Potion of Madness – Overview
Play’n Go has released a new online slot games called Potion of Madness, which uses the theme of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. One of those classic tales that most people have heard of.
And a theme that had been done several times on slot games, because the duality works well with bonuses.
The game uses 5 reels which are each 3 symbols high and comes with 10 lines. Which will increase during free spins.
Besides low paying card symbols you will also find medium to high paying objects, like a newspaper and clock. But of course also Dr. Jekyll. Scatter symbols, which come as the potion, appear on all reels. Wild symbols are also possible, but only because of a feature, explained below.
Potion of Madness comes with a maximum payout of 6.000 times your bet and is a medium volatile slot game.
Features
Potion of Madness comes with three different features, which are all connected to scatters and Dr. Jekyll.
Transformation
When one scatter symbol appears, all Dr. Jekyll symbols will become Mr. Hyde symbols, which act as wilds.
Re-spin
When two scatter symbols appear and at least one Dr. Jekyll symbol, they will turn into Mr. Hyde wilds and you are awarded a free re-spin where all Mr. Hyde symbols become sticky wilds. As long as new Mr. Hyde wilds appear, you are awarded with another re-spin. Re-spins end when no new Mr. Hyde wilds appear. You are awarded between each spin.
Free Spins Feature
Three scatter symbols will award 5 free spins. During free spins the reels grow to 6 symbols high and you are now playing with 40 lines instead of 10.
Scatter symbols don’t appear during free spins. And Dr. Jekyll symbols are now all Mr. Hyde wilds. And as soon as one or more land, you will get a re-spin, which works just as above.
You can’t win extra free spins.
Verdict
To be honest, the game doesn’t really show off Dr. Jekyll a lot, seems to more pointed at Mr. Hyde.
But the features are decent. The transformation happens a lot, which does get a bit annoying after a while, since most of the time, you only get one wild, somewhere on screen.
The re-spins are a bit better if you manage to land enough wilds. And free spins feels the same. You really do need those wild to get some good wins.
Most of the times, the wins are very tame.
Overall the game is OK, but I think it could have been a little more interesting.
