Quickspin Aim to Cast Spell of Success with Wild Cauldron Video Slot

What ingredients does it take to build a successful video slot? A few drops of blood, one eye of newt, a sprinkle of mustard seeds and a couple of fairy wings? Don’t be stupid! We all know that sorcery is not involved with the creation of such entertaining things. Or is it?

Quickspin invite you to try your hand at potion making in their Wild Cauldron slot. However, first things first; you’ll need to understand the basics. Try not to be spellbound when entering the witch’s lair or you may just find yourself being turned into a frog.

Try not to be alarmed by the green ooze bubbling away in the black pot – it’s the only ingredient needed to unleash playful monsters, exciting bonus features and high volatility fun.

Tons of thrilling features are promised within the colourful reel engine, like a fresh tumble mechanic; this is a fancy take on Big Time Gaming’s (BTG’s) Megaways feature. But unlike their 6-reel, 117,649 ways to win counterpart, when a win is triggered with this one, a fascinating chain of events take hold.

All winnings symbols…

…will remain firmly intact on the reels when a win is triggered. All remaining non-winning symbols will be removed. A re-spin is granted and should more winning symbols land, the process continues!

How Intriguing – Is There More?

It’s not how to win, it’s when you’ll win with this one and if you’re lucky, and the winning symbols keep on coming, you could find yourself with an expanded reel set. The more wins that flow, the higher those symbols stack, so, in essence, you will go from a standard 6×4 grid with 4096 bet ways to a staggering 8×6 grid with a phenomenal 262,144 bet ways. Oh, and the creators have stated that you could win a phenomenal sum of up to 21,000x your stake!

Travis Grabau, the producer behind the Quickspin software, reveals the inspiration for their slot machine: “We wanted to create a game for the kind of players who are well acquainted with tumbling reel mechanics. And we also wanted to combine these game mechanics with something fun and colourful.

So, we came up with the idea to use a witch’s ‘workshop’ for the theme, a warm and inviting place filled with magic. The symbols consist of playful – and slightly mischievous – ‘squishy’ monsters, magic spells, and different kinds of artefacts.

We’ve also added a new and unique feature to the game. A traditional avalanche game will blow out all the winning symbols and keep the non-winning ones, whereas this game does the opposite – it keeps the winning symbols and removes the non-winning ones. This will give the player a completely new experience, where they get to watch a regular win build up to become a potentially really big win.

When it came to the art style, we wanted it to be quite stylized. We gathered our visual inspiration from pictures of cosy cottages, warm lighting, wonky walls, and an overall cosy ambiance. The mood board looked a lot like the ‘Lord of the Rings’ films, and the end result really reflects this.

I’m really happy with this game and the team has done an amazing job with it, combining exciting game mechanics with a really fun and beautiful theme. Wild Cauldron is a great addition to our portfolio, diversifying the Quickspin universe even further!”
