel it lands on… but don’t expect it as you never know when it could happen.
If you spot the magic ticket on the reels, you’ve spotted the scatter symbol. You need at least two to unlock a scatter prize.
Does this slot have paylines?
No as they’ve gone for an All Ways Pays idea instead. The screen size means we have more than you might imagine too, given they’re using a 5 x 4 grid.
How much does it cost to bet on the game?
All Ways Pays slots always have a fixed spin bet, and you can then use a multiple of that to bet more if you want to. The minimum to play with here is 50 cents per spin. There are much bigger wagers as well, with the largest coming in at $250.
Don’t forget to check the paytable
We hope we’re covering everything for you here, but you should still adopt the habit of checking through the paytable before your first spin of the reel set.
Bonus potential
This is zero as there are no bonuses in this game. However, you might spot an extra feature in the free spins, which follow.
Panda Magic free spins
Three bonus ticket scatters bring a generous 20 free games. You’ll get more if you can find more scatters too. You’ll receive 25 for four of them and an impressive 30 games if you get five scatters to trigger the feature. All possibilities have a 2x prize multiplier throughout.
There is a chance that the More Magic feature could trigger as well. This is an extra bonus involving more freebies. If you reach it, each reel receives one, two, or three extra wild symbols. If things really go your way, one of those wilds might be an expanding one.
What’s the possible RTP?
We have seen several sources quoting the figure 96%, so that falls about right for the minimum we like to see in online slot games.
Our rating after playing Panda Magic
This does feel magical in an entertaining way, never mind the theme. It’s certainly worth 8.5 points out of 10, with the free spin feature offering lots of them – and the chance of those extra spins too.
Find five wilds for the best prize
Assuming there are no multipliers in play, you can receive 1,000x your line bet for five wild symbols on a line.
Demo play in this slot game
We would suggest playing for long enough to get into the free spin round. Hopefully, you might get the More Magic feature while you’re there too, just so you can see how that works.
Will you progress to some real magic on the reels?
Only you know what you’ll do once you’ve tried the game, but we had a great time with it.
Can you find it in a mobile casino?
You should find you can play Panda Magic on smartphones and tablets for iOS or Android.
