Potion Payday is a magic-themed video slot by High 5 Games. The game uses a 7x7 grid and Clusterbucks mechanics, another term for famous Cluster Pays. While playing the game, you will enjoy its stunning graphics and multiple bonus features, including free spins and the Racking Up Riches feature. But, first, let’s take a look at the High5Games title, which pays up to 60,000 coins.
Once you enter the game, you will find yourself in a laboratory with books, pots and other tools to make magic potions in the backdrop. The cartoon-like graphics are rendered impeccably with seamless transitions and fluid animations. A captivating music score adds to the immersive gaming experience the slot provides. The reels are home to high-paying bottles of potion and low-value gem icons. The game also features several special symbols we will explain later in the review.
If you want to try your luck at making magic potions, you have to wager at least $0.20 per spin. The maximum wager allowed is $400, making the game perfect for high-rollers. If you wish, you can activate up to 100 autospins and make them stop when you reach the loss limit you have previously set or when the bonus feature activates. Create a cluster of 4 or more identical icons, and you are getting paid.
As for bonus features, there is a lot going on in the Potion Payday slot. First, whenever you land a winning combo, successful icons will disappear and a respin is awarded thanks to cascading reels.
Then, we have the Bonus symbol appearing in the bottom right and left corner and the top right and left corner of the grid. Represented as a cauldron with the blue potion, the Bonus symbol is in charge of triggering free spins. You need 3 or 4 of these to activate 8 or 30 free games. Within the feature, up to 3 matching icons appear in clusters on the reels before other icons land, which increases the chances of creating winning clusters.
In the base and bonus game, you can benefit from the Racking Up Riches feature. Keep an eye on wooden-framed icons, including cat eyes, petals, mushrooms, leaves and pink, purple, green and yellow stones. They can show up on the reels in adjacent positions, vertically or horizontally and collapse to occupy as few positions as possible. If you land 4 of a kind, they will be combined into a single position, turning into respective regular icons to help you create a winning cluster.
The Racking Up Riches feature is a bit complicated, but you will figure it out quickly. It is pretty innovative; we have to admit. As for the rest of the gameplay, Potion Payday is an entertaining addition to the High5Games portfolio, thanks to its appearance and features. However, it features no Wilds. This is a medium volatility game that can be played by newbies and seasoned players who are not looking for massive payouts. Its RTP is standard, sitting at 96%.
