Alchemy (Storm Gaming) Slot - Demo, Free Play, No Registration -

Introduction

Alchemy from Storm Gaming looks at the ancient traditions of alchemists who aimed to “take something ordinary and create something better.” Has Storm fulfilled that promise with this release? Or is it simply a case of more alchemy training required? Firstly, it’s a slot based around free spins, so that is something we can all get on board with. Expanding wilds and symbol upgrades are also part of the gameplay, so there is some promise for Alchemy, the online slot.

Theme, Graphics & Soundtrack

We have placed Alchemy in our Science slot theme category. While there is an element of magic to the game design, this game is all about the ancient traditions of those first scientists who dreamed big but still had very little to work with. The game leaves you with a similar feeling in terms of graphics.

There is little to get you excited, with a static backdrop of an ancient scroll and some basic-looking symbols. The expanding wild lions give the slot some energy, while the big wins will throw coins across the screen. A mystical but rather lowkey soundtrack finishes off a lacklustre presence.

Alchemy RTP & Volatility

Alchemy has an RTP of 95.41%, so it sits under the casino average of all our online slots available to play at Slots Temple. Storm Gaming has set the volatility to medium, so expect more balanced gameplay in terms of the payout sizes.

Alchemy Free Spins & Expanding Wilds

The sun scatter symbol leads the path to the free spin feature. You’ll find this scatter across all five reels, with the bonus game activating once you land three or more of them anywhere. You’ll get an instant multiplier prize, access to ten free spins and the chance to retrigger free spins if you land enough sun scatters.

• The green lion wild expands every time it lands throughout the game.
• The wild also has a few other tricks up its sleeve each time it lands during the free spins:
  • It expands across the whole reel.
  • It adds one free spin to your free spin counter.
  • It removes one low-value symbol from the reels.

Our Verdict

Storm Gaming’s attempt at the world of alchemy leaves us wanting more. Alchemy itself is a mysterious world of complex rituals, and that alone should have been enough inspiration to create an engaging science-themed game. But Alchemy the slot is more ‘apprentice’ than ‘master’ alchemist.

You get free spins, expanding wilds, and symbol upgrades, but most of that comes in the bonus game. The fact the expanding wilds also come into play during the base game is some consolation, but we feel that it’s not enough to save Storm Gaming from what may be a short career in alchemy.

You may find some ‘magic’ when playing, but it’s not going to inspire you to hang around for long. Still, we’ve got the demo right here if you fancy a spin on Alchemy from Storm Gaming.
