Gameplay and Mechanics
The slot’s foundation rests on two powerful features: the Respin Counter and the Multiplier Collection. Low-paying symbols keep the reels alive by storing respin chances, while premium icons such as Hansel, Gretel, and the Witch steadily push multipliers upward.
Landing three or more potion scatters takes players into the Free Spins round, starting with eight spins, a doubled multiplier, and fresh respin potential. During this feature, sets of four low-paying icons award additional respins, and four premium symbols double the multiplier again. Wins are always tied to the current multiplier, intensifying the thrill of every spin.
Visuals and Theme
PG Soft has designed the slot with a dark yet magical atmosphere. The reels are surrounded by enchanted forests and glowing effects, while the bubbling cauldron Wild and potion scatters tie perfectly into the witch’s lair. The game’s visuals and soundscapes immerse players in the tale, striking a balance between charm and eerie suspense.
Developer’s Take
A PG Soft spokesperson described the launch as a way to “bring a timeless fairytale to life with striking visuals and mysterious effects,” highlighting the collapse-style mechanic as key to delivering dynamic play.
