Pixie Wishes Slot
Nature, magic, and simple cuteness have all found their ways into lots of different slot machines. So why not combine all of those into one delightful package? That may have been the genesis of Pixie Wishes, a recent slot machine released by Aristocrat. Combining the natural and vibrant colors of a forest meadow with the magic of fairies, this is an engaging and stimulating machine that has plenty of surprises in store.
Magic of the Forest
The Pixie Wishes Slot machine is a five-reel game with a variable amount of lines: you can find versions that offer up anything from 30 to 50 lines, with required pays of 50 to 70 credits (each of which typically costs a penny each). The game is housed in a new type of cabinet known as Helix: you’ll see a bank of several machines typically lined up together at the casino, with a large LCD screen above the bank that displays images and information to the players as a group.
The object of the game is fairly standard: you’ll be matching symbols from left to right across the reels. Symbols include woodland creatures, coins, wishing wells, and fairies. There are also wilds and multipliers that have the potential to increase your winnings on any spin by up to 10x the normal amount.
Random Progressives Offer Big Rewards
Perhaps the easiest way to quickly earn yourself a major prize in this game is to claim one of the game’s four progressive jackpots. However, there’s no way to cause these to be awarded; instead, there is a random chance at the end of each spin that this feature will be triggered.
One of the things we like about this progressive system is that there aren’t any truly insignificant prizes: you won’t win $2.50 for hitting the “tiny jackpot” or anything like that. Instead, even the “Mini” starts with a $30 prize, while the Grand Jackpot begins at $5,000 – and all of these rise as people in your machine bank place, meaning that you’ll always feel like you’ve at least won many times the cost of your latest spin.
That’s not the only special feature, either. All of the mini-games and bonuses in this slot are fully animated and feature high-definition video, making them very engaging and part of an overall visual experience that does a great job at augmenting the gameplay.
A Dash of Magic Makes for Lasting Fun
While Pixie Wishes largely plays like a pretty typical slot machine, the mixture of the fantastic theme, eye-catching visuals and the large progressive prizes is enough to ensure that most players will have a great time while playing this title. If we had to guess, we’d say that more casual slots fans are the true target for this game, since the visuals are the focus as much as the gameplay or potential winnings. At the same time, there’s enough going on to keep even more serious players entertained, which means this is a machine that’s worth taking a look at no matter what kind of games generally appeal to you.
