Just take a deep breath, exhale and spin the bubbles on the reels as if you’re in a fairy-tale; you never know what will fall from the tree.
In this magical woodland, there are 243 unpredictable paths to win, and you’ll encounter lovely elves, bow-legged bugs, shiny sunflowers and other surprising symbols, enchanting you with their elegance. Unfortunately, there are no Free Spins, but you’ll get a chance to pick a beautiful bouquet full of cash prizes.
With its Medium Volatility and RTP of 95.33%, the Mystique Grove slot machine is certainly delightful for a session or two.
Personal testers’ opinion about Mystique Grove slot
Even though this Microgaming/Genesis production is not the most tempting machine, there is a good chance it can arise your interest once you try it in the DEMO variant. Of course, if it can keep it for long – that is another question. Evidently, the theoretical RTP that the developer used in the game-making feels low nowadays, but that doesn’t automatically imply that you cannot win good prizes here.
However, there are several favourable sides to this grove and several disadvantages, of course.
- The stats about the hit frequency and bonus occurrence are the good news here. They show that you will have countless wins (almost 42% of all spins), and you don’t have to wait too long for the bonus round (after every 62nd spin is expected one bonus).
- On the flip side are the figures from the paytable (the Wild carries no value, the Scatter – logo and the blond Elfin are decently paid, but all other symbols should’ve been provided with a much better price tag). And then there are the missing Free Spins. Without them, the slot is ‘shortfalling’ a good thrill and anticipation, along with lacking the usual lucrative add-ups – multipliers, extra Wilds functions, re-triggers and such, working in favour of the player.
- You might end up with some sound cash if you are lucky and the machine is hot, but low RTP and being stripped of Free Spins works against the game’s popularity (so it will be cold in most cases). Furthermore, it cannot compete with the other more profitable slots, having the same elves/artistic theme, showing off with multiple bonus rounds.
Even with the support of the mid-lucrative bonus rounds, the game doesn’t keep the balance well. Therefore we give negative recommendations to the bonus hunters. As for the games with real deposits – a large increase of the bankroll is unlikely here, but if you are satisfied with modest payouts, then you can try your chances at some big Microgaming casino.
