How to Play Magic Tales

This fanasy themed slot [sic] is not tricky to play but it is handy to know where to find the settings you need:

1. The spin button is a very standard circle with a double arrow motif.
2. Next to this is a heart symbol which opens a range of settings. There is a hare that will allow you to activate the game’s turbo mode, a money bag leading to the paytable, a written sheet symbol that will guide you to more information about the game, and a time symbol that will display your playing history.
3. On the other side of the spin tab is the autoplay button. Click on this if you want the reels to spin automatically. You will have to choose how many games you want to play without intervention. The choices are: 50, 100, 200, 300.
4. Use the plus and minus arrow to change the denomination you want to play with. You can go from 0.01 to 0.25 per spin.
5. You also get to choose the betting level you want to play at. Use the plus and minus symbols to go from level one to level 20.

Magic Tales Review

Magic Tales is not the best-looking fantasy-themed game out there but it is not too bad on the design-front. The fact is that many of these types of games excel when it comes to animations and fancy visuals, and this slot is fairly run-of-the-mill. That may not be a problem for you, however, if the action on the reels is more important than how attractive a slot looks or how many visual additions the designers have chosen to include. It always feels like a cop out when the reels are filled with standard playing card symbols but, again, whether this bothers you will boil down to personal taste.

All of these little extras may pale into insignificance if you enjoy the spinning action of the game, and there should be no shortage of interest and excitement thanks to the betting range and number of bonus features on offer. The whack-a-mole-style bonus game is an interesting addition and we always like a slot that offers plenty of free spinning action, especially when there are multipliers to boost the winning potential even more. Overall, this is an OK-looking game with plenty of interesting features to keep you entertained. Give it a try and see if it really is a good fit for you.
