Play Triple Magic for Free

Microgaming is one of the slot machine world's most recognisable names. The reason for that is because the software company has a huge portfolio of slot machines to offer to spinners, from epic 5-reel video slots to simple 3-reel classics. Unquestionably, Triple Magic falls into the latter of those categories, boasting some effortlessly straightforward spins and timelessly retro symbols for spinners of a classic persuasion to enjoy.

Admittedly, this does mean that the game suffers somewhat on the aesthetic front; the symbols are all depicted by basic two-dimensional illustrations and the colour scheme is quite uninspired, using bold primary colours such as blue, red and yellow. It's not exactly quiet and understated, and many punters might find the game a bit to brash and loud on the eyes. Nevertheless, the game features some popular reel symbols, including cherries, single BARs, double BARs, Triple BARs and big red 7s – just for that extra bit of luck factor.

This slot machine is just as simple and straightforward in the bonus gameplay department as it is on the design front. That is because the game doesn't really offer anything too spectacular in terms of special features; there are no free spins and no extra side games to break up the spinning action. However, while many players might see this as a downfall, there will be plenty of punters who are after a game that is offers exactly what Triple Magic offers – no-nonsense spins.

There is one special symbol, of sorts, and it comes in the form of a blue star icon that is depicted enshrouded in electrifying lightning bolts. This symbol doesn't do anything too fancy but it will act as a wild icon which substitutes for all other symbols in the game. Therefore, players can hope to get a bit of a helping hand to complete those all-important line wins. What's more, if one star is involved in making a win, the normal prize value will be multiplied by 3x. If two stars are present in a win, the normal prize is multiplied by 9x.

With only 1 payline in the game, those big prize paying line wins won't come around with every spin. However, players can expect a decent amount of small wins in Triple Magic owing to the fact that prizes are paid for one single cherry icon, two cherry icons, and for a mixture of different BAR symbols.

All prizes are paid in relation to the value of players' chosen line bet, which ranges from 0.10 credits to 10.00 credits. So, if one single cherry appears on the game's only payline, then spinners will receive a prize that is worth 2x the value of the bet. Any combination of three BAR icons will pay prizes that are worth 3x while two cherries in any position on the payline will go for 5x. After that, the payout values start to rise quite rapidly, with three single BARs paying 10x, three cherries going for 20x, three double BARs fetching 25x, three triple BARs awarding 50x and three lucky 7s offering 100x. The biggest win of all in Triple Magic, however, is offered by the electric star symbol because three of those in a row on the payline will multiply the bet by 800x.

So, with a maximum line bet of 10 credits in place, players can reasonably hope to spin up a top jackpot in Triple Magic that is worth 8,000 credits. That's not a bad return at all for such a simple game.

If you are after something bold and bright on the visual front yet simple and hassle-free when it comes to gameplay, then we would recommend trying out Triple Magic by Microgaming. The 3-reel slot is as basic as they come, with just 1 payline and no overly confusing extra features or gimmicks such as nudge or hold buttons. In fact, the only extra bonus element in the game requires no reel participation from the play, because it comes in the form of a simple wild star icon that will offer big bonus boosts by creating wins and offering multiplied payouts worth up to 9x the normal paytable value.
