Gold Magic - Review, Demo Play, Payout, Free Spins & Bonuses

Introduction

We’re used to KA Gaming free play slots drawing on Asian themes, since KA Gaming is a Taiwanese company whose first important market was an Asian one. However, sometimes they stray from their home territory in games like KA's Secret of Ocean slot and Charlotte’s Web. Good Magic belongs in this latter category and it is one of the many free play slots available at Slots Temple, on KA’s own site and elsewhere.

Gold Magic has a 5-reel, 3-column grid with 25 fixed pay lines. The minimum bet size is 0.25 and the maximum is 125. There are 10 regular symbols, a rabbit in a hat, an escape box, a knife-throwing target, a dove, and a rose, plus the top five playing cards. The scatter is the magician himself.

Theme, Graphics and Soundtrack

There’s an attractive overall look to Gold Magic, which appears to be set in an outdoor theatre on a starry night with lights strung across the streets. On the proscenium stage is the grid with all the necessities of the traditional magic show among the symbols. The illustrations and animation are perfectly acceptable and the soundtrack is a simple, relaxed jazz guitar background, interrupted by a slightly jarring jingle whenever you land a win. 

Gold Magic RTP and Variance

How to Play Gold Magic

Before you start the game, take a moment to familiarise yourself with the game set-up, controls and functions with our simple guide:

1. Click the play button to set the reels spinning at the current total bet level. You can also press the space bar to start playing.
2. Press the spin/stop button again to stop the reels at any time during the spin. You can also use the space bar to stop the reels.
3. Click the new bet button to set the bet level from 0.25 to 125.00.
4. Alternatively, you can click max bet to reset the bet to highest possible level.
5. Click and hold the spin button to bring up the autoplay menu. Here you can set the number of spins from 25 to infinity. Throughout autoplay, the button will show the number of auto spins which remain. Press the button again to exit auto play at any time.
6. The balance meter to the bottom right of the screen displays your current balance which is constantly updated during the game.
7. All symbols except scatter pay left to right on active paylines. Only the highest win per payline is paid out. All wins except scatter are multiplied by the per-line bet. Any scatter wins are multiplied by the total bet.
8. The wild substitutes for all symbols except the scatter. Three or more scatter symbols landing anywhere on the reels will trigger 3 free games.

Gold Magic Review: Our Verdict

This is a fairly uncomplicated game from KA which includes all the basic elements of an online slot, but unfortunately doesn’t do a great deal with them. It’s the kind of game that would be very useful for someone who is new to online slots but the lack of variety and interesting extras may put off anyone who plays regularly. There’s nothing wrong with it, there just isn’t very much of it.
